- JMJeff· September 10th, 2024I've been on many tours, and admittedly I don't often post reviews, but in the case of Zbulo I will make an exception. The 8 day Self Guided Tour in Albania organized by Zbulo was perhaps the best organized tour I have ever been on. I say that because: -The information they provided in advance was clear, detailed, and they quickly and thoroughly responded to any questions. -Logistically, everything was perfect. The drivers, the hotels, the equipment, the information, etc was all provided exactly as promised, without any problems. -The tour itself was great. The hikes were a mix of difficulty levels, the lodgings exceeded expectations, and despite our initial hesitation at a "self guided" format, they made the experience easy. In short, I'd highly recommend this tour and Zbulo - I just wish they operated in other countries as we'd be happy to go through them again!Show moreTrip date: August 2024

- SMSonia· October 16th, 2022We thoroughly enjoyed our 8-day Self-Guided tour of northern Albania. All went smoothly from the hand-over documents and gadgets to transfers between locations and airport transfer. The hikes are doable and the accommodations are comfortable with delicious meals provided. A well rounded experience. We highly recommend Zbulo.Show more
Trip date: October 2022 - Gaëlle· July 20th, 2021Our self guided hiking trip organised by Zbulo was perfectly organised, they are very responsive and arranging :) It was great to have a GPS to help for the hike, and to have the luggage transfer possibility. We also really enjoyed staying with local hosts. Zbulo gives many tips for the way, as well as some background on the local history and customs. We would totally recommend booking a trip with them!Show more
Zbulo - Discover Albania commented on this reviewThanks for your feedback Gaëlle! I'm glad you found our road book for individual hikers useful and that the GPS with prerecorded trails added value.
