Guide met me at my hotel at time convenient to me, which was 3 hours after planned starting time. So kudos for flexibilit6y. Did not stint on the time for the tour and we walked all over the town stopping at key sites along the way. Even walked to the new theological university under construction and to the fabulously situated St. John Kaneo. If I had been on time, we would have also stropped at Holy Mary Peribleptos and the Icon Museum which are not on the usual walking tour, but incredibly special places not to be missed.

Ohrid ist absolut zu Recht Unesco Welterbestätte. Die Altstadt schmiegt sich andie Hänger einer kleinen Halbinsel. Die vielen Gassen und alten Häuser sind so pittoresk. Einfach ein tolles Flair, kleine Läden und Restaurants, fast etwas verwunschen. Die Festung ermöglicht einen grandiosen Blick über den See.Besonders schön wirkt die Altstadt vom Wasser aus, eine Schiffsrundfahrt ist empfehlenswert. Von hier aus hat man auch einen tollen Blick auf die bekannte Sehenswürdigkeit - die Kirche des heiligen Johann von Kaneo. Diese kann man von der Altstadt über einen Holzsteg über das Wasser des Sees erreichen. Dieser Steg ist ebenfalls toll und ergibt tolle Bilder vom Stand und See.
