5.00It was an amazing experience. Our guide Artol was so knowledgeable and amiable. He was patient through the hike as well and the views at the end of it all were so beautiful! Definitely give this a try when in Tirane, it’s a good way to spend some time outside the city and see the hidden parts.
Fun Tour, Beautiful Scenery, Great Guide
