Great guide and well worth seeing all the main bits of Albania.

Endria has been sooo knowledgeable and such a historian we thought he’d studied history at Uni but he is just passionate about his job. 5 days with a guide showing us the highlights of Albania is a great insight into the history of Albania. Such a beautiful country with mountains everywhere. The Norway/Switzerland of The Ionian. Would def recommend. We had Endria for 5 days.

Good trip but ...!

First of all you have to understand : it is a sightseeing tour and not a leisure vacation as you will stay most of the time in the car ...it was exhausting especially for me and my 5 kids family ....prior to pay money be sure about hotels ...non of the was 4 star as promised all of them were of B&B level ...be sure about the car : ours was old van with poor AC performance so we had to change cloths with every 2 or 3 stops....other wise cities were nice and beautiful and country was very safe and certainly deserves visiting and tourism....I have here to thank our driver Mr Timmy who was honestly very professional and helpful
