Wow! This tour ist the best we ever had. The nature is stunning and I recommend everyone to take the tour to Komani Lake and Shala River. The Organisation with choose balkan was excellent and our tour guide Elton (Toni) did a phenomenal job. Five Stars!

Our tour guide Toni (Elton) picked us up punctually at the meeting point. After a very short time we already had a very good connection to each other and drove towards Komani Lake in a very relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Toni always stopped when we needed a break or wanted to take photos. The boat trip was, just before the high season, an absolute highlight of our time in Albania. We also had very good and reliable contact with the organiser in the background, Sirma. Next time I will stay longer and certainly book a tour with Choose Balkans again!

We very much enjoyed our day at beautiful Lake Komani and Ari was a wonderful guide and driver. The communication with Choose Balkans was excellent from beginning to end and I would definitely recommend them for tours around Albania. The only downside of our particular tour was that the water in the Shala river was too low to pass through with the boat, so we didn't get to see as much of the river. What we did see was still amazingly beautiful though and our lunch at a lake guesthouse was absolutely delicious! Tips: 1) bring a jacket! We went in September and the boat ride was very cold and wet! We weren’t adequately prepared for this. 2) Keep in mind that you'll be doing a lot of sitting on this tour. The drive is about 3-4 hours total each way (with some coffee stops) and the boat ride is another 2 hours there and back. If you are looking for a more active experience, this might not be the best tour for you. The views really are stunning though.
