A must see trip in Beirat - It was a fantastic day visiting the canyon and the waterfall!! Our guide Soni was super nice and knowledgeable of Albania culture and history and gave us a super interesting lesson!! And both guides were super nice to our family (and the others as well).
The waterfall is super beautiful and most people were bathing in spite of the ice cold water (4-7oC!!)
We made several stops that were quite interesting through the way and we finally arrived at the canyon which was not only beautiful but super fun to play. We didn’t swim till the end since we visited with our 6 months old son and 5 year old daughter, but we enjoyed swimming at the river a lot!
Super recommend, fun with kids! And adults as well!!

Excellent experience in nature and culture - Our tour of Osum Canyon and Boogie Waterfall was perfect. We got a good feel of some of the nature in the region, and our tour guide did an exceptional job bringing an understanding of Albanian culture and society to the tour. I couldn't recommend this trip more to people who are looking for an accessible way to learn and experience a lot in a day.

A MUST if you stay in Berat! - We really enjoyed the tour, specially because of the extremely hot weather this days.
Bogove Waterfall has really cold water but it worth to jump and enjoy the place.
Then we visited a couple of nice viewpoints and had lunch in one of them.
Osum canyon exploration was a blast, you could have a swim, enjoy the canyon from the inside and jump to the water from some spots.
I would recommend this activity for anybody who likes to learn about culture and enjoy water places.
The tour wouldn't be so great without Soni, our guide, we learned lots of things from albanian culture with him and you could feel he really enjoy what he do.
Thanks Soni! And thanks our driver Arti too!
