It was very beautiful, truly recommended! You see a lot and it was very varied! From photo stops, to jumping into the water from the speedboat, to a roughly 3-hour stop at Krorëza Beach, everything was great. In our case, we always had crystal clear water or turquoise blue sea. The beach was very easy to find, and from there you also boarded the speedboat directly. They advertise a turtle cave, but our taxi driver smiled and denied that there is one, which was not too bad. The only thing one should be aware of beforehand is that your tailbone will hurt afterward from the boat slamming onto the waves😅.
Promised sun beds and umbrellas but there was none we were meant to go to six bays but went to one got told we would get off for food and drink but could only do it if you swam in choppy seas with 1 hand above your head with money and phones in your hand worst boat trip ever they should of cancelled it because the sea was too rough and at the end 20 people got together only one Albanian girl spoke to the crew and they were so rude to us all just get the small boats or the skull boats x
We are truly sorry to hear about your experience and that the trip did not meet your expectations. We check the weather forecast and sea conditions every day before operating our tours. On the day of your trip, the conditions appeared safe when we departed. Unfortunately, once we were already at sea, we realized that the waves and sea conditions were much rougher than expected. The sea can sometimes change very quickly and be unpredictable. For safety reasons, we were informed that the conditions were much worse in the area of some of the planned destinations, making it impossible to visit all six bays. That is why we decided to stop at fewer locations instead. Due to the rough sea conditions, it was also impossible to safely dock the boat at certain places, which is why guests were asked to swim to the shore. We completely understand how disappointing and inconvenient this was. Please know that whenever we know in advance that the weather or sea conditions are unsafe, we cancel all tours for the safety of both our guests and our staff. In this case, the conditions became much worse after we had already started the trip. We are sincerely sorry for your experience and appreciate your feedback. Your safety is always our highest priority.
Antonio, captain was the Best captain we could’ve hoped for.. he couldn’t have done more for us to make the trip one of the best experiences that we’ve all done.. highly recommended and ask for Antonio!!!!!
Such a good day trip to see hidden caves, snorkel in clear sea and laze at the beach. Cool boat driver and dance tunes to enjoy. Loved it! Tips: Bring ur own food as only one option. Meet at the kiosk stands first to check in as the location marker showed me the wrong spot and should show the promenade.
Se had a wonderful day with Kristi!I would do this tour again next year on 2026.we took amaizing pictures and se will always remember that day
Must do experience when in Saranda! It was well organised and so much fun. I highly recommend this trip.
Kristi was in charge of our boat and was there all the time making us have a good time. He encouraged us with the music and took us to beautiful places to swim. I would repeat the experience for sure!
Really beautiful trip, however the guide played the music far, far too loud, we were unable to talk to eachother between locations and guide gave no intro/ safety briefing nor gave us his name.
We booked a boat trip to the islands around Sarandë and, to our surprise, ended up on a speedboat. At first, we weren’t sure what to expect, but it turned out to be an amazing experience! Our boat driver was full of life — a little wild in the best way possible — but also passionate and fun. Even at full speed, he made sure we felt safe while encouraging everyone to relax and enjoy the ride. His energy set the tone for the whole trip. The islands themselves were beautiful, and the crystal-clear water was absolutely perfect for swimming. We had such a great time and would definitely love to do this again. Honestly, if you come to Sarandë and skip this trip, you’re missing out — it’s a must-do to truly experience the Albanian Riviera.
The tour was a lot of fun. The guide was super nice and the beach very nice. Also that you had 3.5 hours to stay there was great. The speedboat ride was very fun. Contacted via WhatsApp and things clarified was very easy, friendly and reliable. Only point of departure; the spots were very nice to jump into the sea, just not as spectacular as hoped. Overall it was great and worth the 36€!!!
