Stobi
The old city of Stobi “…Stobis, vetus urbs…”, as the Roman historian Livy named it, at the confluence of rivers Crna and Vardar, was the largest city in the northern part of the Roman province Macedonia, later capital city of the Roman province Macedonia Secunda, an important urban, military, administrative, trade and religious center of two large empires: Roman and Early Byzantine. Located in the heart of Macedonia, on the crossroads between the Aegean World and the Central Balkan, during the whole period of its existence it was a place where cultural achievements of the ancient world gathered in a unique way.

Fantastic tour made special if you get Tony.
My boyfriend and I had a delightful experience with our private tour guided by Tony. He was very careful in getting his hat to the winery stopping at a magnificent Roman ruins which is right on the silk Road where two major rivers come together. Then we went on for a delightful lunch and tour of the winery. It’s a small winery, which is the perfect size for my wife and myself to enjoy. There was no rush for the lunch and it was excellent. The wines were fantastic!

Worth a day trip!
First coffee stop not special, there are probably nicer locations. Archaeological site you have to love but guides have given good info and it was special to see. Winery Popova Kula was worth it! Clear explanation of the vineyard and lunch consisting of macedonic dishes and 4 different wines was exquisite! Extra service was that the guides dropped us off at the airport.
Response from the operator: Thanks for taking our Wine Tour! We're glad to hear that you had a great time and hope to welcome you again in the future :)

Best Tours From Skopje
One of the best tours I have ever done in my life! First I did a tour of Matka Canyon and was then so impressed I booked a tour to a winery and the Roman ruins at Stopi. My tour guide Zarko was excellent and extremely passionate about the history and knew the answer to every question in a variety of subjects ranging from ancient history tol modern politics. If you are coming to Skopje, I cannot recommend them enough.

A wonderful day
Definitely recommend this tour. Our guide (and guide in training) were knowledgeable, and generous of spirit- answering our questions and sharing their own experiences. We were lucky to have a beautiful sunny day in the off-season. The visit to the archeological site was very interesting, and we both appreciated the winery lunch/tasting. The food was traditional and delicious and each course had a wine pairing.

Private Full Day Wine Tour from Skopje to Popova Kula Winery: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Skopje.
How much does Private Full Day Wine Tour from Skopje to Popova Kula Winery cost?
+
Prices start at $165 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Skopje usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Full Day Wine Tour from Skopje to Popova Kula Winery take?
+
Plan for about 7 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Skopje is not rushed.
Is Private Full Day Wine Tour from Skopje to Popova Kula Winery worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 57 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 6 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Skopje, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Full Day Wine Tour from Skopje to Popova Kula Winery?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private Full Day Wine Tour from Skopje to Popova Kula Winery suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Full Day Wine Tour from Skopje to Popova Kula Winery?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Skopje can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Skopje and add a light layer if any part of the 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Full Day Wine Tour from Skopje to Popova Kula Winery start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Skopje within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Skopje?
+
On Outty we rank every Skopje experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Walking In Skopje, Skopje: Canyon Matka, St. Pantelemon, Millennium Cross & Brunch, Group Tour from Skopje:Millennium Cross,Matka Canyon&Etno Village. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Skopje?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Skopje?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
