Great experience in the Vjosa River - It was really good fun. The instructors were very friendly and funny. We felt safe at all times and we had a great time. In addition they took photos and sent them to us at the end of the tour.

Wonderful kayaking trip - Beautiful tour with blue eye and waterfall. Good English-speaking guidance, immediately clear instructions as to who went into the kayak with whom, so no discussion with teenagers and a nice time on the water. Wonderful trip and nice swimming in between, good instructions.

Outstanding! - I m normally not prone to use superlatives, but that was an incredible experience. We were a family of 6, with our youngest about to complete 6 years (who was riding the kayak of one of the guides). The scenery is breathtaking, there is a sub-river fountain of the bluest of colours, there are waterfalls, rapids (negotiable for beginners, but not without undue thrill!), and high embankments under soaring mountain peaks. And a very professional and caring team. Many thanks Albania Rafting!

Great experience. RECOMMENDED. - Great experience. Aldo and his colleague did everything to make it a fun experience. Only minor niggle was my kayak was set up as a single with the seat all the way in the back. Which made the front of the kayak lift out the water. When we hit a strong breeze this made it difficult to make progress. If I did it again I’d make sure I was in the middle/front. Nevertheless a great experience with beautiful scenery.
