Great trip to Albania and neighboring countries.
We had 4 day trips with Aria travel. - Day trip to Bovilla lake and Dajti mountain cable car - Day trip to Montenegro - Day trip to Macedonia - Day trip to Kosovo All the trips were a great experience. We were given a private car and guide who was also the driver. We enjoyed our time the most. The views, the history, the food and restaurants the guide recommended were amazing. Our guide’s name was Gerti. Highly recommended. Very nice guy with lots of knowledge. Overall this company gave us all what we wanted and with reasonable prices. They even made us a discount. I would highly recommend them for day trips from Albania.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your nice review! We’re so happy to hear that you had such a great time on all four of your day trips with us. Gerti will be especially glad to hear your kind words! Thank you again for choosing Aria Travel Albania. We’d love to have you back for more adventures anytime! 😊

Great day trip to Bovilla Lake and Monte Dajti
We booked a day trip to to Bovilla Lake and Monte Dajti with Aria Travel. Our guide Endri was amazing - he is very acknowledged, friendly and passionate about his work. He shared with us many interesting insights about Albania- history, culture, nature. Additionally Endri is a great photographer! We couldn’t imagine a better guide and day spend surrounded by beautiful nature of Albania. Definitely we will come back! I truly recommend Aria Travel - the best experience! They were able to accommodate all our needs just an evening before trip and made our memories unforgettable:)

Hiking Bovilla Lake and Dajti Mountain Cable Car: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tirana.
How much does Hiking Bovilla Lake and Dajti Mountain Cable Car cost?
+
Prices start at $114 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Tirana usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Hiking Bovilla Lake and Dajti Mountain Cable Car take?
+
Plan for about 8 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 Tirana is not rushed.
Is Hiking Bovilla Lake and Dajti Mountain Cable Car worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 63 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 7 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Tirana, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Hiking Bovilla Lake and Dajti Mountain Cable Car?
+
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 Hiking Bovilla Lake and Dajti Mountain Cable Car suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Hiking Bovilla Lake and Dajti Mountain Cable Car?
+
Around 2 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 Tirana 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 Tirana and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Hiking Bovilla Lake and Dajti Mountain Cable Car 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 Tirana 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 Tirana?
+
On Outty we rank every Tirana experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Tirana Walking Tour: History, Culture & Hidden Local Gems, Tirana: Traditional Cooking Class with Unlimited Wine & Raki, From Tirana/Durres- Hiking Tour to Bovilla Lake & Gamti Mountain. 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 Tirana?
+
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 Tirana?
+
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.
What is included in Hiking Bovilla Lake and Dajti Mountain Cable Car?
+
Included: In-vehicle air conditioning; and Dajti Cable Car Round Trip Ticket. Not included: Snacks. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Hiking Bovilla Lake and Dajti Mountain Cable Car include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 53 listed pickup locations in and around Tirana. Be ready about 15 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is Hiking Bovilla Lake and Dajti Mountain Cable Car offered in?
+
It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Hiking Bovilla Lake and Dajti Mountain Cable Car?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
What happens to Hiking Bovilla Lake and Dajti Mountain Cable Car if the weather is bad?
+
