A vlore must do - Our trip to Haxhi Ali Cave was easily the highlight of our Vlore visit truly a "great day" from start to finish! We hopped on a speedboat, zipping across the clear waters towards the Karaburun Peninsula. The cave's entrance is impressive, and inside, the water's an incredible, clear blue, perfect for swimming and snorkeling. Learning about its history as a pirate hideout added a fun, intriguing layer.
The adventure continued with stops at secluded beaches along the stunning, wild coastline. It was the perfect mix of thrilling boat ride, serene cave exploration, and relaxing beach time. Everything was well-organized, making for a truly unforgettable experience.

Great experience! - Had a lovely time on this boat tour. Our speedboat driver was very kind and communicated well with us about the time we had at each stop during the journey. Would recommend! But make sure to wear water appropriate footwear.

The perfect boat trip - A fun boat tour full of fun. We had booked the short route online because we thought after 4 hours on a boat you have already seen it again. Very happy that we finally changed to the longer trip of over 8 hours. Sailing was enjoyable with Edison as captain. He is a very experienced skipper who knows exactly what he is doing. In addition, the places we went to were also breathtakingly beautiful. The caves are beautiful and impressive and the beaches are beautiful with the blue sea!
I think we stopped 10 times in total to jump off the boat into the water!
The food was delicious and local. And the beer well cold.
Definitely recommended!

Breathtaking spot! - Haxhi Ali Cave offers crystal-clear waters and a dramatic natural setting. Great for a quick swim and a bit of adventure along the coast.

The trip was okay. - I cannot confirm like many others that the boat tour with music and the tour guide was fun. We sat squeezed in the crowded boat and the guide made an unfriendly and bored impression. He was busy on his cell phone while driving and did not communicate with his guests. The cave was impressive and on the beach of the Karaburun Peninsula it was quite nice.

Cheap boat trip does not give what they advertise with - We were in total 14 people on the boat, that we had to wait in the harbour as it came from somewhere else. The ride was fine though there were no lifewests, there was no music as advertised. We arrived to the cave and the skipper did not say a single word just stopped the boat and that was it - no stories, no information what so ever. There was no snorkeling gear - someone asked, though this was also advertised as included. Skipper even did not tell is that we could swim there - after just standing there for some time we asked if we could swim. After the cave we left for the beach - only word from the skipper did- 2.5hours. Nothing else. We arrived early so there were very few people, but it changed quickly - in the end it was totally packed with people on this extremely tiny beach. Sunbeds cost 20€. Up hill there is restaurant where they serve “local” food- yes, local it was we saw men bearing freshly killed goat to the grilling stand. Toilets are really dirty and without locking door. Boat back went on time - one passenger helped people back onto the boat from the rocky boat bridge. Ride back was bit more pumpy due to waves. So overall it was ok but we did not get the things that were advertised and sad that the beach for relaxing was too crowded and not that clean.

Which is okay - The cave is worth it. Afterwards we will go to a crowded Touri beach where we have to stay for 3 hours. Without information our boat arrived 45 min too late to bring us back to Vlora. Better take a boat tour!

Tha worst service in my life - I'm very dissatisfied with your service! I booked a trip for my family and my friends' family. My family was denied travel because we were with an 11-month-old baby. They argued that there were age restrictions in the description. However, the description of the trip I booked on booking did not contain any information about age restrictions.
After I showed the employee that there was no information about age restrictions, he agreed to refund us. Then he said that the refund would be through booking, since the booking was made through that site.
The next day I wrote to the booking support service, and they said that no one had even reported the incident.
In other words, I was not only denied the service for which I paid €42, but also cheated!!!!
After long discussions, I was eventually refunded part of the money - €28.62, but I did not receive full compensation, as promised by your agency employee.
This is the worst service I've ever seen in my life!!! I wasted my time, arrived on time, followed all the instructions, and they refused to provide me with the service, and even lied to me that they would refund the money, but only part of it was returned!
I spent my time, nerves, and even paid money for it!
If you have any restrictions, then write a clear description so that people who are not suitable do not waste their time and money!
