Overview of your Korca tour

Would you like to feel precisely at the center of the Balkans? Where Albanian, Greek, and North Macedonian border meets! Would you like to visit the freshest water in Europe? Would you live to visit the great biodiversity and ecosystem of this Park? I am very touched by Prespa. My mum was born in Prespa, and my grannies used to live there. As a child, I spend the summer holidays there. So I love to talk about its natural beauty. Prespa Lake contains two lakes, Great Prespa Lake and Small Prespa Lake; and it is one of the most ancient lakes in the world. It represents the natural beauty and during our visit, to Great Prespa, we will go to Maligrad island to visit St. Mary Church, a holy place that is one of the oldest buildings in the Korca region. Milgard is a Macedonian word and it means a small city. The Locals there belong to the North Macedonian minority. They are very friendly, hospitable and represent the coexistence of Albanian and North Macedonian customs. You will have the experience of your life!
