This was the best experience we ever had. The Guide Guy was extremely respectful, friendly and kind. He even drove us with the boat to our hotel so we could pray a little bit and then brought us back to the city. He gave us jackets and a blanket to cuddle, it was a great time. I recommend absolutely everybody to this trip if you plan to go to ohrid this is a must-do. Ohrid is absolutely beautiful and to see it on a boat with friends or your partner is one of the best experience can do.

Nikola ist ein sehr guter und offener Guide. Er konnte viel erzählen und es gab einen sehr freundlichen Austausch. Er wirkte sehr aufgeschlossen und interessiert, sodass ein netter Dialog entstand. Wir hatten Glück, dass wir alleine in dem Zeitfenster gebucht haben und somit eine exklusive Fahrt genießen konnten. Nikola hat angeboten, irgendwo zu halten, wenn wir besondere Fotos haben wollten. Die Tour selbst und der Ausblick war sehenswert und zu empfehlen. Für weniger Geld kann man eines der Schiffe nach St.Naum nehmen, von denen man auch einen netten Blick auf die Altstadt werfen kann, sich da allerdings nicht aufhält, sondern schnell weiterfährt.

Nikola has been amazing! Due to some health problems I could easily reschedule with him and even got the boat all by myself. He knows a lot about Ohrid and its surroundings, and is happy to share all his knowledge. He has been very polite, considerate and I can only highly recommend booking a boat trip with him!
