We really enjoyed our day tour to Gjirokastër! It was a good experience from start to finish. The communication prior to the tour was excellent; we got all the necessary information on time and questions were answered quickly. Our guide was very attentive and made sure everyone felt comfortable and kept up. He was also very friendly and approachable, which made the atmosphere in the group pleasant. Above all, he gave interesting information about Gjirokastër, the history and the culture, making the tour not only beautiful but also very educational. Highly recommended if you want to explore Gjirokastër!

Amazing experience. 5 stars. Recommend! - very knowledgeable and informative guide tour, which is algo a very fast but safe driver! Thank you Antonio, you are amazing! - nice stops on the way to break down the journey - we were worried we wouldn't have enough time to visit the monastery or the market/bazaar or that we would be rushed the whole day, but it was super relaxed and there is time for everything - the Gjirokaster castle is definitely worth a visit - monastery and riverside park stops are a nice extra - flexible and efficient picks ups/drop offs. But WiFi/roaming is definitely needed to be in touch with driver throughout - comfortable vehicle with air con (but no wifi)
