È stata davvero una bella esperienza, abbiamo visitato tutto quello che viene descritto ma la cosa più importante è che il ragazzo che ci ha fatto da guida è stato super gentile e disponibile, parla bene italiano e ci ha spiegato tantissime cose dall'inizio alla fine della giornata.

Esperienza magnifica grazie alla professionalità dimostrata dal Tour Operator Good Albania. La guida, Nikola, eccezionale. Ci ha fatto sentire come fossimo a casa e ci ha trasferito tanto durante le visite, e non solo. PS Abbiamo pranzato in una location dove abbiamo potuto assaggiare le tradizionali pietanze albanesi. Da non perdere!!!

It was a great tour. Xhino arrived at the planned time and ended up taking me on a private tour as there was no one else booked. He was full of knowledge and passion for Albania. He was polite and made me feel welcome. One of the best tours I have done.
