Very good - I rate the excursion in Tirana very positively. The guide was nice and helpful from the beginning, communication with him was completely easy and he seemed natural. In addition, he speaks Czech very well, so everything was very understandable.
I really enjoyed the excursion itself - I learned a lot of interesting things that I probably wouldn't have discovered on my own otherwise. I liked that it wasn't just "recited", but it had a head and a heel.
What I probably appreciate most is that the guide willingly answered my additional questions and even recommended what to visit during my stay in Tirana. That was useful.
I definitely recommend it.
