Day Tour of Kruja and Shkodra from Tirana

  Booked the albanian cooking course for two. Genius concept!
It was really good food, perfect hosts both telling us all about albanian traditions cooking, drinking and countrywise.
The best... read more recommendations to Andi and Sindi!!

  This was my second tour with Go as Local and if I had stayed in Albania longer I would have booked more tours with them. The booking process was very... read more easy and Andi was quick to respond to any questions that I had leading up to my trip. He was also very accommodating when I needed to change my drop off location to a different hotel.

Skerdi was my guide for the second time and again it was so much fun and very enjoyable to listen about the history of Kosovo. It’s a couple hour drive from Tirana, but fun conversations and good music made the drive go by so much quicker. Prizren was a beautiful city with so much history and lots of character. Friendly people. The food was delicious. Wear your good walking shoes as you will have a steep walk up to the castle grounds, but the view is totally worth it.

I would definitely book with them again!

  I found GoAsLocal on the internet and communicated with Andi about a private 8 day tour of Albania, North Macedonia and Kosovo. He set everything up for a private... read more tour at a reasonable price. Over the course of the next 8 days, I enjoyed an interesting cultural and historical tour of this part of the lower
Balkans new to me.

I would call this a "survey" trip through Tirana, Durres, Berat, Apollonia, Gjirokaster, Pogradec, Ohrid, Sklopje, Pristina, Pritren and places in between. You could easily spend a month in depth in this area. Andi was my initial guide but Skerdi was the Man for most of the trip and educated me about all of the nuances and issues in the various locations. All the accomodations were 4 star modern and conveniently located; Andi included a couple of guest houses with modern conveniences and the opportunity to speak with the hosts - and drink their raki. The food was excellent; the prices for everything were extremely modest by Western Europe standards ( won't last ) and the people friendly.

Thanks to Andi, Skerdi and the GoAsLocal crew, this trip turned out to be everything and more than I could have anticipated. I will be back. I recommend these folks without reservation.
