Description

Escape the crowds and discover one of Albania’s most spectacular natural destinations on a premium small-group day trip from Lezhë & Shëngjin. Unlike larger bus tours, you’ll travel in a comfortable Mercedes minivan, allowing for a more relaxed, flexible and personal experience throughout the day. Your journey begins with pickup in Lezhë or Shëngjin before heading towards Lake Koman. Along the way, we make a short 15–20 minute stop in the way to Koman , giving everyone the opportunity to enjoy a quick coffee, breakfast or snacks before continuing. Upon arrival at Lake Koman, board the boat and cruise through one of Europe’s most breathtaking landscapes. Surrounded by towering mountains and crystal-clear emerald waters, this spectacular route is often compared to the famous Norwegian fjords and is considered one of Albania’s greatest natural wonders. After approximately one hour on the lake, you’ll reach the beautiful Shala River. Enjoy around 4 hours of free time to swim in the crystal-clear water, relax on the beach, enjoy lunch by the river, rent a kayak or simply admire the untouched scenery. Our small-group format offers a quieter and more comfortable experience than large coach tours, with more personal assistance throughout the day and a relaxed atmosphere from start to finish. After your free time, board the boat for the return cruise across Lake Koman before heading back comfortably to Lezhë & Shëngjin in your Mercedes minivan. This experience is perfect for travelers looking for breathtaking scenery, comfortable transportation and a more intimate way to discover one of Albania’s most unforgettable destinations.
