I previously told you the driver/guide was a no show and after waiting 1/2 hours I had to contact him and only then was advised he cancelled. Please confirm my charges have been reversed on my credit card. I booked 2 excursions and both cancelled on me with your company. I am NOT a satisfied customer!
The driver was very punctual; he took the time to show us and share a lot of things along the way about Albania and its history. Despite the heavy rainstorm, he did not shorten the excursion and continued to bring a lot of good cheer. Listening to our needs. I highly recommend it. We would have liked to exchange more with him, but our English is minimal, haha.
I had a great time visiting the Blue Eye and Lekuresi Castle! The whole tour was very well organized and easy to follow. The Blue Eye was amazing, with very clear and cold water. It is a very special place and perfect for photos and relaxing in nature. After that, we went to Lekuresi Castle, where the view is just incredible. You can see the whole city and the sea from the top. The guide was friendly and explained everything in a simple way, which made the experience even better. I really enjoyed this tour and I recommend it to everyone who visits the area!
We had an amazing time visiting Lekuresit Castle and the Blue Eye. Our tour guide, Fatjon, was on-time, very personable and spoke great English. We started by visiting Lekuresit Castle. It was so interesting to learn about the history of the castle & the surrounding area while taking in the amazing view of the sea and valley below. From the castle, we took a scenic ride to the Blue Eye. Fatjon shared the history of the area along the way. He was very easy to talk to and was also a bit humorous at times, which we also enjoyed. The Blue Eye was a little crowded the day we arrived, but Fatjon did a wonderful job finding parking and then guiding us on a short walk from the parking lot to the Blue Eye. The Blue Eye was breathtakingly beautiful and crystal clear. He took a lot of pictures for us, which was very helpful. After seeing the eye up close, he guided us to an area where we could wade into the spring water. The water was ice cold, but felt invigorating. After wading in, we had some Coca-Colas overlooking the stream and enjoyed a great conversation with Fatjon. On the way back into Ksamil, he recommended a delightful restaurant with local cuisine and fresh mussels. It was delicious. Without reservation, we give this tour our highest recommendation! Thank you Fatjon!
Our guide, Fatjon, was incredible. The tour was beautiful, informative, and fun. I would 100% recommend this trip to see the Blue Eye!
Amazing experience! We loved the boat and Miri was amazing. He let us drive the boat and swam with us. He showed us all the secret beautiful caves and we truly enjoyed
I loved it, my guide has been Denis and could not be better, I highly recommend the site is beautiful and the unbeatable company has become super fun and fun apart from how spectacular the site is
Both beautiful and very interesting places to visit. Denis was very helpful in sharing the background stories of both Blue Eye and Lekuresi Castle, as well as the sights we saw on the comfortable car journey. Perfect half day tour.
Thank you!
Guide Dennis is a great ambassador for Albania. His excellent English allowed him to bring the tour alive with stories of history, personal experiences and local customs. The castle commands a stellar 360 degree of the Sarande area, loaded with interesting features. Blue Eye is also a lovely sight. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed the afternoon tour.
Thank you!
Dennis was an amazing tour guide and this was a great tour. The blue eye and castle was the right mix of history and aesthetics. If you are on the fence about this tour, don’t be it was an amazing tour.
