What a great experience

5.00My guide, Markel, was really good. He explained everything very well and in a calm manner. If you had any questions, you could ask, but usually, I didn't have to ask anything because everything was explained so clearly. It is definitely worth booking the tour, and it is absolutely worth coming here."

5.00My husband and I did the walking tour of Tirana with Markel. We were a group of five so it was easy to ask questions which were always graciously answered. Our guide’s English was easy for us to understand and we thoroughly enjoyed the tour. Recommend.
Very Relaxing and Enjoyable Guided Stroll.
