El guía fue amable, con conocimientos y muy paciente en el punto de encuentro ya que no encontrábamos el lugar exacto. Excelente experiencia, aprendimos mucho del lugar y a pesar del calor lo disfrutamos mucho. ¡Gracias Toni!

Our tour guide Tony was excellent and his information and knowledge really brought the site to life for us hence the very good score. I would recommend Butrint as a site to visit.
However the booking through Viator needs some improvement and I would score Viator much lower. We had booked the tour for 3.30pm. Shortly before this we had a message saying they couldn’t do the tour due to the heat and asking us the swap to the next day. We eventually managed to book for 5.30pm but the tour guide told us they only usually do tours in the morning so this does need resolving between Viator and the local tour company. Also the car had no useable seat belts in the back.

The different ruins were all interesting but our guide Tony's descriptions and explanations of historical context brought them all into vivid life.
We always double-check the availability with our local partners for each booking. Even though this is usually a swift process, it can take up to 24 hours. Once this process is completed you will receive your voucher or ticket by email. If our local partner is not able to confirm your booking we will offer you the best possible alternative. If the new date and/or time doesn’t fit your itinerary, we will reimburse the full amount paid.
