Details of the Private Day Tour
Your journey begins with a pick-up from your accommodation in Skopje at 9 am, as we make our way north towards Kosovo. After approximately ninety minutes on the road, we'll arrive at Pristina, the capital and the most populous city of Kosovo.
In Pristina, our exploration will commence with a visit to the striking National Library of Kosovo. Renowned for its distinctive architecture, this building boasts 99 transparent domes and a unique metal lattice enveloping its exterior.
Adjacent to the library, we will see the Church of Christ the Savior, found within the grounds of the University of Pristina. Its construction was halted due to the Kosovo conflict. Our guided exploration continues with the notable statue of Mother Teresa, discussing its significance to both the Albanian and Kosovar communities. We will also pass by the statue of Gjergj Kastrioti, a historic figure known for his resistance against Ottoman rule and much more!
As we conclude our time in Pristina, we will visit the Carshia Mosque, the Emin Gjiku complex, the statue of Bill Clinton, and the widely recognized Hillary store, all monuments that reflect Kosovo's appreciation for the United States.
Next, we will depart from Pristina towards the Gracanica Monastery, a site recognized as a World Heritage Site. This sacred complex stands as one of the finest examples of medieval architecture in the Balkans.
Our final stop will be Prizren, often referred to as the most picturesque city in Kosovo. Highlights include the charming bridge spanning the Bistrica River and the historic Sinan Pasha Mosque. You'll also have an hour of free time for lunch at a local eatery, allowing you to savor authentic regional flavors.
We will conclude our Kosovo journey by returning you to your hotel in Skopje around 8 pm.
