5 out of 5 from 59 Google reviews
“I went all alone in this adventure, at first sceptical and anxious but then Klajdi the guide was very professional, kind and helpful and made me very comfortable . Took very nice photos of me . We made a lot of stops to explore first bovilla and the guide helped me overcome my fear of heights, then the national park if Qafshtama after that in kruja . It was a very remarkable experience . Totally recommend”
“We had a great time with Vladimir he took us to Bovilla lake and showed us the lookout spot and told us the history of the area. It was great and had stunning views.”
“I had an amazing buggy experience in Bovilla! The trails were exciting, the views were breathtaking, and the buggies were powerful and well-maintained. The staff were friendly, professional, and made sure everyone felt safe throughout the ride. Driving through the beautiful mountains and countryside around Bovilla was unforgettable. If you’re looking for adventure, stunning scenery, and a fun day out, I highly recommend this buggy tour. Definitely one of the best experiences I’ve had in Albania. 5/5 stars!”
“Enjoyed a lot its more convincing to take buggys than bikes”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An Unforgettable Experience! Our Albanian Jeep Safari to Bovilla Lake was truly unforgettable! From start to finish, our tour guide went above and beyond to make sure we had the best possible experience. They were incredibly caring and supportive throughout the hike, always making sure we felt safe and comfortable. Their encouragement and patience helped us overcome our fears and push ourselves beyond what we thought we were capable of. It made the whole experience even more special and rewarding. The breathtaking views, the adventure, and the amazing guidance made this a memory we will never forget. You could really see how much they cared about giving us an incredible day, rather than simply taking us on a tour. Highly recommend this tour and especially our amazing guide! 5 stars without a doubt! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

Questions guests ask
Do I drive the Jeep?
No - on the Jeep, the FJ Cruiser and the Hummer one of our drivers is at the wheel, so you can look out of the window instead of at the track. You drive the buggy.
Can I drive the buggy?
Yes - every buggy is self-drive with a normal car licence: the 2-seaters take two, the 4-seater takes four. Helmets and goggles are included, and one of our team leads the run.
Is pickup included?
In Tirana and at Rinas airport, yes - free on every tour. Anywhere else, Durrës included, costs a small fee we agree with you in advance. The buggy run starts at the Bovilla base, and we can arrange the transfer there.
Do I need to pay a deposit?
No. Nothing is paid on the website or in advance - you pay the driver on the day, in cash or by card.
Can you pick us up from the airport?
Yes - Rinas (Tirana International) is in the free pickup zone. Tell us your flight and we meet you at arrivals.
Can we book a private tour?
Yes - any route can run as a private tour for your party alone. Ask on WhatsApp and we quote it for your group size and vehicle.
