About this activity

Planning your holidays by your own selves makes it harder for you to visit the whole highlights of a country.

The reason I choose to offer different type of CUSTOMIZED experiences is to show you the best of my beautiful country from a local's perspective.

Bovilla Lake and Kruja city are the most interesting tourist attractions that can be visited from Tirana within a day.

This tour is a mixture of nature, adventure, culture history and tradition which will leave you impressed by end of the day.
