Itinerary
Day 1: Dubrovnik
After your Welcome Meeting, set out on a walk through Dubrovnik's Old Town. See Dubrovnik Cathedral, Lovrijenac Fort, a Franciscan Monastery, and feel the vibrant energy of this Unesco protected walled city.
Day 2: Dubrovnik/Kotor
You'll check out the historic village of Perast. Think marvellous buildings, postcard-like churches, and a romantic waterfront that seems to feature in every painting of European sailing towns. Rest of the day you get to hang out with your super cool and fun CEO. They will take you on a highlights walk of UNESCO protected Kotor and show you places like the Old City, St. Tryphon Cathedral, and the famous Clock Tower. Don't let the fun end here! Make a plan and keep hanging out and see if your CEO can accompany you to a few hole in the wall places that will make your time here truly unique.
Day 3: Kotor
The rest of the day belongs to you. Explore, bop around, and experience Kotor as you wish. Even if that means laying low at the hostel with a few friends, we won't judge, in fact, the best moments often happen when you least expect them. Cat lovers rejoice! Because Kotor has their very own Cat Museum you can visit. Not feeling an afternoon of felines? That's ok, walk into the impressive interior of St. Nicholas' Church, hop on a boat and visit Our Lady of the Rocks, or book an excursion to Blue Cave for a bucket-list worthy swim spot.
Day 4: Kotor/Tirana
Finish the day in Tirana with a half day guided walking tour through the streets featuring Skanderbeg Square!
Day 5: Tirana
Day 6: Tirana/Corfu
Day 7: Corfu
Searching for something more exciting and unique? Chill out on an olive oil tasting experience, or learn about bees and honey production in Corfu. Looking for more adventure? Visit an ancient monastery on steep cliffs overlooking the azure waters. Want to just relax? Lay out beachside working on your tan and swimming in the refreshing waters. Turns out you really can't go wrong on this Greek island. Tonight, opt to go out with the group to Corfu Town and hit up some of the best nightlife spots.

I had no idea what to expect but thoroughly enjoyed my tour. To be able to sit back and relax, yet still see so many sights in such a short space of time was ideal. The group we travelled with were great fun, the accommodation was nice.

I had great time and did feel that the tour offered a great mix of activity, sight seeing, party and learning about local culture and history.
08/29/2024
Overall, I had a great time and I loved this trip! This was my first group travel experience and I can definitely see myself doing once again. The biggest thing I wish I had known going in was knowing that there was a full month of travel planned with people.
08/21/2024
An amazing way to see multiple destinations with all the stress of organizing taking away from you. The group was amazing and the optional activities is a great way to fully experience each place.
08/20/2024
A well organized tour with a level of activity that suited everyone. CEO who was knowledgeable and available, checked in with everyone. Fantastic way to see the countries we visited.

Another really great G adventures trip with an amazing guide, well priced, with a bunch of like minded people all wanting to explore the world.
08/12/2024
Overall the trip was amazing. It was my first solo trip and I was very nervous. The trip has shown me places I would never have thought to visit, opened my eyes to new cultures, made new friends across the world and most importantly I have found a new company.
08/05/2024
Amazing locations, amazing group, perfect CEO. Favorite place was Kotor by a mile!! Each location was so unique it felt like a city break and a beach holiday one after the other!
08/04/2024
This was an adventure of a lifetime that I would thoroughly recommend to anyone who wants to immerse themselves in the culture of southern Europe.
07/18/2024
I had such a great time, made life long friends and I was just insane!
07/16/2024
The trip was amazing. It allowed me to explore many interesting places, whilst being able to meet people all across the world. Michal showed all of the places in a professional and fun way and we did many memorable activities such as a 6am fortress hike ...
06/18/2024
I thoroughly enjoyed my trip and travelling with G adventures. Michal was a fun tour guide and tried hard to ensure everyone had an amazing time.
11/09/2023
I did enjoy myself overall - it has made me realize that I like the smaller sized groups that typically come with the classic tour styles. A genuinely beautiful part of the world, which is largely forgotten, and I'd love to go back to that area again.

It was a whirlwind of an experience! We covered so much territory, and I'm thankful to have seen so many places that I knew little or nothing about. Maria was fantastic, and I'm grateful that I was lucky to have her as our guide!
10/24/2023
Overall, it was a great experience! We were able to meet some great people (including both fellow travelers as well as our wonderful CEO Maria), and see some really great sights! We had originally thought about planning our own trip, but trying to figure out.
09/12/2024
It was a really well organized tour, fast paced but saw so much, and a great CEO to guide us and take all the stress of travel away!
09/13/2024
I had so much fun on my G adventure tour, I just wish I could have stayed longer. I saw lots of amazing places and met lots of amazing people and it has definitely reignited my travel bug.
08/22/2024
I loved the people I met and the places I visited were beautiful, but it is misleading how much time and sights you will actually have time to see while on the trip.
10/22/2024
With such a small group, our CEO made the trip a blast with new lifelong friends. The destinations were beautiful, but the memories we shared will be everlasting. Thank you, G adventures and Justyna, for making yet another fantastic trip come true.
10/17/2024
Loved it! Would recommend this tour and company to anyone who asks, I loved the diversity of the group nationalities and the countries involved and I felt very cared for and looked after which gives my family at home some peace of mind.

Great 8 days - for the price I paid I was very happy. Made some great friends too which is always a bonus. :)
