Fantastic tour with history and nature! - Fun and interesting tour with our nice guide Marsia. We booked outside high season and therefore got the tour to ourselves and did not have to queue for anything. Marsia was very knowledgeable and answered all our questions. We had a great day!

Loved this day trip, would do again for sure - Loved the castle, history, and town experiences. Wonderful guide, everything was well planned and well executed for the day. Super cool time!

Beautiful experience!!! - This was such a beautiful experience. If you love history and enjoy guided tours through old historic towns, you will absolutely love this. What made it feel especially perfect was how easily we were able to access places like the bunker and the castle without waiting in long lines. Our guide Marsia was incredibly sweet, knowledgeable, and very insightful. She truly knew her history and took the time to answer all of our questions. She also gave us wonderful recommendations for traditional foods, which we really appreciated. Also, since they offer free pickup from any hotel or home in Saranda, they reached out to me through WhatsApp prior to the tour and we communicated pick up time. They picked us up directly from our hotel, which made the experience incredibly convenient. The drive was about 45 minutes and very comfortable with air conditioning. Along the way, the guide shared interesting bits of history and background about the area, making the ride both informative and enjoyable. There is quite a bit of walking involved, so I definitely recommend wearing comfortable clothes and shoes, along with a hat. Bringing a mini fan was a lifesaver and something I’m very glad I had! The price was absolutely worth it for the experience, and the overall atmosphere was welcoming and great from start to finish. 10/10 would recommend.

Unforgettable experience, long walks n breathtaking views, - The trip was amazing, the guide , Noel, was really informative and professional, he gave a really great and comprehensive insight into thw Albanian history, the castle and the culture, The monastery along the way was connected to Berat Monastery and the similarities were striking, and the place beautiful,,, The castle was a whole other story, so many places to explore n see, we spent whole two hours gping from one place to another around the castle, then walked around the bazaar, n went to a resturant, Kodra, awesome view, tho they only accepted cash.. Some places in the bazzar r more expensive than the others, so check a few before buying something, if u want to get a good deal. All in all the trip was unforgettable, a lot of walking, and sweating but the weather was rainy so we were good, Everything was nicely planned and arranged so 10/10 will want to come again

A day well spent - In over 40 years of travel this was the best guided tour ever undertaken. Marsia our guide was exceptional- knowledgeable, informed, interesting and above all passionate about her country and home town Gjirokastër. We asked many questions and got fulsome and interesting answers. As Scots we enjoyed her wit and sense of humour. If you are even remotely interested in history the visit to the Cold War bunker is a must - the size, scale and the way it has not been prettified for tourists is fascinating. You get a feel for the outlook and mentality of the pre 1992 regime. The visit to the historic family house is also a must see. Highly recommended, memorable and great value.

Enlightening and... - Enlightening and interesting tour. Time well spent, and well timed, in each location. Marsia is a fantastic, informative, and engaging guide. Very enjoyable day.

Marcia was amazing. Thank you - Our guide Marcia and driver were amazing ! Marcia is very knowledgeable we learned so much. It was a great day. I would recommend.

Fantastic - Fantastic tour with Marsia. Lovely guide with so much knowledge. Great info and recommendations too. Cold War tunnel is a highlight!! You won’t regret this tour.

Great day - I agree with others’ opinions of Marsia. She was interesting and engaging. We learned a lot about her home town and had fun.

Worth every penny! - This is one of the most informative tours we have ever done. Our guide (Maria I believe) was very knowledgeable and thorough. She was able to answer every question we asked and had a great understanding of the history of Albania.
