Great trip and a great tour leader. Loved it all.
I have one concern to share - prior to my trip I had contacted Outdoor Albania to see if I could borrow or rent hiking poles. They said they would make the arrangements and give them to my tour leader. This did not happen as promised. You need hiking poles on this trip - especially the section from Valbona to Theth. Fortunately it still worked out as a I was able to borrow a pole from another on the trip and also used a stick from the forest! I was disappointed that Outdoor Albania did not follow through as promised. Other than that it was a perfect week in a very beautiful part of the world.

Get to the heart of Albanian culture.
Delve beyond the sheep-dotted green landscapes to the cities and villages that span the country, all the way from Tirana to Saranda. Mingle with locals in rustic Agrotourisms, pick up a souvenir in the Neck of the Bazaar in Gjirokaster, drive along the Albanian Riviera, and walk across the historic Butrint. After a week of exploring, you’ll leave feeling like a local (if you can even bear to leave at all)

Loved the tour & our tour leader (Marty) was fantastic. We enjoyed every part of this tour from the history, the relics, museums, guided tours. The Monasteries of Meteora & the small town of Kalampaka were something else & the amazing day trips from the beautiful islands where we swam from the boat & from the gorgeous beaches was yet another highlight. This tour went way beyond our expectations & I would highly recommend.
A boat trip through this spectacular coastline is a must! We swam in crystal clear warm seas, anchored in small villages, ate at some wonderful restaurants eating fresh fish and lazed around. If you want a relaxing journey- this is it! We had only 6 people onboard which was nice. You make make a food kitty and buy groceries the first night to feed yourselfs for breakfast, lunch and snacks- in hindsight, I would have brought some food to share from Split where the store has more options- you can always get fresh bread in the ports for sandwiches. All in all- a great trip!

Beautiful weather and scenery in a part of Europe that gets easily overlooked. Lots of uphill cycling but you do get the long downhills as compensation. The guides Dhimitri and Juli were great - always helpful and Juli (also the driver) scuttling back and forth to ensure everyone was OK and had enough water. Would recommend this trip and the local provider Cycle Albania.

I loved the opportunity to undertake a yacht sailing voyage for a week in safe hands, with good company and a good variety of interesting land excursions. For me the highlight was the nights a5 anchor in isolated bays with the opportunity to dive off the boat into crystal blue waters.

Very comfortable hotel with excellent food, especially breakfast buffet. Knowledgeable and personable guide who was able to adapt the itinerary depending on weather conditions. Great walking trails with varied features eg forest, lakeside, waterfalls and well planned breaks for a coffee, cake etc. Efficient travel arrangements. Locality beautiful with some shops and good restaurants for free evenings. Very enjoyable trip.

A lot of togetherness. If you?re going on this trip, be prepared for close quarters, shared duties, and a lot of time together. If that?s what you signed up for, then expect a fabulous journey to the Cyclades in Greece.

We got so much more out of it than what we expected for such good value. Matt is a very intelligent, helpful, professional and diplomatic tour leader and we wish him well for any of his future plans. The coach driver Babios was superb as was the coach.

It was the most amazing experience of my life, to date! I love that everything was pretty much planned for me. I didn't have to worry about details. We were given a few options on activities, which was perfect. I would highly recommend anyone doing a trip with G and I can't wait for another one myself.
