Berat is worth seeing, but…. The people of Albania are extremely kind and helpful. But some of the people working with the public seem extremely rude as was the woman running our tour. She chastised multiple people for asking questions and being 1 or 2 minutes late. Every stop was regimented down to the minute. We were told to take a taxi back on an all day tour because my 78 year old husband left his backpack 10 minutes away walking. I would not recommend this company because they are extremely, extremely regimented. The trip to Berat is definitely worth doing.

Recommended Tour Bledjan is very knowledgeable and got a very nice recommendations where to go and what to visit. His humor makes the bus ride light and enjoyable. The tour in general exceeds the expectations for its price.My only concern and suggestion is that he might want to avoid smoking while he’s engaging or close to the participants, coz he might trigger health concerns like people with asthma.

Oggi sono stata a fare la escursione a Berat con la guida Paola. È stata una esperienza bellissima. Lei è molto simpatica, oltre dal perfetto inglese parla anche italiano benissimo e pure anche un po’ di spagnolo. Il autista eccellente. I posti visitati sono stati molto belle. Le tempistiche per tutto il giorno ottime. Grazie di cuore.

We did a tour to Berat from Tirana , Albania. Ervin Tafani is a wonderful, knowledgeable and very pleasant guide. He told personal stories of his own life as an Albanian and obviously is very proud of his heritage. I recommend him highly as a tour guide.

Enjoyable tour filled with learning opportunities This experience was very informative and an enjoyable day spent learning about the rich history of Albania and seeing amazing sights. Our guide Ervin was excellent a provided a lot of insight that we would not have been able to learn otherwise. I would highly recommend this experience to anyone who wants a laid back day filled with learning and exploring.

Berat City Tour Excellent from Bus Ride to Tour Guide! Incredible tour about the history and scenic context of everything seen! Ervin was absolutely fantastic and brought the entire trip to life from the start of the bus ride through the entire tour. Would highly recommend if you’re looking for a “planning free” exploring of a new city. Adequate time was given for free time as well so you don’t have to worry about having all your time controlled if that’s a concern. Well done overall!

Must do day trip to Berat Charming day trip to Berat old town and castle from Tirana. We stopped at peaceful Belshi lake before heading off to the castle at Berat. There is quite a bit of climbing but the view at the top is well worth it. The UNESCO city of Berat is thoroughly recommended, lovely walk around the city with plenty of free time. Our guide Paola did a great job and was very knowledgeable about her subject, thank you Paola!!

A great experience We enjoyed a beautiful half day up in the mountains and in the old part of Kruja. Klajdi was an amazing guide, providing helpful information and fun facts. I also appreciated a lot the driver's ability to navigate both the crazy traffic and the hairpin turns up the mountain. Highly recommended!

10/10 place to visit if you are in Albania My tour to Lake Bovilla and Gamti Mountain was absolutely beautiful and full of adventure! The landscapes were breathtaking. I completely fell in love with Albania’s natural beauty. Our guide Paola was amazing from start to finish. She shared interesting information about the area and even taught me a few words in Albanian, which made the experience extra special. Paola was not only professional but also so kind and easy to talk to by the end of the day, it felt like I had made a new friend. The tour was perfectly organized and truly exceeded all my expectations. I can’t recommend Paola and this company enough!
