5.00Olivia was our guide and was very informative. She gave us a lot of interesting information on our way to and from Matka Canyon. Matko canyon and the caves are beautiful and not to be missed. Olivia also gave us a lot of information on the Macedonian ruby when we were in Etno village.

5.00This was the perfect half-day trip to escape the city and experience some of the beautiful nature around Skopje. Matka Canyon was stunning, and the cave visit was a real highlight. Our guide, Igor, was fantastic-friendly, knowledgeable, and made the whole trip both informative and entertaining. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone who doesn’t have a lot of time but still wants to see some interesting and beautiful places outside the city.
Boat trip and souvenirs.

2.00We depart as a group of about 20 people from the National Museum. A fairly new minibus. The guide Naser, having worked many years in England, speaks a bit of slang English, and it was not easy to understand him, at least for us foreigners. First of all, I do not understand why they include the Millennium in the program when it has not been accessible for some time; I do not know why. You can only see the ethnic village, which I thought was original and reconstructed, but instead, it has only been newly built in recent years and hosts only souvenir shops, so it is of little interest to me. However, you can see a beautiful Orthodox church a little further away. Then the highlight is the boat trip with ten people along the canyon. You pay about 8 euros in advance, I believe, for the preservation of Nature and for the boat tour. The canyon is nice, but nothing special compared to others I have seen... You stop to eat at a restaurant by the shore and then return to Skopje with a journey of about 20 km.
Excursion to Matka with guide Igor Pavleski

5.00We chose the half-day trip to Canyon Matka with Skopje Daily Tours and it turned out to be a fabulous experience -- not because the drive was easy or the place was beautiful -- but because our guide Igor Pavleski made the six hours together seem like time spent with a friend, discussing Skopje and North Macedonia's social, cultural, economic and political affairs. Igor is intelligent, perceptive and well-informed, and he helped us understand the region better. If North Macedonia is gaining recognition as an international destination, it's people like Igor who're making it happen. As for the canyon itself, it's pretty and the walking trail is a delight. The Vrelo Caves are worthy of a visit; though the stalagmites and stalactites aren't huge, the strategic lighting is a bonus.
Great experience

5.00This was a 5* experience. Our tour guide was fantastic and as a native Macedonian had a lot of knowledge about the country’s history, architecture and way of life. She answered all of our questions about where we were and was very passionate about her job. The tour itself was full of the best bits outside of Skopje city and we all had a great time! Thank you very much!!

4.00The tour was very nice and I am glad I went. The village isn't much of a village, just a museum, restaurant and a couple of shops. Had rain otherwise would have loved more time at the canyon. Overall, good experience!

5.00A 6 hour tour /day out. Tge time passed quickly with enough time to relax and view the village snd other sites. The additional charge to go to the caves was slso worth it. Special thanks to Gmni and Rameriz (our driver).
