Destination: Ohrid, North Macedonia
Our one hour interactive virtual walking tour will begin in the heart of the city, at the top of the hill looking at the fortress of the Tsar Samuel from the XI century. From there, we will have the best view of one of the largest and clearest natural tectonic lakes in Europe, the lake of Ohrid. Next on the list will be the church of St. Clement, together with the archaeological excavation of the First Slavic University (which is under restoration). Next, we will walk to the oldest spot in the old city so far – the ancient theatre, from the 2nd century B.C. We will continue through the narrow streets where we will present to you the Ohrid classical architecture. Then we will take you to some of the unique workshops: woodcarving and handmade paper – an ancient artform from China dating back to the 2nd century B.C. We will close overlooking the amazing lake with breathtaking views. Come see the 3 million year old lake Ohrid!
At the end of the tour, we invite you to stay on for an exclusive 15-minute demo with a Senior Planet Technology Trainer. You’ll have an opportunity to discover a unique aspect we’ve uncovered during the tour – something special that adds an extra layer of intrigue to the North Macedonia experience. You won’t want to miss this fascinating and interactive demonstration.
