About this tour
This short session shows Debar Maalo at the exact hour it comes to life. You see the district's bars and cafes filling as the evening begins, in a neighbourhood known specifically for this shift. It stays within these few streets throughout.
I keep the session brief and relaxed, since this is really about one specific mood rather than a full walk. Questions are welcome throughout, and I point out which spots tend to fill first.
This suits anyone deciding where to spend an evening away from the main square. It also suits anyone curious about Skopje's residential nightlife rather than its busiest tourist streets.
Included
- Live video walk with a local guide
- Questions to your guide all the way
- A short list of places to visit later
Not included
- Internet connection
- Travel to the city
