This was a great experience! It was a long day, but it was worthwhile due to the beautiful sights. Daniel was an awesome tour guide!
Daniel was a brillant tour guide, lovely man with such a good sense of humour and knowledge on Albania, the tour itself was breathtaking, you can’t not go to Albania and experience the blue eye! It was worth every penny!
Well organised Lots of useful information. Hike to the Blue eye was challenging, but Kledis made it enjoyable. Very helpful and considerate, ensuring that the whole group was well looked after.
A MUST if you don’t have time to stay overnight in northern Albania like us. Worth every minute in the van! Amazing day, I didn’t even feel like we were driving as much as we did.
Very beautiful. A breathtaking landscape!
We took this day tour last week, and it was absolutely the highlight of our trip to Albania. The scenery of the Albanian Alps and Theth Village is spectacular, but what truly made the day special was our fantastic tour guide, Daniel. From the moment we started, Daniel was incredibly insightful, welcoming, and professional. He shared deep knowledge about the history, culture, and traditions of the region, keeping the group engaged the whole time and answering all our questions with enthusiasm. Despite the long drive from Tirana, the tour was perfectly organized and Daniel managed the schedule flawlessly, ensuring a comfortable pace for everyone during the hikes. Walking through the pristine forests to the Blue Eye was rejuvenating and worth every step. For future travelers, we highly recommend wearing proper hiking shoes with good grip and packing some snacks and water for the trekking portions. We cannot recommend this tour enough to anyone visiting Tirana, and if you are lucky enough to get Daniel as your guide, you are guaranteed a perfect day!
Super outing and Jeffrey is one superstar😎💪🏻
Very beautiful day! An experience worth having.
This was probably my favorite tour of all the ones I’ve done in Albania. Our guide, Daniel, was really fantastic. My fav guide in Albania who shared a lot of info and tips with us. The hike was not too bad, and the views the whole way were beautiful. Some areas the tour can improve though: our driver was a menace. Some of the journey is through winding mountain roads and he was speeding along them to the point where we had to pull over for a lady to throw up on our way back. If your driving is causing someone to vomit, you should slow down. But after we got back on the bus, he continued driving fast. Dude should slow his roll a lil. This isn’t GTA. also, there really should’ve been two guides since there were 20 of us — one to lead the hike and another to be at the end. This is a safety concern especially since the hike involves traversing over rocks and things in the heat. Docking a star because this company should care more about guest safety, especially during the hike.
It was really good, once in a lifetime experience, never expected Albania to be this beautiful.Our guide Jeffry was very lovely.
