Experience Macedonia Through Its Most Famous Homemade Specialty
If you want to feel the true soul of Macedonia, this is an experience you will not find in traditional travel guides.
In the heart of the Tikveš region, in the authentic village of Palikura, you will spend several hours with a local family that has been producing one of Macedonia’s most famous specialties for generations – homemade ajvar.
This is not a restaurant visit, nor a typical tasting experience. This is a genuine Macedonian family experience where guests become part of the tradition.

Depending on the season, you will have the opportunity to:
- Pick fresh homemade peppers directly from the fields.
- Roast peppers using traditional methods.
- Take part in preparing authentic Macedonian ajvar.
- If it is not ajvar season, prepare traditional Macedonian mekici together with the hosts.
- Walk through the family’s fields and greenhouses and learn how the vegetables that end up on the table are grown.

- Toast with homemade grape rakija made from locally grown grapes.
