A day in a Jeep - We made this trip with jeep saranda agency located near the seafront and is run by two Italians.
It was very nice we were 4 plus the little Maltese spank 4 years (was very good and almost all the time in the carrier) for added security.
Our very good driver but also the others.
We stopped to eat in a nice place with panoramic terrace
The trip includes several stops including blue eye and a beautiful beach and the castle ...
The only stop we will take away from the village is maybe instead an even fast stop in Borsh which is wonderful shame is not in the tour.
Anyway, we had fun!

Best tour ever - The tour was amazing! Albania is so welcoming and coming from America we didn’t expect to love Albania so much. The staff was so kind and picked/drop off at the perfect location. My favorite part was probably the off road jeep experience which was a lot of fun! We all stayed together in a large group with 6 jeeps total. The Albanian family style lunch was very good and it was all homemade. We passed by and stopped at multiple places where it is important to go see. It is a very long day but it’s filled with a lot of fun! When I come back I will be doing this tour again!

Nice day trip with highlights, but long in the jeep for this. - Good experienced driver who managed to conquer the beautiful off-road very controlled. It was a beautiful day trip with very nice views. But the food was not as idyllic as is outlined, it was just tasty traditional food in a restaurant run by an Albanian family. The swimming was very nice and in a beautiful place. Blue eye was very beautiful.
We did come home covered in dust satisfied but also exhausted. Spent a lot longer in the jeep than I thought.
