    We had a blast in this tour of the Balkans in 14 days. The tour which was supposed to be a group tour turned up to be a private one for just the two of us. We were so grateful to be fully organised by the kind Sirma of Choose Balkans, fully guided in our adventures by Eraldo and Ilir who were very kind, supportive, understanding, flexible, friendly and energetic. Kudos for their superb informative guidance and explanation as well as the energy and determination to drive us everywhere as per the organised itineraries. When we arrived in Tirana, Albania after the first half of our trip, we were delighted to meet Sirma and Brikena, and glad to be in the food tour guided by Markel. Overall, the accomodations in this tour were very good. The Balkans are such Beautiful places and we were so glad to take this one dream off our bucket list with The Choose Balkans team. Although the trips were quite long and tiring, we truly enjoyed the sites and of coz will cherish the beautiful memories forever. Who knows one day we will travel again with Choose Balkans.

    Our Semi-Private Day Tour of Montenegro: Budva & Kotor from Tirana was an unforgettable experience, made even better by our fantastic guide, Toni. He was incredibly kind, accommodating, and funny, ensuring that we never felt rushed while exploring these breathtaking destinations. His explanations of each location, along with recommendations for must-see spots and must-try foods, added so much value to our trip. Toni made sure we felt safe and comfortable throughout the journey, giving us ample time to explore, dine, and shop without any pressure. His caring nature and great sense of humor made the experience even more enjoyable. Budva was absolutely stunning, and Kotor was simply unforgettable—both places were rich in history, charm, and incredible scenery. This tour was exceptionally well-organized, and Toni’s professionalism and warmth made it truly special. If you're looking for a seamless and enjoyable day trip, this tour is highly recommended!
