Struga City and Independent Vevchani Guided Tour with Pickup

4.2/5
4 reviews

When spoken about Struga, people often refer to it as the North Macedonian city of poetry and bridges, due to the fact that the largest poetry gathering of the world is held here. Known as the Struga Poetry Evenings, whose laureates have included several Nobel Prizes for Literature winners.

In the heart of the city of Struga, our first stop will be at the local market. Here you can taste different products which are produced in the gardens of the local residents. After visiting the formation of the river and the city centre, enter the Nezlobinski Museum, where you behold a unique representation of the flora and fauna heritage of the whole Ohrid region. Before leaving Struga, you'll visit the Brother’s Miladinovci memorial house. The journey continues to the self-proclaimed independent region of Vevchani. Where you will learn the truth behind these people and their reasons to proclaim themselves independent. At first, you'll cool down at the colourful springs of Vevchani, where the water flows fresh from the mountains. This water quenches the thirst of thousands of people and is drinkable at the springs. After, you'll have free time to explore this idyllic and proud village or/ and taste a local meal in the famous restaurant of Kutmichevica while enjoying the view of the village and valley.

    The tour was interesting however there was too much much walking especially in the village. The vehicle did not take us up to the restaurant and it was a tough walk up the hill. The service in the restaurant was very poor and because of a mix up and delays I ended up without a meal, very disappointed. I would also suggest that in the explanation before booking it should be mentioned that there is a lot of walking and therefore not suitable for people with limited ability.

    Vevchani en de bronnen hebben onze dag gemaakt! Een authentiek dorpje met prachtige route langs de bronnen en watervallen. En een lekkere lunch bij een gezellig restaurant met een prachtig uitzicht. Struga viel helaas tegen, er was een hardloopevenement en daardoor was de rest van de stad uitgestorven waaronder de markt. Het museum met flora en fauna had voor ons echt niet gehoeven... We vonden het vreselijk. De gids deed het goed, gaf veel informatie en lette goed of iedereen aanwezig was.

    The tour guide was fantastic ( I think his name was Teofan). He was so knowledgeable and passionate about the places and cultures he told us about. He was very friendly and advised us the best places for coffee. He made what was a good trip to an outstanding trip.
