“We were not very sure if booking this tour was worth it as we only had one day to visit Durres. But it was such a good decision, we got to see a part of the city that would not have managed otherwise and also had a lot of fun riding the ATVs. For some of our group this was the first experience, but the tour guide was great, he explained everything in details and took time during the ride to guide us through driving in difficult terrains and also answering all our questions. All in all it was a great afternoon.”
Blue Cave and Grama Bay on a guided boat day from Vlore, with caves, snorkel stops, and wild Karaburun beaches.
“I have to be honest, we did this excursion in August 2025, and I feel like I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. For 80 euros per person, we got a taxi-driver on a speed-boat, who very reluctantly drove us to all the indicated locations. When you arrived to each location, he would just say, "Get off, this is this, and we will leave in 20 minutes". He was supposed to provide us with snorkeling equipment, but it was never offered. Sometimes he would say we'd stay at the beach for 30 minutes, but after 10 minutes, he'd say we had to leave. Sometimes it was a short 10-minute stay, but…”

He did a great job introducing us to the culture and history of Albania and also we got to see so much of Tirana and we ended up by the grand park where the views and chats were amazing. Also the bikes were the best we’ve had on a bike tour. We were impressed by Tirana !”

“I went into the tour knowing nothing really about Albania, its history, or the city or Tirana. Albiona explained the history of Albania in detail and provided so much insight into each phase that I could not believe it. Albiona is so passionate about Albania and protecting its history and culture and she is a perfect spokesperson for tourism! We saw so much in the few hours and places I definitely would not have found or went to without Albionas knowledge. Such a great few hours. Thank you so much Albiona for your time and insights. I will definitely be recommending this to anyone that travels to Tirana.”
