Do you provide a supporting invitation letter for visa?

We would be happy to have you join us but we can not provide a visa invitation as it is not allowed for us.

We wanted to find out if we can extend our tour by 1 day to explore the Albania Riveria. Can you please let us know if there are more interesting attractions in this tour extension compared to Day 2 of your tour? If not, can you recommend any other tour extensions for 1-2 days? We are mostly interested in culture & outdoor activities. Also, one of us is a vegetarian (eggs ok; no fish / meat) - would the food options include anything more than salads / bread & cheese?

Regarding the vegetarian option, in most places you will have plenty of choices as Albania is becoming more aware of these options. If you are looking to add more days, I would suggest "Best of Albania – 6 days Multidays tour of Nature and Culture". We should keep in mind that the tours can be private or shared. The private option is more expensive but has a guaranteed departure. The shared option requires 4 participants at least.

Excellent. Maximum use of time - 12 to 14 hour days -- for each of the 3 expensive days was ideal for me. Tour guide / driver was courteous to clients and 3rd parties. Cleverly accommodated the three mobile, younger clients and the 2 slower, older clients during walking tours. Very knowledgeable guide -- took us on a better walking tour of Orchid than a previous tour that I took with another tour company a week earlier.
