Vlore Tours in April 2027

Long a mystery Albania is an undiscovered marvel only a short flight from home. Scenery is stunning and varied with snowcapped panorma's, ancient towns and unspoilt coast. Cycling on quiet roads is a joy, with a real sense of discovery round every corner.

This was a trip that surpassed my expectations. I am not terribly athletic and i was concerned about the cycling but in the end I managed well and the bus was there to help at the hardest bits....It combined stunning scenery, fascinating history, a friendly group that gelled together under the care of exemplary guides.

If your thinking about booking this trip and not sure... Here is my review. With shameful ignorance I knew almost nothing of Albania before I went, Macedonia way... Ex-communist country... I didn't even know the currency however I have come away with a very good impression of the country and it's friendly people, the food, history, geography and scenery.

A brilliant week of suitably challenging cycling through varied rural, mountainous and coastal scenery in a fascinating country. Great food and high standard of accommodation compared to other equivalent trips. From not knowing what to expect of Albania I loved the whole trip and would go back to explore the more mountainous north. Well-maintained hire bikes suitable for the roads and terrain.

A quite outstanding trip that packed so much into a week. The route combines sleepy agricultural areas, grand mountains and spectacular coastline. Varied scenery combined with some excellent places to stop overnight and a couple of interesting sightseeing stops to enjoy aspects of Albania's history in Gjirokaster and Butrint. Inexpensive. Some demanding cycling on excellent bikes.

This is a fantastic trip and it definitely exceeded my expectations! The scenery was beautiful and varied, the food was really delicious and so fresh! The cycling was perfect, a good mix of some more relaxed days with a couple of more challenging days and climbs. The people are super friendly and the guides were very helpful!
