Worth the money and time.
My tour guide was Juli and he picked me up punctually.
He was very kind and knowledgeable and informed us on the culture and history of Albania on the way to the port, as well as attentive on needs like bathroom breaks and coffee/food.
The views are immaculate and the waters are so unbelievably pristine.
I wouldn't pass on this great experience!

Thank you Choose Balkans for your support. This trip is a unique experience with lots of fun experience. The pirate themed cruise was a little long though but holds up really the partying vibe throughout the entire peninsula. Fascinating stuff to swim in Adriatic dark blue water. Mr Arian our tour guide is a pleasant warm person with lot of interesting insights. We enjoyed the cave of Haxhi Aliu which was spectacular and especially beautiful stalactite walled water inside.. greatly enjoyed to swim. Thanks once again Choose Balkans for this amazing trip.

Pirate ship was loud and fun (heads up if it’s not your scene!) the beaches were pretty rocky so if you have swim shoes bring them it’s worth it. Our driver/tour guide was Renato. He is local and his dad used to work at Sazan Island so had interesting insight. He also took us to the best place for byrek in the country as a bonus. Great day trip!
