Especially that we saw on the map that coral site and other natural worth seeing spots are nearby. Still we took the positive side of it and ejoyed what we got.”

“Wow. Most amazing experience in Albania. The best guides, the best music, the best boat captain/driver. Saying “we had so much fun” is an UNDERSTATEMENT. I really cannot express how much of a once in a lifetime experience this was. Seemed like the boat had an unlimited supply of beer and ice cold drinks. They served us homemade cheese burek and apples and nuts later on. We can’t wait to come back to Vlorë and book the trip again. After weeks of traveling, its so refreshing to not have to think or figure out where to eat and which beaches to go to; this trip was like a “turn your…”

“A great day out! The speedboat ride was super fun and all three stops were great and had enough time at each one. The boat guide gave us a quick talk about each stop. Our driver and guide Marsel was nice and friendly. He provided us with a traditional Albanian snack during our coffee stop which was delicious! He also took us to the Old Town in Vlorë afterwards during our 1 hour free time. One thing to note: Your group may be mixed with another group. Our speedboat ended up having 25 people excluding the skippers and guide, which made it a tight fit on the boat.”

Office was also easy to find and transport provided to the launch site.
