Private Tour durch Albanien, Nordmakedonien und Kosovo - Land und Leute

I found GoAsLocal on the internet and communicated with Andi about a private 8 day tour of Albania, North Macedonia and Kosovo. He set everything up for a private tour at a reasonable price. Over the course of the next 8 days, I enjoyed an interesting cultural and historical tour of this part of the lower Balkans new to me. I would call this a "survey" trip through Tirana, Durres, Berat, Apollonia, Gjirokaster, Pogradec, Ohrid, Sklopje, Pristina, Pritren and places in between. You could easily spend a month in depth in this area. Andi was my initial guide but Skerdi was the Man for most of the trip and educated me about all of the nuances and issues in the various locations. All the accomodations were 4 star modern and conveniently located; Andi included a couple of guest houses with modern conveniences and the opportunity to speak with the hosts - and drink their raki. The food was excellent; the prices for everything were extremely modest by Western Europe standards ( won't last ) and the people friendly. Thanks to Andi, Skerdi and the GoAsLocal crew, this trip turned out to be everything and more than I could have anticipated. I will be back. I recommend these folks without reservation.
