Beautiful view!! - This excursion is not to be missed to discover this jewel that is the lake of bovilla. Having a good physical condition despite everything because it climbs hard to reach the summit but the guide ensures that the pace suits the largest number with moments of break!

Lovely walk beautiful lake - Beautiful lake. Nice but very steep hike up to the visiting point. Not for the faint hearted but easyish if you go steady. Our guide Endri was excellent.

Worth every penny! - Beni was an amazing tour guide. Great organisation and individual pick up. In my opinion the number 1 must see when visiting Tirana. The guided tour was worth every penny and i do NOT regret driving up this awful road in my rental car. Trust me, being driven up here and having no responsibility is way more comfortable. Overall 10/10 and of course the Lake is also beautiful! And getting up there is even easier than some parts of the French Alps. PS: I added a foto of the van that picks you up so can see that it is a decent and comfortable vehicle ;)

Nice mini hike, guide commentary superb - The guide Artol made this trip. Learnt so much about Albania’s recent history and he speaks from the heart. Scenery is lovely , only complaint is spending a long time picking up folk from hotels - around Tirana can take an age esp if 18 in a group. Only suggestion would be to ask everyone to meet at maybe one or two set meeting places

Nice tour, stunning views, great local guide - This was a nice and well-organised tour with stunning views. The hike up was fun. Our tour-guide (Aniled) was from Albania which really added to the experience bc of all his knowledge about the country. The timing of the pick-up and also the communication were excellent. Thanks Aniled!!

The gometi mountain hiking - Actually the tour was very satisfying and Aniled the tour guide was very accommodating and supportive to everyone in the group. We loved the view, program, timeline, and stops. I would definitely recommend the same program with Aniled.

A view that pays off every step - The excursion was a wonderful experience, made even more interesting by the Heral guide, always kind and helpful, with many historical ideas along the way. The climb was quite intense, so I recommend tackling it with appropriate clothing and in good physical condition. The effort, however, has paid off: the view from the top is breathtaking. An excursion that I recommend to those who love nature, history and rewarding challenges.
