The river level did not allow us to do the activity, yet they still made us pay the full price.
Response from the operator · AlbaniaRafting
Dear Sara!Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are sorry to hear that the experience did not meet your expectations.
We would like to clarify that the activity description clearly explains that, depending on the water level and seasonal conditions, the activity may change. When the water level is too low for rafting, we organize River Tubing in the Osumi Canyon instead.
River conditions are natural and can change throughout the season, and for safety reasons we cannot operate rafting when the water level is not suitable. During the summer months, River Tubing is one of the main ways to explore the spectacular Osumi Canyon, and we are proud to have received many wonderful comments from guests who have enjoyed this experience.
We understand, however, that if you were expecting a different type of adventure, the change may have been disappointing. We always encourage guests to carefully read the activity description and contact us before the tour if anything is unclear.
Thank you again for your feedback. We appreciate it and will continue working to make the information about seasonal river conditions and the different activities as clear as possible.
Warm regards,
Albania Rafting Group

River tubing recommended in Osumi Canyon

With our family (2 daughters aged 13 and 11) via Albania rafting group the river tubing in Osumi canyon done. Our supervisors Nathalia and Rafael were very clear in their explanation. Thanks to them we had a sporting day.
We made a wonderful tour on the tubes through an impressive canyon. The day ended with a more than delicious lunch at a roadside diner. Recommended!
