Ancient Macedonia [Bulgaria-Greece-Macedonia sights]:
This 15 day tour through Greece, Macedonia and Bulgaria starts in Sofia with superb scenery as we cross into east Macedonia and spend the night at a 12thC monastery on the slopes of the Osogovo mountains. In Skopje, the capital of Macedonia, we'll visit the fortress, Mustafa Pasha Mosque and the Old Bazaar, and perhaps an excursion to Matka Gorge.
Our route to UNESCO Site Lake Ohrid travels through Mavrovo National Park, and to St Jovan Bigorski Monastery, before winding through the spectacular Black Drim valley. We spend three nights in the ancient centre of Ohrid with a dramatic mountain backdrop encircling the waters of Lake Ohrid. Ohrid offers many attractions: Tsar Samoil's Fortress, the Roman amphitheatre for sensational panoramas, a trip on the lake, and a stroll around the Old Town's cobbled streets. Canoes and bicycles can be rented in town.
Leaving Ohrid, we cross the Livada Pass on the way through Galicica National Park and descend to the shores of Lake Prespa. After viewing impressive mosaics at the site of the ancient Macedonian town of Heraclea, we spend our last night in Macedonia in Pelister National Park.
Crossing into Greece, our first stop is Vergina and Pella, birthplace of Alexander the Great, before reaching the shores of the Aegean and the city of Thessaloniki. A boat trip along the coast of the fabled monastic retreat Mt Athos, a day trip by ferry to Thassos Island, and a visit to ancient Philippi complete our activities in northern Greece. Finally we head north back into Bulgaria to enjoy Rila Monastery and complete our circuit in Sofia.

Europe's Last Frontier:
14 days through Albania and Macedonia's isolation from Europe with outstandingly attractive coasts, mountains and lakes, remnants of past civilisations from early tribes, ancient Greeks, Romans and Ottomans and friendly, outgoing modern villages.
