The half-day Peja and Rugova tour was terrific. Our guide, Esat, led us on a short walking tour of Peja, then drove us to see a fabulous old monastery and through the mountains to a beautiful canyon. Then, Esat led us on a short hike to see a gorgeous waterfall and a large colorful cave. Every stop was great. Don’t miss this one.

Myself and two of my friends joined the Rugova Valley tour with Top Balkan Tours, and it turned out to be an absolutely amazing day from start to finish.

The tour begins with a walk around Peja, where you get the chance to explore the Old Bazaar and the Ethnographic Museum. If you are lucky, the gentleman working there may share stories from the time he served in the army — listening to his experiences was truly fascinating and unforgettable.

Our next stop was the beautiful Patriarchate of Peć, a stunning medieval monastery complex dating back to the 13th century and now recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

After that, we visited the breathtaking White Drin Waterfall and explored the two-million-year-old Radac Cave, also known as the “Sleeping Beauty Cave.” Both places were absolutely spectacular.

The highlight of the day was saved for the end — an exciting hike through Rugova Canyon. The views were simply incredible, and we even got to experience a small-scale Via Ferrata adventure, which made it even more fun and memorable.

Our guide, Ettas (I hope I spelled your name correctly!), was fantastic throughout the entire tour. He was incredibly helpful, answered all of our sometimes difficult questions with patience, and shared lots of useful information and great tips for the rest of our trip around Kosovo.

Overall, it was a truly fantastic experience and one of the highlights of our visit. Thank you, Top Balkan Tours, for such a memorable day — I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Kosovo!

We had a tour together with our guide Esat. He was a nice guy and gave us information about the culture in Peja/Kosovo. We had a very nice tour in his very nice car ;). He gave us local food for lunch as a snack, which was very delicious. I can recommend the tour. You will see Peja, Monastery of Peja, Rugova Canyon, White Drin Waterfall and the radaci cave. On every day except Sundays you will visit a museum too.

Visar was a truly amazing host. A very kind considerate host with an excellent knowledge of the area as he went to school and is a real local. Each part of the tour was exceptional. The water fall, mountains and caves were all unique experiences and it was nice to start off with a tour of the town.
If you visit Peja you must do this tour and I guarantee it will be the highlight of the trip to Peja
