Additional Information

Why not visit an extra country? Until not so long ago, it was impossible to visit Albania because of a strict communistic regime. It was even called “North Korea” of Europe. However nowadays, the country is liberated, you will have the opportunity to see the differences between the neighbors, North Macedonia and Albania.

Trace the visible remaining’s of the dictatorship that ruled Albania together. By bus you will be brought to the city of Pogradec and take a coffee break before exploring the city further. Afterwards you will enjoy a lunch and further your journey towards the idyllic fishing village of Lin. Active yourself with a short walk in the nature surrounding this village.

excellent value for money and a very interesting day out - one of the best value days out we have had. The trip was well organised with pick up locations and the driver and tour guide were excellent. The guide was really informative giving us lots of information and facts about Macedonia and Albania. It was good to visit a modern city and also a more traditional village/ The lunch provided was also very good

Great excursions! - I took a number of excurisons with KTM Voyage booked through Tui, and in every case the local staff were incredibly professional and knowlable, and the service was great. In terms of the specific Albania trip, this goes to an authentic modern 21st centry Albanian City, as well as a smaller pretty Albanian village, and included a very nice three course lunch. They clearly care a lot about putting on good service and interesting tours/events.
