This was our second day trip from Tirana, and we were lucky enough to have Ilir, the tour guide from our previous day's trip to Berat, for this trip to Shkoder. The views from the castle are incredible! For me, the views were the highlight of the trip. After a stroll around the city, we took a brief car ride to the side of Lake Shkoder for an outstanding lunch. Afterwards, we continued along the shore a bit further for some more awesome views to wrap it up before heading back to Tirana. Ilir was able to answer all of the large amount of questions I asked during our two days together. A very impressive guide, you should hope he is assigned to your booking!!!
