NORTH ALBANIA TOURS
Read moreThis Albanian agency based in Shkodra offers excursions to the Albanian Alps and Lake Koman. It organizes accommodation, activities (such as cooking classes) and transport for individuals and groups in Albania and to neighboring countries. Very practical for the Theth, Valbona and Koman areas. We particularly recommend it for its horse riding, itineraries and stops at farms and wineries in the Shkodra region. Prices on request.
