Adventure and Fun Albania
Reviewed February 3, 2018
In October 2017 my girlfriend and I were on a 6 day tour of Albania booked through Adventure and Fun Albania. We were expecting it to be a tour group (6+ people) but turned out to be just the two of us who had signed up! Ben was our guide, we found him to be friendly, knowledgable and accommodating. There was a bit of a personality clash as we are fairly quiet and like to keep to ourselves, whereas Ben is very communicative and out going. This would have been great in a big group as we'd been expecting when we'd booked the tour. This isn't a criticism of Ben, more that it wasn't our ideal situation and he would have been perfect leading a large group or a private tour for more outgoing travellers.On one day my girlfriend was feeling very unwell and Ben was extremely helpful, taking her to hospital, getting medicine and adapting the tour - making sure she was okay and we still had a good time. We were really grateful for his help on that day in particular, he went above and beyond what was expected.One important thing of note is he was a very good driver. We felt safe and comfortable irrespective of whether we were on a motorway, on one of the older, poorly maintained roads or in the crazy Tirana traffic!
We would definitely recommend Ben, especially if you are looking for a tour guide with energy and enthusiasm, who definitely loves Albania and is a great conversationalist.
