“We had THE BEST day! We would highly recommend doing this tour. It honestly made us fall even more in love with Albania. We enjoyed the most wonderful hike, surrounded by the most beautiful scenery. Stopped for coffee and lunch at some really lovely places and enjoyed some delicious food. We went swimming in some beautiful blue lagoons and stopped off at a waterfall. We even got to go zip lining! Theth is stunning and it’s so worth a visit up to the mountains. We met some wonderful people and learned so much about the Albanian way of life. It was truly a magical day from start to finish! We’d…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.2 · 32 reviews · 6 hours · from $30

Six hours cruising from Koman to Shala River on Komani Lake, with nature time at Blini Park, activities, and an English guide.

“J’ai été déçu surtout par le lieux en lui même. La route pour y accéder est juste dans un état affreux. Je suis enceinte et cela a été une grosse source de stress car cela n’est pas indiqué. Payer 26 euros juste pour un aller retour en bateau c’est trop cher. Bref si c’était à refaire je n’irais pas malgré la beauté de cette rivière et de son eau.”

Jeep day tour from Shkoder to Theth, with hotel pickup, free waterfall and tower stops, plus optional Blue Eye add-on.

“Very enjoyable trip with an excellent driver. Beautiful views and well worth the time on the road to get to the mountains. Do not forget your hiking shoes (flip flops just don't cut it -speaking from experience here). If you are heading to Blue Eye and have lunch do ensure that you tell them exactly what you want and how much they will charge for it -otherwise the price may surprise you (staff reactions too). An exciting and long day but well worth it.”
