I had a beautiful experience hiking the High Peaks of the Balkans with Zbulo. There were wonderful accommodations with hot showers (what a pleasant surprise) and the variety and quantity of food and generosity and warmth of the hosts left me feeling very welcome and warm. Our guides were super - attentive and also intellectual in sharing the culture/history of the Balkans. I'm in awe at the beauty of the Balkans, the warm hospitality I experienced and the stories I heard about the Balkans have left me wanting more5

This was the most sensational hike. Nedih was the perfect guide, the trail offered the most inspiring views and the hosts along the way were so warm, welcoming and provided delicious and plentiful local food.5

The guides Leart and Donjeta were amazing. The communication from the tour company Zbulo was excellent to ensure information was completed and accurate before the tour started.. The tour itself is fantastic and worth the experience!

We had two fantastic guides in Nedih and Elena. Both were fun, knowledgeable, organised, engaging and super helpful to all members of the group. I couldn’t be happier with our guides.
