Great tour, thank you! - Berg did a great job driving around safely and pointing out historical and local references. He was knowledgeable and friendly, and I learned a lot from him about the historical sites as well as the people and culture of Albania. Would definitely recommend as it was a great tour.

Fantastic Day Tour of Berat and Area - This tour was perfect. We were picked up at our hotel and driven to Lake Belsh and Berat where we saw the castle, museum, and historic city. Bergi and Clarence also took us to a local winery where we had a tour and tasting. The guides were informative and willing to talk about a variety of topics including local history and politics. We had a great day.

Rediscovering Berat with hey Albania - As an Albanian, I thought I knew Berat, but Hey Albania showed me a whole new side of this incredible city. Their deep knowledge of Berat’s history and culture brought places like Berat Castle and the Onufri Museum to life. Their passion and great recommendations, including trying tavë kosi, made the experience unforgettable. I highly recommend Hey Albania for locals and visitors alike!

Pleasant trip - We had a pleasant time on our trip to Berat, however it didn’t meet our expectations based on what was in the itinerary and didn’t feel like we got the value for what we paid. We picked this trip because it included a wine tasting. We did have a delicious lunch, but did not have a wine tasting. The museum was a headset audio guide instead of by the guide, and we didn’t get much historical context on most of the other attractions. The castle, city, and scenery were beautiful and we met some nice travelers on the tour with us.
