Very nice to have been to Albania for a day. We had a very friendly guide. We have been to an old part of Albania and to a modern city Pogradec. We visited an authentic market and we really dived into a different culture. It was very nice to have a guide who is well known in Albania, could help us with accessibility to the people there and to pay with Albanian Lek.

This was such an amazing experience. The guide was great and told us so much about the areas we visited. In just a few hours, you’ll make a tour around the lake, and it’s totally worth it. I definitely recommend going on this tour as the views are just beautiful.

This is, in my opinion, one of the best money-for-experience one can undertake near Ohrid. It's basically a quick detour into the soviet era and current side of Albania. Our tour guide was absolutely great! Being both informative and joking at the appropriate occasions. We were a group of around 15 people. We were picked up between 7 and 8 from our hotel and drove a little less than an hour to Albania. Our border crossing didn't take long (15 minutes or so, but I've been told that this can vary greatly) and then we were in Albania. The bus driver drove from place to place, going first to a village, then to some left over bunkers and finally to Pogradec. The village (Lin) was a little bit of a culture shock, with villagers still having to get water using a barrel for instance. Additionally, the remains of a very old Bassilica (church) with beautifully well preserved ornaments and mosaics can be visited on top of a hill. The best part of the journey was actually visiting Pogradec itself. It's both modern and old-fashioned. I loved walking around the parks and viewing groups of old men playing board games and people playing (mostly non-English music). The tour through the city was really nice, especially through the old-market. Essentially: this tour allows one to visit another country, a beautiful city, and a bit of space which feels like another time.

With our fantastic and very professional guide Tracje and driver Agim we had an incredibly beautiful tour, including a very special wine tasting! They always managed to deliver real added value in their own enthusiastic way. They spontaneously shared their vast knowledge with us and always contributed to the great atmosphere in our group.

Interesting trip from Ohrid town through to Albania. A little disappointed that we didn’t stop at the bunkers or Struga as advertised but a good day with a lovely, safe driver and interesting tour guide.

Had lovely tour guide called Vlad. Nice trip for going around the lake which North macedonia shares with Albania. You will need to have good walking legs as you climb up a hill in the village of Lyn. The village is little but very traditional fishing village. It is a must see ladies have table out selling there wares. Can't describe it you must go. Nearby are bunkers that you can if you want too. They is a restaurant and bar that looks over Lake beautiful views. The next bit is the city tour for an hour then two hours free time. The bizzar/market is good. Plenty of restaurants to choose from. Only issue is passport control you have to hand when going from one counrty to another about thirty minutes wait. If you got little one not advisable due to climb but school children plus should ok.

I found this trip very interesting and glad I went on it even though it took us 1.5hrs to cross the border from North Macedonia to Albania as the guide suggested we did the circular of the lake this way rather than get held up later.We visited a small authentic village first called “Lin” where we stopped for coffee and a rest break before continuing to walk through the village up to a fantastic view point encompassing both countries,this was breathtaking as well as the walk up!We then went on to view the old bunkers before boarding the coach to Pogradec where we had a small guided tour then free time for lunch.It was a long day but well worth it,the guide was very engaging and it was set at a good pace with plenty of opportunities for photo stops to capture many memories.

What a great day out, 2 very different places plus a complete circle of the lake. Lin was a very authentic village with some lovely ruins, a mosaic, and a great view right at the top, then we stopped at the bunkers, The information was excellent and easy to follow. Lastly, we headed to Pogradec, which was a larger seaside/lakeside town. It was interesting to see the Albanian version of Ohrid (it was a far newer city which had some nice development), we stopped for beers and lunch, which was very nice.

Interesting and varied trip around the lake into Albania, taking in some historic sites, and the town of Pogredec. Convenient pick-up and drop-off and friendly and informative guide.

The driver & guide were both good. However, the route was in the opposite direction. We went to Lin first (interesting historic small village on the lake) bi-passing Struga & the Black Drin & only saw Hoxha's bunkers from afar (not a photo stop although probably not worth it). We had a tour of Pogradec & then time to wonder alone/ eat etc. Very cheap there!
