I'm from Saranda. I'm a natural local guide and I'm really passionated to welcome the guests.
Actually I have designed unique experiences which are totally different in a great harmony with each other such as knowledges about our culture and traditions, visiting archeological nearby spots and exploring the hidden corners of nature.
Every visiting of those spots will be the most of your journey where you can take many pics.
That experience is about having awesome fun by discovering the coolest places you haven't seen anywhere.

Fantastic tour and exceptional guide

5.00This was a wonderful tour thanks to my fantastic guide, Ari. I just had one day in Sarande, taking the ferry in from Corfu, and wanted to make the most of it. Ari messaged with me before my arrival to coordinate a pick-up location, customized the tour to my needs, and then gave a great lesson in Albanian history and culture during our time together. He was so friendly and full of interesting facts about the locations we visited. For me, the Blue Eye was truly exceptional and worth the tour in and of itself, but the views from Lekuresi Casle and the gorgeous blue waters of Ksamil were also lovely. If you just have a day in Sarande, I highly recommend this tour and I enthusiastically endorse Ari as a guide. Thanks, Ari!

5.00We very much enjoyed this tour. Our guide was super and we loved talking with him about history, culture and politics!! The Blue Eye was amazing and the views from Lekursi Castle are unsurpased. We had a bit of a mixup finding each other at first (our fault) but we were rescued in no time. Very fun tour.
Fun day in Albania

5.00We had a wonderful half day tour with Ari. He was an incredibly knowledgeable, fun guide who kept us interested and entertained. We learned a lot about Albania and saw some beautiful sites. The best was our seafood lunch on the water. We highly recommend this tour and Ari!
Great short adventure near Sarandë!

5.00A great trip! We had a limited time being cruise ship guests to the area and our friendly tour guide was great at making sure we were back in plenty of time as indicated on the tour timings. A really nice potter about 3 lovely spots and well worth it for us to make the most of our short time docked in Sarandë. Absolutely loved the blue eye, worth the journey out - it was stunning and our guide kindly bought us a drink in the cafe at the site. Would recommend, you'll be in good hands! (Picture of us and our guide in the blue eye photo).
Amazing tour for people of all ages!

5.00First of all, I’m VERY late writing this review. our trip as in September 2022 and I forgot to leave a review when we returned home. Ari was such a great tour guide and we had such an amazing and unique experience with him….that I’m going back to write it now. Ari goes way above and beyond to customize the tour. He makes an effort be sure every person on the tour has something special for them. We were 4 adults age 55-73. We had a wide range of athletic ability and interest but Ari asked questions to understand what each person enjoyed and MAN did he deliver. The Blue Eye, 2 different castles with tons of history, shopping at a awesome little village, a custom lunch outside with a view that is etched in all of our memories and a stop at his favorite beach (which we loved). Don’t hesitate to book with Ari, you will not be disappointed!!
