Amazing trip! - A fantastic trip for anyone who enjoys walking. The views along the route were absolutely stunning and the trail itself was very pleasant and easy to follow. Our guide was incredible funny and friendly. He made sure everyone felt included, answered all our questions and shared interesting stories about the area that really brought the walk to life. Thanks to him, the atmosphere was relaxed and enjoyable and the whole experience felt personal and special. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide☺️

Our experience in Theth was absolutely amazing, and a huge part of that is thanks to our tour guide, Desi. From the very beginning, Desi was extremely professional, friendly, and passionate about what he does. He shared detailed and interesting information about the history, nature, and culture of the area, making every stop truly special.I highly recommend to anyone visiting Theth who wants an unforgettable experience with an excellent guide.

Breathtaking views and fun guide! - We went on a tour with Desi who was an amazing storyteller! He and the driver picked us up in Schkoder around 7:30 in the morning and other guests from Tirana. We liked that it was a relaxed tour + hike. They were very accommodating in case somebody needed a toilet break. The tour ended around 19:30 in Tirana (just to give you an idea about the time).

Great day out - Desi our tour guide was great ! He always made sure we stuck together as a group and ensured our safety for the entire trip. This tour is a great way to see the Blue Eye, although it’s a long day, it’s so worth it !

Great tour through which you get to know the mountains around Theth and a glimpse into culture and history - We had a great tour to Theth and the Blue Eye! Everything was very well organized and our guide Desi was a lot of fun and gave a lot of interesting information. It was a highlight of our trip to Albania and we’d definitely book another tour!

For many tourists - Nice trip. Good guide and driver. But so many tourists that it is difficult to experience nature. But otherwise a fantastic beautiful place.
