Full description
Explore the hidden gems of northern Albania on a full-day guided boat tour from Vau i Dejës Lake. The journey begins with a one-hour boat cruise across the lake to Shurdhah Island — the site of the ancient Illyrian town of Sarda — where you'll walk through ruins that served as a vital cultural and trade center for centuries.
From there the tour continues to Pëllumbat Cave, known as the Cave of the Doves, where quiet natural beauty and unique rock formations await. The final destination is Gegaj — a remote mountain village nestled between the lake and the Albanian Alps — where you'll enjoy a traditional lunch at a local guesthouse made with fresh regional ingredients.
The afternoon offers time to relax by a private lakeshore and swim in the clear Albanian waters.
A full day of history, nature, culture, and hospitality in one of Albania's most unspoiled and rarely visited corners.
