1.Zipline Adventure

★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 154 reviews · 1 day · from $29Our pick

Fly above the Erzen River and green hills on Albania’s first zipline, a short drive from Tirana. English-speaking guides, including Luli, explain each step. The flight lasts about two minutes, with optional drone footage, free return transport to your car, and a flight certificate.

“Really good fun! The place is in the middle of nowhere but we got a taxi and it was easy to find. The Zipline itself is really fun - very fast and great views, so we’re very glad we did it. And then the guys at the end helped us with booking a taxi back to Tirana afterwards :) Luli in particular was a sweetheart - he chatted with us after sorting the taxi, telling us about himself & the zipline itself, and being so sweet and lovely. A really great experience overall”

“Effettivamente non è proprio economico, considerando che la zipline dura giusti un paio di minuti. Vale comunque la pena l'esperienza; il paesaggio è favoloso. Attenzione alle temperature se scegliete di andare anche al castello: c'è una bella salita da fare e io ho sofferto i 42 gradi che c'erano nella giornata. Il taxi di ritorno era già pronto ad aspettarci per il rientro, non abbiamo avuto attese. L'organizzazione ha funzionato molto bene: eravamo in continuo contatto con la sede, che monitorata i nostri spostamenti. Le indicazioni sulla sicurezza menzionate nella descrizione non sono mai state fornite dal personale dello zipline, che si è limitato a far indossare l'imbracatura. Mi è…”
