The Blue Eye national park is absolutely stunning. One of the most picturesque places I have ever been to.
The experience itself was not quite what we were expecting. We assumed we were essentially just booking transfers to and from the park, which is exactly what we got but just not in the way we were expecting.
We opted to meet the tour at Sarande port but there is no other information about where to be or what to look for. We tried contacting the operators but had no response so went to their nearest office. The lady there was very helpful and we were picked up from there. We were expecting a mini bus (or something to this effect) but it was just the two of us in someone’s car being driven to the national park. Once we arrived we were a bit confused about what was going on, the guide stayed with us (we opted to get the train to the main site so he met us the other end) and then we were left to explore with the only instructions our guide will be waiting at the restaurant, no indication of what time we had to explore.
We’d say just bare this in mind when thinking about expectations but the Blue eye and the whole national park was incredible
