5.00It was an amazing experience to have , also our guide was amazing she explained many things and was open to answer any questions even the one who is not related to the blue eye. The food there is good with good prices , if u have time u should give it a try. The coffee tea are not the best but sure with that view it counts.

4.00You are NOT allowed to swim in this water. The land train runing from the car park to the blue eye can be crazy busy. Luckily our guide organised us private transport to the eye because 2 of us were suffering from bad knees. The place is lovely, with nice cafe/restaurants overlooking the water.
Not to be missed

5.00Wow!! Our tour guide was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and punctual. He gave us plenty of time to take pictures and explore, which made the experience even more enjoyable. He greeted us with a smile and made it very easy to find him at the pickup location. We were a group of 8, and everything was accommodated smoothly without any issues. Highly recommend! If you want, I can make it sound more formal, more enthusiastic, or shorter 👍
Great tour

5.00Was a well organised trip. The bus was on time, and we had a great tour guide who gave us a nice history/info about albania and the area we were going to see on the bus. When we arrived we were able to walk (scooter or car train) to the blue eye which took around 15-20 mins up and down little hills on concrete. When we arrived there was plenty of time for photos, walking and exploring.
Family Trip!

Nice tour- with caveats

4.00This is a great tour and definitely worth the money, but a few critical things to keep in mind. First of all, bring cash!! We stopped here on a cruise and didn’t have any problem using credit cards for everything at other stops, but no one in Albania takes credit cards and the ATMs have a high fee. Secondly, as other reviews have stated, you CANNOT swim in blue eye. I should have read more of the comments to see, but I saw the pictures on the description of people literally backflipping into water and assumed it was for this tour and not some random stock photo. Never assume, I guess. When I told the guide that the tour description said swimming, he seemed really confused and skeptical. Every single person on my tour was in a swimsuit so I guess we were all misled. That said, the blue eye is beautiful, the guide was very nice, and it’s a great tour, just keep all this in mind.
Highly recommend
