Overview

A partially self-guided or fully guided 9 day bike tour in North Macedonia. Macedonia is described as one of Europe’s last undiscovered areas, with idyllic natural surroundings, Orthodox monasteries and churches dating back over a thousand years. Ohrid and the lake, both UNESCO-protected, are highlighted as a major attraction. The tour involves cycling through largely unspoiled nature and offers a glimpse into the country's rich history, great food, world-renowned wine, and friendly people.
