Ciao, sono Lorenc. Sono un guru di Berat e sono una persona divertente. Sono il tipo di persona che ama incontrare e parlare con persone provenienti da tutto il mondo per condividere la loro storia, filosofia e cultura, dal mio punto di vista. Ho gestito un ristorante in Italia e lavorato per molti anni nelle isole greche. Mi piace suonare e cantare nel mio tempo libero. Possiedo e lavoro in una casa che ha più di 400 anni. Sono nato e cresciuto qui, e attualmente risiedo qui.
Lorenc fue muy bien guía!! Fue un tour muy interesante, se ve que él sabe mucho de la historia del lugar! Nos mostró también su casa de 400 años, muy bonita! Aprendimos mucho con él y nos llevó a lugares a los que nunca habríamos llegado por nuestra cuenta ya que conoce a todo el mundo! Muy recomendado!!
The guide send me a cancellation note at the time the tour had to start and I was already at the meeting point.
WARNING to everyone! This is was unfortunately a painful experience in the beautiful city of Berat. I joined the tour with my friend, both of us from Egypt, only to experience a slew of aggressive/racist comments. Lorenzo really feels the need to share his ideologies, and every single position he has be it political, religious, or "philosophical", which was tiring and completely unnecessary. Literally in the middle of the tour he felt the need to comment on African migrants that should go back to their home countries and make a place for themselves there, right in front of us. He also kept needlessly being touchy with my friend, for some reason he thought that was okay, but with the italian ladies that were on the tour he did not come near them. I feel very upset this happened to us, to the people at Guruwalk, I want to say this tour is spreading hate, aggression, and pain rather than compassion, knowledge, and the wonder it is supposed to spread.
Tour prenotato da settimane. Il giorno previsto ci presentiamo con il corretto anticipo al luogo di incontro, aspettiamo ed aspettiamo, contattiamo inutilmente il guru ma alla fine non si presenta e non ci risponde. Pessima esperienza.
More of an unstructured stream of consciousness than a guided walking tour. Lorenc has lived in Berat his whole life and seems knowledgeable but is unable to transfer this in an intelligible or interactive way. He knows everyone in town, telling long animated, ultimately inconsequential back stories interwoven with some history so by the end you are not sure if he is talking about a neighbour or King Zog. Unfortunately, alongside talk of one nation Albania there is also a smiling ridicule of Muslims, immigration, country people. The only walking tour I have done when the group of strangers needed a debrief as soon as the guide had left. Quite an experience but not one I would want to repeat or recommend.
