Përshëndetje! As an experienced private tour guide, I love arranging tours to meet the needs of my guests. On my private tours, I will treat you like a friend and show you as much as I can in the time we have together. I have been living in Durres, Albania, for almost all of my life, so you can be sure you will have a real local guide. I grew up working in the tourism industry, which is one of the biggest industries in Albania. I'm a qualified guide, a very curious person, an explorer, and a nature lover. My goal is to give you not just a tour but a unique and customized experience where you can feel like a local, discovering hidden places, meeting local people, tasting typical dishes, and, what I love most, going back home with great memories. My tours are for everyone, you don't need to be an adventurer or a backpacker, you just need to be curious enough. I really love when you can have a good mix of the outdoors and unique local experiences: no crowds, no rush, and the feeling that you are really immersing yourself in local life. This is the better way to discover a territory. As we travel together on the tour, I am always happy to make as many stops as you wish, for photos or just to get out and stretch the legs! I find that the stops that were not planned are often the most enjoyable! My local knowledge means I can often recommend hidden gems along the route, making your tour even more special! Tell me what you would like to see, and I will plan a tour to meet your requirements! I am a flexible and fun guide, and I would love to meet you during your vacation in Albania! The tours you can find here are just some examples; they can be completely customized to your desires or for larger groups. Please, feel free to get in touch for more information. Mirë se vini!

Overview of your Durres tour

If you want to explore the wild beauty of Tirana's surroundings while also getting a serious dose of adrenaline, this day trip from Durres is the way to go. Begin our hiking adventure together in the beautiful area near Tirana around Bovilla Lake. This destination will offer you an amazing view of wild mountains mixed with the green color of the lake, creating a spectacular hiking experience to the rock on the top of Bovilla Track. In particular, the peak of Gamtiti Mount (1, 268 m/4, 160 ft) is quite interesting. Together, we will reach its peak, and you will discover a beauty hidden in plain sight. After that, you can enjoy a picnic lunch with a great view.

Your Durres tour itinerary

We will meet in the morning at 9:30 a. m. at the hotel/meeting point and start our trip to the Lake of Bovilla. After arriving at Bovilla Lake, we drive up the lake dam and prepare to hike in Mount Gamti. The trail to hike is a simple one, where every step gives us a more beautiful view as we reach the top. The hike takes about 50 minutes. On the top of the hill, there is an impressive view of the lake and the green hills surrounding it. It's time to rest, to enjoy the gorgeous view, to play with each other, to talk, and to eat food under the shadow of the cave. Returning to the same track takes about 40 minutes, take the vehicle and drive back.
