Amazing experience! Our guide Ilda was amazing, really fun and adventorous experience. It took around 3 hours.
Complete equipment provided, water, tea, and cookies offered during the excursion, a few stops to be able to swim and jump off the cliff as well as a stop at a small thermal waterfall, and the guides take care of taking all the photos so we can leave our personal items at the reception in complete safety. Irma and her team are fantastic, super friendly, and professional; since it was my friend's birthday, I was able to contact her when booking and she offered us a cake and fruit at the end of the rafting, it was perfect! thanks for everything!
What an exhilarating experience. Wonderful hosts, who bent over backwards to accommodate us. Luis was fun, but always had a safety first attitude. He was knowledgeable about the local area and the wildlife. The setting was incredible, the water refreshing, we enjoyed jumping in, swimming and the waterfall as well as boating down the rapids. We felt safe at all times on the boat. Communication before, during and afterwards was faultless. Luis took some brilliant photographs. Highly recommended, book with this company, you won’t regret it. The tea, biscuits and melon were very much appreciated too. Thank you.
Beautiful tour over the Vjosa. Luis navigated us expertly through the rapids. We unexpectedly received an upgrade from the company and were able to take a longer tour. Very nice, professional service even in the office.
An absolutely incredible experience! From the very beginning, everything was perfectly organized, and it was clear that all safety conditions were fully met, which allowed us to feel completely safe and at ease throughout the activity. Our rafting instructor Ildi was super funny and very friendly, making the whole adventure even more enjoyable. We had an amazing time and so much fun. It is truly a fantastic experience and a wonderful way to discover the last wild river in Europe. Highly recommended!
Beautiful experience. One of the best activities to do in the area. They provide everything you need. Duration 3 hours with a small stop for diving. Professional and friendly staff. The vjosa is spectacular. Wonderful view.
Nice trip on the river, enthusiastic owner who gives good explanations. Beautiful views along the way, possible for swimming and if you want to jump off the rocks. On the way a cup of herbal tea and on return a nice cup of tea with local fruit waited. Only downside was that the guide spoke limited English. But his enthusiasm and taking the many pictures made everything right.
Very good preparation and explanation with dry practice on the raft. In our case (September) there was little flow so the rapids were not especially exciting. Our monitor during the tour (Flori), managed and basic English but communicated phenomenal and interacted a lot with the whole group, making the activity very fun. In general we find it highly recommended as a family activity because the tour is very nice, safe (September), fun and the staff very facilitative with prior communication by whatsapp in our case.
Had a great time! Rafted, jumped, swam. A great day! The guide had fun and the mood was top notch. Everything was perfectly organized, clear instructions and a bottle of water on the way. At the end of the day we got the pictures the guide had taken along the way. Top arranged!
A beautiful day with white water also swimming and rock jumping incredible. All equipment was good and provided. Water was low so rapids not to big.
