- LSLudwig· August 18th, 2024If you still want to go after reading this review - the first review in 1 year.. go in october. The other months can be until 40 degrees... (to hot for cycling in the mountains) If you are a solo traveller, and have questions about the group composition, be aware that the company can give you false information to persuade you to join the tour (that happend to me - I had a very sweet group of people but 5 retired couples is a surprise when you are expecting a group of people between 40 and 60 years with two other solo travellers that are not there . I only spend 2 days on the tour, I had to leave in the morning of day 2 because of family reasons. (I didnt see or touched a bike and didnt join the group in the minivan on day 2). The company understand it, but they refuse to give my any kind of compensation. (didnt had a cancelation insurance - thats my fault, but it is still a bit of a shame "to sponsor" them without getting anything - not even a new booking, back). The company prefered that I would write this 'not to good but honest review').Show moreCycle Albania commented on this reviewI am sorry to read this review , but as we explained , If you leave the tour in the middle because of family reasons , we can not reimburse you or offer you a new tour , as we have already paid everything , all the costs in advance for your trip .

- DBDAVID· May 12th, 2023Everything was great, the country, the food and tour guides. The airlines miss directed my luggage so I only had the clothes I was wearing. Other guests and guides loaned me items of clothing until I could buy a few things. This was the first cycling tour I have gone on and I really enjoyed it. DavidShow moreTrip date: April 2023
- JPJohn Graham· June 11th, 2022Brilliant country Brilliant guide and driver Brilliant food Great price Huge variety of hotels and locations Other guests helped make the holiday too Mutually supportive Don't be afraid to choose e bike or use van. Can be tough at times I can vouch for that. Plus the heat! In June Book direct with cycle Albania rather than a big company they supply please Go now before Albania changes too much Decent bikes and e bikes with good supportShow moreCycle Albania commented on this reviewThank you for your feedback .

- JBJohn· June 11th, 2022Great tour. Arjan and Vissy were perfect guide and back up vehicle. Excellent food all through. Tough riding as very hot, would suggest an Ebike unless you are very competent.Show moreCycle Albania commented on this reviewThank you John for the Feedback.

- KSKerstin· June 3rd, 2022Automatic translation available in English. View in EnglishDie Tour an sich ist sehr schön. Herausfordernd in sportlicher Hinsicht, für die, die sich gerne verausgaben wollen, eine wunderbare Landschaft, gut organisierte Abläufe. Zwei Kritikpunkte habe ich. Zum einen war der Guide nicht gut. Zum anderen hatten wir eine Teilnehmerin, die vom ersten Tag an fürchterlich gehustet hat. Der Guide meinte, er hätte sie um einen Coronatest gebeten, den sie aber abgelehnt hätte. Cycle Albania könne sie aber nicht zu einem Test zwingen. Das kann ich einfach nicht glauben. Die ganze Gruppe hat versucht, sich von ihr zu distanzieren, was natürlich nicht immer möglich ist. Ich persönlich habe mich in ihrer Nähe sehr unwohl gefühlt.Show moreCycle Albania commented on this reviewThank you for your Feedback . As the Guide already mentioned , we can NOT force somebody to take a Covid test only because she coughed . You can also have Covid and never cough.Trip date: May 2022

- KHKirsty· May 11th, 2022We had a truly brilliant time with Cycle Albania. The country blew us away with its wild beauty, majestic mountains, and warm-hearted, kind people. Erlis, our guide, was fantastic. He was encouraging, informative and dealt with all our varying abilities so well. Likewise Dhani, the van driver/bike fixer/snack provider was brilliant. Nothing was too much trouble for him. The tour was varied, fascinating and challenging in just the right way. The choice of accommodation delighted, from mountain farm to beachside hotel...and wherever we went the food was out of this world. It was an unforgettable 8 days in the saddle...a bike is the perfect way to explore this wonderful country.Show moreCycle Albania commented on this reviewThank you so much for your review, Kirsty! I am so glad you liked Albania and cycling with us. Is always nice to hear that the Guide Erlis and driver Tani did their Job well.Trip date: May 2022

Traveler•Written August 2024Currently we're down to four people. The 1000 m and 1500m climbs have scared some people off. We will be meeting with a fellow who did the bike tour and loved it. Once we've spoken to him, I will contact you again. We live in Edmonton and have only done small hills. I don't own an e-bike but have ridden one on hills. I quite liked it.
