Overall rating

4.3 / 5

Really nice trip. The description for the trip states that everyone can join as long as they are not newly operated on. We chose the hike because hiking was apparently easy (one of us has a bit of a knee problem), however, the hikes were somewhat more strenuous than expected, there were two hikes of 5+ km on hilly terrain along fairly steep mountain trails. The trip requires that you are in reasonable shape.

The tour was very nicely organized. Theth is definitely worth visiting, our tourguide Xhek was very friendly, super helpful and attentive, we would recommend him anytime. The food in the guesthouse was delicious and the guesthouse itself was also super well selected. Great experience!

Actividad muy completa, agradable paseo por la montaña , el guía fue excelente y muy atento. Lo único que hay que saber que viene de primeras con un coche particular y al principio resulta rara la situación pero todo irá sobre ruedas .
