Some things to note
Please note:
- Kratovo is off North Macedonia’s typical tourist path, and therefore it has limited tourism infrastructure. Although our hotel is comfortable, please be aware that occasional noise from nearby functions in local restaurants or the like may be heard. The locals are unaccustomed to tourist groups and may not be quiet in the evening, but this adds to the village’s charm. By staying here, we also contribute to the village’s vibrancy and preservation.
- We don’t want you to miss out on any aspect of your small group tour. To ensure that you don’t, we recommend you arrive at your starting destination by 5:00pm in order to take part in your welcome dinner.
