Arben Kola

Arben was our guide for a 7 day walking tour mainly of southern Albania in September this year. There were 10 in the group and most of us had come alone. His excellent knowledge of so many different aspects of Albania gave us a unique insight into this fascinating country. He speaks excellent English and is a very good communicator. He organised all aspects of the trip extremely well and was not fazed by any unexpected changes to the schedule or requests from the people on the tour. He has exceptional organisational skills and was always anticipating and planning the next part of the tour whilst managing whatever we were doing at the time. He is a good reader of people and made sure that everyone felt at ease. He also made the trip really memorable with his réflexions on Albanian life past and present woven in with some of his own and his family’s stories. The trip was great fun, very informative and memorable thanks to him. I would recommend him very highly.
