In the summer of 2018 we planned a trip with 6 classic cars in Albania, a destination not often thought of.

Our guide Ben welcomed us at the border and was of great help with the paper work: almost no delay what so ever. The first day we toured in the northern mountain part and it was immediately clear that this country displays an exceptionally beautiful landscape. The local communities offered us a very warm welcome and we felt almost at home right away. The following days we travelled from north to south along very scenic roads. The Albanian riviera is absolutely stunning. On some roads you have the sea at one side and snow capped mountains (in summertime!) at the ohter side which is quite remarkable.  On our way we visited the two cities Gjirokaster and Berat who are of an exceptional beauty and are rightfully classified as World Heritage Site.  It is not possible to visit a country without knowing anything about history, politics and social life of the Albanian people. Thanks to our ever present and active guide Ben we were teached about all this aspects and this made the trip even moren unforgettable.

This European country is a hidden pearl, our guide Ben helped us a lot to discover it! 

From Belgium we send our oldtimer-cars to the Albanian border to have a scenic tour there, we flew in. In Belgium, Albania is still a bit a "strange" destination. After picking up the cars, we met Ben who was waiting us at the bordre and directly we felt safe and confident. He took care of all the custom-administration, we had no delay. Not obvious seems to me. Ben showed us the most magnificent scenic roads trough the country. At any time he knows all about history, politics and what ever you want to know about the country even culture and etnology. We especialy care about good food and were never disapointed about the restuarants Ben selected. The country is worth seeing and absoloutly safe, certainly if Ben takes care of you. We will be back! Thanks Ben for the very special experience!

Excellent knowledge of nature and culture, very accessible ... Respect...

If you decide to hike in Albania, look for Arben. An excellent guide, ecologist, nature fighter.... interesting and communicative person. Heavy climb to the Maja Jezerce, thanks to Arben, was a great adventure. Wonderful memories!!! Thnx Arben!!!

If you visit Albania, you should definetely get Arben.  He knows a great deal about the Balkans, is really passionate about showing Albania to visitors and is just a really cool & fun person to be around .  It was an amazing trip travelling around Albania & Kosovo, Arben makes the places and history come alive with a nice touch of humor.  Going with Arben was definetely a big difference in the visit to Albania, would not have been the same without him.
