Full description

Meet your guide and embark on a 2-hour scenic drive. Admire the changing landscapes on the way, to the Serbian border. After crossing the border you will go the nearby town of Bosilegrad (the former Yugoslavia's main state) before you cross back over the border with Bulgaria and head for Northern Macedonia. After another short drive, you will arrive at the beautiful Monastery of Osogovo – an incredibly powerful place in the hills from the 12th Century, which was later turned into a mosque by the Ottomans, and then again converted into a church. This place is very scenic and peaceful - take time to go for a walk around the area. Afterwards, you will have lunch in a nice restaurant with good Macedonian grill (meat or fish) and Skopsko beer, of course.

The tour guide was very patient and informative during the trip. The road conditions in Serbia and Macedonia is not as good as in Bulgaria. However, he skillfully drove through some barely passable lane. Overall a good trip if you want to see the border town of the two countries and visit churces near the border town.

Excursión diferente y recomendable. Nuestrl conductor/guía fue Ivan. Un gran profesional. Gran nivel de inglés, amable, atento y con sentido del humor. Durante todo el tour nos contó muchas cosas interesantes sobre la zona. El almuerzo en Osogovo fue excelente. Una hamburguesa demasiado rica en un lugar realmente precioso.
