      Unforgettable Trip to Albania – Thank You, Birtii!
      Our visit to Albania was an incredible experience from start to finish! The country’s natural beauty, rich culture, and warm hospitality made it a destination we’ll never forget. From exploring stunning landscapes to indulging in delicious local cuisine, every moment was a delight. A huge thank you to Birtii, who truly made our trip extra special. He was like a friend to us—always kind, welcoming, and eager to share his knowledge. His warmth and attention to detail ensured that every part of our journey was seamless and enjoyable. Whether it was recommending hidden gems, sharing local stories, or just making us feel at home, Birtii went above and beyond. This trip wouldn’t have been the same without him. His kindness and enthusiasm made every experience even more special, and we’re truly grateful. We left with unforgettable memories and a new friend—already looking forward to our next visit!

      Seamless Albanian Adventure with Aria Travels – Highly Recommended !
      We started our journey to Albania without knowing much about the country, except for a few travel vlogs we watched on YouTube. We were unsure about how to plan our trip, but then we got in touch with Ela from Aria Travels, and everything fell perfectly into place. Before choosing Aria Travels, we had explored quotes from other agencies. However, most of them pushed their pre-designed plans instead of accommodating our preferences. In contrast, Aria Travels took the time to understand our interests and included nearly all the destinations we proposed. Our guide, Mr. Berti, was an excellent choice. He wasn’t just a driver but a knowledgeable guide who explained every location and accompanied us to all the sites. Since we were traveling with a six-year-old, he ensured regular pit stops for refreshments and washrooms, which made the journey smooth and stress-free. We highly recommend Aria Travels and especially appreciate Mr. Berti for his exceptional service. Full stars to them!

      An Exceptional Experience.
      We had a wonderful time in Albania, Montenegro and North Macedonia for 10days. The tour was very well organised by Aria travels and meticulously executed even without minor pitfalls. Hats off to a Driver like Berti who was the highlight of this trip. without him our trip would have never been like this. He is an expert Driver, extremely knowledgeable and also very much aware of the guest's needs through a sixth sense. We presume we were also responsible tourists.

      We loved our tailor made tour with Aria Travel! Our guide Berti went out of his way to make our 4 days in Albania so enjoyable. If you’re a first time traveller to Albania this is the perfect way to experience the country. We were very pleased and impressed with Berti’s knowledge and it was great to be taken to some less touristy spots. Great value for money, would recommend to all!!

      Most amazing Balkan visit. 4 countries
      The Balkans are extremely beautiful and filled with history and culture, Aria travel helped me get the best of it. I went on three tours with them, Endri was my primary guide, spent three days with him, what a guy. Extremely knowledgeable, can only compare him to a walking encyclopedia. He also was so accomodating and eager to share his knowledge. I learned and saw so much. He is now a friend. I also spent some time with Berti, he was quizzing me on history he taught me, loved it! Awesome guy. The management staff where also incredible, I believe the owners themselves is who I sat with, they listened closely to what I needed and the time that I had available and guess what, they made it all happen! My hat off to them. I have much more to see and I will be coming back to them without a doubt. If there was a 10 star that is what they would get.

      Aria Travel is a great opportunity to discover Albania!
      We went on four tours with Aria Travel with very friendly and passionate guides. With Endri, we enjoyed a tour to Shkodra and Rozafa Castle and Kruja. The Skanderbeg museum is really worth visiting. We also went on a private tour with Endri to Sazan and Karaburun (near Vlore). Endri is an expert about Albanian history and is a great guide who is really passionate about his job. He wants his clients to have the best experience on the tours in Albania. Furthermore, we went to Shala River in the North of Albania with Erges who is also a great guide with remarkable driving skills even on the worst roads. He also showed us the city of Prizren in Kosovo. You can easily communicate with Florarta via Whatsapp. She also provided updates on the upcoming tours. Because of traffic, distances and bad road conditions, some tours start quite early in the morning (6AM or 7 AM).

      Family friendly bespoke tour of Albania, North Macedonia and Montengro
      Family holiday to Tirana. It was the first time taking a 4 year old and 2 year old together on holiday! We had the amazing Erges as our driver for the full 4-5 days. Aria Travel Albania were flexible and accommodating and we were able to create a bespoke itinerary. We visited Vlore and it’s amazing beach which the kids absolutely enjoyed. The next day we went to Lake Ohrid in North Macedonia. Then a full day spent in Montenegro visiting. Enroute we stopped at Lake Shkoder, before heading out to Sveti Stefan and Budva. Erges our driver was amazing especially with our younger two kids. He was patient. Happy to stop for breaks if needed. His knowledge about Albania, North Macedonia and Montenegro helped enhance our experience. Our kids loved him and called him ‘Taxi Uncle!’. He was happy to change plans and there was no clock watching. He also had a vast knowledge of the best restaurants and ice cream places. Without him our holiday would not have been so wonderful. Would recommend this company and Erges to all families considering a trip to Albania and the surrounding countries

      Great company, great communication, great value.
      A huge shoutout to Endri who was driver and guide on the day trips to Prizren and Ohrid that I took. He was knowledgeable and fun and this helped bond the small groups together. The communication after I had booked my trips online was excellent. One of the dates I had requested didn’t have enough bookings so an alternative was suggested. I was lucky to meet the staff in the office in Tirana and they were as friendly in person as via WhatsApp. I really like that they keep the groups small. The two tours I took are amongst the best I have taken, and really good value for money. I will certainly be contacting them when I next visit Albania.

      Day trip to Lake Ohrid
      Excellent day trip to Lake Ohrid. Endri our guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. We visited various points on Lake Ohrid where we were given a plethora of information from both Endri and our guide on the North Macedonian side. Communication from Aria travel from booking the trip until the day of trip was excellent. I can highly recommend this day trip and company.

    Serious agency, available and always available for any request and information. Our guide Berti was the real pearl of our 2 days spent with them, he is a true enthusiast of his work and explains the places carefully and in detail, speaks perfect Italian and is super helpful.

    Me and my friends went for a trip in Albania for 4 nights. We booked our package tour thru Wander Off Travel agency and we were very glad that we did! From the day that we booked our tour including our hotel, tours inc PCR test. Everything went smooth the day that we arrived at the airport, our driver was waiting outside the arrival area. He even waited for us as we tried to buy a tourist sim card but unfortunately the queue is long so we decided to just buy it in the city. When we arrived at the hotel (Lot Boutique Hotel, Tirana) the ambiance outside was fantastic and there are lots of nearby restaurants, café, supermarkets, park, etc. You can almost see everything when you get out our hotel and their breakfast was sooooo gooooodddd. Even the guy from outside who assisted us in our luggage’s are also very welcoming and very friendly.

    Our trip was unforgettable as Jetmir (our fantastic tour guide) brought us in places around Albania ( Kruje, Shkoder,Berat, ApolloniaTirana tour with cable car (we had 3 days tour in different areas in Albania) Our guide Jetmir had provided a great overview of his country’s history, etc. Jetmir is very professional and his English language skills are excellent with a good senses of humor. Photos to be uploaded soon. And of course, the most important part of travelling is “FOOD”, Jetmir made sure that he will bring us where we can have a very good food, very fresh produce food including grilled meat (I was say it’s pork and beef all the time)! Jetmir made sure that our travel experience in Albania was unforgettable as he gave all his best to give us the extra ordinary experience in their country. We highly recommend Wander off and Aria Travel agency. Keep it up guys, we will definitely recommend your agency for this wonderful experience that we had from your team.
