- Cherie· June 10th, 2025My companion and I have been fortunate to travel extensively and we both agreed Albania is one of our favorite destinations. This tour was a wonderful introduction to Albania and we enjoyed every aspect of it. Our guide, Elton, was excellent. He patiently answered all our questions and even shared locales that weren’t on the itinerary. His commentary made the trip interesting and informative. We highly recommend visiting Albania before it becomes overrun by tourists.Show more

Asked on April 9th, 2025Do you also offer a Tour with Komani, Valbona and Teth?
- Choose BalkansOperator•Written April 2025
This three-day adventure is a perfect blend of rural villages, wild nature and a scenic ferry ride. You will experience a serious shot of adrenaline while hiking from Theth to Valbona. We are happy to inform you that we can assist with this tour but please note that this tour on end of May might be subject to weather conditions. With today's global warming you never know what to expect. The trail from Theth to Valbona might be closed due to the snow. If in any case the trail is not doable, please be aware that we will never put you on risk so we will adjust the itinerary of only staying in Valbona instead.

Asked on September 28th, 2024Is this hike okay to do by solo? Is there other hikers end of October as well? Is the weather conditions mostly good end of October?
- Choose BalkansOperator•Written September 2024
During October we have departures. Temperatures usually range from the mid-teens to low 20s Celsius, while nights can be cooler, often dropping to around 10°C. Rainfall can be more frequent as the month progresses, especially towards the end, so it's a good idea to be prepared for some wet weather. There are hikers during this period of time.
