Albania Tours and Trips for Seniors

Balkan’s Route – Excellent trip from start to finish. Everything mentioned in the itinerary was covered, and the whole journey was very well organized. The guides were great—friendly and knowledgeable—and the hotels were comfortable. Overall, a smooth and enjoyable experience.

We took this trip in September. From the moment we arrived we knew we would have a good time. Our guide Artur made us feel very welcome, with his knowledge and humour. I didn't know what to expect with Albania, only that it was a beautiful country and it was opening up for tourism. Despite some negative reports of crime etc, we wanted to go before it got to busy.. the history of the county is fascinating. There is so much to see and learn and Artur was a font of knowledge. We became engrossed in the history, the different periods of time with castles and ruins to it up back up, to the present time. Our driver Dion was brilliant at traversing the very high and winding roads. He was very helpful to us all and great at taking group photographs. We loved the food and there was a great choice, all freshly cooked. The hotels were very comfortable. And the views. After each view, we didn't think they could get better, but the did. A wonderful place to visit. We loved Albania. I could write more, as there is so much to say about Albania.

I encourage anyone who wants to learn more about Albania to take this cultural tour. I hope you are lucky and get Artur as your guide and Diu as your driver. These men are pros. I loved traveling around the country to visit several UNESCO World Heritage sites, small towns, the national forest, and the coast line. Albania is changing so quickly as it commercially develops. You can still experience the old Albania through its traditional costumes, dances, and small towns.

Excellent educational historical scenic Albanian journey. Our group leader Ed was extremely knowledgeable and shared stories of living under communism. Our driver Di Di was a joy to be around. Not only was he an excellent driver on the long windy roads but he brought so much fun and joy to our group.

Beautiful country with spectacular scenery, great food and wonderful historical sites. The country is beautiful and blessed with all type of scenery, lakes, mountains, rivers and beautiful seaside. Food is delicious with influences from Italy and Greece, and it is quite cheap. It also has a very interesting history with a lot of historical sites going back to the Greeks and Romans. All of this was made possible by a great tour leader, Artur Lumani, who made everything possible with his professionalism and care for his clients.
