Great experience - Our tour guide was Aniled. A nice guy who shared not only his love for Albania
It’s mostly a natural place. very hilly with people scattered throughout in their own habitats.
It can be a long day out but I think it’s worth it

Interesting and perfect - I thank the driver and the ORGEST guide, very prepared, attentive and helpful, patiently contacted the latecomers and at every restart of the bus checked that we had all got back on.
For itinerary preferences I chose the tour in English, and I must say that ORGEST speaks very well, but also speaks good Italian, and the French and Spanish speakers present took care to leave at least written information through Whatsapp, which must also be used to give / have confirmations and updates on pickup locations and times, which, ATTENTION: depending on the needs may differ and are flexible.
Tour excellent value for money, worth a visit, unfortunately short, by speedboat to the twin islands in front of Ksamil and the Blue Eye (Syri i Kalter): for the magic and harmony of the place, the cold regenerating bath...
On the advice of the ORGEST guide excellent lunch at the Trident restaurant in Ksamil, and dinner at the autogrill (at normal prices).

Highlights of Albania - A fun tour with the must see pieces of Albania! Our driver was professional and our guide very friendly.
The day starts with an impressive drive to the famous resort of Ksamil, followed by Durres and the Blue Eye. These are really highlights you can't miss. The tour takes longer than described and is worth it

Beautiful Day in South Albania - Ervin is an awesome tour guide! Communication was great. He offered a range of suggestions for eating and activities in all the places we went. It was a rainy day but we made the best of it and it turned out to be a spectacular day! Blue Eye was beautiful even in the drizzling rain. The area around was picturesque. The sun came out for us at Ksamil and it was an amazing time at the beach. Ervin was kind enough to escort me to my hotel as I was worried because I was alone. Thank you Ervin as I said you are awesome!

Orgest a guarantee - I went on this hike on September 9.
Orgest speaks very good Italian, he explained a lot about the history of Albania during the trip, which was really interesting even if tiring because of the long transfers.
Ksamil and Blu Eye must see, Saranda a little less.
In the following days Orgest was very helpful recommending places and places to visit during my holiday in Tirana
Thanks for everything
