    · July 2nd, 2024
    What an amazing experience we had on this adventure! It was a perfect mix of guided experiences and free time to explore each place at your own pace. We saw a lot in 4 days, the drives never felt too long, we were very comfortable and the views were beautiful. The hotels were located very centrally and all within walking distance from the must-see areas. The communication before, during and after the tour was perfect. We learned so much about the area and would want to go back! Thank you to Choose Balkans and our guide Ilir!

    We had the most wonderful time exploring Albania, North Macedonia and Kosovo in this 4 day tour. Our tour guide, Gentjan, is not only the most considerate, cultured and welcoming tour guide, but also one of the kindest, generous and insightful humans we ever met. We are deeply grateful for the eye-opening experience he provided us with. We learned greatly about the history and culture while also having fun. I particularly enjoyed beautiful Ohrid. The tour is well-organised, with good accommodation and flexible pace. I would totally recommend this tour for anyone looking for an amazing overview of these 3 countries in a short period of time. I hope to return one day and to give Gentjan a massive hug!

    Didn’t like the tour at all. Hotels were below a stage. They gave an electric car and driver cum guide didn’t know where to charge the car and wasted lot of our time. He was not proper guide also. He was just walking with us just like another tour member. Overall very bad. Pls don’t recommend this tour. Choose Balkans is poor quality

    Choose Balkans used a freelancer who is an unlicensed tour guide and self-proclaimed hiking guide. He did not know hardly any history and would invent information when asked something he did not know. His English was hard to understand too. He had bad time management skills by disregarding when the winter sun set, not knowing the winter museum hours, and driving half of the speed limit. Thus, we missed a UNESCO museum, could not see the castle grounds or countryside while driving for hours after sunset, and did not have free time as mentioned in the itinerary. He was very kind, but obviously not qualified as a tour guide for 4 days in December. Since it was off season, we should have been booked into hotels in the old town centers. At 2 hotels, I was given unenclosed showers, so water went everywhere, including on towels and my stuff. Sirma at Choose Balkans was very quick and thorough when responding to my questions and did daily follow-up during the tour. Unfortunately, nothing could be done to change guides during the tour over the holidays. I would NOT recommend using Choose Balkans.

    Our tour with Choose Balkans to Albania, North Macedonia, and Kosovo could not have been better! Toni, our guide, went above and beyond to make our sure our tour was perfect. He took lots of photos for us so we can always remember our trip. Sirma planned an amazing itinerary. From beginning to end, she was always there for us. She responded to my questions quickly and thoughtfully. Choose Balkans is an incredible company that takes care of all the details so you can relax and enjoy the experience.

    This 4 day tour was a great way to experience the 3 Balkan nations. The tour highlighted the main historic and cultural sites of 6 cities, providing a comprehensive overview of the Balkan region. Our driver/guide, Dritan was excellent. Serum from the Choose Balkans office kept us well informed prior to the tour and checked-in often. I highly recommend this tour companying and it’s unique offerings

    A great way to cover a lot of ground and see many amazing things in a short amount of time. This tour is fast-paced and requires a bit of stamina, but it is not too much for the average person.
