Shala River makes you do a double take—turquoise water, steep cliffs, and that calm “we’re really here?” feeling. Locals call it the Albanian Thailand for a reason.

On board, you’ll travel on a roomy boat (up to 52 guests) with a multilingual crew, so things run smoothly without feeling rushed.

Seats are comfy, and the crew keeps the day simple and safe, too! Then it’s your time at Shala: swim, float, try kayaking if it’s available on-site, or grab a spot on the rocky riverbank and relax. No forced agenda—just fresh air and clear water. Life jackets are provided and guests are insured, so you can focus on the fun.

Kruja castle, the old Bazaar & Sarisalltik- Departure from Tirana

Merlin_B, May 2026

A beautiful experience

It’s a wonderful experience, start to finish. You’re prepped with clear info on meeting, timing, and activities. Denis is extremely informed and does these tours with passion and humor while leaving you feeling as you’ve come away truly seeing a place and its culture. Bledi the driver was amazing as well, I can’t imagine navigating these roads on my own and he did it with ease and grace. A well balanced tour that we were so glad to have done. Highly recommend, faleminderite Denis & Bledi!

North Macedonia: Ohrid & Saint Naum Day Tour from Tirana

Vanda_H, May 2026

Great Trip

Despite the weather, & returning to a ‘peaceful protest’ in the city centre of Tirana, Armand our guide and our wonderful bus driver were extremely cheerful & patient. Armand was extremely informative, a person who clearly loved his job, a fantastic personality to be fair. The bus driver must have been very frustrated to be greeted with the news he had to turn around near the centre, adding an hour & half to the journey, he must have been very tired as a result. Both driver & guide were magnificent! First class! I recommend this trip 100%.

Angela_D, May 2026

Absolutely Terrific! Would do again!

**BRING CASH AND IN SMALL DENOMINATIONS** Highly recommend this tour! Our guide and driver were both great. Our bus was nearly full but we were all punctual. Our guide gave us a brief explanation at all 4 sites and turned us loose to enjoy ourselves. You must wear your best walking shoes - you will walk a lot! I recommend sunglasses and bringing a bottle of water.

Sarande and Ksamil - the Albanian Riviera. A must-do trip

A wonderful scenic trip south from Tirane to Sarande. A long day but so worth it - knock out scenery, stunning beaches, crystal clear water, ending with a short easy hike to the Blue Eye underground spring - beautiful!! Great comms from the tour operator Sky Key Tours and our guide, IIme, took good care of us. Our driver was amazing too - highly recommend this trip if you have the time.

Tirana: Day Tour to Montenegro, Budva and Sveti Stefan

Nam_N, May 2026

Day trip to Budva, Montenegro from Tirana

This has been a long day trip which stretched almost whole day. The weather was unexpectedly rainy so it could not be helped. At day's end the bus got broken before Montenegron border crossing so kudos to our driver and guide who tried their best to fix it to running condition and got us back to Tirana. I would definitely recommend. Our guide was also knowledgeable about Albania's culture and history so he shared a lot of good information.

Waleed_S, Apr 2026

Exxellent tour, made even better by a superb guide

This is one of the best excursion trips I’ve been on. It’s got a bit of everything, a very interesting drive, a tunnel walk, a lovely boat ride and then there’s even a hike at the end to top it off. Fjona our guide is hands down the best guide I’ve travelled with, she kept the groups energy up, she was very knowledgable and continued to brief us at important moments, and despite the bad weather, her and her teammate Erwine, went out of the way to help us. When I got a bad seat on the boat, she insisted, I was moved further down, where I could feel warmer and that’s the characteristics of someone who’s not just a very good guide but an excellent human being. She made sure all of us were comfortable and mind you, she’s also an excellent photographer. As advertised on her hoodie, she’s not just princess of guides, she’s The Queen. Special shoutout to Mondi, our driver, the roads were dangerous and winding, and at one point, we got stuck with some asphalt pavers working on one side, but he expertly handled the situation, and drove us out of their safely. Very professional company, very professional staff. Can’t recommend them enough.

Berat city UNESCO tour, the Castle & Belshi lake- From Tirana

Alan_W, Apr 2026

Worth Visiting Berat- smaller size group preferred.

Fantastic tour guide who had a wealth of knowledge about The Castle, places of worship and the Museum all of with which he was eager to share with the group. Two complaints: 1. Too many people on this tour- May have been wiser if there were so many booked on this tour to have had 2 guides and break them up into 2 groups. It would have been a better expedience. However, to his credit our guide did a great job. 2. There was also too much free time in Berat (2 1/4hr) 1 hour would have been sufficient, but for us even that was too much. Not enough to really do there except have a meal or get a snack.

Small group Day Tour of Kosovo from Tirana, Pristina and Prizren

Sandra_F, Apr 2026

The activity went...

The activity went according to plan. Our guide Giulio was very helpful and knowledgeable. We learned a lot about the history of the places and also about current matters. We had enough time to explore in Prizren which was very welcome and the guided tour of Pristina was very informative. If you want to see Kosovo, this is a great way. Transportation was also comfortable and felt safe. Thanks Giulio for a great day!

Hike Gamti Mountain with Bovilla lake view & canyon- From Tirana

Elisabeth_S, Apr 2026

Awesome experience....

Awesome experience. Beautiful views. The hike itself is not very long but it’s not super easy. If you are new to hiking, this might not be the best way to learn. Or if you are afraid of heights. But my husband was able to do it and he’s not the most athletic. Just be careful! Make sure you dress appropriately.

Albanian Night Show: Traditional Music, Dance & Dinner in Tirana

Andrew_W, Dec 2025

Outstanding experience of Albanian culture

This is a must see event in Tirana. Make sure to also book the dinner afterwards. Singing was superb, dancing was super professional, and the host (bride’s father) was fantastic. I especially liked the way he included everyone in the audience throughout the performance. 5 stars!!!

Saranda:Boat Tour to Kakome,Hidden Cave & Beaches,with snorkell.

Anshuman_J, Nov 2025

Fantastic Day Out on the Water!

This boat trip from Saranda was one of the highlights of our trip! The whole experience was so well organized — plenty of time to relax, swim, and soak in the amazing scenery. The water at each stop was stunning, with crystal-clear shades of blue and green that felt like a dream. The music on board created a great vibe all day, and both drivers were super fun and friendly, keeping everyone in good spirits. The boat was brand new and in great condition (especially when compared to other cheaper tour operators locally). There were several swim breaks, each in a beautiful, calm spot, and enough time to really enjoy them. If you’re looking for a fun, laid-back day exploring the beaches and islands around Saranda, this trip is a must! Highly recommend. 🌊🚤💙
