    The tour takes you past some of the most stunning parts of north Albania, it was gorgeous and the guesthouses we stayed at were small and welcoming. The food was really good too (dinner is not included, but available at the guesthouses we stayed in). The self-guided hiking tour was well organized, all we had to do was walk ;). Our tour operator (Brikena) made some changes during our trip, which were always discussed before. Because of that, the tour was far more convenient than having to schedule everything yourself, additionally, we had a short private boat trip which was really fun
