Fantastic and Well Organised Tour - We were really keen to visit the Albanian alps while in Tirana for 5 days , but couldn't decide on a when to fit it in. We booked this tour while in the city the morning before and i'm so glad we did. Our guide Nolan and his driver picked us up at 5.45, 30 seconds from our AirBnB and we had a full group of 19. There were frequent photo stops on the drive up before reaching the stunningly beautiful Theth village and heading up for the hike to the blue eye. I'm so glad we didn't attempt to drive this ourselves! The driver handled the mountain roads really well and we felt completely safe. Nolan speaks excellent English and gave us lots of info on Albanian culture and history on the drive up. On the hike, he encouraged people to work to their own abilities and stayed at the back of the group to ensure everyone was taken care of. A few pieces of information that are useful to know - the hike is moderate; not easy, not hard (in the summer months at least. I imagine it's on the easier end of the scale at other times if year). Decent shoes, trainers, or boots are recommended. The water is icy cold, it will take your breath away! The day will last some 15 hours from Tirana in a large group; we returned c.9pm. Useful to have some snacks or breakfast with you due to the early start & to fuel the hike before lunch. And finally, the landscape is stunningly beautiful. A great day with a diverse and interesting group and a great energetic guide: its great value and a wonderful day.

A great tour and overall experience! - So glad I did this tour! It was such a fun day, packed with beautiful scenery and visiting the Blue Eye was well worth the hike. Nolan and our driver were super helpful, even from before we got on the bus and really went above and beyond. Would recommend!!

Knowledgeable and accommodating tour guides! - My friend and I were travelling from Durres Beach to Theth and wanted to explore the area with some guidance as it was our first time in Albania. Nolan and our driver were incredibly accommodating, helpful and knowledgeable- providing historical information and constantly checking in to make sure we were okay! They catered the day to the travellers which was very comforting. Amazing experience- I highly recommend this tour!

Great - It was a small and private tour and Heral did his best to give us a unique experience. He gave us hiking sticks (super helpful) and we had good conversations. Thank you

A full, awesome day of nature and culture! - This tour featured incredible views, historical landmarks and hiking through some of the most beautiful wilderness l've ever encountered, but what really set it apart was our guide, Marjan’s personal connection to the area and the people. We had so much fun and adventure! This is a great way to get to know the compelling splendor of Albania. We felt taken care of at every step. I have been on some really fantastic tours. This one was right there near the top. I would highly recommend it.

One of the best spot in Albania - The view was fantastic. You will feel all the early wake up and tired hiking worth it when you reach the Blue Eye. Our tour guide, Henri was very helpful. One of group lost his purse and passport. Fortunately, he helped him get it back!

10 out of 10 - I can’t say enough good things about this tour! The small group size was perfect, and the tour guide was knowledgeable and enjoyable to talk to. The stops along the day trip were well timed and absolutely beautiful. Pick up and drop off from my Airbnb in Tirana made it that much better. Definitely a young persons tour as the hike was medium level but so much fun.
