We could not have asked for a better guide…..competent, thoughtful, knowledgeable with a focus on our safety at all times . Nik’s love for his Albania was palpable and infectious.

Thanks so much for the kind words, Evie - Nik had a great time showing you around! Sorry Panorama was a bit impersonal for your taste but it does have the benefit of being close to the airport for the three departure flights, and another night in Tirana seemed overkill! We've passed on your comment about portion size to Camp Nivica - they have a new chef so are bedding him in! Thanks so much for travelling with us despite the issues booking!
