Taxi - Skopje

Updated: Oct 3

Seli Taxi - Two weeks of trips


It all started on a hot summer's day. We had just finished shopping in the Skopje mall, and Seli was the first taxi in the rank.


He was pleasant and friendly, spoke English, and had air conditioning!


Upon arriving home, he gave us his card and said feel free to call me anytime +38970550348.

We took him up on his offer to take us to lunch the next day. Unfortunately, we only had 1000 Denar, and the hotel could not change it. Seli said, "No worries; pay me when I return to pick you up." We were overwhelmed by the trust; being from Australia, a taxi driver would never let you out until you had paid.


Each time we messaged him (via WhatsApp), he was minutes away and never kept us waiting.


We gave him the 1000 Denar and used it as credit for the next few trips. Each ride is approximately 100-150 Denar (2 EUR).


It was only natural that we booked Seli to take us to Serbia. He switched his taxi for a very comfortable transfer, and we arrived safely in Serbia, which was only a 1.5-hour drive from Skopje for 70 EUR.



We enjoyed the ease of communicating with Seli and his incredible energy. He always brought smiles and laughter each trip, and we felt like we had our driver for all our needs in Skopje.
