Great introduction to both the history and the geography of Albania. In one short day, you go from the mountains to the sea and capture the wide experience of Albanian history. Adnan the guide is a cool and pleasant guy. Much recommended.

Kruja and the Skanderbeg Castle Museum were very interesting and the town of Durres, by the sea, with its amphetheater, was well worth the visit. Ali our tour guode was informative and knowledgeable. He was also a very safe driver. Thank you Ali!

Adi was a great guide and it was very interesting to hear of his experiences living in Albania. The car was very comfortable and we had a great time visiting Kruja and Durres. Highly recommended

Skerdi was a fantastic host who was attentive to me needs. The tour moved at a great pace. Kruja Castle and the museum were fantastic. The vista from the castle was particularly beautiful.

Both Kruja Castle and the museum were great, and there was a lot of information about Albania history. Durness was pretty. Unfortunately our guide seemed to need to be back in Tirana for another pickup so we were rushed through the whole thing, and had no time for food or drink, we had just 20 mins in both places free time.

Our guide Adi was wonderful and made the trip enjoyable and informative. The Kruja castle and museum were the best part of the tour, but we did also enjoy the stop in Durres. The only thing keeping this from being a 5 star review is the amount of time spent driving between locations. While Adi did continue to teach us about the surrounding areas we drove through, we would have preferred to have visited only one of the 2 locations and had a more in-depth experience.

The guide was smashing and very informative about everything. He contacted us previous to the trip giving relevant information regarding pick up times. He was a safe driver.

Kruja is very interresting. The visit of the museum is great. You can avoid Durrës. The guide was friendly. He know every body.

Besnik, our tour guide was excellent. Both the Castle and Durrēs are worth the trip. Relaxed lunch looking the Adriatic Sea. We highly recommend the tour and Besnik.
