Loved my tour! - My tour was fabulous! I had a short time to spend in Albania and I felt this tour would give me a nice idea of the country; I'm thinking of retiring in Albania but wanted to see each city quickly before I come back for an extended time. My guide, Endri, was great!! So knowledgeable, loves his country, and put-up with all my many many questions!! Endri was accommodating and really tried to show me everything I wanted ... I could not have asked for more!! Endri was wonderful, the tour was wonderful.... I look forward to returning and booking a tour with goaslocal.com for Northern Albania! I would recommend this company to everyone!! In fact, I have!!

Great introduction to Southern Albania - Amazing introduction to southern Albania. The guide Redi was an expert driver and tour guide and showed us all the best spots for sightseeing and photos. Be prepared for lots of driving - luckily the views out the window are breathtaking the whole way there and back.

Fantastic packed trip - Our private tour left from Tirana at 7.30am, we didn’t get back till 9pm so this is a long day. Having said that we loved every minute, comfortable transport, plenty of comfort breaks and an excellent, knowledgeable and friendly guide in Redi. We really feel like we got a genuine insight into Albania and saw many of its beautiful sites. Highlights for us were the Castle at Himare, lunch at Sarandë and the Blue Eye. Albania is a beautiful country. Thank you to Redi for introducing it to us.

Went to Kosovo instead - Didn’t go ahead as only one who had booked this tour. Offered the chance to go to Kosovo instead for same price which I did. Great chance to visit a new country, thanks to the operator for sorting

It was fine. - It was a long day of travelling. We unfortunately got misty weather so the views weren't quite as they could have been. The Blue Eye, Ksamil and Saranda were all lovely as were the smaller towns we drove through. The guide times on the itinerary for each location didn't marry with the actual day. Our stops were shorter. We also didn't spend any time at the castle of Himara. However, we still only got back to Tirana at 8pm. Our guide was fine, monosyllabic in many of his responses. I asked him if it was okay to ask him questions, and he declared that it was but he had to focus on driving so his answers would be short. At lunch, he asked to sit with us (the two of us on the tour were solo travellers) but then didn't chat with us throughout it. Instead he spent his time on his phone and ate in silence. It was a lot of money for a 13hr drive up and down the country in a car with a guide who didn't seem to want to be there and made the day uncomfortable. Luckily for me though I made a friend in the other solo traveller, so for that, it was worth it. I'd spend my €180 on something else.
