点评:My husband and I originally booked this tour for the fall of 2020. That obviously didn't happen but this year we invited our biking friends and 8 of us from Vermont (all in our 70’s) joined the UNESCO tour with 7 others, our guide, Dimitri, our driver/mechanic/support person, Visi and our "guide in training' Mateo. The tour was fantastic; the scenery was beautiful, the hotels were good, the food was delicious. At the price it was a fantastic value. It was hot and sunny in mid September and there was lots of climbing but we had all opted for e-bikes and Visi switched out batteries at lunch time for those who were heavy users. Dimitri is a wonderful guide; his depth of knowledge about the history and culture of Albania is impressive, and he is really fun to be with. There were only two minor drawbacks: they don’t have an easy wire transfer or US office to make the payment and the e-bikes, which were new and in excellent condition had a more forward leaning/mountain bike type riding position that was not comfortable for many of us. We've done many tours, mostly self-guided -- the Loire Valley, Paris to London, Umbria, Puglia, Sicily, Portugal, Slovakia-Hungary, Croatia and Crete. And although they’ve all been fun, this tour was exceptional. Just do it!
翻译:我和我丈夫最初预订了 2020 年秋季的这次旅行。这显然没有发生,但今年我们邀请了骑自行车的朋友和我们来自佛蒙特州的 8 个人(都 70 多岁)和另外 7 人一起参加了联合国教科文组织之旅,我们的导游,Dimitri,我们的司机/机械师/支持人员,Visi 和我们的“培训指南”Mateo。这次旅行太棒了;风景很美,酒店很好,食物很美味。以这个价格来说,这是一个很棒的价值。九月中旬天气炎热,阳光明媚,有很多攀爬活动,但我们都选择了电动自行车,Visi 在午餐时间为那些重度使用者更换了电池。Dimitri 是一位出色的导游;他对自行车的了解很深阿尔巴尼亚的历史和文化令人印象深刻,和他在一起真的很有趣。只有两个小缺点:他们没有方便的电汇或美国办事处来付款,以及电动自行车,这是新的和状况良好,具有更前倾/山地自行车类型的骑行位置,这对我们许多人来说并不舒服。我们已经完成了很多旅行,大部分都是自助游——卢瓦尔河谷、巴黎到伦敦、翁布里亚、普利亚、西西里岛、葡萄牙、斯洛伐克-匈牙利、克罗地亚和克里特岛。尽管他们都很有趣,但这次旅行还是很特别的。去做就对了!
