Hidden among forested slopes above the Radika Valley, this remarkable monastery is known for its peaceful atmosphere, striking architecture, and extraordinary carved wooden iconostasis.

The tour then continues to Ohrid, often called the jewel of North Macedonia and home to one of Europe’s oldest lakes. Set on the shores of Lake Ohrid, this historic town is famous for its stone streets, Byzantine heritage, and breathtaking lakeside views. During your visit, you will discover some of Ohrid’s most important landmarks, including the Church of St. Mary Peribleptos, the Ancient Theatre of Ohrid, the archaeological site of Plaoshnik, the Church of Saints Clement and Panteleimon, Kaneo, the Church of Hagia Sophia, and Ohrid’s atmospheric old town. A walk along the lakeshore completes the experience, before you enjoy a traditional riverside lunch.
