    I previously told you the driver/guide was a no show and after waiting 1/2 hours I had to contact him and only then was advised he cancelled. Please confirm my charges have been reversed on my credit card. I booked 2 excursions and both cancelled on me with your company. I am NOT a satisfied customer!

    Perfect trip to Blue Eye with BOOK KSAMIL

    I had a great time visiting the Blue Eye and Lekuresi Castle! The whole tour was very well organized and easy to follow. The Blue Eye was amazing, with very clear and cold water. It is a very special place and perfect for photos and relaxing in nature. After that, we went to Lekuresi Castle, where the view is just incredible. You can see the whole city and the sea from the top. The guide was friendly and explained everything in a simple way, which made the experience even better. I really enjoyed this tour and I recommend it to everyone who visits the area!

    Invigorating Tour Flled with the History of Albania Intermingled with the Beauty of Nature

    We had an amazing time visiting Lekuresit Castle and the Blue Eye. Our tour guide, Fatjon, was on-time, very personable and spoke great English. We started by visiting Lekuresit Castle. It was so interesting to learn about the history of the castle & the surrounding area while taking in the amazing view of the sea and valley below. From the castle, we took a scenic ride to the Blue Eye. Fatjon shared the history of the area along the way. He was very easy to talk to and was also a bit humorous at times, which we also enjoyed. The Blue Eye was a little crowded the day we arrived, but Fatjon did a wonderful job finding parking and then guiding us on a short walk from the parking lot to the Blue Eye. The Blue Eye was breathtakingly beautiful and crystal clear. He took a lot of pictures for us, which was very helpful. After seeing the eye up close, he guided us to an area where we could wade into the spring water. The water was ice cold, but felt invigorating. After wading in, we had some Coca-Colas overlooking the stream and enjoyed a great conversation with Fatjon. On the way back into Ksamil, he recommended a delightful restaurant with local cuisine and fresh mussels. It was delicious. Without reservation, we give this tour our highest recommendation! Thank you Fatjon!

    Blue Eye And Lekuresi Castle, 4-Hour Small Group Tour from Ksamil: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Saranda.

    How much does Blue Eye And Lekuresi Castle, 4-Hour Small Group Tour from Ksamil cost?

    +

    Prices start at $71 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Saranda usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Blue Eye And Lekuresi Castle, 4-Hour Small Group Tour from Ksamil take?

    +

    Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Saranda is not rushed.

    Is Blue Eye And Lekuresi Castle, 4-Hour Small Group Tour from Ksamil worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 60 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 15 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Saranda, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Blue Eye And Lekuresi Castle, 4-Hour Small Group Tour from Ksamil?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Blue Eye And Lekuresi Castle, 4-Hour Small Group Tour from Ksamil suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Blue Eye And Lekuresi Castle, 4-Hour Small Group Tour from Ksamil?

    +

    Around 5 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Saranda can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Saranda and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Blue Eye And Lekuresi Castle, 4-Hour Small Group Tour from Ksamil start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Saranda within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Saranda?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Saranda experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Sarandë: Small-Group Boat Tour with Swim Stops, Drinks & Parasols, Tour Gjirokaster,Blue Eye & Lekursi Castle, Saranda Boat Tour to Kakome,Hidden Cave and Beaches with Snorkell. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Saranda?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Saranda?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
