Great tour and well organized. All of the hikes were picturesque and worthwhile. The accommodations were love. Our tour guide, Redon, was very knowledgeable about the area and the trails, he couldn't have been better. The only thing that could have been better was a take away lunch provided on the last day. With hiking, the 8am breakfast didn't last until 4:30 when we finally had a chance for food in Shkoder (I brought snacks, but I didn't want those, I wanted a meal, and I don't have a large appetite).

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.
