As a fifth-generation Skopyan, feel very passionate about my City and would like to present it to the foreign visitors, in the best way possible. I possess extensive and in-depth knowledge about the culture, tradition and the history of Skopje, its places, people, buildings etc., which want to share with our guests and leave a good impression in order to give them a reason to come back again. Have traveled quite a bit and the idea for this Activity came during my stay in Santiago de Chile where I worked and lived.

I'm not Your average Tour Guide, no sugarcoating with me because "Honesty is the best policy".
We start at Central Square, stroll down Macedonia street to the old railway station where the earthquake museum is. Then, we cross the Vardar river and visit places in the Old Bazaar and climb mildly to the Fortress for a beautiful Vista of the City.

I went to the Skopje walking tour lead by Aleksander. It was overall very interesting and his personal style explaining all made the tour different from others that I went on before. I recommend everyone to take his tour!!

Aleksander is really experienced. Beside of city, you also learn a lot about history and the current status of Macedonia. Definitely an amazing person to meet in Skopje.
