Pogradec Travel Guides (Updated September 2026)

We booked this private tour and it turned out to be a highlight of our trip. Right from the start, Eljo went out of his way to pick us up directly in Ohrid, making the logistics incredibly smooth and stress-free. Eljo is an excellent guide. He is highly knowledgeable, genuinely entertaining, and brings a lot of fun to the day. Instead of just rattling off dry historical facts and dates, he shares the stories behind the sites with a lot of passion, which gave us a fantastic look into Albanian and Illyrian history! The historical locations on this itinerary are unique and fascinating. Crucially, these are places you would likely never manage to reach or find on your own. The sites are hidden deep in the mountainous region, making Eljo’s insider knowledge and comfortable car absolutely essential for the journey. It genuinely feels like discovering a pristine, authentic hidden gem far off the beaten path.The entire experience was comfortable, professional, and deeply enriching. If you are near Lake Ohrid and want a unique, meaningful insight into the region's ancient history, we 100% recommend booking this tour with Eljo.

We booked a tour with Lihnid Tours to visit the Royal Tombs of Selca and the Lin Peninsula, and it turned out to be one of the most memorable experiences of our trip to Albania! If you want to truly understand and feel the spirit of this region, Lihnid Tours is the best choice. This was not just sightseeing – it was an enriching journey full of history, beauty, and unforgettable moments. Highly recommended!

At the end of a charming little mountain road with beautiful villages and viewpoints, and a forest trail, we arrive at this unexpected and almost unknown site of the Albanians: sculpted cave tombs of Hellenistic period. Worth a visit
