    Absolutely fantastic. We became friends at the end and learned so much about Albania. I would put 10 stars if there was the option. Skerdi is polite, professional and very funny.

    This 4-day North to South trip with Local Friends in Albania was a great introduction to the country. Giulio, the knowledgeable guide, shared many stories about Albania’s history. I highly recommend this small tour group; the hotels were great, and I enjoyed visiting the castles. There’s a lot to see, and I wish I had more time.
