“We had so much fun with Vjosa Explorer Rafting. Irma is extremely passionted and motivated the group (though it was not necessary) as we were eager to explore Vjosa but they care about every single detail, safety first. We received proper tools, clothes, instructions etc. Also, they served some fruits and cookies during the trip, water was also provided. We got also proper explanation about the river and its newly established National Park. For me it was an unforgetable experience as I wanted to explore and feel the last wild river in Europe! I hope it stays that way, a "homage" to river Vjosa!”

Soak in Benja’s sulfur springs, walk Langarica Canyon, and see Këlcyrë Gorge on a private half-day tour from Saranda.
“Absolutely amazing experience! This is really something you have to take the opportunity to experience, it is a memory for life. We got a super nice and professional guide, he showed us through the langarica canyon and we got to swim in three natural mineral baths. The walk through the canyon was on foot through water/mud/stone so swimming shoes are a must. Can't describe how nice it is. The guide was familiar and recommended us to leave earlier to avoid the heat and crowds of people, which was a stroke of genius. We had time to swim and hike for hours before the heat came and the crowds of people…”
