- Fleur· March 31st, 2025Me and my friend joined this tour in January operated by Choose Balkans. We had the time of our life while exploring the region. Everything was well organised. A huge thank you to our guide Ana who made this trip a memorable one.Show more
- John· July 5th, 2025Our small group tour, “Pearls of Albania” was simply put, fantastic! We saw such a range of places and did a great deal of hiking but above all we learned so much! Our guide, Migen was extremely knowledgeable and helpful in every aspect of the trip!! MANY kudos to him! He not only knew the basics about places we visited but the greater depth of history and made the places come alive, we could actually feel like we were walking on the very stones that so many people had tread on before us. Very impressive! The many places we visited were well rounded and varied. The hotels and meals excellent. Also Migen gave us suggestions for meals and activities when he dropped us off at the end of the day for food, shopping, more history, etc. Truly wish we could have stayed longer! From the snow-capped mountain and ice cold fresh water for drinking all the way to the Rivieria there is no end of gorgeous scenery to visit! And I must not fail to mention the delicious food and congeniality of the people! Always ready to smile :)! We felt very safe (although the driving was quite scary!!) as Migel ,!Show more
- Maria· July 1st, 2025Jonathan, our Albanian driver and tour guy was very helpful, nice . We lucky to have him , very polite, always ask what we like , want . The hotels was clean and comfortable.Show more

Asked on December 28th, 2024I am very interested in this tour and another tour - Small Group Tour; Gems of Albania, Kosovo & N. Macedonia and would like to know if there is a single supplement for solo traveler or you could pair me with another same gender (female) solo traveler. My travel date is flexible.
- Choose BalkansOperator•Written December 2024
For the tour of Serbia, Bulgaria and Romania, we do not have others confirm yet but you can book with a single supplement. The tour now has 10% sale. For the tour of Gems of Albania, Kosovo & N. Macedonia from Tirana we have the below confirm departure. Dates: 11 May, 9 October. Price: 1,317 Euros / Person + 315 Euros for the single room.

Traveler•Written December 2024I had not realized the Semi-Private Tour; Serbia, Bulgaria & Romania from / to Belgrade is so expensive for solo traveler supplement, it's double the price. Looks like if I were to take this tour I will have to find a friend to join me. Gems of Albania, Kosovo & N. Macedonia from Tirana looks more affordable for me with supplement, but the confirmed departure dates you recommended are not agreeable with me.
- Choose BalkansOperator•Written December 2024
The single supplement fee guarantees the tour departure even for one participant. That is why the price is more expensive. It would be great if you can find someone to join you on the tour. In regards to Gems of Albania, Kosovo & N. Macedonia from Tirana, this tour is one of our best selling so if you can check at a later stage we might have more confirm departures.
