My husband and I used Choose Balkans for private transportation from Tirana to Sarande. The process was smooth, easy, and the communication with the company was great. Ervis was our driver and he made sure to make stops along the way for us and let us stop at the Borsh waterfall restaurant for lunch. Very satisfied with the services they provide!
We went on a one-day trip from Tirana to Theth with Billy from the Choose Balkans agency, and we highly recommend it to everyone! Billy is an excellent guide and travel companion. He answers every question in an engaging way and shares his knowledge about life, culture, nature, and the economy of Albania. He drives very well and safely. Our journey to Theth included stops at beautiful viewpoints for photos. We enjoyed a pleasant time in the national park and went hiking along the Black Creek to the Blue Eye in Theth. The views were breathtaking – a must-see! On the way back, we visited Shkodër, a beautiful city with a view of Lake Shkodër. It was an amazing day spent in great company. We highly recommend trips with Billy and the Choose Balkans team!
I had a perfect stay in their Moonlight Apartment in Tirana. Albana was excellent in helping me with everything I need! ❤️
Hi my husband and I stayed at Retreat apartments through Choose Balkans for one night in Tirane. Despite a bit of difficulty finding the apartment we were helped by some locals and then greeted by the lovely Albana. We were upgraded to a bigger apartment which was great. Albana was very helpful and explained everything we needed as well as where to have lunch and dinner. The apartment was in a great central area. We were also offered the option of a later checkout than 11am if we needed. Thanks once again Albana.
Fabulous host….so helpful And a beautiful apartment The area is perfect for exploring and safe easy to walk around.
