North Macedonia Multisport Tour

Welcome to North Macedonia! Your guide will meet you at the airport, and you’ll be transferred to Ohrid to settle into your hotel. Spend the afternoon on a guided walking tour of this UNESCO-protected lakeside city. Visit the old centre and walk up to viewpoints that offer stunning views of Lake Ohrid. Have dinner with your group trying your first tastes of North Macedonian cuisine—try some lake fish dishes! Rest up in your hotel for a big week of adventure ahead.

Enjoy a traditional North Macedonian breakfast, hop in your private transfer to Velestovo, and begin a lovely hike through the old villages around Lake Ohrid. You’ll get acquainted with the area, walking through abandoned stone houses, engaging with locals, and never tiring Lake Ohrid’s views. Once you reach Elsani, you’ll meet a lovely family who will offer a cooking class. Return to Ohrid or stay the night in Elsani.

After breakfast, you’ll leave directly from your accommodation and get in either a Jeep or an ATV for a tour through Galichica National Park. Ride through the wild terrain of low shrubbery and rocks and into higher altitudes with hidden lakes among the mountains. Stop for a traditional lunch in Asangjura, where you'll taste local products like cheese, wine, and the local spirit rakija, a potent brandy derived from fermented fruit. After lunch, head back on the motor vehicles and expect some epic lake views—you’ll see Lake Ohrid and neighbouring Lake Prespa, which straddles North Macedonia, Albania, and Greece. The Jeep/ATV tour will end at the St. Naum Monastery complex to wander its ancient walls and peek at lake views through the old stone windows. The afternoon will be spent in a boat navigating the waters of the Black Drim River, visiting the natural springs en route. Return to Ohrid for dinner and rest.

In the morning after breakfast, the group will pack up and head out into the wild. You’ll spend the next two nights camping away from civilization and technology. Disconnect and recharge! Your guide and captain will bring you to a private beach to set up your camp. Around sunset, take the boat into the lake and cast your nets in the pristine waters. The evening is yours to enjoy the serenity of your surroundings. Swim under the stars, and huddle around a fire with your crew. Take a moment to connect with nature during this unique time away from your busy life.

Get an early start waking up with the sun and head out with your captain to check the fishnets you cast the night before. With any luck, you caught a decent haul. Return to the campsite and learn the process of cleaning and preparing the fish to cook a traditional fish stew—help out, if you want! After a non-fish breakfast, rent a kayak to explore Lake Ohrid at your own speed. When you return for a freshly-caught fish dinner, crack open some local wine and rakija and party around the campfire under the stars for your final night in this isolated camping spot. What happens here, stays here!

Break down the campsite after breakfast and sail toward Ohrid. On the way, you’ll stop at the Amfora Diving Centre. Explore the underwater world of Lake Ohrid with your guide and your crew. If you want to stay above water, you can learn about the history of the area from the locals. Continue to Ohrid to make some lasting memories with a traditional North Macedonian night with your group.

Enjoy a final breakfast with your multisport crew chatting about your favourite memories from the past week. You’ll receive a transfer to Skopje Airport according to your flight time.
