North Macedonia: Ohrid & Struga Day Trip from Tirana

Experience the beauty of North Macedonia on a day trip from Tirana. Visit Ohrid’s UNESCO old town, admire Lake Ohrid, and explore the charming town of Struga.
Begin your adventure early in the morning with a 6:30 AM departure from Tirana. Travel comfortably in an air-conditioned tour van through the scenic Shkumbin Valley, following the route of the ancient Via Egnatia, a historic Roman road that once connected the Adriatic Sea to Byzantium.

Upon arrival in Ohrid, known in antiquity as Lychnidus — “The City of Light” — embark on a guided walking tour of the UNESCO-listed old town. Stroll through narrow cobblestone streets lined with traditional Balkan houses, visit the Ancient Theatre and the Upper Gate, and enjoy panoramic views over Lake Ohrid.

Continue downhill to the Church of St. John at Kaneo, one of the most photographed landmarks in the Balkans, perched dramatically on a cliff above the lake. Visit the Cathedral of St. Mary Perivleptos, admired for its exquisite Byzantine frescoes, before exploring the famous “Pearl Trail”, where local artisans craft Ohrid’s unique pearls.

Enjoy free time for lunch at a lakeside restaurant, sampling delicious Macedonian dishes such as tavče gravče or Ohrid trout (not included in the price).

In the afternoon, continue to Struga, a charming lakeside town where the Black Drin River flows out of Lake Ohrid. Take a relaxing stroll along the riverside promenade, grab a coffee, or simply enjoy the peaceful atmosphere. As the local saying goes, “Kako Struga, nema druga” — “There’s nothing better than Struga.”

After a short break, board the van for your return journey to Albania, arriving back in Tirana around 8:30–9:00 PM, filled with memories of North Macedonia’s timeless beauty.
