Review of Sarandë’s $35 sunset boat tour, with Turtle Cave, Secret Beach, swimming, local wine, music, and practical tips.
“It was a nice boat tour. Aldo and the captain are very friendly and it was a very chill tour. We had nice views on the sunset and there was friendly people on the boat as well.”
Review of Saranda’s Blue Eye, Lekuresi Castle, and Albanian wine tour, with practical tips on transport, walking, food, cost, and value.
“This felt more of a multi-stop car ride rather than a tour. The time with the guide was very brief and it was only at the start of each stop, where he’d give us a brief overview of the location. He was really good, but I just wished he’d come along and add more colour to what we were seeing. The car we drove in was nice but the driving was reckless and more often than not it felt uncomfortable. It’s also a utilitarian car rather than a van or a minibus meaning that personal space is non-existent. The Blue Eye is highly overrated in my opinion and we were…”

“I didn’t actually end up on this trip, as my 2-year-old and I were the only ones wanting to do it. Instead, we did the Blue Eye, the castle and Butrint National Park. However, we’re so glad we went on the different one anyway. Our guide - Kacey (probably spelt very wrong) - was brilliant. My son was in awe of her, and wanted to hold her hand at every stop. She was brilliant with him and the rest of the group, making sure that we were all well informed and saw the right things from the right places. Can’t recommend this tour company enough.”

“Klajdi is a great guide, told us quite a lot of interesting things about Saranda and took us to all places without any problems. The wine tasting was the part we have been looking forward to the most and the one that disappointed us more as well, so don’t expect amazing wines there. Otherwise the Blue eye was gorgeous, and the view from the castle is breathtaking. Get ready to take some pictures!”

““A great mix of nature and local flavors. The Blue Eye was breathtaking and the wine tasting was fantastic.””
Taste Saranda wine, raki, cognac, jams, and farm produce on a private tour with castle views and hotel pickup.
“An absolutely fantastic guide who is knowledgeable about all processes will lead you through the entire farm. You will learn how they create different wines from their grape, how they make raki/liqueurs/olive oil, grow their own fruit/vegetables etc. You can then taste their wines, raki and liqueur together with a table filled with picking food from their farm. It was so good! For such a cheap price I recommend everyone to go there and experience the farm, soon there will also be their own restaurant built on the farm.Auto-translated”

“Communication was great via WhatsApp the day before/morning of - so we knew exactly what was going on. Sead, who picked us up from our hotel was very nice & shared a lot about his life in Albania. We were dropped off at the entrance to the Blue Eye, we chose to get the train down to see it which was easy. - blue eye beautiful! We were then taken to a Cantina where a member of staff left a carafe each of white, rose & red wine on our table, that had been made at their vineyard and a few bottles of raki (traditional Albania spirit) along with some…”
