    · November 14th, 2023
    We had a fabulous trip led by Toni, our safe driver and fountain of knowledge about the Balkan countries. Highlights were Sarajevo, Prizren, Skoder, Ohrid, and Berat. He was flexible and allowed us to modify the itinerary to suit our interests. Also, had fantastic support by Sirma from the Tirana office who was great with logistics, payment, and answered all of my questions. Highly recommend this trip, Toni as guide, and Sirma for support.

    Taking the local food experience walking tour of Tirana was a truly delightful adventure. From start to finish, this tour was a culinary journey filled with delicious discoveries. Our informative tour guide was not only passionate about the local cuisine but also a treasure trove of knowledge about Tirana's history and culture. They made the experience all the more enriching by sharing fascinating stories along the way.

    The Choose Balkans team did a great job, start to finish. Fast & helpful communication on the planning side and superb execution from arrival through departure. We spent 6 days with Ana as tour guide & driver, and I can highly recommend her. She was attentive, responsive, communicative, and just all around fun to spend time with.

    Excellent. Our best tour operator yet. The itinerary was carefully thought through and well balanced. The trip represented great travel for the cost. Our booking was easy, the pre-information packet was timely and thorough. Interim questions were handled promptly and thoroughly, including going out of their way to help us with some hard to get reservations. The transfers were perfect and done with a Skoda Octavia vehicle. Everything worked like clockwork. However, it was the genius of the itinerary, that put this trip into the A plus category.
