GUIDED TOURS
Learn more about people and country, and meet like-minded travellers!
Our guided tours are the best way to turn the daunting prospect of travelling to a new country with an unknown language, culture and customs into an exciting, rewarding, and worry-free active holiday. If you want to truly get to know the beautiful mountains and rich history of Albania and its neighbouring countries, the best way is having one of our passionate guides show you around.
Our guided tours are led by experienced tour leaders, who love the outdoors and bring an intimate knowledge of local traditions, customs and history that will enrich your journey. We pride ourselves of working with the best guides in Albania, who are rigorously and regularly trained for your safety, and committed to providing you with an unforgettable experience of the Albanian hospitality.
Our tours are either running as group tours on set dates and with a maximum of 8 to 12 like-minded travelers, as private trips with the option to customize the itinerary, or as local-guided experiences.

All transfers on time
The food: always too much, the best thing was to be able to put together your own dinner.
The weather: about 30° daily with some rain one day
Please note: the walks are not to be underestimated. On average we gained more than 1000 meters of altitude per day. We did walk all optional walks.
Zbulo does provide abbreviations here and there or options for additional transfer if things become a little more difficult.

Everything – truly wonderful experience and Park in Montenegro and circular walk was my highlight
Use Zbulo and arrange soon as my fear is that in years to come the routes/accommodation will become over developed

The walk from Doberdol to Millshevc was a highlight in terms of scenery, as was the walk to Babino Polje (which gets very close to the Doberdol Millshevc route as well). The last full day's walk from Vusanje to Theth was also spectacular. However, there were no days when the walking was not very good.

The walk from Doberdol to Millshevc was a highlight in terms of scenery, as was the walk to Babino Polje (which gets very close to the Doberdol Millshevc route as well). The last full day’s walk from Vusanje to Theth was also spectacular. However, there were no days when the walking was not very good.
Certainly to do it. We found the infrastrcuture quite developed and the hosts and service providers along the way knew exactly what they were doing. Some of the accomodation was more basic, but never bad, and if one night was more basic generally the next was more luxurious, so never long without a very good shower and bed. The walking is relaitvely easy and the daily distance and vertical very manageable – epecially with bags being ported for you.

Vusanje – Theth, Doberdol, Grbaja
Great nature experience. Technically not very demanding but physically challenging, a mix of fairly basic and quite modern accommodation. Some hosts very friendly and open, others rather distant.
