    Kristen

    Asked on March 29th, 2026

    I'm looking into this trip, and I was wondering if luggage transfers were included.

    Transport
    • InAlb TPP ShpkOperator•Written March 2026

      Yes, luggage transfers are included :)

  • G

    Glenn

    Asked on January 16th, 2026

    I do have some questions about the distance of the hiking - I am an avid hiker and would like more specific details.

    Tour Details
    • InAlb TPP ShpkOperator•Written January 2026

      Regarding the hiking, this tour includes several walks and hikes, but nothing extreme or technical.
      The most challenging hike is the Theth to Valbona trail, which usually takes 4 5 hours at a comfortable pace. It is a well marked path and suitable for hikers with good general fitness.
      All other hikes during the tour are much easier and shorter.
      At Mount Gramozi, if you choose to hike up to the glacier viewpoint, the walk takes approximately 2-3 hours uphill and the same time to return. This hike requires an intermediate fitness level, but again there is no technical trekking, climbing or exposure involved.
      Overall, the tour is designed for travelers who enjoy nature and hiking, without involving extreme or high risk trekking.

      Glenn

      Traveler•Written January 2026

      I am curious about the daily distance for a friend who might want to join. Can you approximate the distance of the overall trip for me?

      Glenn

      Traveler•Written January 2026

      Recently, the US government changed the visa situation with Albania. Does this mean that I will need to obtain a visa to visit Albania?

    • InAlb TPP ShpkOperator•Written January 2026

      Below I've outlined the approximate hiking distances so you and your friend can get a clear idea of the daily effort involved:

      1. Bovilla Lake & Gamti Mountain (near Tirana) - Distance: 6.5 miles.
      2. Theth to Valbonë Hike (Albanian Alps) - Distance: 10 miles
      3. Osumi Canyon (near Çorovod ë) - Distance: 7 miles.
      4. Mount Gramoz "Glacier" Hike - Distance: approx. 8 miles
      5. Holta Canyon - Estimated distance: approx. 5 miles.
      6. Lepushë to Rosni Peak: approx. 8 miles

      No visa is required for U.S. passport holders visiting Albania. You may enter freely for tourist stays, so there is nothing additional you need to arrange before arrival.
