Additional Information

Our seasoned tour guide will rendezvous with you early in the day at your hotel lobby in Tirana. The journey will be filled with the sight of towering mountains and lush scenery of the vicinity. We first halt at Thora pass (1700m), offering sweeping views of the Albanian Alps. The exploration begins with a visit to the local church and Lock tower to delve into the enigma of Northern Albania’s history, particularly the Laws of Lek Dukagjini.

A 1-hour trek from the hamlet, through thick woodland and along the refreshing Theth river, reveals the breathtaking Grunasi waterfall. Cascading from the lofty hills, water forms a 30-meter high spectacle. Those seeking an adventurous plunge can take a refreshing dip in the flowing water.

Post this rejuvenating rest, we trace our steps back to the village for a hearty local feast. Theth is renowned for its fresh livestock produce, allowing you to sample local organic cuisine.
As the day concludes, we travel back to your Tirana hotel.

*Optional: For an added thrill, a Zipline experience in Theth is also available.

Fantastic tour with a great guide - Gezim was an amazing tour guide! We were only two signed up for the tour which made this a intimate and a better experience. The sights along the way are amazing!! This is perfect if you only have a few days in Albania and want to see the alps! Tank you Gezim!

Great tour and beautiful views - I went on this tour by myself as my friends didn’t join me and it was such a memorable experience! My tour guide Elvis was great, he was very kind and was a great driver through the twisty roads. It was a small group with just two other people in the tour which made it very intimate and enjoyable. The hike itself wasn’t bad, a bit tricky at the end with the incline through the trees but I think it’s doable for most people. The views of the mountain were unreal! Elvis did a great job of answering any questions we had and was very knowledgeable about the terrain. It was also nice he helped me take some pictures since I was alone! Overall I would definitely book this tour again and felt super safe during the whole experience.

Great tour - We only got two people but they still managed to organise a tour for us! The guide Gezim was amazing and told us a lot of stuff about Albania. He also stopped at different spots for us to take nice pictures!!! The hike to the waterfall was wonderful and we just loved it. It could be a bit hard for some people but the guide is always to help. The whole trip was very relaxed and we had sufficient time to enjoy Theth! The driving from Tirana was around 4 hours but it was worthy!

Picturesque Theth village! - What a beautiful place! Although the road there is not fantastic all the way, once you get there, it’s just incredible! And the Grundas waterfall was really stunning! Right in the middle of the nature, surrounded by the snow capped mountains and the small village in the valley - ever so quaint! Also, there are a few Insta-opps on the way, which makes it all more exciting! Our guide, Taulant, knew the location well, had a good knowledge of the small village and was a good driver despite the below par road condition! I would highly recommend this tour, especially with children! My 9 and 12 year old didn’t want to leave the village! Ps the food at the village restaurant was nothing special though - don’t expect much!

Day trip from Tirana to Theth with beautiful views - A great day trip to Theth from Tirana. Good plan if you want to see the Albanian Alps but have limited time. A lot of the day is spent in the car but it’s worth it for the views. Our guide Visi was super flexible and let us decide where to stop for food, breaks, etc. Highly recommend!
