    · May 18th, 2024
    I would highly recommend this tour, and, the Choose Balkans company. From the moment we touched down, to the last day, every detail was handled seamlessly. Our guide, Illir, a former teacher, is well versed in the history, geography and culture of the Balkans. My wife and I had a terrific trip!
