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.

    Rendezvous point is at the entrance of the Ristich Palace, nextdoor to Bocata Cafe, just 20 meters from the Alexander the Great Fountain at the Central Square. To identify me, I'll be wearing a blue ID card issued by the Macedonian Tour Guides Association.

The free tour with Alexander was a unique and enriching experience. His passion for the history and culture of the city kept us captivated throughout the tour. With his ability to connect historical facts with the places we visited, we were amazed and interested. He also included amusing and surprising anecdotes that made the tour more enjoyable. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone who wants to learn more about the history and culture of the city. Thank you Alexander for an unforgettable experience.

One of the best free tours we have ever done through the world. Aleksandar is passionate about sharing the history and the little tricks of his city. So much information about the past of the city and country, the latest projects, and he packed a lot in the time we were together so we felt the tour was really complete. We have done the last tour in the day, in March, which I recommend as the lights are beautiful over the city. Highly recommended !
