What you can expect

Immerse yourself in the breathtaking scenery of the Albanian Alps on a comprehensive day trip to Komani Lake and the Shala River. This tour combines a scenic mountain drive, a ferry cruise through dramatic fjords, and relaxation at one of Albania’s most beautiful swimming spots.

Start the journey in Shkoder in the morning with a comfortable transfer by air-conditioned minivan. Admire the scenic views of the Drin Valley and the winding mountain roads during the 90-minute drive to the Koman Terminal.

Board a boat for a 60-minute cruise across Komani Lake. Often compared to the Norwegian Fjords, the lake cuts through towering limestone cliffs and emerald waters, offering unparalleled photo opportunities.

Arrive at the Shala River, a hidden paradise known for its crystal-clear, icy blue waters. Spend approximately 4 hours exploring at your own pace. Swim in the refreshing river, relax on the riverbank, or purchase lunch at a local rustic restaurant. For the adventurous, optional activities like kayaking and ziplining are available on-site. Return to Shkoder in the late afternoon with a boat ride and transfer back to the meeting point.
