    At the beginning it took some time waiting before gearing up, but tour itself was awesome. I hoped it would be even more extreme, but with kids it was ok. Lot of slow parts between riffles. Beautiful scenery and cliffs. Fun stops for swimming and cliff jumping. Tour guides took lots of pictures, which were shared after the tour. Weather was cloudy and rainy (in August) and kids felt a bit cold, but tour operator can't change the weather :)

    This was hands down one of the best experiences I had in Albania! The views were absolutely stunning, the landscape was breathtaking, and the river’s unique colors were just amazing. I loved every bit of it. The tour guides were super friendly, and I have to give a special shout-out to Mara. She brought such vibrant energy and kept the group happy and engaged the whole time. She was professional but also made sure we were all having a blast, and she was great about explaining the health and safety stuff too. Endri was also awesome; he drove us to the starting point, and from our little chat, I could tell how passionate he is about his job and Albania. He was really knowledgeable and friendly. Keep up the great work, team! 😊

    We arrived to the place, and were checked in. After this it was a bit chaotic to find equipment, and not much information or help was given. It’s was not very welcoming and people most felt they were in the way… The trip was nice, but more floating than rafting due to the water level at this time of year, but a beautiful trip. We could see the other rafting companies took a lot of pictures, which would have been nice as well, as we were instructed to leave phones behind.

    We joined an afternoon tour in August. Meet up 2:30pm and were back at camp around 5:30pm Stunning scenery, great fun on the raft with the chance at a couple of points to cool off in the fresh cool water and do some jumps which was much needed given it was almost 40 degrees outside. The rapids themselves were not too scary as august is when the river is lowest but it was still a great experience. Just the right amount of time as well on the water (around 2 hours I think). The Albania Rafting group team were really professional and friendly and fun too. One of the highlights of our trip to Albania.
