Beautiful - Fascinating and humbling experience! Beautiful views and interesting lesson on mussel farming! Also got some free time to go for a dip on an empty beach while waiting for some wine and mussels :)

Authentic educative experience - We did the tour after visiting the archeological park of Butrint, directly at the entrance of Butrint our captain was waiting. Sailing through the channel of Vivari gives me the impresion as I where back in antiquity. We stop sailing when we arrived at mussel beds, concret beton structure build for mussel cultivation. The captain explained the whole process of mussel cultivation and at an ideal place we did the second stop for the lunch, fresh mussels that we harvest from the lake the family cooked for us in two kind of ways. Delicious. Two hours spend in happines and learning.

Amazing 😍 - Highlight of our short trip to Albania. Our guide Elidon was knowledgeable with a calm and friendly manner. It was the end of the mussell season, so we didn't know if we would find any Queens, but we managed to find enough to experience cleaning and preparing process. Delicious meal at the tiny restaurant, and we got to go for a tiny dip in the lake. 100% recommend!

Lovely tour. Very informative. Beautiful experience. A must try! ☺️ - Started off with a lovely sail into the lake to see where the mussels came from, followed by a meal and a sail back to shore with the the sunset 🌅 Lovely tour. Very informative. Beautiful experience. A must try! ☺️

Informative tour and delicious food. One of the best things to do in Ksamil - The views were amazing. Elidon, our guide was friendly and knowledgeable. My children loved being shown the baby mussels and crabs and getting hands on cleaning the mussels was a highlight for them. The restaurant where we ate our mussels was in a beautiful location and we all agreed they were the best mussels we had ever eaten! I really recommend this tour.

Joyful experience - This was a great experience! You learn about mussel farming and are taken out on the Butrint lake on a small boat. The restaurant they take you to is open air on the other side of the lake. You have a few moments to swim before lunch/dinner is served. The food was delicious and so fresh!

Fantastic trip - Fantastic couple of hours learning about mussel farming - small group (9), knowledgeable guide and after helping to clean the mussels we got to eat them hosted by a lovely family on the lakeside. Would definitely recommend.

Stunning scenery , relaxing , tasty seafood - Booked a few weeks in advance and didn’t get confirmation email after booking it, only had screenshot of booking ref via trip advisor, so found WhatsApp via Google to confirm when to arrive for. Advised to arrive for 4pm had booked 5pm trip set off around 4. We got to the Lake Park pool bar/restaurant in the morning (just above the lake where you get boat from) paid for sun beds for the day , (really good spot) not associated to this trip, but would highly recommend. The mussel tour itself; beautiful scenery, guide was informative, learned a new appreciation for mussels. These ones are particularly tasty. We prepared them after what we were to eat was collected by our guide from the lake, to then move on to a lakeside rustic place where they were steamed by the chef and prepared by our guide with local ingredients & some other local produce, so good & stunning views! Would’ve been 5 stars but chasing down the booking confirmation and details on when to arrive for gave me a bit of anxiety beforehand, with having to search further online for WhatsApp link and fortunately having taken screenshot of booking ref at time of booking it on here.

They have NO IDEA how to run a company - I do not know how this gets such great reviews! After pre-booking (4 days in advance) and paying in-full, (through TripAdvisor), we were informed that the local business had “over sold” ….on the morning of the tour. This is a recurring theme for Ksamil “businesses” btw…take your money then either disappear, or “change the terms” last minute. Super shady and dishonest. And they DO NOT give a care. We had a day planned with this tour company- written confirmation and payment, well in advance…and then were told to bug off. No booking management, unprofessional, absolutely no knowledge in how to run a tour operation. DO NOT make these plans. Go elsewhere.

Awful, disrespectful service. - Terrible experience. Booked and paid for this tour 5 days in advance. We were SO excited for this experience and they then emailed at 23:15 (!!!) the night before our tour saying they had overbooked the tour and had to cancel us. Unprofessional. Appalling service. Don’t book.
