Albin: The Ultimate Guide to a Smooth and Memorable Experience!

Reviewed June 6, 2024

Albin is one of a kind. He traveled three days with our group of 33 Dutch entrepreneurs, experiencing totally different things; City culture, history (recent and ancient), adventure, social venues and so on. They all had one thing in common; Arben made sure everything went smooth and had control without putting himself in the spotlight. He is not only a very good and well experienced tour guide, he is also a very good and pleasant young man. Reliable, responsible and with humour. Recommended !

Zagoria Valley trek in southern Albania

Reviewed May 31, 2024

I brought a group of experienced but aging friends from the U.K. to trek in southern Albania. A truly wonderful and memorable adventure that was made even more special by our guide, Arben ‘Benny’ Kola. He looked after us, educated us and entertained us to a level that I have rarely if ever encountered in some forty years of working in the travel industry. He’s a gem and huge fun with it!

Arben really deserves to be ranked No 1 of the guides to Tirana - and Albania. He was knowledgeable and patient with our group, accepting and dealing with all our needs on our short trip to Albania. I loved the way he shared with us the challenges of life in a country that is going through many changes, as well as giving us a detailed history of the past. If you need someone to guide you into special places that are not easily found in the guidebooks, then Arben will be a delightful companion. Just watch how he is greeted enthusiastically by friends as he travels about. You'll recognise him as he wears a white felted wool hat called a plis and you may even get to visit the place where it is made.

Fantastic guide

Reviewed April 8, 2024

Arben was a fantastic guide. His itinerary was a great over view of Albania and his amazing wealth of knowledge is imparted with enthusiasm and a great sense of humor. If I return to Albania I will definitely look him up. In addition Arben has the patience of a saint and a great singing voice.

An excellent introduction to Albania, with Arben as our very knowledgeable and patient guide.

A really good mix of things to see in a short space of time, but we never felt rushed.
