It was very enjoyable even though it was cold and windy! A lot of travel involved so be prepared but definitely worth it. Our tour guide Sonila was amazing. She provided us with all the information we needed and allowed us to make changes to the itinerary due to the weather. She also took a detour and went out of her way to take me to a bakery that sold baklava and the viral Dubai chocolate simply because I asked where I could find it! She’s very knowledgeable and takes great pics! An absolute gem.

Overall the trip was good , all the locations were covered precisely , our captain was also nice , when we asked he gave us other locations to visit in sarande and that had breathtaking view , special thank you for that.
