Albanien krydstogt fra Korfu
Beskrivelse
Sejl over Det Ioniske Hav til Saranda, Albaniens solkysse, og vælg mellem to uforglemmelige måder at udforske dette fascinerende land på. Option 1: Det Blå Øje & Saranda på fritid Tag på indlandsrejse til det magiske Blue Eye (Syri i Kaltër), hvor krystalklare safirvand bobler op fra dybt under jorden, omgivet af frodig grønt. Nyd farverne, træk vejret i roen og tag fantastiske billeder, inden du vender tilbage til Saranda for afslappet fritid langs den livlige strandpromenade. Alternativ 2: Ancient Butrint og Saranda vandretur Gå tilbage gennem 2.500 års historie på Butrint, et UNESCO-verdensarvsted med usædvanlige ruiner - teatre, romerske bade, udsøgte mosaikker og et venetiansk slot med fantastisk udsigt. Nyd frokost tilbage i Saranda, derefter opdage byen på en guidet tur. To rejser, en fængslende introduktion til Albanien

- top notch historian Butrint tour guide who knew his facts inside out. Kudos to him! - great day out in Albania - the lunch deal should be renegotiated with the restaurant as they were overcharging on drinks. This didn’t give the best impression of Albania.
Booked through Compass in the Main Street of Acharavi. Maria was relly helpful and l couldn't fault her service. However, on the day of pick up, we were told a Yellow bus would pick us up at 6.30. It never came. At 7.30 a white one turned up and after a very confusing 10 minutes the driver said he take us to the port. At the dock all was good and the transfer and trip across the bay were fine. Albania was really interesting, the castle was in a great setting, the ruins were explained in great detail by our guide and lunch was delicious. Then we had free time at the harbour. Unfortunately, it was siesta time and all that were open were expensive tat stalls and the seafront restaurants. Trip back was good, but, oh dear, an hour to get through passports after a long day was a bit much. I would reccommend both Albania and Compass, but some of the timing and detail is a bit stressful.
From pick up till we went home everything went smoothly. The guide was very knowledgeable and Albania was stunning. Would recommend.
Overall a good experience. Pick up was easy and on time (though I did have to email to get the time/location as hadn’t heard anything the night before). The trip was well organised and our guide for the blue eye was friendly and knowledgeable. Going as part of a group definitely makes the travel/port easier to navigate and gave us priority for the train at the blue eye. (I would not want to walk it so definitely get the train even if not part of a group!) then we had time in Sarande for a drink and wander before heading back to the ship just as a thunder storm rolled in! Overall would recommend especially for solo travellers and easy of travel to Albania!
They canceled our activity the day before, without reason…
It’s a really long day, and when it’s hot, it can be very tiring, but…the staff at Ionian were amazing! Great English and German explanations and we were very well looked after and everything was very well explained and smooth running.
You cannot swim in the river anymore or jump into the "Blue Eye". Make sure your pickup/ drop-off is from the right Hotel/pickup point you book. All said it was a very enjoyable day. Tour guide was very informative.
I would highly recommend this trip to Butrint. The guide was friendly and very knowledgeable. The archeological site is an amazing place and the lunch was both tasty and accommodated a large appetite like mine!
Viator has been our go-to for years but this time the tour from Corfu to Albania was disappointing. The times don’t include transfers which add 4 hours to the 8 hour trip. We were picked up at 0700 and returned at 1930. Coaches were tatty and uncomfortable with no seat belts. Ferries were basic with very limited refreshments. Many hours waiting and hanging around with the hidden extra expense of port tax £20 each. This made it a £200 plus day trip. The guides and drivers did their best but the groups were too large and it all felt like passing through a clanky old sausage machine, with sound track supplied by overtired kids and frustrated adults.
This day trip was a great way to see Albania. The ferry ride is short, and the group is divided into buses by language with a guide you spend the day with, so it felt like a smaller group.
