The knowledgeable guide Nikos and the organizaton from Ammon Express was excellent. It was very interesting to visit arheological sites and found out about Pella and Vergina. I would recommend this trip to everyone that has this kind of interests.

This tour was a really convenient way to see the Macedonian sites of Vergina and Pella. Both places are very impressive and have great museums. The tour guide was lovely, the bus was comfortable, and we were able to explore the sites at own pace.

I enjoyed the organisation and the sites very much. It was perfect timing and very enjoyable. The bus was waiting for us at the pick up point and so we didnt have to wait. It was a wonderful day
Great small group tour

Disappointing trip

The tour guide was very poor. Never accompanied us at any location, although we found all groups with an accompaning guide. Went on repeating endlessly how time was short so he cannot join us at the sites or museums. Told us to save time he will explain the things in the bus...but never did. Forced upon us a long political discourse on how bad is North Macedonia. We are touring and political lectures are completely unacceptable and the tour bus is not the place for it!!!
Excellent trip with detailed explanation

Ganz nah an Europas alter Geschichte

Die Tour ist optimal, um sich mit der Geschichte Mazedoniens bekannt zu machen. Der Tourbegleiter Niko ist sehr kompetent und versteht es, Geschichte erlebbar zu machen. Die Strukturen des alten Pella in der Ausgrabungsstätte wurden sehr gut und verständlich erklärt. Im Museum war genug Zeit, die Fundstücke zu bewundern. Es folgte eine sehr schöne Fahrt durch die landwirtschaftlich genutzt Ebene bis nach Vergina, wo wir uns die beeindruckenden Gräber der mazedonischen Könige ansahen. Einen wunderschönen Abschluss bildete der Besuch des alten Theaters, in dem Philipp II. ermordet wurde. Uns wurde klar, dass wir uns an einem für die Entwicklung Europas hochwichtigen Platz befanden. So nah an der Geschichte. Unser Begleiter konnte das sehr schön vermitteln.
Oud Macedonië.

We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.

Sorting, ranking, and search results
Viator wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That’s why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.
On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You’ll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.
You’ll see some experiences with a “Promoted” badge, which means that the operators of those experiences have agreed to pay Viator more to have their experience highlighted.
If you see an Experience Award Winner label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Viator over a 12-month period.
The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We’re always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
