   My husband and I had the opportunity to visit Albania last month, and because of the pandemic, we wanted to do private tours to minimize our exposure to too many... read more people in close proximity. I reached out to Go As Local and heard back from Andi pretty immediately. In fact, he was very responsive throughout the entire planning process, and provided assurances as we got closer to our tour date, as we were not sure if there would be any restrictions placed back on Albania or the surrounding countries due to the difficulties with containing COVID-19. This excellent communication, by itself, was extremely important to me, as I have very high expectations with regard to communication and professionalism. Our communication experience was followed by wonderful professionalism and personal engagement throughout our time with Andi and our driver, Skerdi. We did two tours with Andi and Skerdi (Private Tour to Kosovo and Private tour to Northern Macedonia), and at the end of our trip, we added a third tour (to Shengjergji Waterfall and Bunk'Art), and Andi was willing to come down on the price to show his appreciation for us booking a third tour. Each tour was personalized, engaging, and enjoyable, and we highly recommend Andi and Go As Local to anyone wanting a quality and professional tour experience. If I could give more than 5 stars, I definitely would!

   Go as Local, from the meaning it means you feel like native albanian. The best advice from Trip Adviser is eat as locals eat or where they eat. So...so... but... read more don't worry for gain weight. After a delicious traditional food then is time to explore beaty of Albania with Andi and Sindi. Both know how to give you everything you need with smiles in the face. Less than 3 days you will learn almost everything about Albania: kitchen, nature and culture. Everything you  must do is come and Go as Local.
