Costa Rica
Holidays to North Macedonia take you away from the beaten track, with natural beauty and heaps of history along the way.
As a country, North Macedonia only dates back to 1991. And while it may be fresh-faced compared to neighbouring Greece, it’s finding its feet in the tourism game fast thanks to a back catalogue of historic buildings and tasty local food – a delicious mashup of Greek and Turkish dishes.
If there was a beauty contest for natural scenery, North Macedonia would be a sash winner. Over half the country is covered with mountains, and its forests and lakes teem with wildlife. Add a dose of the great outdoors to your trip and take it all in with a raft of outdoor activities, from kayaking to mountain biking.
Ohrid is a big name in the pearl business, and the shining gems that are plucked from the lake have hung around more than one royal neck over the years – even Princess Di had a necklace from here. Or for some less spenny souvenirs, explore the many craft shops, where you can pick up things like hand-painted ceramics and traditional butterfly brooches.
