Na het ontbijt verkennen we het prachtige schiereiland Karaburun per speedboot, waaronder het Karaburun-Sazan National Marine Park. Dit is het enige reservaat in zijn soort in het land en er wordt nog weinig begrepen over de biodiversiteit van het park; Bezoek de mysterieuze grot in Haxhi Aliu, die millennia lang door handelaren en smokkelaars wordt gebruikt en nu een nationaal monument. Snorkel in een afgelegen baai, zonnebaad op een ongerept strand en eet daarna een picknicklunch op het zand. Na de lunch beginnen we rechtstreeks naar Himara. Accommodatie in het pension van Himara.

- Na het ontbijt verkennen we langs de zuidkust van Albanië, Himarë en Saranda, het kleine strand van Porto Palermo is zeker een van de favoriete bestemmingen voor toeristen. Slechts een uur van de stad Saranda is de kleur van de zee van deze baai gewoon ongelooflijk. Perfect om te zwemmen, kajakken, stand-up paddle of snorkelen. Zo helder, kristalhelder en blauw dat het echt onwerkelijk lijkt. Het contrasteert sterk met de door de zon verbrande kustlijn, waardoor een absoluut spectaculair uitzicht ontstaat. Voorbereiden op peddelen in de baai van Porto Palermo en ongeveer 3 uur kajakken. Lokale vislunch in een traditioneel restaurant. Bezoek het kasteel van Porto Palermo, ook wel bekend als het kasteel van Ali Pasha, werd waarschijnlijk gebouwd door de Venetianen toen ze het gebied regeerden. Het verbindt met het vasteland door een smalle strook land en diende vroeger als Sovjet-onderzeese basis.

Saranda
Saranda
De hete zon verwelkomt je in het kristalheldere water van de rivier de Bistrica. Je gaat terug in de tijd, want de kruipende bomen, struiken, blauw water en zon zijn alles wat je rondom ziet. NEE, je bent niet in de jungle, noch in de Amazone, maar in de rivier van Bistrica. Slechts vijf kilometer van Saranda, daar is het, uw poort naar een ervaring die zo rustig maar nog steeds wild en uitdagend is door te raften. Een tour van een halve dag zal je loskoppelen van de mensen, autogeluiden en de hitte van de stad, in ruil daarvoor krijg je pure adrenaline. De natuur, de weelderige wildernis, de struiken die met je worstelen en het ijskoude water zullen je uitdagen om een uitweg te bedenken.
De lunch is in de stad Gjirokastra. Na de lunch bezoeken we het kasteel van Gjirokastra. Kasteel Gjirokastër (Albanees: Kalaja e Gjirokastrës of Kalaja e Argjirosë) is een fort in Gjirokastër, Albanië (tijdens de Ottomaanse overheersing was het historisch bekend als Ergiri, terwijl lokale Grieken het Argyrokastro noemden, een naam die ook op het kasteel werd toegepast). Kasteel Gjirokastër ligt op een hoogte van 336 meter
.Het kasteel domineert de stad en kijkt uit over de strategisch belangrijke route langs de riviervallei. Het is open voor bezoekers en bevat een militair museum met gevangen artillerie en memorabilia van het communistische verzet tegen de Duitse bezetting, evenals een gevangen genomen vliegtuig van de Amerikaanse luchtmacht ter herdenking van de strijd van het communistische regime tegen de imperialistische westerse mogendheden.

Bereid je voor op golven tot vier voet en smalle doorgangen die de boot laten slingeren en water over de zijkanten laten stromen. De hele 270 km lange baan van de Vjosa-rivier is wild en ongetemd en versierd met prachtige canyons, gevlochten riviersecties, eilanden en ossenbogen.
Na het raften gaan we lokaal lunchen. Permet is een stad die bekend staat om vele toeristische attracties, en de thermale bronnen die zeer genezend zijn en worden aanbevolen door artsen.
Deze thermale bronnen bevinden zich aan de oevers van de Langarica Canyon, die elk jaar honderden toeristen van over de hele wereld trekt.
De Langarica canyon ligt op ongeveer 200 meter afstand van de thermale bronnen en heeft een hoogte variërend van 30 meter tot 150 meter. Door de rotsen van de indrukwekkende kloof steekt de Langarica rivier over, bij de lokale bevolking bekend als „de gezegende rivier”. De Langarica-kloof wordt omgeven door de bossen en bergen van Dangelli en Shqeri en sluit verder aan op de rivier de Vjosa. Het natuurlijke panorama langs de Langarica-kloof is prachtig en onaangetast door de menselijke hand. Het verandert door de seizoenen heen en geeft een kleurrijk en expressief landschap van de natuur in dit gebied. In de kloof zijn er veel grotten, een verscheidenheid aan bomen en aromatische struiken, en thermale bronnen gevormd door zwavelwater dat uit de grotten stroomt.
