My name is Bojan, but people all call me Rante, so you can too. I'm a professional guide that would love to provide you with adventurous experiences, blended with magical nature landscapes, hidden cultural sites, and tasty local cuisine. Being a graduated forestry engineer, and an MSc in rural development - anthropology and sociology of the rural, I am the person to show you the world beyond the cities in Macedonia. My passion is bicycles and photography. So I can gladly take you on a bike tour to see and experience unique places. It is good to mention that my professionally related interests are protected areas, sacred natural sites, old trees, and places (what kind of meanings people associate to a place). Therefore I can show you the local's side of a place. Skopje is the town where I live, though I've been to every hidden place in Macedonia. I love Macedonia for its nature, and for its traditional cuisine. It is a place where you can experience something different (a landscape, people, culture) on every few steps you make; where villagers will not let you go without having a drink together; where food is whole ceremony of tastes and love. I am at your availability to make your visit and experience of Macedonia personal, unique and memorable. Tourist Guide License No.478 (Association of Tourist Guides of Macedonia) Master of Science in Rural Development (Ghent Univeristy, Belgium) Forestry Engineer (University of Ss Cyrilus and Methodius, Macedonia) Adventure EDU (Adventure Travel Trade Association Education Certificate) Scout Leader (Scout Association of Macedonia) I am not a driver. I can accompany you in your vehicle or I can arrange for a separate car and driver.

This tour was just as planned. Bojan went above and beyond to make sure my mom’s wheelchair would be safe during the walking. He took us to many great places and knew so much history. He was kind and caring and a great representative for the people of Macedonia. Would recommend!

Thank you for entrusting me with the wellbeing and comfort of your lovely mother and your family. I hope your whole journey went wonderful, with a lot of tasty treats and enriching your knowledge of your roots. Give my best regards to your mother.
Rante is an excellent guide — exceptionally knowledgeable about the city, its buildings, history, and the wider region. He paid great attention to our interests to personalise the tour and even arranged access to a site that is normally closed on Sundays. He also has a wonderful way of leading a group, ensuring everything runs smoothly and that even children stay engaged...

Thank you and it was an honor to be of service to you and your family.
We had a fantastic 6-hour tour of Skopje with Rante. The communication beforehand was already a positive aspect of working with him. He asked about individual interests, what else the group liked to do, why we were in Macedonia, and adapted the tour pretty much exactly to these requirements. The professional work then continued in the preparation after booking and it was...

When having such great guests on a tour is very easy to have a good and happy tour. Thank you for entrusting me with your time in Skopje.
Excellent Service! Everyone told us it could not be done. Well, with Bojan's help, our party of three did it. He was able to schedule a tour, which included highlights of North Macedonia, Kosovo, and Serbia in one day. He met us in our Skopje hotel lobby with a smile and local pastries. We set out on our journey with a walking tour of Skopje. Although not a part of the...
