    Our tour of Albania was very enjoyable with some great highlights: a very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable guide; wonderful cities such as Tirane, Vlorë and Berat; and interesting choices of cultural and historical sites visited. Nevertheless, there were important shortcomings too: it’s wrong to claim it’s a 10-day tour as it’s really just 8 days as days 1&10 are just airport transfers; lunch breaks on several days went on for too long as it would have been better to spend more time in overnight stays; the hotel stays were too variable in quality in both the rooms offered and breakfast provided; one or two locations could easily have had 2 nights in them by swapping stays in other locations eg 2 nights in Gjirokastër and no nights in Korçë; and why was no WhatsApp group set up to help with communications?

    Overall, an excellent tour. Guide was attentive and informative. Back office organisation was very good. Only minor negative was unexpected payment for 2 exttra nights that I thought were already paid for. This was an error in communication. Lesson here is to be clear about cost and to ensure total payment prior to tour. A slight blight on what otherwise would have been a perfect tour.
