Skopje Region

Skopje is the capital and largest city of the Republic of Macedonia with about a third of the total population. It is the country's political, cultural, economic, and academic centre. It was known in the Roman period under the name Scupi. In 148 BC the city became part of the Roman province of Macedonia, established in 146 BC. When the Roman Empire was divided into eastern and western halves in 395 AD, Skupi came under Byzantine rule from Constantinople. 

Today, Skopje is becoming a modern city. Home to about quarter of the entire population of the country, it is also home to many different types of people. Besides the majority Macedonians, many Albanians, Turks, Roma, Serbs, Bosniaks and others call Skopje home.


We just returned from Paris and I are thanking you for the incredible job you did in putting our trip together.

We are very appreciative for everything you did for us and everything went very well. We’re safe and sound back home thinking about the joy we experienced. We loved the tours, the museums, the hotel and its staff … everything just perfect!!!! The pleasure was mine in working with you Diane, you responded quickly to every question, set up transportation and tours I would have never imagined. You prepared us both very well for our first to Paris, everything went so smoothly. Thank you again!
