Absolutely fantastic guided tour! My friend and I were hugely impressed by our guide's knowledge and learned a lot about the culture and history of Albania. we were pleasantly surprised that our guide didn't even cancel the trip, despite it being just the two of us. The guide was enthusiastic, talkative, and extremely good and nice to help take pictures and videos, and generally pleasant self. A recommended trip for people who want to experience a full day trip and learn a lot about the people and culture of Albania!

Cape Rodon offers fantastic views from the cliffs! Not so crowded! The church is now closed on Wednesdays, so we couldn't see the church from the inside. Rodoni Beach right next to the church is great for swimming! Unfortunately, the wine tasting didn't take place because there was a private party at the winery. Our guide Besenik drove to an alternative, the Huqi agritourism, which was sensational! We liked it much better than the actual winery that was on the program! Thanks again to Besenik! A top guide!!!!!

We had a great time on this trip! We booked late the night before and they were super lovely in accomodating us. Aleks was a great guide and a great driver, and ensured we had a great experience. Would definitely book again!! Thank you

Great day trip!! Views were wonderful and the guide was very knowledgeable on the history of the area

thanks you again Besnik for this Magic day, best spots in Capo Rodoni and best wine dégustation 👌👌
