This was a great way to experience Tirana, especially since we only had half a day in the city. Clint is clearly very passionate about Tirana and Albania, which made the tour really engaging. He shared fascinating insights into Albania's history, especially the communist period and its impact on his own generation, as well as the country's religious history and culture. He also taught us some Albanian words and gave us practical tips about local food, buses and getting around the city. The tour took us to places and details we would probably have missed on our own. My friend and I agreed that without the tour, we would have stayed around the main square and missed so much of what makes Tirana interesting. Clint gave us a much deeper appreciation of the city and the country. Two hours very well spent and absolutely worth it!
Excellent tour of central Tirana and introduction to Albania. Our guide Clint was very well informed and a pleasure to spend some hours with. Side note - I loved how Clint welcomed Serbs in the tour group, considering how politicians and criminals try to stir hatred between these old neighbours.
Amazing tour. Clint was great! Never had such a passionate tour guide. He really made us understand and feel Albania culture 😊 definitely recommend it!
I was a very interesting tour. Clint was very nice and friendly. I recommend.
Clint was just amazing, passionating. He made every minute of this 2 albanian hours tour interesting. It was accesible, easy to understand, funny. He transmitted big emotions explaining the stories of the ablanian people. Best tour I've done in my life!! Go Clint 🤩
Clint was a super passionate guide tour. Would recommend him at 100%.
Very knowledgeable toir guide. Great and very pleasant to listen and follow. Very committed and happy to show to people their country and culture. Truly recommended
Arbour was amazing!!! The crowd size was fairly small however it was a pleasure to interact with the other travellers. The atmosphere was positive and Arbour consistently contributed to the groups positive and entertaining dynamic - making this tour unforgettable and enjoyable. The length of the visit 2 hours and was spent effectively exploring different tourist attractions of the area. Arbour was an exceptional guide and we definitely recommend touring with him again!
Clint was a great guide and really made it feel like we were walking the city with a friend, but a very knowledgeable one, great experience
We went on the Saturday 1130 am tour with Ray and had a fantastic experience. Ray was knowledgeable, engaging and friendly and he is also made every effort to keep us shaded as much as possible on a very hot day. This was a great way to get an introduction to Tirana and Albania. Time well spent.
