What you can expect

  • Your tour guide will pick you up from your accommodation and start the journey to the north of Albania. After about 2 hours, you will stop for a short break for coffee and snacks.

    Then you continue driving for another 2 hours to Komani Lake. From there, you walk through a 7-minute tunnel to reach the boat area, where the captain and guide will welcome you on board.

    Enjoy a 1-hour boat ride through stunning mountain views until you reach the Shala River. Here you will have free time to swim, relax, and enjoy nature. You can also have lunch at the restaurants, enjoy drinks at the bars, swim in the river, or rent kayaks for a fun experience on the water. There is also an optional short hike for those who want to explore more.

    After the visit, you meet your guide at the same spot and take the boat back. Then you continue by bus with a short stop on the way before returning to Durrës.
    Note: Sometimes food at the restaurants can take longer to prepare, so please plan your time well and relax while waiting.
