North Macedonia (Macedonia) Tours & Holidays

Craggy mountain backdrops, time-weathered monasteries, stunning lake panoramas and a hearty national cuisine – mix it up in North Macedonia.

History buffs can get lost in hundreds of Byzantine buildings and Roman ruins, foodies can gorge on tasty mezze, cheeses, stews and meats (and wash it down with potent rakija), and wannabe wine critics can swish and swirl their way through North Macedonia’s finest drops. Then there’s the great outdoors. Endless green pastures, rugged peaks and glacier lakes at every turn, perfect for thrill-seekers at every level. Discover this often-overlooked Balkan gem for yourself.

This trip was truly magical. Our leader, Alek, was great and showed us so much of Macedonian culture. The trip has everything you could want, some outdoor elements, history, and food! You will not go hungry on this trip and you will leave counting the days until your next dose of tavče gravče.

You will not go hungry on this trip! The volume and variety makes every meal an experience, and the way that the trip supports small operators, agro-tourism and slow food principles is commendable . Even with a focus on food, the itinerary is wonderfully varied. One of the highlights for me was the visit to the Gracanica Church in Kosovo. Alek is a fantastic tour leader of this less visited part of Europe. Highly recommended.

The Balkans Real Food Adventure

Saskia · Traveled September 2022
A fun-filled trip with lots of amazing local food and drink experiences, beautiful old towns and great scenery. I particularly enjoyed being invited into people's homes and small businesses; people welcomed us like guests and I never felt I was just another tourist. We got to taste the local specialities in each place, and were treated to local or home-made rakija and wine everywhere. Some of my favorite experiences were going to an olive farm, going to an apiary and then the beekeeper's house for lunch, joining a celebration in a small village in Macedonia, and wine tasting at two micro-wineries.
