2.Saranda, Blue Eye & Ksamil Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.9 · 652 reviews · 1 day · from $56

One long day from Tirana or Durrës: Saranda, Ksamil beaches, and the Blue Eye spring. Swim, walk, and cool off at Syri i Kalter.

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Wonderful day trip — highly recommended! We had a fantastic day on this tour with our guide, Ervin. The morning started at the Blue Eye, which was absolutely stunning and felt really peaceful. Then we headed to Sarandë for lunch — a nice chance to enjoy some local food by the coast. The highlight for me was Ksamil in the afternoon, where we had time to relax and enjoy the beautiful clear water and beach views. Ervin was friendly, informative, and kept everything well-organized without rushing us. A great mix of nature, sightseeing, and relaxation — definitely worth it!”

★★★★★★★★★★4.9 · 428 reviews · 870 minutes - 16 hours · from $57

Full-day Albania south trip from Tirana and Durres to UNESCO Gjirokaster and beach time in Saranda and Ksamil.

“The excursion was highly enjoyable. Although Gjirokastra is quite distant, the destination's enchanting atmosphere made the journey worthwhile. The local populace was exceptionally welcoming and amiable. Bledi proved to be both engaging and knowledgeable, demonstrating a clear passion for his work. The trip's cost was justified, particularly given the considerable distance from Tirana, and the journey itself was remarkably serene and stress-free. I highly recommend this trip.”

Enough to see the area and enjoy some times. For someone first time in America or traveling alone with small groups of friends, this is perfect trip to experience south Albania if you are not sure taking the local bus alone. Will definitely recommend”

He also briefed us on history and other noted places we saw along the way. We had also sometime on our own to explore. On his recommendation, I visited Skenduli House and Museum of Ethnography, and tried local cuisine, oshaf (fig dessert) is so good. Weather was great too!”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 107 reviews · 14 hours · from $60

Blue Eye spring, Ksamil beaches, Saranda viewpoints, and Lëkurësi Castle from Tirana, with AC transport and an island boat trip.

“The advertised activity needs amending to reflect its a lot longer than the advertised 11-12 hours. Pick up was 8 when I booked the trip but 6:15am we were actually picked up and didn’t get back until 9:30pm. We also didn’t stay at the locations for the specified time in the advert so this needs changing if it’s not correct. Not much opportunity at all to purchase food during the day. We stoped at 10am then around 5:30pm. The morning stop sold only 3 items, bread roll, pie and another item. The evening stop didn’t have a menu at all just verbally advised what they sold which was limited. You…”
