We had an absolutely amazing experience on the Grama Bay Tour with 3 Fiori! From the moment we arrived, everything was very well organized and the whole day was full of beautiful views, relaxing moments, and great memories.A special thank you to our guide Steven, who was fantastic throughout the entire trip. He was very friendly, professional, and attentive, and made sure everyone felt comfortable and enjoyed the experience. Steven also gave us interesting information about the places we visited and was always happy to help and answer questions.The boat ride along the Albanian Riviera was incredible, with breathtaking views of the coastline, crystal-clear water, and hidden beaches. Grama Bay itself was absolutely beautiful and definitely one of the highlights of our trip. We also had time to enjoy the water, take photos, and simply relax in the amazing surroundings. The crew of 3 Fiori created a really welcoming and enjoyable atmosphere, making the entire trip feel easy and stress-free. If you’re visiting Albania and looking for a great way to explore the coast, I would definitely recommend the Grama Bay Tour with 3 Fiori. Thank you to the whole team, and especially Steven, for such a memorable day! 🚤🌊☀️🇦🇱 Definitely worth it!
Wonderful trip good guidance only 20 euros more expensive than booking locally. Sure, Tripadvisor has to be paid too, but this is too much margin.
An essential experience not to be missed if you are visiting Albania! It is one of the most beautiful experiences I have ever had. Excellent atmosphere, adorable guide and boat pilot, I highly recommend. I absolutely do not regret paying the price for it: as a family, we loved this day full of discoveries, with breathtaking landscapes, worthy of the most beautiful Instagram photos. And honestly, it is even more impressive to see in person!
First, we left too late for the boat. Where we had to walk with a group of over 200 people. It was not well organized, was unclearly spoken and the places we visited were far too crowded with people. The places were pretty.
Fantastic experience with a cute guide. We are very happy because
Very nice experience! We were blown away by the views. Our French-speaking guide Aniet and the skipper Brandon were great! Attentive to our desires and our pace.
Terribly loud lousy music all day that annoyed
It was a very nice day
We booked the Blue Cave boat excursion with 3 Fiori and overall it was a very smooth and enjoyable experience. The boat departed on time and was clean and well-maintained. The ride itself was scenic, with several opportunities to stop for photos along the coastline. The highlight, of course, was the Blue Cave. Timing was well planned, so we avoided peak congestion and had a reasonable amount of time inside the cave. The skipper navigated carefully, allowing everyone onboard to take photos without feeling rushed. In addition to the cave visit, there were a few swim stops, which added value to the trip. Snorkeling time was sufficient, and the water was exceptionally clear. A couple of minor considerations: depending on sea conditions, the ride can be bumpy, so motion-sensitive travelers may want to prepare accordingly. Also, bring sun protection, as the boat wasn't shaded. Overall, well-organized excursion. I would recommend it to travelers looking for a full day adventure.
A great excursion, an amazing skipper Aldo. Perfect from start to finish I highly recommend. Local sandwiches at lunchtime, drinks included. Beautiful landscapes
