Great vineyard tour! - I had a fantastic trip! The boat ride on the lake offered breathtaking views — the scenery was absolutely beautiful and so peaceful. One of the highlights of the trip was the amazing food. I’ve officially become a huge fan of Albanian cuisine after this experience. Every dish was full of flavor and wonderfully presented. Highly recommend this trip to anyone who loves nature and good food.

A Perfect day! - Excellent experience. From start to finish. Mario contacted day before to confirm pick-up at hotel. Very knowledgeable and answered all of our questions about Albania customs and history. Winery was lovely. Started tasting with a boat trip in lake and a charcuterie board, followed with remainder of wine testing at outdoor restaurant.

Wine tasting experience! - Best wine tasting experience ever! Mario picked us up at the hotel, drove us to the winery, gave us a little history, stopped at an ice cream shop, and finally at the winery! We toured the vineyards, green house, and went on a boat ride. Finally we sat and enjoyed a wine tasting with appetizers! Excellent summer salad and various local foods! Excellent experience! Great food, amazing wine, thank you for a fabulous experience! I would strongly recommend this experience! Thank you!
