3.Day Tour to Permet Thermal Baths and Langarica Canyon

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 18 reviews · 7 hours · from $92

Travel by small group from Sarandë or Gjirokastër to Benja Thermal Baths and Langarica Canyon with an English-speaking driver-guide. You’ll soak under the Ottoman Kadiut Bridge, walk through a river canyon, and stop at Tepelenë and Këlcyrë. Guide Klajdi has earned special praise for his fluent English, careful driving, and helpful local advice.

“Deze tour was ontzettend leuk en ik zou het zeker aanraden! De thermale baden en de Langarica-kloof zijn prachtig en Klajdi is een ontzettend aardige gids die zijn best doet om het iedereen naar de zin te maken. Zorg wel dat je genoeg eten en drinken meeneemt, want bij de thermale baden zijn geen voorzieningen. Waterschoenen zijn een must. En houdt er rekening mee dat je lang onderweg bent, vanaf Sarandë ruim 2 uur. Dit vonden wij niet erg omdat je onderweg prachtige uitzichten hebt. Het was een hele leuke en mooie ervaring!”
