Everything was well-organized and our guide was super knowledgeable. The combination of nature and history made it feel balanced and not too tiring.
Belsh Lake was a peaceful start and Berat is a jewel! Walking across the Gorica Bridge was like stepping back in time. Great tour overall.
Really enjoyed the castle and the traditional feel of Berat. Could’ve used a bit more time inside the museum, but it was still worth the trip.
The castle and the Gorica Bridge were the highlights. The walk between the old neighborhoods was lovely and the free time was just right.
