Very well organised trip that covered all the main sights. Well selected hotels and good restaurants. Zeni, our guide, was very considerate and knowledgeable.
Dear Rosemary, Thank you very much for your kind review! We’re happy you enjoyed the trip and the hotels. Zeni will be glad to hear your feedback. Hope to welcome you again in Albania! Warm regards, Local Friends Albania Team
We had a great experience with 3 couples partly due to our guide Xhuljano. A nice tour, seen a lot, and very good explanation of the sights. He had knowledge about culture, history, politics and everyday things. A very reliable and good driver despite the holiday / traffic in the month of August. Highly recommended. 1 small point to note: pay attention to the room layout.
Thank you very much for your feedback, we are glad that you have enjoyed the time with our guide Xhulio on the tour. We will take in consideration to mention the type of rooms included with the price per number of persons . Thank you and hope to see you again in the future
There was good communication from the start. We had added airport pickup and drop along with additional stays at Tirana due to our flight timings. This was taken care of by Skerdi for additional pay. Travelling with elderly parents was promptly noted and minor alterations were suggested by him. Overall a good 4 days spent as a family.
Our journey through Albania, from north to south, was an extraordinary experience, made all the more special by our outstanding guide, Xhulio. Always punctual, patient, and consistently cheerful, Xhulio impressed us with his impeccable organization and adaptability, paired with an impressive depth of knowledge about Albanian culture and history. Every moment spent exploring the country's diverse landscapes with him was a delight, enriched by engaging conversations during the drives. Beyond his remarkable qualities as a guide, Xhulio is also an exceptionally safe and reliable driver. We recommend Local Friends Albania to 100%.
Thank you for your review we appreciate your feedback
We can only recommend this private tour. You get a good insight into Albanian life. We added another day of Theth to the tour, which was a real highlight. Skerdi is a good driver, reliable, conveys a lot about the history of Albania. The selected restaurants were excellent. We will certainly come to Albania again and do another tour.
Thank you for your feedback , we are waiting forward to welcome you again to our beautiful Albania.
Our family (me, my husband, and our little one) had an amazing experience on this 4-day tour in Albania! From start to finish, everything was well-organized, and we felt completely taken care of. Skerdi, our guide, was absolutely fantastic—knowledgeable, friendly, and patient, especially with our child. He made sure we were comfortable throughout the trip, sharing fascinating stories about Albania’s history, culture, and traditions while also keeping things light and fun. The itinerary was a perfect mix of sightseeing, nature, and delicious local food. We explored stunning landscapes, charming old towns, and hidden gems that we wouldn’t have found on our own. Every day was an adventure, and we left with so many wonderful memories. If you’re looking for a tour that combines history, culture, and genuine hospitality, this is the one! Thank you, Skerdi, for making our trip so special—we truly came as customers and left as friends!
If you're looking to see all the best spots in Albania in a short amount of time, this private tour is definitely the way to go. Totally worth it
Skerdi, co-owner of tour operator "Friends of Albania" was the perfect guide: polite, friendly, very well educated, particularly in Albanian history, outspoken, and very considerate helping two older gentlemen with limited mobility, e.g. helping us at difficult trails and staircases, with our luggage, etc. We had a very private tour, just the two of us in his clean, private car. He got us a second bedroom in the hotels at very reasonable prices. The tour covers most of the important historical and naturally beautiful sites of Albania. Skerdi also does shorter tours. We highly recommend him.
We really appreciate your review and kind words . Thank you for choosing us .
Would highly recommend taking this trip if you are going to Albania for a short time. It was an amazing tour with them, we get to experience the local culture and got to know about the rich history of Albania. Our guide Xhuljano was very informative and definitely knew what he was talking about.
We appreciate your feedback and are really happy that you have enjoyed your time on the tour.
We did the 4-day private tour and we learned so much about the history of Albania in various regions. It was hard for our 9-year old to grasp the significance of the history, but our 13-year old absorbed a lot of information. Staying at the Castle Hotel in Berat was a highlight for all of us.
