Mooie, relaxte dagtrip! Interessante uitleg van de gids, Klajdi, veel gehoord over en gezien van Albanië. Er was op de verschillende stops genoeg tijd om individueel of met de gids de bezienswaardigheden te bekijken. Ook de organisatie zelf was top, er werd prima voor ons gezorgd! Bedankt Klajdi!

Defrim was very friendly, knowledgeable and a gentleman. He is a local but speaks English very well. The tour exceeded my expectations. He shared lots of information with us, not just about Berat but also about Albania and the Balkans. He was always eager to answer any questions. The pickup was on time, car was comfortable and he showed us a good lunch spot in Berat. The tour was totally worth it. Thank you!
