A very interesting and personal experience. The guide was extremely knowledgeable, and it was very interesting to learn more about Albania's political history and its impacts. Highly recommend this tour.
Response from Host, Aug 2026
I had the good fortune of spending a wonderful time with two very kind girls. I will remember them for a long time. One of them enjoys adventures, climbing heights etc, and the other girl is very sweet and sociable.
Girls, thank you for the kind comment. You are the best.
This is a small family operation and not one of those big bus tours. I was privileged to be the only person on the date I chose. Ermal had some great personal stories and anecdotes about the area and it's history. I recommend sturdy walking shoes for the rubble of the ruins and maybe pants. There was some tall grass and a few spiky plants around the bunker. Overall it was a really enjoyable morning and I am really glad I signed up for it!

Jean, your words motivate me a lot to keep moving forward.
For me, it was a privilege to meet such a wonderful person in every detail.
With your kindness and sincerity, you made our tour a truly enjoyable experience.
I am very grateful.
A wonderful private tour led by a father/daughter duo which rewards patience and interest in Albanian history. We explored the ruins of the C6th monastery and Cold War bunkers and finished with a peaceful visit to the mosque. Ermal confirmed pick up time/place by WhatsApp the day before and the tour lasted a little under 2 hours. Recommend good shoes as the sites are very crumbly.
