5.00We've been picked up punctually right down our apartment. The road to Shkoder was long and busy, but Daniel managed to make us at ease and enjoy the journey, being fun a d careful. Rozafa Castle, the Lake and Skoder city are definitely wonderful and worth to be visited, once again Daniel has been really prepared giving us all the explanations. And for all of you planning to visit Albania, the history behind this country is a super interesting story. Very recommended Thank you Go As Local and super thank you Daniel
