    The trip itinerary was fantastic. Tour guide and driver was Vladimir, very energetic, fun, and became one of us. We enjoyed his company very much. He was flexible, and the trip was not too physically difficult. We left each morning at 9 am and got to the towns around 4 or 5 pm. Our group had only 6 people, so it was very intimate a cozy in a new van. Hotels were fantastic as well EXCEPT that 3 of them did not have working air condition during our stay (in Ochrid and two other locations), this made 3 sleeping nights miserable, especially since when you opened the window, there were loud noises all night long, so could not sleep. We reported it to George the trip organizer, and hopefully, they will check if a/c is working BEFORE each group leaves. Local guides in each city were true experts
