   Can't say enough for this tour and Andi our tour guide. Within three days you can experience a boat trip that will make you think you're traveling through a beautiful... read more fjord with high peeks and beautiful clean water. Then you will enter the magic valley of Valbona. Circled by stunningly high mountains with snow covered peaks. Lodging is in typical houses of the region called "bujtina". There you will find amazing hospitality from everyone in the village. The food is excellent and I invite you to taste everything the region offers. There's a "short" hike that will introduce you to the area and prepare you for the next day "big" hike. Andi the consumate professional will make his best to show you the best the area offers while in the same time you will get in shape for the next day. The next day is the big hike. It's about 18 km or 12 miles. The hike is moderate with some parts that are quiet steep. One advice I'd give you is to travel as light as possible and bring walking sticks. You will be able to walk through some amazing views that you will remember forever. Next stop is Theth. Two regions that are really close but gastronomically so different. This area has so kuch to offer and Andi will make sure that you enjoy everything. Next day you'll enjoy the magnificent views of Grunas Watwrfall and dive in Medieval Albanian Customs. Andi knows and details everything and will make you think you're actually living in that time. 
 Last things I'll reserve for our tour guy, Andi. He had everything organized to the detail. I can just say that we left Tirana with a tour guy and we returned with a new friend. Thanks for everything.

   I found the website Go As Local in google and started browsing through it.. I immediately found the whatsapp chat option and started chatting and asking about questions related to... read more the tours and COVID19 guidelines in Albania & other neighbouring countries.  Andi and Julio were  with us during the your and they were both spectacular. They are knowledgeable, froendly, helpful and they make you feel comfortable.  We had limited time during our Balkan escapade and wanted to make the most of it so we decided to go for a day trip in Montenegro. I recommend this trip to those whose time is not a luxury. It is a bit of a long drive however it is worth it! Saint Stefan, Budva and Kotor are amazing places one has to visit when in the area. Plus you do get breaks from sitting in the car. Andi is very flexible with both the time and the tour.  Hopefully we get to come back to Albania and explore more of the Southern region.  Thanks Andi, you made our holiday an unforgettable one.

Itinerary

Day 1Tirana to Rozafa Castle

After we leave Tirana, we will head toward the North of Albania with the Castle of Rozafa as the first stop. Build over the top of a hill, in an overlooking position over the City, the Castle has played a crucial role in Albanian History dating from the Antiquity and the Iliryan – Roman Wars. Its building history is also connected with one of the most fascinating legends of Albanian Epos.

Tour of Shkoder

After leaving the Castle we will head down to the city of Shkoder. Famous for its typical architecture, sense of humor, and warm welcome, it has been one of the most important centers of Albania. Shkodra is also a city with a high religious tolerance. In a short distance, we can find a Catholic Church, Orthodox Church, and Muslim Mosque next to each other.

Walking tour in Shkoder in some of the most interesting part of the city and famous “Pedonale”.

Diving to Theth

In the afternoon, we will leave Shkoder behind to head more in the North, toward Theth where we will spend the overnight. After driving on a windy road we will reach Theth where we will be welcomed by a local family in their guesthouse.

Day TwoTour of Theth

After breakfast at the guesthouse, the beautiful Gurnas waterfall, located around a 45-min walk from the center of the village, is our last stop before leaving Theth behind.

On the way back we will have the chance to visit also the Catholic Church of Theth and the Lock-in Tower. With more than 4 centuries of history, this building is the symbol of settling down the blood feuds in Albania. In addition, after the visit of Theth we will start our way back to Tirana.
