    This small group tour was the perfect way to explore the Balkans! From the lively streets of Tirana to the beautiful cities of Sarajevo and Belgrade, we got to experience so much in just a few days. The itinerary was perfectly balanced, allowing for plenty of time to explore each location, and the small group size made the experience much more intimate. I loved it!

    Really interesting and fabulous tour. We were picked up promptly from the hotels as agreed, full days of program and entered the next hotel round 6 pm. We got guide Eleanora for Belgrade, she was very knowledgeable. The rest of the tour were lucky to be guided by Elton, who is really marvelous, informative and courteous especially to my wife who has minor walking problems on uneven ancient streets. Elton found always a good and comfortable place for her to wait when I got a really private tour further into the castles and fortresses.
