About the operator
- HappyHammer6900Great food, wine and laughter!We had a great time with Sindi cooking traditional Albanian dishes and we had a great group of people to share it with. Don’t book this if you need to drive anywhere afterwards we were very well looked after. Lots of good food, wine and laughter!
- Max P00Lovely people, great foodCannot fault the guys with this. Good fun from beginning to end and all taught brilliantly. Don't worry if your Google maps doesn't get you quite there they'll have someone nearby looking for the lost tourist! All in all a wonderful experience would recommend to everyone.
- unog47700Nice day trip to Ohrid from TiranaA long car-drive to get to Ohrid, but thanks to a very informative driver (Julio/xhulio) we got a lot of information during the ride. His English was also excellent. Smooth border crossings. Nice restaurant for lunch in Ohrid.
- lilamoys00Fill the local pulse of AlbaniaIt was an amazing trip with "Go As Local". I absolutely felt the local vibes all across, as I experienced the local culture, local food, spent time with village people, stopped the car on the midway and plucked wild Berrys - i totally soak into local cultures with breathtaking vlews of nature. Thanks to my guide Endri, who has good knowledge about local cultures, history and moreover he is a vibrant easygoing person. He was always there to accomodate my convenience. We had good boys' time out together. Andi, thank you for helping me with customized itenerary. It was totally worth.
- pogyy00Fabulous cooking class!Just returned home from a wonderful culinary experience and had to take a moment to write a review. Sindi’s traditional cooking class was so well organized and very delicious. From the homemade wine her father made, the butter her mother whipped and the delicious meal she taught us to cook, to the venue itself (her city home) the entire experience felt authentically Albania. Si do herself was so lovely and had a wonderfully laid back personality which lent ease and fun to the afternoon. I highly recommend this activity and strongly encourage you to COME HUNGRY!!
- AnnaR381100Great guide, great food, great experienceAron was a good guide. We had a great experience, delicious food but the Raki was a interesting and different treat.
- helenlU4304XF00Spectacular viewsWe had Josef as our guide and he was so helpful to us and the other couple on the tour. He knew the area well and gave us lots of advice as it was our first time in Albania. The lake and mountains are stunning and Josef kindly took pictures for us too.
- Leanne C00Great trip 👌Excellent trip, a little pricey but overall good. Tour guide Reidi was fab and lunch in Prizren was fantastic, was a small number only 3 so very private tour which made it better and a great coffee stop on the way with amazing views
- W1510EHmelissam00Amazing trip to the southWe had an amazing day with our tour guide Josef. He showed us the nicest places along the Riviera and told some interesting facts about the places we saw. We ended our day at the blue eye for a refreshing swim. We definitely loved this tour and would recommend it to anyone!
- AFM4GM00Wonderful experienceCindy was absolutely great! Well organized and very nice to deal with. The kitchen where the preparation took place was very inviting and everything was laid out ready. It was lovely to have a chance to speak to a local Albanian and to get an insight into life there. We all had a very memorable time !
- 155jayesh00Visit of Lake Ohrid and Stuga in North Macedonia. I enjoyed the day trip to Struga & Ohrid Lake.Day trip to Strega and Ohrid lake was so much fun. Redi, the guide explained history in detail. He picked me up from my hotel on time. It was fun talking with Redi while he was driving to both places. I recommend this tour for nature lovers and to them who is interested to know about the history of Strega. Redi is awesome to have as guide.
- 65samerf00Amazing Day Trip from Tirana!Amazing day trip from Tirana! Xhulio is extremely knowledgeable and I really enjoyed the scenic views of the Albanian Riviera. Saranda and the Blue Eye are must see destinations when visiting the region. It was a long day (13+ hours) but Xhulio made the drive comfortable and we stopped along the way for coffee breaks. Overall, a wonderful excursion/experience and will definitely not hesitate to recommend Xhulio and company again for another tour!
- K3896UUalanac00So worth it!Ohrid was absolutely amazing. The city is gorgeous. It's almost like walking on a dream! M Our tour guide (Redi) picked me up at my address (loved not having to commute), and was super responsive to the needs of the group. I can't recommend it enough!
- 653ismailo00Nice tour !We were in Tirana and we made choose to visir Ohrid "Jerusalem of Europe". It was a nice tour over Ohrid lake. Our guide was very kind and tried to answer all our questions about Albania and Ohrid.
- Curious2700A great way to start your stay in Tirana.This tour was the perfect way to spend our first day in Tirana. Redi is a wealth of information and is willing to answer any questions about the city, country, politics, youth, etc. The food was terrific… definitely foods we would never have thought to try. We highly recommend this tour.

You cannot get a better tour in Albania than this one nor a better guide than Goaslocal and Andi. Informative, flexible, friendly and helpful he also helped me a lot by getting me through what is a slightly arduous trek on day 2 - especially for those of us with a fear of heights or ridge walks.
The scenery is as good as it gets anywhere I’ve travelled worldwide - and I’ve done a lot - the food is good and healthy, accommodation is good considering the remote locations with showers and even WiFi to post some pics online.
Andi was sufficiently flexible to pick me up and drop me at my location rather than a pre defined location and to assist me in many ways that were above and beyond the normal expectations for these types of tours answering many questions about future travel plans and costs in Albania and beyond. Cannot recommend this tour more highly but day two does require fitness and will be stressful in a couple of small parts if you are scared of heights so do be fully up front when booking.

the organization of the trip was tricky due to the very slow, only reactive response of the organizers. once set up however, we felt in good hands and enjoyed the very nice accomodation :) it was also comfortable not having to haggle with drivers at the ferry and to just follow somebody instead.
one disappointing aspect, and the main reason why we booked the (quite expensive) tour was to learn about Albanian culture and nature along the hike. our guide unfortunatly was not very talkative, mainly on the phone and only shared stories when proactively asked. while being sympathetic and a good guy to hang out with, we didn't really feel like he cared about us as guests.

I usually do not write reviews but I have to make an exception here because this tour was truly amazing and was one of my best traveling experiences so far! Together with two other Swiss girls, we had Redi as tour guide. The mixture of nature, people, hospitality, food and locations was unique and unforgettable. First, the ferry trip of the first day was breathtaking with continuous views of mountains, forests and high rocks falling down the river/lake. Second, the hike of the day after was very well organized and words can’t really describe the beauty of the high mountain pics present throughout all the way from Valbone to Theth. Third, I really loved the discovery trip of Theth on the last day, with another hike to remember, a beautiful waterfall and canyon but also the church and the isolation tower, rich in history and traditions. These are just the main highlights without forgetting all the small details, hidden places and amazing time we spent together with Redi and the other drivers.
Five stars are not enough to rate this tour!
Thank you so much and I hope to see you again, in another tour next year 😊

The best 3 days during my stay in Albania.
Very well organized tour, warm-hearted and knowledgeable guide. They take all your personal preferences into consideration and super caring.
Amazing nature sceneries without crowded visitors in comparison with some popular destinations.
Clean and authentic guesthouse, people are extremely kind in the mountain area.
Vegetables are super fresh. If you’re into taste local food, it’s also an great tour for food.
If you’re a picky eater, suggest bring some snacks with yourself and don’t over pack.
The weather in the evening might be a bit chilling but was one of the must do in Albania.
Definitely recommended.

I made this trip a couple of days ago and it was just amazing! You cant visit Albania without doing the hike from Valbona to Theth, the sceneries are stunning, you want to capture every second because its to beautiful to miss a piece. I went on this tour with Josef and he is the ferrari’s under the Albanian guides, better said he is pure quality, he takes really good care of the group, he is funny, knows his stuff and he is just one of the group. We started the group as strangers but we ended up as friends, and thats what going abroad its all about, including the beautiful country of Albania.

Tour is amazing, locations included are so beautiful! Andi was so helpful as the tour I booked had no other people booked onto but he helped to sort this out for me. Kevi was the tour guide and he was really friendly and super generous. Both made my time on this trip as enjoyable as possible. Day 2 hike was difficult but so worth it for the views. Couldn’t recommend this tour or this company anymore, great way to experience Albanias sights and local culture. :)

Did the 3day hike from Valbone to Theth with Go as Local. AMAZING! The route is doable but really nice, the guide Daniel was very attentive and knowledgeable. The group we has was also really nice. All in all a fantastic experience. Can you do this hike yourself? Yes probably, but not having to arrange anything is amazing.
I also read the few negative reviews and I can understand some of them. It is difficult to put all information into the folder so just ask them any question you have beforehand. I have done so a million times and they were always ready to answer me. Most information is in the explanatory tour but just be aware that you take with you on the 3 days what you need because you have to bring it along. What you do not need can either stay behind in the Go as Local office or -if applicable- in your hotel.
So do I recommend them? Most definitely. You do not have to worry about anything and you definitely will have an amazing experience! Thanks again guys!

We booked this tour with Go as Local, because we didn't want to drive all the way up to the north by ourselves. We were picked up in our hotel in Tirana and everything felt so familiar from the start, as we were just 3 people doing the tour. The drive on the ferry with its beautiful scenery was only the beginning of a wonderful journey. The guest houses were wonderful and the food of best quality. We really enjoyed the hike on day 2 in this wonderful landscape. All in all a perfect way to see some parts of the Albanian alps, enjoying good company with the guide/drivers and getting to know this amazing country a little bit better.

Valbona is a very dreamy place that will change you in a GOOD way. It’s as beautiful as the Swiss Alps but the price won’t break the bank. Our 3 days with our guide Andi were worth remembering. We did amazing hikes, enjoyed beautiful sceneries, stayed in Jezerca’s beautiful cabin, and ate lots of amazing food! Andi is very fluent in English and always has an answer to every question. I call him a “walking encyclopedia” because he truly is. 🤣 He was also very patient and supportive to me and my cousin who aren’t experienced hikers. On our way back home, we passed by Prizren Kosovo which was a sweet way to end our wonderful trip. 🤍
