I would like to book flights on return daty at 21:15? are we expected to reach tirana in time for me to reach airport?

Is vegetarian/vegan food available easily?

This tour will be in May 2027. We will be a group of 8 people with some Senior Citizens. I wanted to make sure there can be accommodations for Seniors who can not walk for long distances with perhaps a rest stop or a place they can sit and wait while the rest of the group continues.

Yes, certainly. We can accommodate senior travelers by adjusting the pace of the tour, including regular rest stops, and arranging comfortable places where they can sit and relax if they prefer not to walk longer distances.

is this tour guaranteed for depart 15 august?? or will it depend on numbers. I am a single traveller.

To guarantee the departure, we require a minimum of 3 travelers booked on the same date. At the moment, you are the only traveler booked for the 15 August 2026 departure. That said, this is one is a popular tour, so we are optimistic that we will reach the minimum number of participants.

Private Double room accommodations is it private rooms or shared rooms for this price

The price is based on shared rooms if you are travelling solo. Also, the tour requires a minimum of 3 guests to be confirmed.

Could you please let us know if there is availability for the tour on May 31st? Also, is the tour guaranteed to run, and would it be possible for you to provide pre and post-accommodation options?

We do not have that tour guaranteed yet on the 31st as it requires a minimum of 3 guests.

Do you provide INVITATION LETTER for Albania Visa support

Unfortunatelly we do not provida invitation letters

Do you provide a supporting invitation letter for visa?

We would be happy to have you join us but we can not provide a visa invitation as it is not allowed for us.

We wanted to find out if we can extend our tour by 1 day to explore the Albania Riveria. Can you please let us know if there are more interesting attractions in this tour extension compared to Day 2 of your tour? If not, can you recommend any other tour extensions for 1-2 days? We are mostly interested in culture & outdoor activities. Also, one of us is a vegetarian (eggs ok; no fish / meat) - would the food options include anything more than salads / bread & cheese?

Regarding the vegetarian option, in most places you will have plenty of choices as Albania is becoming more aware of these options. If you are looking to add more days, I would suggest "Best of Albania – 6 days Multidays tour of Nature and Culture". We should keep in mind that the tours can be private or shared. The private option is more expensive but has a guaranteed departure. The shared option requires 4 participants at least.
