5.00Pavel was our guide and he was great. We learned so much I can’t believe how he retains all of that info. The service is great, too. It was a very hot day but the van you take has AC and is comfortable. The location is spectacular as well. They have done some restoration so it helps you get a better idea of how they lived. I highly recommend taking this tour!
Very good service and...

5.00Pavel was a remarkable font of information guiding us through a beautiful site. His descriptions were lively and entertaining — as well as covering a wide range of relevant perspectives and eras of development of the Monte Albanian complex. Really great experience.
