It was a great tour with Irvin, he had no problem with giving a tour just for the 2 of us, which only enriched this experience, as we had a private guided tour around Gjirokaster. Irvin showed us all of the historic center of the city, explained a lot about the heritage, local identity, the culture of Albania and its people 🇦🇱 he is very friendly, easy-going, funny with his jokes and has a great knowledge that he is eager to share 🥰 we asked many questions and he always answered in a broad and interesting way. At the end of the tour he shared a written summary that he prepared himself, that also included wider explanation and some tips on where to eat and what to see in Albania ☺️ I recommend higly this experience to everyone!!!

Irvin was an absolutely fantastic guide for my walking tour in Gjirokastër. I ended up being the only one on the tour, and he went above and beyond to tailor the experience to my interests, which made it feel really personal and special. His knowledge of the city’s history and culture was impressive, but what made it truly memorable was his great sense of humor and easy banter — it felt more like exploring with a knowledgeable friend than being on a formal tour. I had such an amazing time wandering through the old streets, learning stories I never would have discovered on my own, and getting local insights along the way. Thank you, Irvin, for such a wonderful experience — and my apologies for the delayed review. If you’re visiting Gjirokastër, I highly recommend booking a tour with him!

We were very happy with Klarens' brother. He knew a lot and could communicate in perfect English.

Irvin fue un excelente guía, es un pozo de conocimiento y lo transmite con pasión y un toque de humor.

Irvin was very passionate, knowledgeable and very engaging with his audience throughout the session. He went above and beyond to ensure his message was recieved by all his audience by ensuring he used his language skills to translate information in their native language. He ensured he used jokes and personable examples from individuals backgrounds to engage with all us in the area of discussion in his tour. He's clearly extremely knowledgeable in topics around Albanian and wider world history. Probably one of the best tours I've been in. Wish I could give him more than 5 ⭐

Irvin was a fantastic guide! After his tour, I now have a much deeper understanding of Albanias past and present, the people, language and culture. The tour was very detailed and Irvin took me to some cool places that I might have not come across myself. He was always considerate, gave me as much time as I needed and suggested plenty other things to do during my time in Albania. Thank you, Irvin!

Your tour of Gjirokastër was fantastic—both engaging and highly informative. Our guide, Irwin, was incredibly knowledgeable and shared great insights along with personal experiences that brought the city’s history to life. He guided us through the entire city, making every stop interesting and meaningful, and the tour concluded beautifully at Gjirokastër Castle. The personalized local dessert tasting at the end was a wonderful touch and a perfect way to wrap up the experience. Thank you for the amazing hospitality—it made the visit truly memorable! 🍰🏰✨

Tuvimos muchísima suerte porque estábamos sólo dos personas e Irvin hizo el tour en español para nosotras. A pesar de lo que diga, su dominio del idioma es muy bueno. Fue una maravillosa inmersión en la cultura y costumbres del país y la ciudad. No os lo perdáis.

It was so great to meet Irvin and have him lead us around his city. We got a real picture of the city, its history, people, and culture. He was also really helpful in answering questions and providing recommendations etc. If your in Gjirokaster, book with him!

Irvin was a lovely guide, we came on a very cold day and were the only couple on the tour, nevertheless Irvin still gave us the full experience. We walked all across the old city with non stop interesting and knowledgeable commentary from Irvin. He answered all our questions and gave us great recommendations to continue our journey of discovering gjirokaster and the serounding area. Thank you Irvin. Definitely recommend.

Our guide was so knowledgeable and extremely friendly. He answered all our questions and showed us everything and in a very nice mood even though it was raining. Thank you so much!!! 🙏🏼

Klarens was unable to meet us with another guide due to a schedule conflict, but he arranged for us to meet Irv and our tour was wonderful! We learned much about the old bazaar, the castle, and general history of Gjirokaster. 10/10 would recommend.

Magnífico tour. Además los dos únicos porque la época no ha sido de mucho turismo. Pero Irvin ha hecho un tour amplisimo y con gran cantidad de información. Además en español, pues aunque pone inglés, ha hecho el esfuerzo dado que está aprendiendo y ya lo domina muy bien

El tour fue muy interante, Irvin nos dio un recorrido de la historia de esta ciudad y datos importantes y hasta curiosos sobre como acontecieron ciertos eventos interesantes, es muy elocuente y tiene una forma muy peculiar de captar la atencion del oyente. Me encantó, es super recomendado el tour!

Irvin was an absolute delight! He is so knowledgeable about Gjirokaster and took us to all the gems as well as places off the beaten track. He was very flexible and gave us extra time at places when we wanted. He also gave us fantastic recommendations for food, other places to visit and other things to do. His sense of humour was also great fun!

We loved this!! We still laugh about Cookie the dog joining us, dancing with the uni students and just having a fantastic tour. Delivery was fun and interesting. Great tour!

Irvin is a very knowledgeable and helpful guide and we enjoyed our tour with him.

Irvin was extremely knowledgeable and loves his job. He showed up anyway when it was only us two who booked his tour! What a fantastic way to spend 2 hours with someone who loves his city. Thank you, Irvin, and we hope to cross paths again.

Fantastic tour by Irvin. He provided fantastic insights into the history of Gjirokaster and was great at providing unique insights into Albania history and culture. He is highly knowledgeable and friendly. I highly recommend doing your tour with him!

We had a great time with Irvin. He was great at adjusting to the group in terms of interests and vibe. Extremely knowledgeable as well. We're not always easy to please but Irvin hit the spot!

Irvin was able to adjust the content of the tour based on our interests and answered every question with a lot of interesting information. Great stories and a genuinly friendly person. 100% recommend!

Irvin is a gem! Couldn't have ask for a better guide for our walking tour in Gjirokastër. He is very personable, knowledgeable and entertaining. I really appreciate that he shares little known facts and details during the tour and it is really enjoyable chatting with Irvin on other aspects on how Albania is changing and evolving. Highly recommend that you book a tour with Irvin!

This was a fascinating tour. Without Irvins guidance we would have missed many of the most interesting houses and areas of the city. He was very knowledgable and his stories gave us a much woder view of Albania than just a tour of his home town. Excellent guide.
