"Amazing!"
I had an incredible experience with Info Point Albania! The tours were fantastic – I did the Berat Day Trip and Albanian Riviera Beach Tour, and both were beyond expectations. The guides were friendly, informative, and really brought the destinations to life.
The booking process was smooth, and everything was well organized. I felt like I got a real insider’s view of Albania without any stress. Great value, amazing service, and unforgettable memories. I’ll definitely be booking with them again!

CEOApple"A Dream Come True!"
Info Point Albania gave me a truly unforgettable experience. From the moment I booked my tour, I felt like I was in good hands. The Albanian Alps Trek was out of this world – the views, the peacefulness, the hidden gems we discovered along the way – I wouldn’t have seen anything like that on my own.
What really set them apart, though, was the guide. Arben didn’t just show us the sights; he shared the heart and soul of Albania, weaving personal stories and local legends into every stop. You could feel his passion for his country.
