Asked on March 30th, 2025I'd like to organize a 7 or 8 day tour of Albania that combines elements of 3 other tours: 1) Albanian Riviera; Saranda, Ksamil, Himara & Dhermi, 2) Berat and UNESCO sites, 3) Komani Lake & Valbona Valley. There will be 8-10 of us all traveling together in my group. We would start around July 5, 2026, but the start date is flexible around then.

Jonathan
Traveler•Written April 2025Do you recommend Theth national park as more impressive to see than Valbona, if we have only the 8 days? It's possible as few as 8, or as many as 20 people could be in my group... what is the maximum size group you could accommodate? Would there be any options to stay in 4-star or more accommodations? Since this will be in July 2026, when should I plan to book this trip by?
- Choose BalkansOperator•Written April 2025
We can easily accommodate a group size of anywhere from 2 to 25 people. In regards to hotel upgrade we are happy to confirm that we can offer this for you. We would suggest sticking to 4-star accommodations as the request is in advance. We recommend booking as ahead in advance as you can to guarantee securing the best guide, hotels, and vehicle available for the dates.
