What to expect
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Komani Lake, Koman Albania
We will start our Tour from Tirana at 06:00 . After the breakfast on the way the first attraction is Komani lake . It was formed when the rugged Drini valley was dammed in the early 1970s, allowing Albania to quickly develop its own industrial base and become an energy exporter. We start the boat trip , who passes between 1000-1500m-high mountains and through a series of deep gorgeous and interconnected lakes, with hardly any signs of human activities on the shores . The way to Shala river is 1h 30 min by boat and the same time back .
Duration: 3 hours
Stop At: Shala River, Albania
Shala’s River is a touristic destination that is described by many visitors as the most beautiful pearl of Koman’s lake, as Thailand of Albania . The hazy color of water and it’s crystal clean water is characteristic of this river. The steep huge rocks, worn by trees and green plants, seem to rise to the sky to protect this beauty that so generously mother nature has offered to our eyes and hearts.
Don’t forget to bring your swimming suits with you as some of us will dare to swim in this paradise so called the Albanian Thailand. We get back on the boat to Komani Damn at around 15:30 pm. From here we drive back to Tirana after a long but unforgettable experience.
Duration: 5 hours

Beautiful experience by tour guide Riges told his story with passion and enthusiasm, which made it very pleasant to listen to. His knowledge about the city showed, even more, when he answered other questions that weren't prepared for. Highly recommend taking this tour!

We went on this trip august 2023. Very beautiful boat ride and riverside. Just as in the pictures. Though the best part of this trip was our guide, Klajdi. He paid so much attention to everyone and made sure everyone were okay. He even had aspirin available if you needed it. We forgot to bring cash and none of the restaurants by the river took card. Klajdi was so kind to borrow us cash. He’s truly a kind and warm person. We recommend it!! Best regards Omar and Anna
