Outstanding trip - We had an awesome trip with Erald Xeka to the Vjosa river and the salinas and on the back to a roller colony. The birds we saw were spectacular and included many species that do not occur in western/northern Europe. Erald knows the birds of Albania extremely well. He identifies birds from great distance and has an excellent ear for calls. He provides a lot of background information on behaviour, migration and ecology. We could not have had a better field guide! Looking forward to a future trip on birds of Albania over several days with him!

A Great Day in the Field - The Albanian Ornithological Society (AOS) arranged a private, one-day tour of Diviaka Lagoon led by their outstanding staff which resulted in 50+ species, including nesting Dalmatian Pelicans, waders, shorebirds, birds of prey and passerines. Our exceptional guides, Taulent and Klajdi, generously shared their deep knowledge of birds and habitat. We learned about the importance and challenges of wildlife conservation in the Balkans, and AOS’ research focus and methods. Their responsiveness to our myriad questions also broadened our understanding of the history and culture of this fascinating country. AOS recently celebrated its 10th anniversary as a leading non-profit, bird conservation organization and we were pleased to know that our tour contributed both to their important work and their bottom line. This is among the best private birding experiences we have had.

After many years again a great excursion - An excursion with you, or two days with you were very interesting and stimulating for the whole group. After the end of the entire excursion, which lasted 13 days, the colleagues said that NP Theht and Shkoder Lake were among the most interesting locations that we could see during the excursion.

Wonderful birding tour in Albania with a great professional ornithologist - I booked a 2 and 1/2 day tour in Albania. I was picked me up at the airport. It was a wonderful birding tour in Albania with a true professional ornithologist (Erald), one of the best I've met! The material provided (bins and spotting scope) was of good quality. Birdwatching in Albania is great. I got to see some amazing lagoons and many new species for me. Without the help of my guide I would never have seen so many birds and learned so much. I got some great photos. I strongly recommend it.

Birding trip Karavasta Nat Park. - We used Albanian Ornithological Society for our visit to Divjaka-Karavasta National Park. We were looked after magnificently on the day by Taulant, and arranged by Julian. We saw the birds we expected to see, and a few more as a bonus! The service given by these guys was first class and we will go straight to them on our next visit. Thankyou AOS.

A fantastic "Birding Tour" - A truly exciting birding tour! From 1st to 5th November with AOS, accompanied by our guide Erald who was with us from arrival at Tirana airport until departure, guiding us through the evocative habitats of salt marshes, lagoons, wetlands, pine forests and forests in the National Parks of Divjaka_Karavasta, Logara, the Gran Park of Tirana, in the Protected areas such as VJose -Narte, of Orikumi to observe the specimens that usually live there (pelicans, flamingos, shags, almost all ardeites) and migratory ones. Erald, an ornithologist animated by great passion and dedication, very good, competent, professional, very empathetic and friendly, made us discover Albania, its beauties and the great variety of birds that populate it. A special mention to the Association for the conservation and protection work it carries out and because it promptly responded to our email accepting our requests.
