5.00We had a great experience on this tour. We got plenty of history lessons, stopped to see bunkers in a field upon entering Albania, toured Tirana, and explored Kruje. In Tirana and Kruje, and tour was sort of freeform, and after seeing some places, we had some free time to explore other places on our own. We had a great time!
