"We had a fantastic tour with our guide Ani in Tirana. She showed us all the main sights, but also gave us great recommendations for places to visit afterwards.
We were especially impressed by her deep knowledge of Albanian history and current politics. She explained everything in a very interesting and easy-to-understand way, and she was always happy to answer our questions.
She was very welcoming, spoke excellent English and French, and made the whole experience enjoyable from start to finish.
We would definitely recommend her to anyone visiting Tirana!

"Dori and Leku gave us an excellent introduction to Tirana and Albania. They are friendly and knowledgeable and helped us to get a quickly orientated with the city. A bonus was some restaurant recommendations which turned out to be very good indeed."
"Ani was perfect for us. A guide with an opinion but also respect and open to other opinions. She knew all the historic facts and took us for some Nice coffee and raki"
"Ani was absolutely fantastic! Her knowledge was exceptional and she took the time to answer all questions. We would definitely book her again for a future trip. "
"We had an issue regarding the meeting time-we were told 09:30 and Ani was told 10:00, but once we finally met up everything went smoothly. Ani is a terrific guide and we had a very informative, entertaining, and fun 3 hour walking tour of the downtown area.
Note: Although I’m glad I saw it, I found the Bunker, where life during the Communist period was explained, to be depressing and I was happy when that portion of the tour was over.
All in all, I strongly recommend the tour.

"Ani was an incredible guide and we are so thankful we did this tour on our first day in Albania. She was so informative and gave us a good understanding of Albania’s complex history, along with lots of great recommendations and jokes. "
"Wow. Come hungry. Dori is a fantastic guide and has such passion for Albania and the food. We tried so many dishes and every single one was superb. No tourist stuff; all local!!! We can’t recommend this tour enough. "

It was a blast!!!
"The tour with Ani was a blast!
Not only is she a super expert in the huge history of Albania and Tirana and could answer all our questions. She also has a good sense of humor, shared many fun insights with us and also gave us a lot of good tecommendations regarding restaurants, bar and places to visit, that are not part of the tour.
It was great! We (a group of 12) would definitely be on tour with Ani again!

"Thanks Ani - you helped us learn lots about Tirana and Albania showing us the nice parts and explaining the complicated history. Ani was very friendly and able to answer all our questions. It's so much better to have someone to explain everything as the guide book has it's limits. We will go back to some of the places as well as Te Met Korda for meatballs."
"Merci Ani pour cette visite de Tirana ! Dans un très bon français avec des faits personnels et historique. Tout était parfait, je vous recommande fortement ! "
