Definitely recommend.I didn’t actually end up on this trip, as my 2-year-old and I were the only ones wanting to do it. Instead, we did the Blue Eye, the castle and Butrint National Park. However, we’re so glad we went on the different one anyway. Our guide - Kacey (probably spelt very wrong) - was brilliant. My son ...
I didn’t actually end up on this trip, as my 2-year-old and I were the only ones wanting to do it. Instead, we did the Blue Eye, the castle and Butrint National Park. However, we’re so glad we went on the different one anyway. Our guide - Kacey (probably spelt very wrong) - was brilliant. My son was in awe of her, and wanted to hold her hand at every stop. She was brilliant with him and the rest of the group, making sure that we were all well informed and saw the right things from the right places. Can’t recommend this tour company enough.Beautiful place, immersed in pure nature, clean and tidy; full of vegetation; lots of places to relax and have some delicious local food. Blue eye is something amazing.

Our guide Elvis eventually found us and a meeting point would have been helpful. The walk up to the castle in the heat was challenging after issues with the car meant we were let out half way up the road. Elvis soon caught us up and told us some of the history of his country and some amusing stories of life in Albania. The wine tasting was good and the wine rather pleasant. The Blue eye I hadn’t researched well and it was a 20 minute walk in intense heat with no shade to the site. It was lovely but you need to be relatively fit and have stamina in the heat. Elvis left us to walk the final 30m and went and secured a table in the shade for when we returned. Then came the hike back to the car in even hotter temperatures. He was really good company and made the trip throughly enjoyable. I would recommend the trip if you have a day in the area and taxis wait at the port are double the price we paid via TAThe best organised tour we’ve done in Albania. Mara was extremely kind and helpful and took us to lovely places. Couldn’t recommend more.
