Some buses run at the wrong time. Gjirafa can fix this. One card per line — tap it to read what riders said.

Fixable lines come first. 4 of these 12 have a real time from a rider, so we can fix them now. The rest need the operator's answer. We trust the userfeedbacks report over a memory — it comes from a real trip. Reviews rank first, then both-source lines, then feedback-only ones. An operator with nothing bookable anywhere always ranks last.

How big is it? Each card compares riders who reported the problem to people who viewed that route's page. Reports are all-time; views cover the last 30 days — the two cover different windows, so read the percent as a size, never as a rate. It does not order this list.

How big is it? Complaints — reviews plus userfeedbacks, pooled — against passengers who bought a seat, all-time. This is not a complaint rate: it sizes the problem, it does not rank this list. A line nobody can book shows not reservable rather than disappearing.

  • reviewsThey took us with the bus at 11am, they knew ticket is for 11.30 an tried to charge us. We didnt payd and said it was their choice to take us on the ride. Very shady.
  • reviews"Having arrived at the Tirana North-South Terminal with plenty of notice, we found that the bus scheduled for 5:30 PM had already left at around 5:00 PM, and no other bus was scheduled. Therefore, I request a refund for both tickets."

  • reviewsThe arrival hour mentioned on the website should take into account every stop potentially made by the driver. It's not normal to arrive at 3:30 pm when the initial arrival time on the website was 2:30 pm. When there is an accident or traffic I understand, but if the ride itself takes this much time then it should be mentioned before buying tickets just to give people a proper idea please, some of us had flights to catch
  • reviewsI almost missed my flight because we arrived at 3:50pm instead of 2:30pm - almost 1h and a half late, with no explanation. There was almost no traffic so that’s not the reason. The driver took a 20min break, I don’t know if it was planned or not. Also he was listening to loud music and wasted time talking to friends at some of the stops. It was very stressful.

  • userfeedbacksI can't book the bus, what should I do?

49 of the userfeedbacks reports above carry no schedule tag at all — riders filed them under something else and described the problem in writing. An AI read of all 147 written messages recovered them; without that pass they would be invisible.

2What riders flag as schedule problems feedback · high recall

Structured thumbs-down reason tags from post-trip feedback. 3,801 flags name a schedule problem; 2,924 are the hard subset — the service did not run as published. Every count below is a distinct complaint, not a raw tap — the same rider re-submitting within a few minutes counts once.

Hover, tap or focus a slice — or its label below the chart — to read what is behind it: the routes carrying it, the operators named on them, and who to call.

3,686reports

Both lists are ranked by complaint count. u marks a route with no bookable page on the site, or an operator with no bookable ticket price anywhere — press the button to rank what a rider can actually book first. The six shown and the full list behind each fold are re-ranked separately, so nothing crosses between them.

3Hidden complaints the tags miss LLM screen · reviews + feedback

The tags mark only 352 of these as schedule-related, but an AI read of all 4,470 pieces of rider text finds 1,199. Schedule problems are about 3.4× more common than the tagged dashboard shows.

Both free-text sources, counted together. Reviews: 4,323 comments read, 1,138 schedule-related, 798 never tagged with the schedule category. Post-trip feedback: 147 written messages read, 61 schedule-related, 49 carrying no schedule reason tag at all. Merged because the defect is identical — a schedule complaint the labels did not count.

Action: treat schedule accuracy as a top platform issue — the tag-based view understates it about 3.4×. Most common failure: Ran late. (AI-screened leads; spot-check before quoting an exact figure.)

How we got here · data lineage

Every finding traces to booking-database tables. One figure does not, and it is labelled wherever it appears: the page-view half of each card's reports-vs-views box is counted in Bisko, the site's own analytics, over the last 30 days — it sizes a finding and raises none. The AI reads free-text comments and writes the one sentence at the top of each card; plain SQL and code do all the counting, and nothing the AI writes is counted, ranked or turned into a finding.

The feedback rows are scored on a corpus of 147 typed message(s) against the rider's own tag, which riders pick loosely — so they carry intervals rather than point estimates, and nothing in CI gates them. service: too few tagged rows to read at all, shown as — rather than as a number.

Micro pools every category decision, so the common categories carry it. Counting each category equally — over only those the review text can support — macro-F1 is 0.59.

Category row: bus reviews only; 4,019 scored reviews · held-out test slice of 806 reviews. Sentiment row: the negative class over the whole scored corpus.

306 review(s) the classifier declined to answer are excluded from these figures and counted here rather than hidden — an opt-out flatters any score that buries it.

Not measured: service_issues.extract_one (issue enums); schedule_mismatch posted/actual time extraction; schedule_mismatch's actual-departure-time extraction from feedback text; the REVIEW free-text screens (a review carries no Reasons tag to score against); every prose/summary pass. Those passes have no ground truth in this repo, so no accuracy figure on this page describes them.

1Biggest, most fixable problems severity × riders · all 246 line finding(s)

Each card is one line, one problem you can fix. Ranked by how fixable it is, not how bad the trip felt: a rejected ticket outranks a rude driver we can only report. Reviews and feedback tags keep separate counts, never summed. The only figure on a card that pools them is the reports-vs-views box described below, where a headcount is being sized against a headcount. Riders' own words sit behind the button.

Every line you can book comes before every line you cannot, always. An unbookable route shows not reservable. Within that group, a selling-nothing operator ranks last. Then: reviews first, both sources next, feedback alone last — severity breaks ties.

How big is it? Each card compares riders who reported the problem to people who viewed that route's page. Reports are all-time; views cover the last 30 days — the two cover different windows, so read the percent as a size, never as a rate. It does not order this list. 1 of these finding(s) carry no box: we have no page-view data for that route.

How big is it? Complaints — reviews plus userfeedbacks, pooled — against passengers who bought a seat, all-time. This is not a complaint rate: it sizes the problem, it does not rank this list. A line nobody can book shows not reservable rather than disappearing. 1 of these finding(s) carry no box — no sales or booking data.

Problems spanning several lines with none reaching the bar alone aren't here — no single line or departure to name. All 88 are in section 2, with the operators.

  • reviews1★reported thisTerrible terrible experience. They filled all the seats in the bus so got us a mini bus with terrible conditions. It was tiny and there was not enough space for everyone! There was a lady seated on the floor!! On a 4h trip! That is not normal.2024-09-12
  • reviews1★reported thisBuses overwhelm every time, people compelled sitting in aisle of a bus. Be care of it. Change you e-ticket to real at cashier as soon as possible2024-09-14
  • reviews1★reported thisToo many people trying to be stuffed onto a bus with already cramped seating. 1 girl had to sit in the aisle bc the ticketing office couldn’t keep the seating straight. Overall, it was a very claustrophobic journey back to Tiranë from Sarandë2025-07-14
  • reviews1★reported thisTerrible. You sold the same bus tickets we had bought days before, to other customers in the last half hour before departure . We arrived before few minutes before departure of the bus, but our seats were just re-sold. So we were obliged to travel with the next bus two hours after.. it causing great problems to us.2025-07-14

  • reviews1★reported thisThe worst service of my life! No air conditioning, I had to share the seat with another person for 5 hours2025-07-24
  • reviews1★reported thisThe bus was overbooked. So instead of going 10:45, we went 11:45. And we didn’t even get picked up in a bus. It was a mini van. There wasn’t room for all of us again. So some people had to wait even longer for the next bus even though they had a ticket for 10:45. The condition of the minivan was atrocious. Really bad The booking on gjirafa website was nice and easy The rest. Really bad2025-08-04
  • reviews1★reported thisBad experience. Despite having bought my ticket online and going to the agency to pick up my ticket, the driver asked me to sit on the floor because more tickets had been sold by the time I was leaving. I had to insist to keep a seat.2025-08-09
  • reviews1★reported thisBooking process was simple enough, although the travel was so bad. Bus was overbooked, so the bus company provided 2 extra buses - great, but because of that we didn’t leave until nearly 1,5hours later that we meant to. Nobody once was apologetic and bothered that we have a flight to catch. We literally just made it to the airport, were late for a transfer bus and ended up paying extra for a new one (even that we had one booked via gijrafa). Buses in both directions were very uncomfortable and no leg space whatsoever. So thinking that if you leave Saranda at 10:45 to catch the flight in Tirana at 8pm, which gives over 9 hours, was completely wrong.2025-08-16

  • reviews1★reported thisBus was overbooked despite us purchasing tickets the day before online and getting the paper tickets 1 hour before the departure time. We were 29-30 seats but some people were already on the bus coming from Ksamil. They had been given the same seats. There was no seat for my companion. The driver aggressively shouted at people, including us. Finally one woman had enough and left which opened up the seat for my companion. This experience tarnished my view of Albania and I decided I will recommend private transfers to everyone. Absolutely astonishing experience.2025-09-21
  • reviews1★reported thisWe booked our bus tickets from saranda to tirana. Payed a bit of extra to get guaranted seats. What we didnt kmow ie the man checking in picks the seats for you fhere and then ! We fot 51, and 53! Not even together ! Right at back squashed in like sardines ! And air con !? Dont memtion that. Woret coach journey ever experienced absolute chaos .2025-09-22
  • reviews1★reported thisWe were given seat numbers that didn’t exist, separated, one person squeezed in at the back one person on at the very front with extra passengers standing for four and a half hours2025-10-14
  • reviews1★reported thisThe buses didn’t have any functional air conditioning. Me and my wife had to struggle a lot. And the bus from Sarande to Tirana was overbooked and people were literally standing all the way. We didn’t even get proper seats. Never ever getting on a bus from Sarande to Tirana. Horrible experience and poor management with below average customer service.2026-05-25
  • reviews1★reported thisThe staffs are so unfriendly and rude. One of the guy is actually racist. The bus had an air con’s issue we had to stop at the service station for 1.5 hours. Also I booked my ticket online for few days ago but the people just turned up who had a front seat then my seat was far end. Worst experience.2026-06-04
  • reviews1★reported thisPessimo! Ordini e paghi online, poi arrivi alla partenza prima dell’orario riservato e scopri che non ci sono posti sul pullman! Ti lasciano a piedi!2026-06-14
  • reviews1★reported thisI am a person who travels a lot. Different cities, different countries, different cultures. But I have never felt as insecure traveling as I did with this company. The driver was speeding for long stretches of the route, exceding the limits (I recorded qith Google Maps to control the speed of it, so it wasn'tjust a felling). On our trip, there was an over-sale of tickets, forcing people to travel standing or sitting on the floor for long hours, on routes full of curves, ups and downs. It seems to me to be the worst service that has ever existed, without naming that the law has been broke in different aspects.2026-06-20
  • reviews1★reported thisThe staff were extremely rude. We arrived 30 minutes before departure, but they shouted at us, claiming we were late. Despite already having valid online tickets, they insisted that we had to collect paper tickets from another booth. Instead of simply accepting our tickets, they took a photo of them and sent it to someone on WhatsApp. When the bus arrived, there were not enough seats for all passengers. I had to argue with the driver, who did not speak English, just to be allowed onto the bus. Even after boarding, we were forced to stand for almost five hours because there were no available seats. This experience was completely unacceptable. I expect a full refund and that a formal complaint be made to the bus company. I would not recommend this service to anyone.2026-07-13
  • reviews1★reported thisThe buses were full and even though the buses were there, we were not allowed in. We had to wait for the next bus, which was 3 hours later.2026-07-26

The bus was in a bad condition. It stopped so many times and we booked Direct. The air condition was really bad.2026-08-09
  • reviews1★reported thisThey sold out the bus for people who came with cash, let us wait 45 min even though we were already at the counter just to tell us that the bus is full. And we were more than 30 min before departure there!2026-08-18
  • reviews1★reported thisVery stressful and confusing experience overall with the bus we booked go Tirana from Sarande. In the email Girafa confirmed to first go to the agency of the bus company but on Google maps the agency is in a different location than the actual bud terminal where they later sent us to check in. We booked two tickets together but didn't get seats next to each other despite checking in almost one hour early. The staff and driver were rude and aggressive. Will not book this again2026-08-19
  • reviews1★reported thisNo ac and we got no real seats beacuse they booked to many people2026-08-24
  • reviews2★reported thisThere is no answer when assistance is needed. Got thrown out of the bus eventhough we had booked online. They gave our places to some local who bought tickets on the station prior departure. This was for the bus Saranda-Tirana. No help from the agency in Saranda. Sent email to gjirafa travel but no responsen.2024-09-09
  • reviews2★reported thisYou need to update the instructions in your email & webpage regarding how you need to change the e-ticket to actual bus ticket in the station. Write it clearly, in all communication!! Ask the drivers even but a note on the bus store, so people realize they need to go to the office and change the tickets. In our bus, there were total chaos as people did not know this, seat numbers were all over the place and there was also 6 people overbooked to the trip which meant these people sat on the floor for 4,5 hours from Sarande to Tirana. Above this, staff memeber yelling to these poor travellers, even eventually they had done all what was asked but seats were double sold. With very small changes, much can be done!!!2024-09-17
  • reviews2★reported thisThe ride was direct and smooth and the driver was good at driving; however, there were a number of things that made it an unpleasant experience. 1) The driver smoked frequently throughout the drive. In an enclosed space with no windows, quite bothersome. 2) Assigned seats is fine, but was not clear on website. We -- including my 88 year old mother -- were stuck, crowded 4 across in the back. 3) The bus was overcrowded. People were sitting on crates in the aisle. 4) This left the bus very hot, despite it being comfortable outside. The air vents above we're almost never on and the driver frequently turned on the heat... Leaving the back of the bus painfully warm. We all ended up rather ill by the end of the trip.2025-03-18
  • reviews2★reported thisI have one tip for you, DONT sell tickets online with garanteed Seats on the bus and then the bus is full!2025-07-17
  • reviews2★reported thisMy nephew ended up sitting in the ground because the bus 2 was overbooked. The driver didn’t check people’s tickets and there were two people (one being my nephew) sitting on the floor for 5 hours. That’s really not acceptable. We all paid for a ticket. He should’ve checked the tickets and the seat numbers.2026-06-28
  • reviews2★reported thisOur family enjoyed visiting Albania, but our experience with this bus service was disappointing. When I booked our trip from Tirana to Sarandë, I accidentally purchased one extra round-trip ticket because my daughter had already purchased her own ticket separately. I realized the mistake immediately and tried several times to contact customer support by message, email, and phone to cancel the extra ticket, but I was never able to reach anyone or receive assistance. The outbound trip went smoothly. We received QR codes, and the boarding process was simple. Unfortunately, the return trip was completely different. We did not receive QR codes for the return, and we were unaware that check-in had to be completed at least 30 minutes before departure. The process was not as clear as it had been for the outbound trip. As a result, my two children and I, including myself as a disabled traveler, were unable to use the seats we had purchased. We spent much of the five-hour journey standing or sitting on the floor, which was very difficult and not what we expected after purchasing our tickets in advance. I hope the company improves its customer support and makes the check-in process more consistent and clearly communicated between outbound and return trips. I also hope they will consider refunding the extra ticket I tried to cancel and providing appropriate compensation for the return trip. Despite this experience, we truly enjoyed our visit to Albania and hope future travelers have a smoother experience.2026-06-30
  • reviews3★reported thisGuaranteed seat is completely misleading. The bus company couldn’t care less. They told me that there is only 2 seats left, and I had to wait 1,5h for the next bus. Digitalization is an alien term for the Albanian transportation.2025-08-18
  • reviews3★reported thisIt is disappointing to see they STILL fill the buses over the capacity and that the safety still isn’t good enough. I was moved from my seat to the seat next to the driver, which is ok, but the seatbelt didn’t work, and it would have felt a bit safer sitting upfront with a belt on, as the traffic-culture is rather ‘heated’ 😬😂 Aircontitioning could definetly be better, but hey- at least this this there was one ;)2026-07-07

  • reviews1★One huge disaster and total chaos. It's the 21st century and the offices in Sarandë don't have computers and smooth passenger check-in. Instead, they write out tickets by hand. As in ancient times.2024-09-28

  • reviews1★Very small bus, it was too tight, we took the bus from Tirana to Saranda and back, both buses were very slow and sounded like they were faulty.2024-10-06
  • reviews1★We booked a ticket for a train from Sarande to Tirana airport and they offered two buses with a transfer in between (they said the transfer was a 22 minute drive and that’s it, no other information about the transfer from one bus to another). We would have been better off getting the one bus and then a taxi ourselves rather than getting the first bus, taking a taxi going back on ourselves for the second bus (the taxi to the second bus was the same cost as the taxi to the airport!). The taxi to the airport was also about 25 mins whereas the second bus took an hour!!!! Not practical at all and just added stress!2024-10-13

  • reviews1★I had the worst experience with this company. When my friend and I arrived at the bus, the driver took both of our suitcases and loaded them onto the bus – we saw this with our own eyes. The bus itself was in terrible condition – honestly, it was falling apart. During the drive, the driver was texting and talking on the phone, which is completely unacceptable. And without exaggerating, we were driving at 30 km/h for over an hour on the highway. On top of that, the bus randomly stopped twice in the middle of the road for no reason. With about an hour left of the trip, the driver came to the back of the bus and handed me his phone. A man on the line told me in English that they had found my suitcase in the middle of the street in Sarandë. I explained that this was not my responsibility, as I had trusted the driver to load it – which both of us had clearly seen him do. When the driver was informed about the situation, he started yelling at me, saying it was my fault, and completely denied having done anything wrong. He took no responsibility at all and was extremely rude and aggressive in the way he spoke to me. They offered to send the suitcase with the next bus, but I wasn’t going to receive it in time before my flight. It all turned into a huge mess, and I ended up having to book a new flight for the next day – and pay for a hotel – just to get my luggage back. To make things worse, the other bus driver who brought my suitcase demanded €10 for doing so. I will never travel back and will absolutely never use this company again. It was a truly awful experience. This was yesterday at 09:302025-06-07
  • reviews1★I purchased a ticket for a journey from Saranda to Tirana Airport on June 8th. I bought a ticket for a bus departing from Saranda at 17:00. The system automatically created two separate tickets. The first one was for Saranda to Tirana Terminal (departure at 17:00 – arrival at 21:20). The second one was from Tirana Terminal to Tirana Airport (departure at 22:00 – arrival at 22:30). There was only a 40-minute gap between the two trips, and I only found out the details of the second trip after I had already made the purchase. However, the bus from Saranda arrived at the terminal at 23:00. The terminal, I later learned, closes at 22:00. When I arrived, there were no vehicles available. I was left stranded. Moreover, I paid €8 for 2 people for the terminal-to-airport transfer and an additional €4 service fee — a total of €12 wasted.2025-06-09
  • reviews1★I had purchased two bus tickets from sarande to Tirana airport. So there was a transfer. The bus was very late getting to Tirana and so we were stranded at the bus terminal. The driver should have put us in a cab and paid for it.2025-06-09

  • reviews1★They were very polite until you bought the ticket, but I can't begin to describe their rudeness here! A young blonde man with black sunglasses waiting at the Saranda bus stop. A perverted young man who gave priority to beautiful women and yelled and scolded others who asked questions! Due to my bureaucratic duties, I kept quiet that day to avoid getting into trouble! I've never seen someone both rude and perverted in my life, so this was a lesson learned! Saturday, August 2nd, 10:45 AM bus from Saranda to Tirana.

  • reviews1★I took the bus from Tirana to Saranda in Albania, but it wasn't easy to find the bus stop when leaving the airport. I actually had to take a taxi for 20 minutes once I arrived at the airport to get to the bus stop. Given how complicated the process was, I almost missed my bus, and the same thing happened on the way back. You have to go to a tourist office before boarding the bus. It's not enough to have already bought your bus ticket. The process is complicated for no good reason. My driver was not at all friendly and didn't bother to explain anything to me, even though we didn't speak the same language, and of course I missed the bus. I lost money and had to pay €170 for taxis to get to the airport. It was an obstacle course both ways because of the complicated system for no good reason, the lack of information, the fact that it was poorly signposted, and the lack of professionalism of the drivers. I do not recommend it!2025-09-21

  • reviews1★Transport in Albania is run by greedy people who avoid tolls and go on busy roads to save money, tell you it is a direct service when they pick up and drop off people along the way, do parcel deliveries along the way, take twice as long to finish a journey than it would take to go there directly AND if that wasn't bad enough, they do it all without air conditioning. You are expected to waste your time on a bus and drip in sweat with your legs up high in the air because of their greed, instead of being out there enjoying your life or working etc. Their greed and inability to take someone from A to B in a quick and efficient manner, stops everyone else from prospering. Further they stop fir a break for 20 minutes because they are taking so long to complete the journey. When the last bus leaves at 4pm, you don't have time to do all the things you wanted to do at your destination. You don't spend money at the restaurants there or visit all the tourist attractions because you don't have time. You can't use the bus yo go to work or do business because by the time you arrive at your destination half your day is gone and you are dripping in sweat. These greedy people make everyone poor. Even when there are later buses, there is only one at 10pm, so you are stuck travelling at night and then there is no transport for you to go home from tye bus station and you are forced to get ripped off by taxi drivers that charge you three times as much. The sad thing is that the transport is not even cheap. You are just paying a lot to waste your time and be uncomfortable.2026-07-03
  • reviews1★I booked four bus tickets from Saranda to Tirana online with Gjirafa Travel. On the day we went as advised half an hour early to the Saranda office in ith our luggage. The man inside the Gjirafa office told us we needed to get a taxi or walk to the bus terminus. We asked him if he could take us or else find us a taxi himself as we didn’t know from where to grab a taxi. He told us curtly we would have to find our own taxi so he did not lift a finger to assist us. Finally we managed to Gail a taxi who took us with barely enough time to go to the bus terminus where we showed the office personnel the online order and they gave us the seat allocation. All in all very disgraceful behaviour a. Will never book through Gjirafa travel ever again.2026-07-09

  • reviews1★Desk personnel was rude and non helpful. Nobody told us about the shuttle that takes passengers from downtown to the bus station. We had to walk fir half an hour to reach the bus starion under 40 degrees heat. Again station personnel and bus driver were not friendly at all2026-07-20
  • reviews1★Disaster!! Everything was wrong and 2 hours delay ! It’s a scam! Price is almost same as taxi. No communication whatsoever. In the middle of the journey we have a stop and nobody knows how long we will wait. Driver went out, can’t find him. Disaster .2026-07-23
  • reviews1★Wrong terminal, horrible organisation, bus late2026-07-27
  • reviews1★The information about where the bus departed was very unhelpful, leading us to wait in the wrong location (it’s wrong on Google maps, not clear in emails) and be late for our coach which meant it was full so we had to travel on the stairs2026-07-27
  • reviews1★Terrible information about where to meet up, we lost the bus…. Noone to help2026-07-28
  • reviews1★Incredibly tight spaces, for such a long trip. Unplanned stops without any notes, where other passengers get on the bus, making the cramped space even hotter. It was one of my worst bus experiences. Never again.2026-08-03
  • reviews1★We had the worst experience ever. Instead of driving 2 1/2 hours from Tirana to Budva, it took us 7 hours. The bus hat no AC (it was extremely hot) and then the bus broke down. We were in contact with someone from the office and she was talking very rude an unprofessionell to us!2026-08-09
  • reviews1★The bus just came 2 hours late, and the location indicated on the ticket was not the correct one to take the bus. Only speaking with a local we figured out that the bus is not even allowed to get access to the place indicated, and then we take a ride up to the entrance of the city, in the road, in the middle of nowhere, and the bus was very late. I needed to call 3 times for the company operator to confirm if we really were going to have anything on there. After to be on the bus, we discovered that many other people had booked at 3 pm or 5 pm and wait for all the afternoon, and the bus one came at 9 pm. That's a shame, and you should take it out from your website. That's not a serious company at all.2026-08-10
  • reviews1★No air conditionner on the bus with a 36 degree outside so you can imagine the temperature inside. A vérifier difficult travel + thé information wasn't very clear for the departure and the arrival.2026-08-11
  • reviews1★Diamant travel agency experience was absolutely diabolical. The staff (not the bus driver he was so sweet) at the station were absolutely nasty. The bus broke down and was stranded on the side of the road for 5 hours without any water or bathrooms for the entirety of the evening into the night, no replacement bus and the company would not respond to our asks for help or the bus drivers. Arrived 6 hours late. Majority of the people on the bus said the woman manning the front desk and responding to WhatsApp messages (once and never again) was incredibly rude. I would not recommend this company to my worst enemy. Will be seeking refund.2026-08-12
  • reviews1★Il viaggio ha fatto un'ora e più di ritardo. Questo ha comportato delle difficoltà nell'organizzazione finale. Siamo arrivati in aeroporto molto tempo dopo rispetto a quando dovevamo arrivare.2026-08-15
  • reviews1★Jeszcze nie dojechaliśmy awaria 😔2026-08-19
  • reviews1★The bus had broken a tire and left the passengers in the middle of the highway without any sort of help or transportation alternative. Had to resort to a taxi to complete the journey. Awful experience and customer service.2026-08-20
  • reviews1★The ticket purchasing system makes no sense; buying a ticket for a specific date and time doesn't even guarantee you'll be able to travel. It’s completely unclear that after buying, you don't actually receive a ticket, but just a piece of paper that means nothing and has to be exchanged for a real ticket. Nowhere is it stated that you need to go to a counter/office to exchange it, there's only information saying you must arrive 30 minutes early, which tells you absolutely nothing. The staff is neither polite nor helpful. On top of that, the air conditioning on the bus barely works. You should improve the system so that people can buy an actual ticket online with a reserved seat, without the requirement to show up early2026-08-22

  • reviews2★Tirana-Budva bus. It was a bad experience. The bus was scheduled to leave at 5 am, but it departed at about 5:40. At the station, it was revealed that a ticket needed to be printed. This is not stated on the ticket, which caused additional stress. Printing one ticket costs 1 euro. It is expensive and seems like a rip-off, but there is no alternative. I am still not sure that you really need to print the ticket and that this is not a business scheme. I bought a ticket to Petrovac, but the driver said that the bus does not stop there and goes only to Budva and asked: "Will you go?". Of course I will, I am standing at the bus station in Tirana at 5 am! The driver smoked on the bus, but this is a common practice here. The toilets did not work, there was one stop between Tirana and Budva. At 10 am the heat started and it turned out that the air conditioner could not cope with the heat. Two stars just for getting from point A to point B (almost).2025-06-28
  • reviews2★Easy to use site but when it comes to using the bus services, it’s awful. Very unorganised, took us ages to get our tickets in Saranda. Disorganised, no one knew what they were doing.2025-06-30
  • reviews2★.2025-07-15
  • reviews2★Drive was fine, but the magjups were so annoying. A/C also was mid.2025-07-26
  • reviews2★The bus at the central station to the airport was canceled without any information. We needed to take a taxi. I paid two times for this bus2025-09-15
  • reviews2★Bus was too hot and air conditioning was not working properly. I booked a ticket from Sarande to Tirana airport. The ticket did not state that you have to go to another area to get to Tirana airport as they do not interchange at the bus station. This is not worth it as you will have to catch another taxi from Tirana bus station to tirana central station to go to Tirana airport. We wasted our money on the second part of this trip as we had not enough time to get to tirana central station so we had to take a taxi from Tirana bus station. Please ensure you communicate this to customers as it is misleading especially when they do not know the country well.2025-09-28
  • reviews2★It was very warm in the bus and the air system didn’t work. The bus was not in a good state. There was a problem with the battery. The driver wasn’t really nice and didn’t speak English. After the break, the bus couldn’t start so guys from the bus had to push the bus whole the driver was starting the bus! And the curtains in the bus smelled really bad!2025-10-28
  • reviews2★The driver on the way from sarande to tirana was very rude, he yelled at us because we had the nerve to get back on the bus after the break😅 He started smashing the seats and cursing at us. Not recommending this experience!2026-07-06
  • reviews2★The ticket said we need to go the butrinti office 30 minutes before the departure. Turns out you dont need anything from there, we went there just to be informed that we have to get somewhere else (where we actually came from). So it was a waste of time and money. They said that we should get a taxi, and becuse there were many people for the same reason we thought we can get a cab together then to save money, but the taxi driver said that he only takes two people at a time (there was enough place for 4 people). The 30 minutes is probably given, so you cant walk to the station. Fortunately, we were early, at the station they said that we only have to be there 10 minutes before. So its a complete scam.2026-07-08
  • reviews2★I don’t understand why I should pre book a ticket with apple wallet function. At the bus, thej wanted to see the mejl (several times) - not the apple wallet tickets. What was the point with the bar code? I had no reserved seat, and had to wait outside the bus for 1/2 an hour, and after persons with reserved sests entered the bus I could choose among the remaining seats. In Sweden, if you pay with an app, you immediately recieve a ticket in your apole wallet with reservated seat number - on the bus they just scan the bar code.2026-07-18
  • reviews2★Very crowed buses and not on time. Be sure to take an early bus. Would be nice if the left from the airport.2026-07-25
  • reviews2★You sold 2 ticket from samandra to tiarans and then s tickets to the airport. We were dropped in middle of nowhere and did have to taxi. Very bad job2026-07-31

I arrived 30 mins beforehand as well and asked someone but no one mentioned going to an office so i knew non the less.2024-09-11

  • reviews3★Air conditioning on the bus from Saranda to Tirana was not strong enough.2025-06-27
  • reviews3★We had problems to get the second bus before the first bus had been late. But even if we would have arrived in time it seems impossible to reach a bus in Tirana central station when you only have 40 minutes to get there from Tirana north south station, so I really don't know why you are offering such tickets2025-07-17
  • reviews3★The bus left on time which was very good. Also the bus company let to change the time of the tickets. The bus was a bit worn out, it smelled a bit of mould. Also it was weird that the bus took the gasoline when the passengers were on board not before and it stopped in random places to take more passengers on although there was no place. Therefor the journey was longer as well.2025-08-02
  • reviews3★The ride took 6 hours instead of 4 so we almost missed our flight, the seats were extremely uncomfortable and the air condition was not working well.2025-08-11

  • reviews3★Hi. We were not explained on where the bus will drop us and that we still need to travel to the airport. The driver just stopped and told us that is the depot.2025-08-27
  • reviews3★The journey went well but the organization for boarding the bus was not good. We purchased our ticket online. Arriving at the bus stop I show my ticket online, a person lets me board the bus. 10 minutes later she asks to check then makes us get off the bus. He was wrong about the destination. There we want to take another bus and we are told to go to a counter to exchange our online ticket for a paper ticket. 15 min wait. I thought the bus was going to wait for me and so I put my luggage in this other bus which went well to Tirana. Anyway, the bus left with our suitcases! A gentleman immediately called the driver and we finally collected our luggage. Departure was announced at 10:45 a.m. arrival at 3 p.m. in Tirana. We left at 11:15 a.m. and arrived at 4 p.m.2025-09-01
  • reviews3★1) It was necessary to arrive 30 minutes early but the driver only opened the door at the picket time, even dit was raining. The bus departed some minutes late. 2) there is no wifi or energy inside the bus 3) the stop time in the middle of the journey was not correct. The departure was late again 4) the arrival time was late2025-10-17
  • reviews3★very old bus. uncomfortable ride.2026-06-13
  • reviews3★Firstly it was an hour late arriving at least, secondly the seats were unbelievably uncomfortable and cramped. Bus driver needs an attitude adjustment. The stop was way too long, especially that we were already late.2026-06-22
  • reviews3★The journey was correct, but the ticket and website didn't warn that the office and pick up point has changed, I had to take a taxi to arrive at time.2026-07-09

  • reviews4★Easy to buy but more tips about needing to check in and directions would be helpful2024-09-21
  • reviews4★The booking process and the payment have become much quicker, that is great. It would be great if the online ticket would work at the bus right away instead of going to the ticket office still to get a manually issued paper ticket, especially when there are many tourists and long lines. Overall though every driver and every ticket office clerk has been very friendly and helpful, thank you for that! I will always prefer the bus for my many travels in Albania!!2024-11-13

  • reviews4★The travel information was complicated to understand. I was going from sadande to tirana airport, while booking it said there was a change or transfer but for the transfer I would have to change from tirana north and south to tirana central station which was 7km away. This was very confusing because actually it was very easy, the bus from the same travel provider was directly from the north and south bus stop itself and there was no change of station. It was change of bus at the same station.2025-09-14
  • reviews4★The driver did a great job but the bus was a bit dirty and the curtains needed washed quite badly.2025-11-22
  • reviews4★late departure but the driver was fast so we arrive still close to the arrival time. i just dont get it, why i still need to go to the ticket office after buying to secure my seat if it is already a guaranteed seat. if it just the same way i could just buy direct to the ticketing office and save for the online booking fee.2025-11-27
  • reviews4★In the bus from Tirana to Saranda and vice versa seats are much too small to sit next to each other - compared to larger busses.2026-01-09

Not understandable while I having an electronic ticket should have a check in and to receive a paper with number if my place. Several times during the trip the bus stopped due to the technical reason. It might be good to fix all technical issues before the trip.2026-06-03
  • reviews4★Nice experience, good driver .2026-06-21
  • reviews4★Lots of confusion, there were three different busses going from Sarande to Tirane and the drivers had no clue what bus we were supposed to be on. They sent us to the correct one 5 minutes before departure and thankfully we got two seats together but some people were separated from their group.2026-06-23
  • reviews4★The positive thing is that we had a garanteed seat, which is why we choose to travel with you, since we didn’t had that on the other bus on the outward journey. And we had a pause in the half of the journey, what was good too. But what I didn’t like was that the bus was very old and not so clean. And the air conditioner was not working so well.2026-06-23
  • reviews4★Buena atención! El personal me resolvió un problema con mi Ticket que perdí. Sin embargo, pienso que no deberían trabajar con compañías poco formales como el bus de Saranda a Tirana .

  • reviews5★My opinion is that Gjirafa Travel itself, as the website where the tickets are purchased, works very well. My problem was with Trans Butrinti, since they assigned me the back seat even though I purchased my tickets 3 months in advance - bear in mind the back seats are 5 in total and very close to each other. Also, these seats can't be reclined given it is the last row. 2 ladies bought their tickets right after me, since they did not have an existing reservation like I did, and they were still given front reclinable seats. They should prioritize passengers with existing reservations or let passengers choose their seat while the are buying the tickets online. Lastly, they allow for a couple passengers to travel standing, which is very dangerous.2025-07-16

  • reviews5★I’ve used Jirafa Travel several times now, and it’s always been a great experience. Booking through them is quick, easy, and very convenient, especially when you’re traveling a lot. I’ve also been using their eSIMs while traveling across the Balkans, and they’ve worked really well the entire time. Having reliable internet has made moving between countries so much easier. Overall, they’ve been a dependable company throughout my travels, and I’d definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a hassle-free travel experience.2026-07-15

  • reviews5★Please can Drivers or bus company let passengers know there are designated seats. Most passengers choose their own seats and everyone had to move. Just writing it on the tickets is not enough, no one actually looks at the tickets once they've been issued.2026-08-05

The bus sells more tickets than it has seats; 16 riders report being denied boarding, forced to stand for hours, or left behind despite paying in advance, with online ticket holders often turned away while station ticket buyers board first. We lose money to refunds and compensation claims, damage our brand on a line where 34 of 77 reviews give 1–2 stars, and risk legal liability for overbooking a vehicle.

  • reviews1★reported this15 persons car, we are 22 people in the car. Most passengers were standing. Most passengers were standing. Everyone was uneasy.2025-10-26
  • reviews1★reported thisWe were waiting for 20 minutes past the scheduled departure time, and when it finally arrived it occoured to us that we will be riding in a mini-bus that didn't have the amount of seats neeeded to move all of us, it was 5 seats short. So some of the ticket buyers were forcred to ride all the way through while standing. Awful experience to say the least.2025-11-01
  • reviews1★reported thisWe waited at the designated spot for an hour before departure. Despite this, the driver only picked up some of the passengers. He left the rest without resolving the issue. How is it even possible that more tickets were sold than there are seats on the bus? We had to wait another several hours for another bus from a different carrier to reach our destination. Therefore, I am requesting a refund of the ticket reservation costs and compensation.2026-01-06
  • reviews1★reported thisVery absurd and bad experience! Small van with no air condition. 30 degrees inside! I got the tickets 3 days before but the bus was overbooked with people standup along the corridor. Terrible.2026-06-03
  • reviews1★reported thisWas not able to enter the bus due to oversold tickets. Unacceptable...2026-06-18
  • reviews1★reported thisUnfortunately the driver of our return trip to Skopje essentially waived our reservations and we had to take a different bus two hours later. I want my money back.2026-07-06
  • reviews1★reported thisEven though I was there on time, they refused to let me board the vehicle, saying it was full. I had made my reservation hours in advance. They let someone who paid in cash board instead, and left me behind. Even after I told the driver that I had already paid in advance, he just shrugged, made dismissive gestures with his hands, and didn’t even say a word. When I asked for my money back, he simply waved his hands, got into the vehicle, and drove away.2026-07-14
  • reviews1★reported thisI paid money just like everyone else so I can sit on the floor of the bus. There were no free sits and the driver told me to sit on the floor of the bus or wait for the other one. At least I got to sit on the floor, the other people who also bought tickets from you didn't get any chance to get on the bus, and some of them bought them since February and planned their trips so this rude driver can destroy it for them. The driver did a lot of driving mistakes where he got all of us into danger and he got into a heated argument on the border.2026-08-07
  • reviews1★reported thisOn our return trip from Pristina to Skopje, my daughter and I traveled with 25 more people on a bus suitable for 23 people (4 people more than the capacity), and 4 people were left on the ground. Anlso, priority was given to people who had a paper ticket, before those who had an online booking. It is unbelievable that you accept more reservations than the actual seats capacity!2026-08-08
  • reviews1★reported thisI have scammed. I paid a ticket with your company. Arrived 2 hours in advance at the station. When the bus came, they let other people go in then said the bus is full. I could not take the bus. I want refund. It is outrageous of you. I had to buy an other tikcet, more expensive of course.2026-08-15
  • reviews1★reported thisSe potessi mettere 0 stelle lo farei. Purtroppo la mia esperienza non è stata affatto positiva. Ho comprato i biglietti online e non sono garantiti, il personale fa salire coloro che hanno acquistato il biglietto cartaceo e se rimane posto ti fa salire. Ho prenotato per Pristina il 14/08/2026, la mattina nessuna informazione e l'autobus che dovevamo prendere non si è presentato e ho dovuto prendere quello dell' ora successiva senza che nessuno ha dato informazioni utili e quindi siamo arrivati a destinazione con quasi 2 ore di ritardo. Il vero problema è stato il viaggio di ritorno dove nonostante avessimo il biglietto ci è stato negato di salire. I posti disponibili erano meno della metà del necessario. Dopo discussioni hanno fatto viaggiare alcuni di noi in condizioni pessime, in totale assenza di procedure di sicurezza viaggiando su un banchetto di plastica nel corridoio, senza aria condizionata e in totale illegalità. Altri sono dovuti rimanere a terra nonostante avessero acquistato il biglietto. È stata una vera follia, senza nessuna indicazione, lasciando delle persone con regolare biglietto in un paese straniero. Mi sarei aspettato minimo il rimborso del biglietto e le scuse con una alternativa per tornare e invece il personale se ne è fregato. Ho trovato tutto questo totalmente assurdo, una situazione in cui non mi sono mai trovato nonostante io viaggi ogni mese anche per lavoro. Sconsiglio vivamente a tutti questa pessima esperienza.2026-08-15
  • reviews2★reported thisOn the travel to Pristina the bus was broken. The door was open a bit the whole way. on the return bus to Skopje the bus was overbooked. Around 10 people couldn't take it2025-09-01
  • reviews2★reported thisJourney from Skopje to Pristina was perfect. Everyone has it's own place and it went smooth. Problem occurred when we were traveling back to Skopje from Pristina. We had tickets bought online with qr code , everything was paid in advance but the driver was letting to the bus only passengers with physical paper ticket from station and there were too many passenger to time we had bought our tickets. So situation was that passenger with paper ticket can go to bus and others who bought ticket online need stay because it's no enough seats. Fortunately some passenger translated to the driver from English to Macedonian and driver let us travel but we sitter on plastic chair in the aisle between other passenger , and some passengers were standing the whole journey to Skopje . So we traveled like 30 people in bus for 20 people (approximately). Your company is joke , you need to learn to sell only that much ticket how many places are on the real bus . This is not driver's mistake, he only drives and needs to deal with that situations daily as we heard . Your company selling much more tickets than seats in bus so you need to improve and also give driver som app that he can scan qr code and let passengers to the bus with online ticket also not only with paper tickets and then he needs to deals with situation what to do with the people left. We are grateful about driver because in the end he allow us to travel but as I said it was very uncomfortable to sit in the aisle basically between others like animals. Next time I would buy only paper tickets at the station if you don't know how to work with technologies.2026-07-30
  • reviews3★reported thisSeats were not guaranteed, people rode on the floor.2025-10-28
  • reviews3★reported this-in Skopje you have to pay an extra ticket to access the bus platform -I asked twice in Pristina if all was good with my ticket, and they said yes. Then when I arrived they said the bus was full and they could not grant a seat for me, even though I had booked a seat for that bus2026-05-11
  • reviews5★reported thisTickets worked well, only for the journey towards Pristina the bus driver through out all people with an online reservations as the bus was overbooked. After some obvious complaints for that criteria we got back in the bus and enjoyed the trip.2025-10-07
  • reviews1★no AC for whole trip and delay 90mins2025-07-27
  • reviews1★On 14.08.2025 I traveled with Gazmend Turist from Prishtina to Skopje. Unfortunately, the experience was extremely disappointing and unsafe. The bus broke down in the middle of the highway, and all passengers were left waiting for over 2.5 hours at night without any clear information about what was happening. Even more concerning, no safety measures were taken – not even a simple warning triangle to alert other vehicles on the road. This created a dangerous situation for both passengers and other drivers. Basic passenger communication and safety procedures were completely missing. I expected at least timely updates, assistance, or visible concern for the wellbeing of the passengers, but this was not the case. This level of service is unacceptable for an international route. I strongly recommend the company to improve both safety standards and communication with passengers in such situations.2025-08-15
  • reviews1★The driver of the bus from Skopje to Pristina (on October 6, 2025, at 8 AM) tried to throw us off the bus despite the fact that we had tickets for a specific departure time – he ordered passengers with tickets bought online to get off.2025-10-09

  • reviews1★We barely got let into the bus on the way back. People without online tickets were prioritized at boarding, and we could only board after all the people without online tickets physical tickets had boarded (even though we were at the bus more than 30 minutes prior to departure). This led to us having to stand up during the entire 2 hour bus trip2026-05-18

  • reviews1★Keq2026-06-08
  • reviews1★My experience with Gjirafa Travel / Gazmend Turist was extremely disappointing and, frankly, unacceptable. The departure journey from Skopje to Prishtina was very unpleasant. The air conditioning barely worked, making the bus hot, stuffy, and uncomfortable throughout the trip. Despite passengers raising concerns, the driver was rude and unwilling to address the issue. The return journey from Prishtina to Skopje was even worse. We arrived at the station around 5:30 PM, well before the scheduled departure, and presented our valid electronic ticket on our phones. However, the driver refused to let us board, insisting that only a printed ticket would be accepted, despite no such requirement being clearly communicated during the booking process. We were forced to run around the bus station searching for a print shop, causing unnecessary stress and anxiety. After eventually allowing us to board, the driver deliberately made us sit at the very back of the bus despite many other seats being available. Throughout the interaction, his behaviour was rude, disrespectful, and unprofessional. We left feeling that we were treated differently because of our skin colour, which made the experience even more upsetting. No passenger should be subjected to such treatment. Good customer service starts with respect, professionalism, and equal treatment for everyone. I urge Gjirafa Travel to investigate this incident thoroughly and provide me with a formal response explaining what action has been taken against the staff involved. If I do not receive a satisfactory response, I will have no option but to escalate this matter to the relevant consumer protection authorities and share my experience on public review platforms so that other travellers are aware of how we were treated. I sincerely hope the company takes this complaint seriously and ensures that no other passengers have to endure such an unpleasant experience.2026-07-11
  • reviews1★Gazmend Turist drivers do not accept tickets purchased online through Girafa Travel. They only accept tickets purchased at the bus station and allow these passengers to board first. Passengers with online tickets through Girafa Travel will be left behind at the bus station.2026-08-14
  • reviews2★Hello, the online shopping experience was very good, however, I thought it was terrible that the driver prevented those who bought online from getting on the bus, we had to wait the last minutes to board and get the worst seats, I didn't understand why we had to wait to get inside and I went through a stressful situation during the holidays that I wouldn't like. I was going from pristina kosovo to skopje 1st September 6pm2025-09-02

  • reviews3★Ok2025-11-19
  • reviews3★Overall experience was positive, although it is not clear why there should be a difference between those who buy the ticket online and those who buy it at the desk. In Skopje We had to wait for another bus as the first one was full of passengers who bought their ticket at the desk and arrived after us: being very cold outside this was not pleasant. In Pristina we made sure to arrive early as chances to not find a seat are quite high. Drivers could be more road wise as they tend to fidget quite a lot on cell phones, papers or being distracted talking to passengers.2026-01-03
  • reviews3★Please update the booking process!!!! We booked online tickets for Sunday 14/06/2026 at 8:00, but when were at the station, they told us that there was NO BUS at 8:00 on Sundays, only at 10:10a.m. 2 hours spent in the neighborhood, nothing in the quarter... Please please please... Update your travel schedule!! No bus.. No tickets!!! Please!!!2026-06-27

The bus driver was very rude as well and talking to someone else on the bus and when we got our tickets he kept bitching. So I wouldn’t recommend montoya travel.2026-08-12

  • reviews5★I was backpack-travelling Europe when I was in Tirana, searching for a bus ticket to Skopje and further to Sofia. It was either Google Maps or Rome to Rio that led me to the Gjirafa website. After a few minutes it was clear that I could book Tirana to Skopje (with connecting in Pristina) at Gjirafa. The cherry on the pie was an eSIM card for 12 Balkan countries for a good price - 100% fit for my needs! After 15 minutes I had purchased two bus tickets plus the eSIM card. I was happy and could relaxedly continue with my sightseeing in Tirana.2025-08-24

  • reviews1★reported thisUnfortunately there’s no 0 to select as it’s my score for this company. Staff 0 behaviour to treat customers, very rude and think we’re animals, no English at all. I got my tickets 3 weeks before my trip, due a problem with the taxi I arrived at bus station 10 min before to departure and the guy very rude simply told me there was only one seat left but I’ve bought 2. As I didn’t show up 30 min before they were sold all the tickets at moment in the bus station (???) and the only way to heading to Sardana is one of us seat on the floor during the trip of almost 4 hours!!!! It’s completely unacceptable, there’s no control about tickets, no security, no air conditioning, bus was messed of organisation, passagens discussing about seats as the info in the ticket was trrrible to understand as they mark with the pan (?), my seat in the ticket was 51 and the bus had only 49! The funny is that people who just bought tickets at bus station were seating and us who bought earlier to avoid problems seated on the floor, that’s disgusting! I will never recommend this company, better pay a little extra a rent a car or got a private van for groups. Avoid this company to preserve your mental health!2024-09-11
  • reviews1★reported thisThe trip both ways was terrible. The drivers sell extra tickets and we were sitting on stairs. Ensure electronic check in, that people after having bought the tickets shouldn’t stand in the queue to make a check in the office 30 minutes befire - it’s old school in 21 century! You have foreigners coming from around the globe, please adapt the technologies to attract good tourists, that are ready to travel and pay in your country. Shame!2025-06-09

  • reviews1★reported thisTo Whom It May Concern, I am writing to formally raise a complaint about the deeply unacceptable experience I had on 26/04/2026 with Gjirafa Travel, and I want to be very clear: I am not satisfied with a 1-star rating alone — I want a full refund, and I want this matter taken seriously. I booked my seat well in advance. This was not a last-minute reservation — I planned ahead, paid the full fare, and had every reasonable expectation that my seat would be held for me. On the day of travel, I encountered a delay and, knowing I would arrive approximately 10 minutes late, I attempted to call ahead and inform your team. Nobody answered. Not once. I arrived at 3:50 PM. My seat had been given away to another passenger. Let me be direct about what happened next: I was forced to sit on the floor of the bus. On the floor. After paying full price for a reserved seat. This is not a minor inconvenience — it is a complete failure of your basic obligation as a transport provider. A booked seat is a contract. You gave it away while I was actively trying to reach you. To make matters significantly worse, your staff’s behaviour toward me was rude and dismissive. Not apologetic. Not solution-oriented. Rude. When a paying customer is already in a difficult situation, that is the moment your staff should step up — and they did the opposite. I want to be very clear about what I am asking for: 1. A full refund for this journey, given that the service I paid for was not provided. 2. A written explanation of how my pre-booked seat was given to another passenger despite my prior contact attempt. 3. A formal response to the conduct of the staff member(s) involved. I gave this experience 1 star on your feedback platform, and I will not be stopping there. If this is not resolved promptly and to a satisfactory standard, I will be escalating this complaint to the relevant consumer protection authority and leaving detailed public reviews across every platform available to me. I have screenshots, records of my attempted call, and the timestamp of my arrival. I expect a response within 5 working days.2026-04-26
  • reviews1★reported thisThey didn’t let me on the bus and told me it was full even if I’ve already paid online with it so they gave me a ticket for the next one and then during the trip they told me to pay because it was another company2026-07-13
  • reviews1★reported thisArrived and they had already sold our seat to another customer so we have to spend €70 for another bus ticket on another private provider. Rude customer service and would not recommend purchasing a ticket ahead of time as it means nothing to them. They will sell the seats either way. Purc2026-08-06
  • reviews3★reported thisThe bus was very old, filthy and generally very uncomfortable - I have bruises on my legs from the seat pressing into them, plus if anyone reclines at all then there is no space at all. Also, the bus stopped far too many times, which was annoying. Multiple times they picked up people, even though there were no seats available, so those people ended up standing in the aisles imposing on the original passenger's space. The multiple stops seemed totally unnecessary too, turning a 4 hour trip (which could probably be 3) into a 5.5 hour trip. It was also almost thirty mins late departing from the original station in Tirana.2024-09-04
  • reviews3★reported thisSo it a bus I know but the orginizer gave the same buss seat to three people including me then he put me in a very bad seat, the air conditioner was extremely bad it was a nightmare for the journey between Durres and salande2026-08-24
  • reviews4★reported thisBooking was fine. When arriving, company told me that lucky seats were available, I don't think they take the booking system too seriously in terms of reservations.2025-06-02
  • reviews4★reported thisThere were a few people who bought tickets and weren't able to get on the bus or were offered to sit on the floor (some did!) Is this double-selling or a faulty reservation system? Regardless this HAS to be fixed- btw these weren't $1-2 cheap tix but almost $20 (which can get me from DC to NYC). Once we got on the bus the ride was alright, AC was working and all was good...until the bus side panel holding all the suitcases flew open and a bunch of luggage (including mine) went flying down the road. This caused an almost 2 hour delay though thankfully there were no injuries or accidents beyond 1 destroyed and 1 lost suitcase. Girafa: make sure the buses have enough seats for all of us and are operationally sound...2025-08-25
  • reviews1★I booked a bus through Gjirafa Travel, but the bus simply did not exist. I arrived at the station on time, but there was no bus, no driver, and no staff to assist me. I had to book another ticket last minute, which was frustrating and an unnecessary extra expense. I contacted customer service and requested a refund, but they never responded. Instead, they sent me a message asking me to rate my experience—so here it is: terrible service, zero reliability, and no customer support. I strongly advise against using this service unless you want to risk being stranded. I expect a proper response and a refund for the ticket I paid for.2025-03-11

  • reviews1★Absolutely unreliable service and the worst travel experience. On our onward journey from Tirana to Sarande we were boarded on a old small coach that was not good for travel longer than 1-2 hours - it also broke on the way and we were delayed by over 1 hours to reach Sarande. I had booked return tickets and to my surprise I was told the bus is cancelled. I didn't get any notice, email or call from the agency or travel operator and was left without information in the bus station in Sarande. I have to book a private taxi at EUR 150 to travel to Tirana as I had my flight. The cancellation without even informing the client is against the rule and laws and I have raised this with their customer service without any resolution yet. Absolutely poor service and not something you can rely on2025-05-07

  • reviews1★Cogí el autobús de Sarande dirección a Tirana, ya tenía el ticket que lo compré a ustedes por internet, la salida del autobús de Sarande hacia TIRANA era a las 2 de la tarde del día 20 de Mayo. Pregunte al chico que estaba controlando los tickets de los viajeros que si podía darme un asiento un poco más adelante, ya que mi asiento era atrás del todo y yo me mareo y lo paso mal, la respuesta de este chico, con muy mala educación y muy alterado me contestó que cogiera un Taxi si me marehaba, me cuesta entender que personas como este chico puedan trabajar de esa forma nada de respeto hacia el viajero, cuando tiene que dar ejemplo de educación y saber estar, porque estás personas no hacen bien su trabajo y dan muy mala imagen al turismo con sus comportamientos, sinceramente llevó muy mala imagen del trato que se medio en esta Compañía por parte de esta persona que trabaja con ustedes, no llevo un buen recuerdo2025-05-22
  • reviews1★The men running the North-South terminal were awful and lazy, except the younger one. The one sitting in the booth selling tickets was the worst. Busy talking to each other, fighting, and arguing instead of keeping the area clean and running on time. Not even a trash can for customers. Bus left an hour late. Aircon never got cold. Stopped halfway for a break. Stopped again to get a new tire, but did not tell customers why they stopped.2025-05-26

  • reviews1★Yesterday at 4:30 pm, we took the AB979TK bus. The driver and his assistant played loud music from the moment we got off. 5 or 6 people repeatedly asked him to turn it down. When he didn't, I politely asked him to turn it down because it was becoming unbearable. He said no and laughed with his colleague. I decided to take a picture of both of us to post on social media because we couldn't believe the lack of respect. When I took the picture, he hit my hand and knocked my phone to the floor. It's worth remembering that he was the one driving in charge of more than 40 people. He still didn't turn the volume down. I don't understand how a company would hire such a disrespectful and violent person. I have a photo of both of us, from the bus with the license plate, and I will also post my feedback on Google and social media. I'm sorry for hiring people with such rudeness!2025-06-03
  • reviews1★It is stated on the website that non-flexible booking can be cancelled within one hour of booking but this feature is not working. I made an error with the time and could not cancel a booking immediately after. My money gone and no means of calling this company.2025-06-05

  • reviews1★We got two tickets for our round-trip bus journey from Tirana to Saranda (4 hrs bus ride each way) and it was awful. The bus was dirty, the air conditioning wasn’t working despite the high temperatures (making the ride very uncomfortable) and the bathroom was out of service. On both the outbound and return trips, the bus was delayed by over an hour. When we politely asked the staff if there was a problem, we were treated rudely and our concerns were dismissed. NOT RECOMMENDED.2025-06-28

Additionally, there is no facility in the bus station, nowhere to eat nowhere to drink. Can you imagine a bus station in the centre of capital without any facility? We experienced.2025-07-22

  • reviews1★We took a bus from Tirana to Sarande on Friday 25th July 2025. That was the worse experience ever in any country, 41 degrees Celsius and no air conditioning. Everyone was close to fainting. Whole journey was supposed to finish in 4 hours and 15 minutes, we arrived after 6 hours. I would never go again with gjirafa travel.2025-07-26

  • reviews1★The air con was so bad it hardly worked and the driver played music loudly the whole time when people were trying to sleep. The bus was also delayed because some girls were annoyed they couldn’t sit together so the driver tried to ask people to move and rearrange seats when people had gotten there early to get seats. Not a great experience2025-08-01

  • reviews1★I had a terrible experience with this agency. I booked a ticket from Bunece to Tirane, but the bus was delayed by more than 30 minutes. When I tried to contact the agency for information, the person I spoke with was extremely rude and offensive just because I asked for details about the arrival time. Completely unacceptable behavior. I will never use this agency again.2025-08-25
  • reviews1★Will be one of the 5 worst bus journeys I've experienced. I had purchased an online ticket and was seated in the middle back row. Online usually get priority seating. The journey took 5 hours instead of 4. We had an unofficial stop and not kept informed by the driver as to the reason. The air con was non existent, with no toilet on board I refrained from drinking but as a result experienced heat stroke from the lack of air. If buses do not come equipped with fully functioning air con then the buses should be fitted with windows that can be opened and closed2025-09-03
  • reviews1★Really disappointed. Late leaving both times we used them. Poor customer care. Also over 1 hour late getting to destination. Expected to get back from Saranda to Tirana at 13:50pm. No traffic and got back at 15:15. Missed by taxi as a result2025-09-18

  • reviews1★The worst bus ride of my life. The bus left Tirana almost 30 minutes late. The seats were extremely uncomfortable; they couldn't recline and there was no air conditioning. The bus stopped countless times; the driver even got off to eat for nearly 30 minutes, knowing he was running late. Finally, we arrived in Saranda almost an hour and a half late. Not recommended.2025-09-25

  • reviews1★Our bus was dripping water all over and we kept going on the entire journey from tirana to sarandë. The same bus went back to Tirana that night. I expect a refund or I won’t be travelling with gjirafa travel anymore. I can prove that with several videos.2026-05-19
  • reviews1★The esim didn't work and the QR code I received was "blank" (no URL embedded). There were no customer service on Sunday to help, I did send a WhatsApp message to the customer service number but didn't get a reply until 2 days later, and the agents' responses were completely useless, they just wanted to close the case and were not even keen to look into the core of the problem to help. I didn't get to activate the esim in the entire trip, it was a total waste of money, and at the end of trip I got no refund or proper help or whatsoever. I would ask everyone to avoid gjirafa!2026-05-29

  • reviews1★I took the bus Tirana-Saranda on 13 july 2026 at 9:45. It left perfectly in time, but we spent almost 6 hours instead of 4 as it was written on the ticket. The bus was travelling at 40km/h on a STRAIGHT street without any traffic and we was 1 hour and a half late to our check-in appointment for the hotel in Saranda. Hope I’ll get a refund, terrible experience.2026-07-18

The bus was really old and had outdated interior2026-08-30
  • reviews1★A very bad experience. The old bus, without seatbelts in all the seats, the chairs didn't recline because they were broken. They take people sitting in the aisle, there's no automatic ticket control with the QR code issued. They put us in separate seats even though we asked to go together. I do not recommend this company.2026-08-31
  • reviews1★I wouldn't recommend Albania to anyone, most of the people are unfriendly, trying to scam and just not worth your money. Go to Corfu and just go visit Sarande or any other place from there for 1 or 2 days max. Better to avoid Albania.2026-08-31

  • reviews2★Driver smoked on the bus.2025-05-23
  • reviews2★Cramped coach with no toilet, left us in the coach for an hour without AC running. The coach was an hour late into Saranda. The driver was angry and seemed to be annoyed at two separate people who needed to stop for the bathroom, yet had no problem stopping to pick up and drop friends on the way who were not paying. We stopped once in 2 hours which was reasonable for us. But people have different needs. The website wasn’t really clear about where to find Tisa Travel. Cost of travel is good, but comfort and experience not so good.2025-06-02
  • reviews2★The booking process was totally fine and efficient thru the website. The actual journey was dreadful. Billed as 4 hours with 15 minute stop it was almost 6. Several extra stops where we sat in the bus waiting for not sure what, and the aircon was not very effective especially on the random 30 min stop. Seriously sweaty. Then an issue with an extremely drunk and stoned Frenchman, a fight nearly broke out on several occasions. He was unsafe to remain on the bus but they just shouted and swore at him, should have thrown him off at the pit stop. Not a good experience at all.2025-06-14

  • reviews2★The travel was not pleasent at all. We arrived 1h after the arrival time, there was no ac inside the bus (at least not enought for the 40 degrees we experienced) and in a total of more then 5h we stoped just once to use the bathroom.2025-07-22
  • reviews2★Very disorganized staff, for something so simple to get people on the bus it turned into chaos.It reallt only takes 1 switched-on person to explain to all the tourists who do not speak the language that their seat number is on the ticket.It took ages for people to understand what was happening onboard.Something that could have been done in 2 minutes with anyone from Girafa Travels making a little effort and in the end it is in the benefit of the bus driver to leave on time.Thank you2025-08-01
  • reviews2★There is still a lot to do, starting from building a proper bus terminal, setting up a proper ticket office in Tirana at the station, having better quality buses and drivers that are maybe not smoking during the journey and yelling & swearing all the time. There were also some dangerous traffic situations which really scared me. The overall experience was unfortunately quite negative.2025-08-04
  • reviews2★Réservation des billets très intuitive très rapide. Aucun soucis. Cependant le transporteur est parti en retard et s’est arrêté toutes les heures ce qui fait que le voyage annoncé à 4h de durée en a en fait durer plus de 6h30 avec une climatisation ne fonctionnant pas correctement.

The drive back to Tirana was the worst thing Ive experienced, 5.5 hour drive instead of 4, no air conditioning, cramped in a mini van with a driver who was rude and did not speak English. He would pull over the side of road and smoke and then not answer any questions we had, the van was like a sauna and we nearly missed our flight.2026-05-26

A total mess2026-06-04

The man in the ticket office said “it is not his f***ing problem” once on the bus 20 minutes into the journey they checked our tickets and my bag had ripped mine in half. He spoke very rude about us in Albanian and told me to get of the bus and I was not welcome. Bus was pulled over by the police and staff did not make anyone aware what was going on and why we stopped unexpectedly for half an hour on a full and hot bus for 5 hour journey2025-06-01

  • reviews3★First the 4 euros extra for booking are not so ideal. The bus station is not a bus station but a parking lot and it is not obvious where to go. It should be more explained if someone book online.not toilets on the bus for a 5 hours ride is also wild.2025-07-30

El trato de los conductores, de lo más prepotentes. La verdad que no elegiría Tisa nunca más. Nos dejaron el Sarande en una calle en el centro sin siquiera darnos alguna explicación. Tuvimos que sacar las valijas nosotros de adentro del bus. Una experiencia desastrosa.2025-09-08

  • reviews3★The return bus was terrible. It was a small van. It was completely full and I was squeezed into the back row. I felt very cramped between two big men. One man had a strong body odor. This lasted for five hours. It was torture. You need a bigger buses. Don't pack a lot of people into a van. I really wish Flix buses in Albania.2025-11-04
  • reviews3★Van was comfortable and we arrived close to our on time but the break was longer than driver said, he smoked while he drive and he yelled at us to get out of the bus and had no idea the bus was at the end. Also check in I had QR code and was told I needed my online receipt. Luckily I had it. Not very nice. A lot of frustrated yelling.2026-02-24
  • reviews3★The estimated travel time was not accurate, so for my trip to Tirana from Saranda I was late to my bus and missed my ticket slot. On the way to Saranda from Tirana it also took about two hours longer than expected. Driver from Saranda was smoking in the van the whole time.2026-03-22
  • reviews3★Buying tickets was the best part of the journey. The whole experience was less enjoyable. Printed Gjirafa tickets I should have exchanged to the local ticket in a small cabin at the station (which is an extra step in a process). The tickets told us to come 30 minutes before departure time, so we spent it in the heat, hiding in a shadow of the bus (there is no roof whatsoever). The vehicle floor was sticky, air conditioners almost didn’t work, so 4 hours of medium range suffering and we were at Saranda. Safely though, thanks to the driver. There was a sanitary stop in the middle of the journey which was nice, opportunity to buy water and clean toilets.2026-08-10

  • reviews4★The staff were helpful however we had to change to a smaller bus which was quite old and not very nice but then we had to change back to the bigger bus which was somewhat newer which I was happy about. Overall it was pretty good.2024-09-21
  • reviews4★It was great to have the opportunity to pay for the ticket online. More details about the procedure to verify the online ticket at the bus station would be very helpful2024-09-24

  • reviews4★The process went fairly smooth. There was a lot we didn’t know and we expected are large bus but the sprinter van was fine.2024-11-09
  • reviews4★the experience was good on the bus. I would recommend having signage at South and North terminal station. The only reason I found where to check in was because a staff member was standing there and asked me. Then he told me which direction to find the bus but it is so hectic at that station I think the buses also need better signage.2024-12-02
  • reviews4★Only positive impressions! I really liked everything! A couple of recommendations, though: • Don’t drive too fast, as it’s important to be as cautious as possible in the mountains; • Basic knowledge of English would be helpful for the drivers.2025-01-13
  • reviews4★All was very good!2025-01-18

  • reviews4★Good. But staff is not very friendly2025-04-30
  • reviews4★The driver was really rude, not friendly at all! Wanted to ask him to change the AC tempreture a bit higher, he pretended he can not READ and he sent me away. So the staff is definitely NOT a pleasent experience. He also didn’t mention where and WHEN will we stop, everyone were just waiting the bus to stop for a break (go to toilet, eat etc..) it would have been nice if the driver at the start of the journey could inform us about this.2025-05-21

  • reviews4★When we had a break, there was no information on how long. The journey was much longer than indicated.2025-06-20
  • reviews4★Onduidelijkheid bij vertrekpunt in Saranda. Geen communicatie. Medewerkers maken zich niet bekend. De organisatie is onherkenbaar, dragen geen dienstkleding. Spijkerbroek en T-shirt. Wie is wie/wat? Chauffeur rookt achter het stuur tijdens de rit, diverse keren. Geen communicatie tijdens een stop. Hoe lang blijven we bij het restaurant?2025-06-22
  • reviews4★Bus was quite warm, aircon didn‘t work too well. And if you‘re over 190cm - you simply dont fit in the seats. Luckily there were empty seats, so i could solve that Problem. But staff was nice, booking was easy, so all in all a good experience.2025-06-26

  • reviews4★Bussin löymisessä hankaluutta ja ohjattiin nopeampaan yhteyteen joka toi ongelmia. Pääsin kuitenkin perille 😊2025-10-13
  • reviews4★Journey was OK and without problem. The only one problem was at the beginning when I wasn't sure for what bus should I go (it was bus to Tirane).2025-10-15
  • reviews4★It was fine, even if we arrived a little behind the schedule.2025-10-16
  • reviews4★Small bus with no leg room. People jammed in with luggage in the aisles as not enough room in the back. Driver was good but arrived late. Not sure if this was related to the extra stops that were made. Made it safe and sound.2025-10-24
  • reviews4★Print the addresses of the offices/kiosks where you have to go to collect tickets on the electronic ticket confirmation (especially for Tirana North/South terminal as it is a very large area and very chaotic for people who are not used to it).2025-11-27
  • reviews4★The journey wasn’t bad but it would have been nice to have been informed that we were running late and expected time of arrival at Saranda2026-04-19
  • reviews4★The fee that Gjirafa takes is a bit high2026-04-26
  • reviews4★Ride was fine. Bus that I bought ticket for not showing up at all and having to stand and wait for the next one two hours later wasn't so cool.2026-05-04
  • reviews4★I booked my ride from tirana to Saranda and back, and overall it was a good experience. Though a little bit here and there, like the bus didn’t had proper working AC for the ride back, so was a bit hot. Good thing the weather was nice. The ride from tirana to Saranda was but the mini van was a bit dirty. But overall a good experience.2026-05-06
  • reviews4★Good experience overall2026-06-19
  • reviews4★Overall good experience, i think the prblem is the drivers never scan the wallet qr code but they want the email.2026-06-19
  • reviews4★The bus was very old, without toilet in a large journey and the aconditioned air insuficiente. It is not aprópiate to get tickets Edith the number of seats just in the ticket office ( we had just a qr )2026-06-21
  • reviews4★Globalement tout s'est très bien passé ! Le document fourni avec les informations de voyage que j'avais imprimé ne semblait pas toujours très clair pour les chauffeurs de navettes pour ou vers l'aéroport...2026-06-27
  • reviews4★Overall fine for the price. The aircon was not very efficient and although ok when cooler nearer the coast, leaving Tirana in 34/35 degrees was uncomfortable. This must be awful in August. The driver needs to be more assertive about explaining the length of break ( he was clearly very annoyed with the individuals who held up departure for the 2nd leg by 15+ minutes. Good for him, I would have gone without them!)2026-06-30
  • reviews4★We left Tirana with 15 minutes delay, we do not know why. It might help if the colleagues could speak English. The overall experience is OK.2026-07-07
  • reviews4★You could improve the buses, more technology like chargers!2026-07-15
  • reviews4★All good, in the beginning it was hot, but after the airco went on, it was alright2026-07-18

  • reviews4★It was a good ride and the driver tried to stop as I had to urgently pee, but I had to hold it for reallllyyy long!2026-08-01
  • reviews4★1) staff could be more polite and informative not in fighting mode. 2) travel destination could be more informative including breaking location. 3) Early seat selection could be initiated during the ticket booking in internet. 4) I would like to thank the bus driver. He was very kind and informative.2026-08-07
  • reviews4★It’s ok2026-08-12
  • reviews4★Everything went well. The travel was Way more longer because the traffic, you have to keep that ín mind.2026-08-13
  • reviews4★Quite good. Bus not really modern, no toilet and only one rest stop. But overall totally fine for the price.2026-08-14
  • reviews4★It should be possible to change the number of people, not just edit the names.2026-08-20
  • reviews4★The bus was extremely hot the first hour. It is not explained when purchased ticket that it is your seat number2026-08-21
  • reviews4★The booking process with Girafa was smooth and uncomplicated, but the actual bus operator wasn’t quite as good. Broken seats and chaos with seat alllocation. Still departed and arrived on-time though (within reasonable tolerance)2026-08-24
  • reviews4★Unfortunately, in retrospect, I don’t recommend the bus system in Albania. Private transfer is much better. But thank you Gjirafa for making it easy to at least get tickets.2026-08-25
  • reviews4★It was good2026-08-26
  • reviews4★Booking online was very easy. The bus however, was old & not very comfortable. Finding the bus at the station & checking in needs a better modern system.2026-08-30

  • reviews5★Your booking system is excellent. The bus company was not. The driver Smoking while driving Constantly using his phone, at times with both hands off the steering wheel and he exceeded the speed limit countless times. It was only because of warnings from the flashing lights of approaching vehicles he slowed down. The air conditioning on the bus was inadequate.2025-06-29
  • reviews5★Exceptional service and professionalism We traveled with Classic Company from Kopyevo to Ohrid, and everything was smooth, fast, and very comfortable. The night ride was handled by a highly professional driver who made the trip feel safe and easy. Our next trip was from Ohrid to Tirana, scheduled for 6 AM. Due to a language barrier with some of the staff, we accidentally boarded the wrong bus — we were told it was going to Tirana, but it turned out our actual bus was a different one. What happened next truly surprised us: the company arranged a private transfer just for the two of us. The car came all the way from their office (about 30 minutes from the border), picked us up, and drove us across the border into Albania and all the way to Tirana — a 3-hour trip! Possibly, no one else had booked that bus, but still — they didn’t cancel it. They honored our tickets and provided a magical level of service that we had never seen before. We are extremely grateful and impressed. Highly recommended!2025-06-30

  • reviews5★Thank you for an easy and smooth bus Journey to Sarande! I was able to purchase the ticket easily online. The staff at the bus station were helpful and friendly. I appreciated the bathroom and food stop along the way. The only addition would be changing ports on the bus for cell phones. Thank you again for the transport through beautiful Albanian countryside.

  • reviews1★reported thisThey didn’t let me on the bus and told me it was full even if I’ve already paid online with it so they gave me a ticket for the next one and then during the trip they told me to pay because it was another company2026-07-13
  • reviews2★reported thisWe booked online but we had no seats booked and we have to reach early to get a seat on bus which is not really helpful. Saw some of the passengers struggling also as they booked seats but were being almost harassed for not having a seat in person but they actually booked online and the bus personnel have no idea nor did they speak english. A total mess2026-06-04
  • reviews2★reported thisThe website itself is great. But 3 of us bought a ticket and the bus station refused to use our tickets and stated we need a physical copy in hand from the bus station, so we had to buy a second ticket2026-07-19
  • reviews1★Unfortunately there’s no 0 to select as it’s my score for this company. Staff 0 behaviour to treat customers, very rude and think we’re animals, no English at all. I got my tickets 3 weeks before my trip, due a problem with the taxi I arrived at bus station 10 min before to departure and the guy very rude simply told me there was only one seat left but I’ve bought 2. As I didn’t show up 30 min before they were sold all the tickets at moment in the bus station (???) and the only way to heading to Sardana is one of us seat on the floor during the trip of almost 4 hours!!!! It’s completely unacceptable, there’s no control about tickets, no security, no air conditioning, bus was messed of organisation, passagens discussing about seats as the info in the ticket was trrrible to understand as they mark with the pan (?), my seat in the ticket was 51 and the bus had only 49! The funny is that people who just bought tickets at bus station were seating and us who bought earlier to avoid problems seated on the floor, that’s disgusting! I will never recommend this company, better pay a little extra a rent a car or got a private van for groups. Avoid this company to preserve your mental health!2024-09-11
  • reviews1★I booked a bus through Gjirafa Travel, but the bus simply did not exist. I arrived at the station on time, but there was no bus, no driver, and no staff to assist me. I had to book another ticket last minute, which was frustrating and an unnecessary extra expense. I contacted customer service and requested a refund, but they never responded. Instead, they sent me a message asking me to rate my experience—so here it is: terrible service, zero reliability, and no customer support. I strongly advise against using this service unless you want to risk being stranded. I expect a proper response and a refund for the ticket I paid for.2025-03-11
  • reviews1★i wanted to change destination location, but i could not. I was only given the option to change time/date.. even though I purchased premium flex.2025-05-06
  • reviews1★Absolutely unreliable service and the worst travel experience. On our onward journey from Tirana to Sarande we were boarded on a old small coach that was not good for travel longer than 1-2 hours - it also broke on the way and we were delayed by over 1 hours to reach Sarande. I had booked return tickets and to my surprise I was told the bus is cancelled. I didn't get any notice, email or call from the agency or travel operator and was left without information in the bus station in Sarande. I have to book a private taxi at EUR 150 to travel to Tirana as I had my flight. The cancellation without even informing the client is against the rule and laws and I have raised this with their customer service without any resolution yet. Absolutely poor service and not something you can rely on2025-05-07

  • reviews1★Cogí el autobús de Sarande dirección a Tirana, ya tenía el ticket que lo compré a ustedes por internet, la salida del autobús de Sarande hacia TIRANA era a las 2 de la tarde del día 20 de Mayo. Pregunte al chico que estaba controlando los tickets de los viajeros que si podía darme un asiento un poco más adelante, ya que mi asiento era atrás del todo y yo me mareo y lo paso mal, la respuesta de este chico, con muy mala educación y muy alterado me contestó que cogiera un Taxi si me marehaba, me cuesta entender que personas como este chico puedan trabajar de esa forma nada de respeto hacia el viajero, cuando tiene que dar ejemplo de educación y saber estar, porque estás personas no hacen bien su trabajo y dan muy mala imagen al turismo con sus comportamientos, sinceramente llevó muy mala imagen del trato que se medio en esta Compañía por parte de esta persona que trabaja con ustedes, no llevo un buen recuerdo2025-05-22
  • reviews1★The men running the North-South terminal were awful and lazy, except the younger one. The one sitting in the booth selling tickets was the worst. Busy talking to each other, fighting, and arguing instead of keeping the area clean and running on time. Not even a trash can for customers. Bus left an hour late. Aircon never got cold. Stopped halfway for a break. Stopped again to get a new tire, but did not tell customers why they stopped.2025-05-26

  • reviews1★Musica ad alto volume per tutta la durata del viaggio e alla richiesta di abbassare è stato risposto di no, in malo modo,da parte del conducente.2025-06-03
  • reviews1★Yesterday at 4:30 pm, we took the AB979TK bus. The driver and his assistant played loud music from the moment we got off. 5 or 6 people repeatedly asked him to turn it down. When he didn't, I politely asked him to turn it down because it was becoming unbearable. He said no and laughed with his colleague. I decided to take a picture of both of us to post on social media because we couldn't believe the lack of respect. When I took the picture, he hit my hand and knocked my phone to the floor. It's worth remembering that he was the one driving in charge of more than 40 people. He still didn't turn the volume down. I don't understand how a company would hire such a disrespectful and violent person. I have a photo of both of us, from the bus with the license plate, and I will also post my feedback on Google and social media. I'm sorry for hiring people with such rudeness!2025-06-03
  • reviews1★It is stated on the website that non-flexible booking can be cancelled within one hour of booking but this feature is not working. I made an error with the time and could not cancel a booking immediately after. My money gone and no means of calling this company.2025-06-05
  • reviews1★The trip both ways was terrible. The drivers sell extra tickets and we were sitting on stairs. Ensure electronic check in, that people after having bought the tickets shouldn’t stand in the queue to make a check in the office 30 minutes befire - it’s old school in 21 century! You have foreigners coming from around the globe, please adapt the technologies to attract good tourists, that are ready to travel and pay in your country. Shame!2025-06-09

  • reviews1★We got two tickets for our round-trip bus journey from Tirana to Saranda (4 hrs bus ride each way) and it was awful. The bus was dirty, the air conditioning wasn’t working despite the high temperatures (making the ride very uncomfortable) and the bathroom was out of service. On both the outbound and return trips, the bus was delayed by over an hour. When we politely asked the staff if there was a problem, we were treated rudely and our concerns were dismissed. NOT RECOMMENDED.2025-06-28

  • reviews1★We took a bus from Tirana to Sarande on Friday 25th July 2025. That was the worse experience ever in any country, 41 degrees Celsius and no air conditioning. Everyone was close to fainting. Whole journey was supposed to finish in 4 hours and 15 minutes, we arrived after 6 hours. I would never go again with gjirafa travel.2025-07-26

  • reviews1★The air con was so bad it hardly worked and the driver played music loudly the whole time when people were trying to sleep. The bus was also delayed because some girls were annoyed they couldn’t sit together so the driver tried to ask people to move and rearrange seats when people had gotten there early to get seats. Not a great experience2025-08-01

  • reviews1★I had a terrible experience with this agency. I booked a ticket from Bunece to Tirane, but the bus was delayed by more than 30 minutes. When I tried to contact the agency for information, the person I spoke with was extremely rude and offensive just because I asked for details about the arrival time. Completely unacceptable behavior. I will never use this agency again.2025-08-25
  • reviews1★Will be one of the 5 worst bus journeys I've experienced. I had purchased an online ticket and was seated in the middle back row. Online usually get priority seating. The journey took 5 hours instead of 4. We had an unofficial stop and not kept informed by the driver as to the reason. The air con was non existent, with no toilet on board I refrained from drinking but as a result experienced heat stroke from the lack of air. If buses do not come equipped with fully functioning air con then the buses should be fitted with windows that can be opened and closed2025-09-03
  • reviews1★We arrived first at the bus station and they gave us the last seat and they overbooked trip and they almost offer me the seat beside driver. We felt like discriminated because we’re the only Asian in the trip.2025-09-18
  • reviews1★Really disappointed. Late leaving both times we used them. Poor customer care. Also over 1 hour late getting to destination. Expected to get back from Saranda to Tirana at 13:50pm. No traffic and got back at 15:15. Missed by taxi as a result2025-09-18
  • reviews1★Toilet was locked(didnt work probably). A/C didnt work throughout the way. The bus was overfilled and few people were standing. Seats doesnt have pockets for personal stuff(like phone and water). Radio above our head was playing some indian or albanina folklore music loudly even when we tried to sleep.2025-09-22
  • reviews1★We need more location details for exp not north or south terminal..address details properly pls2025-09-24
  • reviews1★The worst bus ride of my life. The bus left Tirana almost 30 minutes late. The seats were extremely uncomfortable; they couldn't recline and there was no air conditioning. The bus stopped countless times; the driver even got off to eat for nearly 30 minutes, knowing he was running late. Finally, we arrived in Saranda almost an hour and a half late. Not recommended.2025-09-25
  • reviews1★He organizado un viaje de dos semanas confiando en los buses de sus rutas y me han hecho perder dinero. En su web tienen la ruta Sarandë - Korce y allí me han dicho que ya no existe. Tuve que cambiar todo mi viaje.2026-04-05
  • reviews1★To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to formally raise a complaint about the deeply unacceptable experience I had on 26/04/2026 with Gjirafa Travel, and I want to be very clear: I am not satisfied with a 1-star rating alone — I want a full refund, and I want this matter taken seriously. I booked my seat well in advance. This was not a last-minute reservation — I planned ahead, paid the full fare, and had every reasonable expectation that my seat would be held for me. On the day of travel, I encountered a delay and, knowing I would arrive approximately 10 minutes late, I attempted to call ahead and inform your team. Nobody answered. Not once. I arrived at 3:50 PM. My seat had been given away to another passenger. Let me be direct about what happened next: I was forced to sit on the floor of the bus. On the floor. After paying full price for a reserved seat. This is not a minor inconvenience — it is a complete failure of your basic obligation as a transport provider. A booked seat is a contract. You gave it away while I was actively trying to reach you. To make matters significantly worse, your staff’s behaviour toward me was rude and dismissive. Not apologetic. Not solution-oriented. Rude. When a paying customer is already in a difficult situation, that is the moment your staff should step up — and they did the opposite. I want to be very clear about what I am asking for: 1. A full refund for this journey, given that the service I paid for was not provided. 2. A written explanation of how my pre-booked seat was given to another passenger despite my prior contact attempt. 3. A formal response to the conduct of the staff member(s) involved. I gave this experience 1 star on your feedback platform, and I will not be stopping there. If this is not resolved promptly and to a satisfactory standard, I will be escalating this complaint to the relevant consumer protection authority and leaving detailed public reviews across every platform available to me. I have screenshots, records of my attempted call, and the timestamp of my arrival. I expect a response within 5 working days.2026-04-26

  • reviews1★Our bus was dripping water all over and we kept going on the entire journey from tirana to sarandë. The same bus went back to Tirana that night. I expect a refund or I won’t be travelling with gjirafa travel anymore. I can prove that with several videos.2026-05-19

There were no customer service on Sunday to help, I did send a WhatsApp message to the customer service number but didn't get a reply until 2 days later, and the agents' responses were completely useless, they just wanted to close the case and were not even keen to look into the core of the problem to help. I didn't get to activate the esim in the entire trip, it was a total waste of money, and at the end of trip I got no refund or proper help or whatsoever. I would ask everyone to avoid gjirafa!2026-05-29
  • reviews1★Yes, the first bus from the two tickets I bought from you guys. The first bus was two hours late getting there from what the ticket says. I was supposed to arrive at two and catch another bus at four, but we didn’t arrive till pretty much four So I missed the second bus and had to pay for a Expensive ass taxi2026-06-02

  • reviews1★I took the bus Tirana-Saranda on 13 july 2026 at 9:45. It left perfectly in time, but we spent almost 6 hours instead of 4 as it was written on the ticket. The bus was travelling at 40km/h on a STRAIGHT street without any traffic and we was 1 hour and a half late to our check-in appointment for the hotel in Saranda. Hope I’ll get a refund, terrible experience.2026-07-18
  • reviews1★We spent the whole journey being anxious because the driver was going so fast through the mountain roads. We were so relieved to arrive safely.2026-07-22
  • reviews1★Weather was really hot and the bus air conditioner was not working. So it made the whole trip really exhausting and we were wondering at some point if we are going to make it all the way to Sarande or not.2026-08-01

  • reviews1★Arrived and they had already sold our seat to another customer so we have to spend €70 for another bus ticket on another private provider. Rude customer service and would not recommend purchasing a ticket ahead of time as it means nothing to them. They will sell the seats either way. Purc2026-08-06

  • reviews1★I tried to talk to the agency about my delays that made me miss one of my bus connections but instead of looking for a solution I was told multiples time that I can neither get a partial refund nor reuse my ticket.

  • reviews1★The bus had about one hour delay so we couldn‘t catch out transfer so we had to pay twice for another bus nobody could help us there and the second bus had a delay of about three hours due technical issues and we had no air conditioning like promised the driver was extremly unprofessional and was on his phone the whole ride. The bus was really old and had outdated interior2026-08-30
  • reviews1★A very bad experience. The old bus, without seatbelts in all the seats, the chairs didn't recline because they were broken. They take people sitting in the aisle, there's no automatic ticket control with the QR code issued. They put us in separate seats even though we asked to go together. I do not recommend this company.2026-08-31
  • reviews1★I wouldn't recommend Albania to anyone, most of the people are unfriendly, trying to scam and just not worth your money. Go to Corfu and just go visit Sarande or any other place from there for 1 or 2 days max. Better to avoid Albania.2026-08-31
  • reviews2★Air conditioning often too low or turned off...too hot inside the bus,expecially at the last seats.2024-09-15
  • reviews2★Driver smoked on the bus.2025-05-23
  • reviews2★Cramped coach with no toilet, left us in the coach for an hour without AC running. The coach was an hour late into Saranda. The driver was angry and seemed to be annoyed at two separate people who needed to stop for the bathroom, yet had no problem stopping to pick up and drop friends on the way who were not paying. We stopped once in 2 hours which was reasonable for us. But people have different needs. The website wasn’t really clear about where to find Tisa Travel. Cost of travel is good, but comfort and experience not so good.2025-06-02
  • reviews2★The booking process was totally fine and efficient thru the website. The actual journey was dreadful. Billed as 4 hours with 15 minute stop it was almost 6. Several extra stops where we sat in the bus waiting for not sure what, and the aircon was not very effective especially on the random 30 min stop. Seriously sweaty. Then an issue with an extremely drunk and stoned Frenchman, a fight nearly broke out on several occasions. He was unsafe to remain on the bus but they just shouted and swore at him, should have thrown him off at the pit stop. Not a good experience at all.2025-06-14
  • reviews2★It is really annoying that you don't answer to messages to the WhatsApp you we're giving on your website. And on the Website, the schedule is not right.2025-07-06
  • reviews2★The landscape was great, but not the ride. We arrived 1h late, and no one explained us why (it took 5h to go from Tirana to Sarandë). Luckily they had AC tho it didn't work a lot.2025-07-06
  • reviews2★The travel was not pleasent at all. We arrived 1h after the arrival time, there was no ac inside the bus (at least not enought for the 40 degrees we experienced) and in a total of more then 5h we stoped just once to use the bathroom.2025-07-22
  • reviews2★Very disorganized staff, for something so simple to get people on the bus it turned into chaos.It reallt only takes 1 switched-on person to explain to all the tourists who do not speak the language that their seat number is on the ticket.It took ages for people to understand what was happening onboard.Something that could have been done in 2 minutes with anyone from Girafa Travels making a little effort and in the end it is in the benefit of the bus driver to leave on time.Thank you2025-08-01
  • reviews2★There is still a lot to do, starting from building a proper bus terminal, setting up a proper ticket office in Tirana at the station, having better quality buses and drivers that are maybe not smoking during the journey and yelling & swearing all the time. There were also some dangerous traffic situations which really scared me. The overall experience was unfortunately quite negative.2025-08-04
  • reviews2★Réservation des billets très intuitive très rapide. Aucun soucis. Cependant le transporteur est parti en retard et s’est arrêté toutes les heures ce qui fait que le voyage annoncé à 4h de durée en a en fait durer plus de 6h30 avec une climatisation ne fonctionnant pas correctement. Bref déçu du transporteur2025-08-11
  • reviews2★The A/C was not good, it was very very hot2025-08-11
  • reviews2★The tisa travel tirana to sarande bus service was appalling. The service was supposed to take 4 hours 15 minutes. It actually took over 5 hours 30 mins, with the driver making numerous unscheduled stops to collect/drop-off items. He also used his mobile phone regularly while driving, including whole going through mountain passes with sheer drops.2025-08-21

  • reviews2★Our bus broke down half way from Tirana to Saranda. We were waiting 2.5h and no information about what was the problem or how long we would need to wait. Its annoying arrive that late to the destination but a bit information could have lighten up a bit2025-09-17
  • reviews2★Yesterday took the bus from Tirana to Saranda. We arrived approx 16:15 compare to the schedule which was 14:00 arrival... no information was about it, nor about the stops along the road... There was no toilet on the bus which is ok, but there was an infornation on this page that it would be.2025-10-14

  • reviews2★Horrible bus experience2026-04-01
  • reviews2★It was 31 degrees on the bus and there was no air conditioning- it either didn’t work or they chose not to turn it on2026-04-21
  • reviews2★The bus ride down to Sarande was great, good information from the bus driver, safe driving and comfortable air conditioning vehicle. The drive back to Tirana was the worst thing Ive experienced, 5.5 hour drive instead of 4, no air conditioning, cramped in a mini van with a driver who was rude and did not speak English. He would pull over the side of road and smoke and then not answer any questions we had, the van was like a sauna and we nearly missed our flight.2026-05-26
  • reviews2★Got us from A to B pretty much on time. Staff were helpful enough and not rude. The bus was a bit run down with broken seats etc. The main problem was the AC was very poor which made the journey a little unpleasant.2026-06-15

  • reviews3★Goof2024-09-02
  • reviews3★The bus was very old, filthy and generally very uncomfortable - I have bruises on my legs from the seat pressing into them, plus if anyone reclines at all then there is no space at all. Also, the bus stopped far too many times, which was annoying. Multiple times they picked up people, even though there were no seats available, so those people ended up standing in the aisles imposing on the original passenger's space. The multiple stops seemed totally unnecessary too, turning a 4 hour trip (which could probably be 3) into a 5.5 hour trip. It was also almost thirty mins late departing from the original station in Tirana.2024-09-04
  • reviews3★The driver made multiple unscheduled stops. I arrived at my location and hour later than the time that was recorded. There was no communication from the driver about the stops and everyone started to get off the bus before the final stop without warning2024-09-05
  • reviews3★El chófer manejaba mut rápido2024-09-05

  • reviews3★The driver stopped the van for a long break. He also picked up parts and delivered them to businesses on his route. The caused us to be late to our destination.2025-01-15
  • reviews3★The buses are quite outdated, but more importantly they are often not clean. Especially the windows where people rest their heads, filthy!2025-04-15
  • reviews3★The bus company were very rude. Our taxi was late so we did not get there until 5 minutes prior to departure. The man in the ticket office said “it is not his f***ing problem” once on the bus 20 minutes into the journey they checked our tickets and my bag had ripped mine in half. He spoke very rude about us in Albanian and told me to get of the bus and I was not welcome. Bus was pulled over by the police and staff did not make anyone aware what was going on and why we stopped unexpectedly for half an hour on a full and hot bus for 5 hour journey2025-06-01
  • reviews3★Ok ,should be better aircondition2025-06-05
  • reviews3★Although the bus left on time it was delayed on both trips. I wish it would have been cleaner. Also, would have appreciated if the driver would inform the passengers if an unexpected stop had to be made or the break duration half way through the trip.2025-06-15
  • reviews3★Bus was old and smelly and the air con didn’t really work.2025-07-04
  • reviews3★The journey was longer than expected, both ways so it should be calculate that way. (5 hours instead if 4) but overall it was Okay2025-07-14
  • reviews3★I rode a bus from Tirana to Sarande. The staff was rude, the bus was late leaving and 2 hours late arriving, it was hot, cramped, and they didn't stop for FOUR hours to let us use a bathroom. So not the best experience but it got us to where we needed to go so that's a plus.2025-07-29
  • reviews3★First the 4 euros extra for booking are not so ideal. The bus station is not a bus station but a parking lot and it is not obvious where to go. It should be more explained if someone book online.not toilets on the bus for a 5 hours ride is also wild.2025-07-30
  • reviews3★Bus clean and confortable but tirana to saranda took over 5:30 hours instead of 4, and no charging station for phones. the delay made the journey really hard to bear.2025-08-06
  • reviews3★Generally positive, but the bus arrived to Saranda an hour later than promised.2025-08-06
  • reviews3★Too noisy, air conditioning does not work well, the trip is too long. No toilets in the bus is really hard and no information about the stop.2025-08-08
  • reviews3★Shouting between staff and staff and customer2025-08-19
  • reviews3★El bus era muy incómodo, mal mantenido, la suspensión inexistente. Cada bache que tomaba se sentía en los riñones. El aire acondicionado deficiente, la limpieza nula. El trato de los conductores, de lo más prepotentes. La verdad que no elegiría Tisa nunca más. Nos dejaron el Sarande en una calle en el centro sin siquiera darnos alguna explicación. Tuvimos que sacar las valijas nosotros de adentro del bus. Una experiencia desastrosa.2025-09-08
  • reviews3★The bus started off warm and progressively got way too warm throughout the journey. The toilet on board also didn’t work but it was efficient with getting us there and was very cheap2025-09-11
  • reviews3★The bus was scheduled to depart at 16:00 and the driver advised us to go there at 15:30. We did as we suggested but the bus eventually departed at 16:20.2025-09-21
  • reviews3★Too much stops in the middle2025-10-12
  • reviews3★The return bus was terrible. It was a small van. It was completely full and I was squeezed into the back row. I felt very cramped between two big men. One man had a strong body odor. This lasted for five hours. It was torture. You need a bigger buses. Don't pack a lot of people into a van. I really wish Flix buses in Albania.2025-11-04
  • reviews3★Van was comfortable and we arrived close to our on time but the break was longer than driver said, he smoked while he drive and he yelled at us to get out of the bus and had no idea the bus was at the end. Also check in I had QR code and was told I needed my online receipt. Luckily I had it. Not very nice. A lot of frustrated yelling.2026-02-24
  • reviews3★The estimated travel time was not accurate, so for my trip to Tirana from Saranda I was late to my bus and missed my ticket slot. On the way to Saranda from Tirana it also took about two hours longer than expected. Driver from Saranda was smoking in the van the whole time.2026-03-22
  • reviews3★Buying tickets was the best part of the journey. The whole experience was less enjoyable. Printed Gjirafa tickets I should have exchanged to the local ticket in a small cabin at the station (which is an extra step in a process). The tickets told us to come 30 minutes before departure time, so we spent it in the heat, hiding in a shadow of the bus (there is no roof whatsoever). The vehicle floor was sticky, air conditioners almost didn’t work, so 4 hours of medium range suffering and we were at Saranda. Safely though, thanks to the driver. There was a sanitary stop in the middle of the journey which was nice, opportunity to buy water and clean toilets.2026-08-10
  • reviews3★The quality of the buses could be improved. We were unable to adjust our seats and the air conditioning was not appropriate. I was also concerned to see the driver smoking while driving, as this raised safety concerns.2026-08-11
  • reviews3★This is our first time with this company… C’était notre première fois. Nous devions arriver à 12:45… et sommes arrivés à 2:23….2026-08-12
  • reviews3★So it a bus I know but the orginizer gave the same buss seat to three people including me then he put me in a very bad seat, the air conditioner was extremely bad it was a nightmare for the journey between Durres and salande2026-08-24
  • reviews4★Departure was on time! The break was a little bit too long in our opinion. So at the end we weren't on time in Saranda. The driver was good and we had a ventilated vehicle.2024-08-25
  • reviews4★Decent enough booking process. Departure and arrival times ought to be more accurate.2024-09-12
  • reviews4★Had to change bus right before start after sitting in another one for about one hour, staff could be more polite2024-09-14
  • reviews4★The staff were helpful however we had to change to a smaller bus which was quite old and not very nice but then we had to change back to the bigger bus which was somewhat newer which I was happy about. Overall it was pretty good.2024-09-21

  • reviews4★The process went fairly smooth. There was a lot we didn’t know and we expected are large bus but the sprinter van was fine.2024-11-09
  • reviews4★the experience was good on the bus. I would recommend having signage at South and North terminal station. The only reason I found where to check in was because a staff member was standing there and asked me. Then he told me which direction to find the bus but it is so hectic at that station I think the buses also need better signage.2024-12-02
  • reviews4★Only positive impressions! I really liked everything! A couple of recommendations, though: • Don’t drive too fast, as it’s important to be as cautious as possible in the mountains; • Basic knowledge of English would be helpful for the drivers.2025-01-13

  • reviews4★The driver was really rude, not friendly at all! Wanted to ask him to change the AC tempreture a bit higher, he pretended he can not READ and he sent me away. So the staff is definitely NOT a pleasent experience. He also didn’t mention where and WHEN will we stop, everyone were just waiting the bus to stop for a break (go to toilet, eat etc..) it would have been nice if the driver at the start of the journey could inform us about this.2025-05-21

  • reviews4★Seats too Small2025-08-25
  • reviews4★There were a few people who bought tickets and weren't able to get on the bus or were offered to sit on the floor (some did!) Is this double-selling or a faulty reservation system? Regardless this HAS to be fixed- btw these weren't $1-2 cheap tix but almost $20 (which can get me from DC to NYC). Once we got on the bus the ride was alright, AC was working and all was good...until the bus side panel holding all the suitcases flew open and a bunch of luggage (including mine) went flying down the road. This caused an almost 2 hour delay though thankfully there were no injuries or accidents beyond 1 destroyed and 1 lost suitcase. Girafa: make sure the buses have enough seats for all of us and are operationally sound...2025-08-25

  • reviews4★Print the addresses of the offices/kiosks where you have to go to collect tickets on the electronic ticket confirmation (especially for Tirana North/South terminal as it is a very large area and very chaotic for people who are not used to it).2025-11-27

Though a little bit here and there, like the bus didn’t had proper working AC for the ride back, so was a bit hot. Good thing the weather was nice.

  • reviews4★Overall fine for the price. The aircon was not very efficient and although ok when cooler nearer the coast, leaving Tirana in 34/35 degrees was uncomfortable. This must be awful in August. The driver needs to be more assertive about explaining the length of break ( he was clearly very annoyed with the individuals who held up departure for the 2nd leg by 15+ minutes. Good for him, I would have gone without them!)2026-06-30

  • reviews5★Your booking system is excellent. The bus company was not. The driver Smoking while driving Constantly using his phone, at times with both hands off the steering wheel and he exceeded the speed limit countless times. It was only because of warnings from the flashing lights of approaching vehicles he slowed down. The air conditioning on the bus was inadequate.2025-06-29
  • reviews5★Exceptional service and professionalism We traveled with Classic Company from Kopyevo to Ohrid, and everything was smooth, fast, and very comfortable. The night ride was handled by a highly professional driver who made the trip feel safe and easy. Our next trip was from Ohrid to Tirana, scheduled for 6 AM. Due to a language barrier with some of the staff, we accidentally boarded the wrong bus — we were told it was going to Tirana, but it turned out our actual bus was a different one. What happened next truly surprised us: the company arranged a private transfer just for the two of us. The car came all the way from their office (about 30 minutes from the border), picked us up, and drove us across the border into Albania and all the way to Tirana — a 3-hour trip! Possibly, no one else had booked that bus, but still — they didn’t cancel it. They honored our tickets and provided a magical level of service that we had never seen before. We are extremely grateful and impressed. Highly recommended!2025-06-30

It was great to have a stop along the way to grab some coffee and stretch our legs. Overall, everything was very good. The driver drove smoothly, so we didn't get carsick.2026-08-13

10 riders paid for guaranteed seats but had to stand or sit on the floor for journeys up to 5 hours because the bus was overbooked; some report no explanation or response when they complained. We are losing customers to competitors, facing legal reports to Albanian authorities, and selling a service we cannot deliver.

  • reviews1★reported thisWorst experience ever. I will sue the company. I had to travel sitting on the bus floor2024-09-01
  • reviews1★reported thisThey didn’t explain me well where to go or what to do. Also they made me move from my seat to leave to someone else without explanation.2024-10-09
  • reviews1★reported thisNever had anything like this before, first the driver tells me that it’s fool, although i made my booking days in advance, he made me sit in a stool against any safety policy and client confort, i travel for 5h grabbing anywhere i could to stay safe and moving to relieve my back pain. I don’t wish this to anybody2025-05-18
  • reviews1★reported thisAwful service. The website makes it look like modern coaches, possibly with toilets and at least decent air conditioning. Instead this was an old coach with terrible air conditioning. Not only that but there were a good 15 people standing the aisle for most of the journey. So dangerous and surely illegal. I didn't take the return journey and instead hired a taxi at great expense to avoid this horrendous bus. Never again.2025-07-08
  • reviews1★reported thisVoyage dans le car debout 3h alors que j’ai pris en ligne le billet et c’était écrit « place assise garantie », on nous a pris pour des pigeons, des personnes sont montées alors qu’ils avaient pas de billet, pas de contrôle bref organisation médiocre2025-09-06
  • reviews1★reported thisHorrible experience!! I reached out to you via WhatsApp with no response. Your website declares guaranteed seat when I bought on your platform, yet the bus was way overbooked. I had to stand the entire 5 hour drive. There was probably 10-15 people standing. Some standing down in the back door stoop while the driver drove with the door open. Very unsafe, very uncomfortable and definitely not what I paid for. Me and 1 of my children had to stand for a long bus ride through the mountains. And then no response from you when I reached out!! Yeah, never will I use your platform again. I am currently in the process of filing a report with the Albanian travel authority regarding the unsafe conditions and will report you as well for the blatant false claims of having a guaranteed seat. I have plenty of pictures of this overbooked and over crowded bus. Safety of your customers obviously means nothing!2025-09-13
  • reviews1★reported thisIt was awful and we sat on the floor the whole time and it was two hours late2026-06-11
  • reviews2★reported thisThe driver was making a lot of stops so that means that is not a direct bus and instead of arriving and 6:40 we arrived 2 hours late, also the wanted me to take a sit in the part of the stairs of the bus when I obviously paid a sit I will never recommend this because in the website you don’t specify2025-07-05
  • reviews2★reported thisI paid for a guaranteed seat ticket in advance, from Tirana to Himarë, got to the terminal 15 minutes early, and the bus was full. They made me sit on the floor, and continued to cram ppl in the whole way there. The bus which was supposed to be 2 1/2 hours total, was 5 1/2! Not direct like it says, as it stops for anyone who flags it down. Props to them for giving so many ppl a ride at least…2026-06-18
  • reviews3★reported thisBus delayed, driver could have been friendlier, bus seemed to have been overbooked as one passenger didn’t have a seat2026-07-30
  • reviews1★Loud music, dripping air conditioner and macho staff2024-09-04
  • reviews1★The air conditioner was not working at all, making the entire trip a complete nightmare. Additionally, the driver did not announce the stops, so if you don't have internet access to track each stop he made, you could easily end up lost.2025-04-29
  • reviews1★It was a very Bad experience, since we all (8people) wanted for the bus for which we has already paid and no driver showed up. So I expect from you to transfer the money back to my account. I and all the other 7 people had to pay 2 private taxis to get to Himare!2025-05-02
  • reviews1★Horrible ride no ac it was like 35 degrees in the back complete catastrophe2025-05-08
  • reviews1★Driver was driving dangerously, constantly texting and scanning QR codes whilst driving. He had several phone calls where he was shouting in Albanian. The arrival time was delayed by over 1.5 hours because of his poor driving and the rest stop which was supposed to be 10 minutes but turned out to be 45. Terrible experience. Rudest driver I have ever met. I booked the bus back to the airport but will pay extra for a taxi instead. I’m going to leave 1 star review online to advise other tourists not to use this terrible service2025-07-20
  • reviews1★got sick, couldn't refund2025-08-14
  • reviews1★We were on a bus with no air conditioning, about 33 degrees outside and almost 40 degrees inside. It was an ordeal, suffering through the five-hour journey. This is UNACCEPTABLE. They can't provide service in those conditions. One girl had a panic attack from the heat. It's disrespectful to charge 15 euros per person per ride. It's disgusting to me that they're offering something like that.2025-08-18
  • reviews1★2 Hours of delay2025-08-18
  • reviews1★Your driver was very loud, appeared to be impatient and rude. I don't speak albanian so I can't be certain. His conversations were loud and argumentative. He spent the entire journey, approximately 4 hours, on his phone while driving around hairpin bends on the side of a mountain. He was face timing, shouting on his phone, texting on his phone while driving. I am visiting from the UK and wondered if I was actually going to make it home! He's an incredibly ignorant man who took no care of his passengers2025-09-13
  • reviews1★My bus never showed up and when I called the company they said the line didn’t exist2025-10-18
  • reviews1★When we got to the bus terminal, the space wasn’t clean and. it well organized. But the worst part is that the bus just wants functioning and they told us we had to wait till the next day to take a bus. We had obviously already paid but we’re not able to get in the bus. A group of us were all in the same bad situation with no other way to get to our destination. Neither Girafa or the bus agency gave any warning. They did not tell us in advance that there was a problem with the bus. We are going to demand a reimbursement.2026-06-03
  • reviews1★Arrival time was meant to be 10:40 and due to multiple stops in the middle of the journey it ended up being 12:20 - 1.5 hours extra2026-06-05
  • reviews1★I arrived at the bus station 20 minutes early and the bus already left. I had to pay 40 euros for a taxi to get to Himare. Now I am worried about making the bus back to Tirana and then taking a different bus to Prizren.2026-06-10
  • reviews1★My bus left 10mins early and I missed it, kindly reimbourse my money2026-06-13
  • reviews1★The bus never showed up and we weren’t ever notified by the booking service2026-07-06
  • reviews1★I strongly advise against traveling with Olgeno Travel. The bus was extremely old, and the air conditioning didn’t work, making the journey very uncomfortable. On top of that, the driver was very rude to the passengers throughout the trip. It was such a disappointing experience that, even though I had already paid for my return ticket with them, I chose not to use it and traveled back with Riviera instead. Riviera was far more professional, comfortable, and reliable, and I highly recommend them to anyone traveling between Tirana and Himarë. I would not use Olgeno Travel again.2026-08-03
  • reviews1★Journey Took twice as Long as descriped, Bus driver was very loud and the Bus barely had AC2026-08-04
  • reviews1★terrible, took three hours longer than expected over crowded and no AC2026-08-11
  • reviews1★Suffice it to say we would never take a bus ride like that again, nor recommend it to anybody else. The ride was way longer and rougher than we expected, with a surly bus driver.2026-08-27
  • reviews2★It says on the website and ticket that the trip Tirana-Himara is 3 hours, but it took 5 hours both ways.2025-06-02
  • reviews2★Die Fahrt von Tirana nach Himara sollte eigentlich 3 Stunden dauern, tatsächlich dauerte sie 5 Stunden. Der Bus war überfüllt, einige mitreisende mussten die Fahrt über stehen.2025-06-13
  • reviews2★The bus didn't leave on time. When it started after an hour, the driver had to fill up with gas and get some coffee. Then there were constant breaks; some passengers were dropped off directly at the hotel, some not. Instead of three hours, the journey took six hours. Pay ticket online is more expensive.2025-07-07
  • reviews2★The travel was supposed to be 3 h and 10 minutes, but ended up 5 hours. Bad seats, overfilled, so that more people say on the floor. Hardly no aircondition.2026-06-18
  • reviews2★please don‘t ask passengers to be early at South Parking… This is not a terminal!!! No waiting room, toiles, counter etc… One hour waiting in the bus, terrible heat, last 20 minutes only A C, with loud working motor of course. I had to drink more water, and asked for a toilet break 2 hours later, first driver information , was 5 minutes. Could have been waiting fifteen minutes but 30 was really hard! Zéro information about delay during the trip, to at least give your approximative arriving time 😟2026-06-21
  • reviews2★Driver left 35 after planned departure to fill two seats. Arrived 1.5 hours late to himare.2026-07-06
  • reviews2★Chaotic experience Bus broken toilet and aircon useless2026-07-07
  • reviews3★According to the scheduled arrival time the trip should have taken 3 hours and 10 minutes, but in reality it was 4 and a half hours. The timetable should be updated with realistic arrival times. Also, when going to Tirana, in Himare the bus stopped at a different location, not where it was stated on our ticket.2024-09-08
  • reviews3★Good that you have an overview in this platform of all the routes, however, bus lines can be late and there’s no info or whatsover on customer service line or telephone numbers on where to call to get more information about delays, cancellations and other topics2024-09-10
  • reviews3★bus took way longer than 3 hours like it states, you do this drive enough to know it takes longer than that so this should be updated as it’s misleading and people may have plans which would be missed due to how long it takes! also not guaranteed a seat which isn’t good on a long hot coach2025-06-18
  • reviews3★Overall it was good but many things could be improved like ac and planning more time for the journey since there’s construction and many stops along the way. Maybe add clearer indications at the bus station too.2025-08-08
  • reviews3★Bus was not good, drivers delayed the trip in over 2 hours. Hard to find the bus at an inexistent bus station2025-08-19
  • reviews3★The bus left 1h late and arrived at 4.30pm when it was meant to arrive at 1.40pm - 3h late!! The bus drive was fine but I missed the ongoing bus because we were so delayed.2025-08-28
  • reviews3★Nous sommes arrivés avec 2h de retard. Nous avons raté l'excursion que nous avions réservé.2025-10-14
  • reviews3★The coach did not have air-conditioning and did not stop at the bus station as expected so we missed our stop.2026-07-06
  • reviews3★Mainly, the driver let Himarë bound passengers off outside the town instead of in town. This may have been because the bus was an hour behind schedule.2026-07-31
  • reviews3★Good2026-08-01
  • reviews4★The bus was comfortable and left on time. However, the ride took longer than expected because the driver stopped many times for unclear reasons. It would be nice if he informed us about the reasons , and also would be nice to shout out the name of the place where we stopped, so we would know when to get out.2024-09-04

  • reviews4★Very easy to purchase and provided a QR code to give to the bus company upon arrival, but bit annoying I had to make a gjirafa account to view the tickets2025-08-26
  • reviews4★Booking was easy, showing the bus attendant the ticket was easy. However.. the bus area in Tirane is literally so gross; Trash is EVERYWHERE. The bus itself is old, not updated, and dirty. It said direct, which to me means no stops. We stopped to pick up numerous people along the way, which was efficient and quick, but not what was described. The ride itself wasn’t bad though. AC worked, seats reclined.2025-09-09

  • reviews4★Online booking was easy, the bus ride itself was pretty bad though…but this app works well and I would absolutely recommend it2026-06-11
  • reviews4★Overall not a bad experience. Booking was easy. However it was a bit confusing trying to find which bus to get on when departing Tirana as the bus station was simply a massive car park with different companies and busses everywhere. Bus left a little late as well and the journey took longer than expected. I do believe this is something you expect when travelling to Albania though so all part of the fun travelling experience!2026-06-14

  • reviews1★reported thisWhat a bad experience I had when I needed urgent help. None of the buses going to Durrës accepted tickets bought through Gjirafa. I had to pay again to go there and back. When I called and messaged Gjirafa to complain on WhatsApp, not only did they not respond till a day later, but they DID NOT help or offer a solution. What a disappointment my experience has been! And now I’m afraid of what’s going to happen because I had already purchased a ticket an online ticket with Gjirafa to go to Kosovo and I don’t want to have to pay for my ticket again.2025-06-30
  • reviews1★reported thisNon mi stavano validando il biglietto online, come se non fosse valido, mi volevano fare prendere l'autobus successivo solo per farmi pagare il prezzo ed il bus era strapieno oltremodo la sua capienza2026-08-17
  • reviews2★reported thisThe Durrës Plepat bus station is not near the city center, so we had to take a taxi to our hotel, which significantly increased our transportation costs (15 euros each way), even though there is a bus station in the city center. For the return trip, we departed from the city center station, but my online reservation wasn't accepted. Instead of paying 800 LEKE (8 euros) for a round trip for two using local transportation, with the online reservation (12 euros), the taxi fare (15 euros), and the return ticket price (4 euros), we spent 31 euros, almost four times as much. I am therefore very dissatisfied with my online reservation.2026-06-17
  • reviews4★reported thisThe website experience was good, but the money collector on the bus acted like he had never in his life heard of online ticket sales. Even when showing him my digital ticket, he was very keen on wanting me to pay via cash also. The bus was so bumpy, I had to buy dramamine the moment I got to Tirana.2025-08-30

  • reviews1★Good morning, On Friday my friends and I (attempted to) travel via your company and would like to bring to your attention several expensive errors on your website. The e-ticket you sent me (attached) contained this link to the coach departure location. This contradicts a different departure location given on the confirmation email, Garibaldi Square. We went to the former location, when in reality the coach left from Garibaldi Square. The return journey was no better. You sold me tickets for a 20:00 coach from Durres Plepat Station to Tirana that did not exist. I know this because my friends found the RikiTrans offices who apparently manage your coaches, and they told us the 20:00 coach runs only in the summer. Moreover, this seemed to be a frequent occurrence, because taxi drivers circled around Plepat Station knowing you frequently leave tourists stranded like this. We had to pay €35 for a taxi back to Tirana (plus the €6 for an alternative coach to Durres earlier that day). This is not just zero-star service, but non-existent service. I would like our €16.50 returned, for the coach there and back, for me and my two friends, plus your booking fee. Additionally, I would strongly, strongly advise you to correct the link on your e-tickets, and remove the non-existent 20:00 service from your website. It is highly unethical to claim there exists a 20:00 coach from Durres to Tirana, receive payment for it, then leave tourists stranded. Josh.2025-04-20
  • reviews1★No indication once or ever at the leaving point. No sign or bus stop indicated!! We had to pay for another ride since we couldn't find the transportation we booked online thru Gjirafa travel. So it was useless to use your platform. Also we order an eSIMcsrd by mistake which we couldn't use since our phones are not compatible and we couldn't get our money back! Where's the customer service here? I will definitely not recommend your platforme or services to anyone!2025-08-26
  • reviews1★Dear Gijrafa Travel, You sold me tickets for a trip that didn't happen. I bought a ticket from you for 7:00 PM, while the last bus from Tirana to Durres departed at 6:00 PM. As a result, I had no way to get back to Durres and was forced to take a taxi, which caused me a lot of stress and expense. I hope you will check and correct this error in your offer and, at the same time, refund me the money (€8.25) for the unrealized trip.

  • reviews1★reported thisThe men running the North-South terminal were awful and lazy, except the younger one. The one sitting in the booth selling tickets was the worst. Busy talking to each other, fighting, and arguing instead of keeping the area clean and running on time. Not even a trash can for customers. Bus left an hour late. Aircon never got cold. Stopped halfway for a break. Stopped again to get a new tire, but did not tell customers why they stopped.2025-05-26
  • reviews1★reported this**Very poor service** - Over books you and then move you into small vans or buses. - A/C don't work - No guidance - don't tell you if the break is 5 min or 15 mins Just chaos!!! -2025-06-22
  • reviews1★reported thisWe got two tickets for our round-trip bus journey from Tirana to Saranda (4 hrs bus ride each way) and it was awful. The bus was dirty, the air conditioning wasn’t working despite the high temperatures (making the ride very uncomfortable) and the bathroom was out of service. On both the outbound and return trips, the bus was delayed by over an hour. When we politely asked the staff if there was a problem, we were treated rudely and our concerns were dismissed. NOT RECOMMENDED.2025-06-28
  • reviews1★reported thisThe travel with Bus was just horrible and the experience was pathetic....AC do not work properly, seats are mess, no toilet in the bus... you could have charged 10 euros extra and could have given better bus service. It was like a punishment for me and my family to come to Albania...God help others who travel on this bus......2025-07-13
  • reviews1★reported thisAir conditioning is not strong enough. Bus broke down and caught fire. Hitch hiked to my destination.2025-07-16
  • reviews1★reported thisThe busses we use it 1990s model busses. Air ventilator is not functioning till the journey starts. Additionally, there is no facility in the bus station, nowhere to eat nowhere to drink. Can you imagine a bus station in the centre of capital without any facility? We experienced.2025-07-22
  • reviews1★reported thisBus too hot.2025-07-31
  • reviews1★reported thisThe air con was so bad it hardly worked and the driver played music loudly the whole time when people were trying to sleep. The bus was also delayed because some girls were annoyed they couldn’t sit together so the driver tried to ask people to move and rearrange seats when people had gotten there early to get seats. Not a great experience2025-08-01
  • reviews1★reported thisAC was so poor. Old bus in a bad condition. Started and Arrived much later then the scheldue. Not worth for the money2025-08-19
  • reviews1★reported thisToilet was locked(didnt work probably). A/C didnt work throughout the way. The bus was overfilled and few people were standing. Seats doesnt have pockets for personal stuff(like phone and water). Radio above our head was playing some indian or albanina folklore music loudly even when we tried to sleep.2025-09-22

  • reviews1★reported thisThe bus had about one hour delay so we couldn‘t catch out transfer so we had to pay twice for another bus nobody could help us there and the second bus had a delay of about three hours due technical issues and we had no air conditioning like promised the driver was extremly unprofessional and was on his phone the whole ride. The bus was really old and had outdated interior2026-08-30
  • reviews2★reported thisAir conditioning often too low or turned off...too hot inside the bus,expecially at the last seats.2024-09-15
  • reviews2★reported thisCramped coach with no toilet, left us in the coach for an hour without AC running. The coach was an hour late into Saranda. The driver was angry and seemed to be annoyed at two separate people who needed to stop for the bathroom, yet had no problem stopping to pick up and drop friends on the way who were not paying. We stopped once in 2 hours which was reasonable for us. But people have different needs. The website wasn’t really clear about where to find Tisa Travel. Cost of travel is good, but comfort and experience not so good.2025-06-02
  • reviews2★reported thisThe booking process was totally fine and efficient thru the website. The actual journey was dreadful. Billed as 4 hours with 15 minute stop it was almost 6. Several extra stops where we sat in the bus waiting for not sure what, and the aircon was not very effective especially on the random 30 min stop. Seriously sweaty. Then an issue with an extremely drunk and stoned Frenchman, a fight nearly broke out on several occasions. He was unsafe to remain on the bus but they just shouted and swore at him, should have thrown him off at the pit stop. Not a good experience at all.2025-06-14
  • reviews2★reported thisThe landscape was great, but not the ride. We arrived 1h late, and no one explained us why (it took 5h to go from Tirana to Sarandë). Luckily they had AC tho it didn't work a lot.2025-07-06
  • reviews2★reported thisThe travel was not pleasent at all. We arrived 1h after the arrival time, there was no ac inside the bus (at least not enought for the 40 degrees we experienced) and in a total of more then 5h we stoped just once to use the bathroom.2025-07-22
  • reviews2★reported thisRéservation des billets très intuitive très rapide. Aucun soucis. Cependant le transporteur est parti en retard et s’est arrêté toutes les heures ce qui fait que le voyage annoncé à 4h de durée en a en fait durer plus de 6h30 avec une climatisation ne fonctionnant pas correctement.

  • reviews2★reported thisGot us from A to B pretty much on time. Staff were helpful enough and not rude. The bus was a bit run down with broken seats etc. The main problem was the AC was very poor which made the journey a little unpleasant.2026-06-15

  • reviews3★reported thisThe bus company were very rude. Our taxi was late so we did not get there until 5 minutes prior to departure. The man in the ticket office said “it is not his f***ing problem” once on the bus 20 minutes into the journey they checked our tickets and my bag had ripped mine in half. He spoke very rude about us in Albanian and told me to get of the bus and I was not welcome. Bus was pulled over by the police and staff did not make anyone aware what was going on and why we stopped unexpectedly for half an hour on a full and hot bus for 5 hour journey2025-06-01
  • reviews3★reported thisBus was old and smelly and the air con didn’t really work.2025-07-04
  • reviews3★reported thisToo noisy, air conditioning does not work well, the trip is too long. No toilets in the bus is really hard and no information about the stop.2025-08-08
  • reviews3★reported thisEl bus era muy incómodo, mal mantenido, la suspensión inexistente. Cada bache que tomaba se sentía en los riñones. El aire acondicionado deficiente, la limpieza nula. El trato de los conductores, de lo más prepotentes. La verdad que no elegiría Tisa nunca más. Nos dejaron el Sarande en una calle en el centro sin siquiera darnos alguna explicación. Tuvimos que sacar las valijas nosotros de adentro del bus. Una experiencia desastrosa.2025-09-08
  • reviews3★reported thisThe bus started off warm and progressively got way too warm throughout the journey. The toilet on board also didn’t work but it was efficient with getting us there and was very cheap2025-09-11
  • reviews3★reported thisBuying tickets was the best part of the journey. The whole experience was less enjoyable. Printed Gjirafa tickets I should have exchanged to the local ticket in a small cabin at the station (which is an extra step in a process). The tickets told us to come 30 minutes before departure time, so we spent it in the heat, hiding in a shadow of the bus (there is no roof whatsoever). The vehicle floor was sticky, air conditioners almost didn’t work, so 4 hours of medium range suffering and we were at Saranda. Safely though, thanks to the driver. There was a sanitary stop in the middle of the journey which was nice, opportunity to buy water and clean toilets.2026-08-10
  • reviews3★reported thisSo it a bus I know but the orginizer gave the same buss seat to three people including me then he put me in a very bad seat, the air conditioner was extremely bad it was a nightmare for the journey between Durres and salande2026-08-24
  • reviews4★reported thisThe journey was longer than expected and the Air con not always working2025-07-25
  • reviews4★reported thisThe bus was very old, without toilet in a large journey and the aconditioned air insuficiente. It is not aprópiate to get tickets Edith the number of seats just in the ticket office ( we had just a qr )2026-06-21
  • reviews4★reported thisOverall fine for the price. The aircon was not very efficient and although ok when cooler nearer the coast, leaving Tirana in 34/35 degrees was uncomfortable. This must be awful in August. The driver needs to be more assertive about explaining the length of break ( he was clearly very annoyed with the individuals who held up departure for the 2nd leg by 15+ minutes. Good for him, I would have gone without them!)2026-06-30
  • reviews4★reported thisThe bus was extremely hot the first hour. It is not explained when purchased ticket that it is your seat number2026-08-21
  • reviews5★reported thisYour booking system is excellent. The bus company was not. The driver Smoking while driving Constantly using his phone, at times with both hands off the steering wheel and he exceeded the speed limit countless times. It was only because of warnings from the flashing lights of approaching vehicles he slowed down. The air conditioning on the bus was inadequate.2025-06-29
  • reviews5★reported thisThe bus ride was horrible because the air conditioning barely worked, but otherwise everything went smoothly. It was also nice that the bus stopped for a break so we could use the restroom and grab something from the shop.2026-07-21
  • reviews1★Unfortunately there’s no 0 to select as it’s my score for this company. Staff 0 behaviour to treat customers, very rude and think we’re animals, no English at all. I got my tickets 3 weeks before my trip, due a problem with the taxi I arrived at bus station 10 min before to departure and the guy very rude simply told me there was only one seat left but I’ve bought 2. As I didn’t show up 30 min before they were sold all the tickets at moment in the bus station (???) and the only way to heading to Sardana is one of us seat on the floor during the trip of almost 4 hours!!!! It’s completely unacceptable, there’s no control about tickets, no security, no air conditioning, bus was messed of organisation, passagens discussing about seats as the info in the ticket was trrrible to understand as they mark with the pan (?), my seat in the ticket was 51 and the bus had only 49! The funny is that people who just bought tickets at bus station were seating and us who bought earlier to avoid problems seated on the floor, that’s disgusting! I will never recommend this company, better pay a little extra a rent a car or got a private van for groups. Avoid this company to preserve your mental health!2024-09-11
  • reviews1★I booked a bus through Gjirafa Travel, but the bus simply did not exist. I arrived at the station on time, but there was no bus, no driver, and no staff to assist me. I had to book another ticket last minute, which was frustrating and an unnecessary extra expense. I contacted customer service and requested a refund, but they never responded. Instead, they sent me a message asking me to rate my experience—so here it is: terrible service, zero reliability, and no customer support. I strongly advise against using this service unless you want to risk being stranded. I expect a proper response and a refund for the ticket I paid for.2025-03-11
  • reviews1★i wanted to change destination location, but i could not. I was only given the option to change time/date.. even though I purchased premium flex.2025-05-06
  • reviews1★Absolutely unreliable service and the worst travel experience. On our onward journey from Tirana to Sarande we were boarded on a old small coach that was not good for travel longer than 1-2 hours - it also broke on the way and we were delayed by over 1 hours to reach Sarande. I had booked return tickets and to my surprise I was told the bus is cancelled. I didn't get any notice, email or call from the agency or travel operator and was left without information in the bus station in Sarande. I have to book a private taxi at EUR 150 to travel to Tirana as I had my flight. The cancellation without even informing the client is against the rule and laws and I have raised this with their customer service without any resolution yet. Absolutely poor service and not something you can rely on2025-05-07

  • reviews1★Cogí el autobús de Sarande dirección a Tirana, ya tenía el ticket que lo compré a ustedes por internet, la salida del autobús de Sarande hacia TIRANA era a las 2 de la tarde del día 20 de Mayo. Pregunte al chico que estaba controlando los tickets de los viajeros que si podía darme un asiento un poco más adelante, ya que mi asiento era atrás del todo y yo me mareo y lo paso mal, la respuesta de este chico, con muy mala educación y muy alterado me contestó que cogiera un Taxi si me marehaba, me cuesta entender que personas como este chico puedan trabajar de esa forma nada de respeto hacia el viajero, cuando tiene que dar ejemplo de educación y saber estar, porque estás personas no hacen bien su trabajo y dan muy mala imagen al turismo con sus comportamientos, sinceramente llevó muy mala imagen del trato que se medio en esta Compañía por parte de esta persona que trabaja con ustedes, no llevo un buen recuerdo2025-05-22

  • reviews1★Yesterday at 4:30 pm, we took the AB979TK bus. The driver and his assistant played loud music from the moment we got off. 5 or 6 people repeatedly asked him to turn it down. When he didn't, I politely asked him to turn it down because it was becoming unbearable. He said no and laughed with his colleague. I decided to take a picture of both of us to post on social media because we couldn't believe the lack of respect. When I took the picture, he hit my hand and knocked my phone to the floor. It's worth remembering that he was the one driving in charge of more than 40 people. He still didn't turn the volume down. I don't understand how a company would hire such a disrespectful and violent person. I have a photo of both of us, from the bus with the license plate, and I will also post my feedback on Google and social media. I'm sorry for hiring people with such rudeness!2025-06-03
  • reviews1★It is stated on the website that non-flexible booking can be cancelled within one hour of booking but this feature is not working. I made an error with the time and could not cancel a booking immediately after. My money gone and no means of calling this company.2025-06-05
  • reviews1★The trip both ways was terrible. The drivers sell extra tickets and we were sitting on stairs. Ensure electronic check in, that people after having bought the tickets shouldn’t stand in the queue to make a check in the office 30 minutes befire - it’s old school in 21 century! You have foreigners coming from around the globe, please adapt the technologies to attract good tourists, that are ready to travel and pay in your country. Shame!2025-06-09

I will never use this agency again.2025-08-25
  • reviews1★Will be one of the 5 worst bus journeys I've experienced. I had purchased an online ticket and was seated in the middle back row. Online usually get priority seating. The journey took 5 hours instead of 4. We had an unofficial stop and not kept informed by the driver as to the reason. The air con was non existent, with no toilet on board I refrained from drinking but as a result experienced heat stroke from the lack of air. If buses do not come equipped with fully functioning air con then the buses should be fitted with windows that can be opened and closed2025-09-03

Not recommended.2025-09-25

  • reviews1★To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to formally raise a complaint about the deeply unacceptable experience I had on 26/04/2026 with Gjirafa Travel, and I want to be very clear: I am not satisfied with a 1-star rating alone — I want a full refund, and I want this matter taken seriously. I booked my seat well in advance. This was not a last-minute reservation — I planned ahead, paid the full fare, and had every reasonable expectation that my seat would be held for me. On the day of travel, I encountered a delay and, knowing I would arrive approximately 10 minutes late, I attempted to call ahead and inform your team. Nobody answered. Not once. I arrived at 3:50 PM. My seat had been given away to another passenger. Let me be direct about what happened next: I was forced to sit on the floor of the bus. On the floor. After paying full price for a reserved seat. This is not a minor inconvenience — it is a complete failure of your basic obligation as a transport provider. A booked seat is a contract. You gave it away while I was actively trying to reach you. To make matters significantly worse, your staff’s behaviour toward me was rude and dismissive. Not apologetic. Not solution-oriented. Rude. When a paying customer is already in a difficult situation, that is the moment your staff should step up — and they did the opposite. I want to be very clear about what I am asking for: 1. A full refund for this journey, given that the service I paid for was not provided. 2. A written explanation of how my pre-booked seat was given to another passenger despite my prior contact attempt. 3. A formal response to the conduct of the staff member(s) involved. I gave this experience 1 star on your feedback platform, and I will not be stopping there. If this is not resolved promptly and to a satisfactory standard, I will be escalating this complaint to the relevant consumer protection authority and leaving detailed public reviews across every platform available to me. I have screenshots, records of my attempted call, and the timestamp of my arrival. I expect a response within 5 working days.2026-04-26

  • reviews1★The esim didn't work and the QR code I received was "blank" (no URL embedded). There were no customer service on Sunday to help, I did send a WhatsApp message to the customer service number but didn't get a reply until 2 days later, and the agents' responses were completely useless, they just wanted to close the case and were not even keen to look into the core of the problem to help. I didn't get to activate the esim in the entire trip, it was a total waste of money, and at the end of trip I got no refund or proper help or whatsoever. I would ask everyone to avoid gjirafa!2026-05-29

  • reviews2★The driver was nice and did safe drive, however the arrival time was late 45mins.2026-03-23
  • reviews2★Horrible bus experience2026-04-01
  • reviews2★The bus ride down to Sarande was great, good information from the bus driver, safe driving and comfortable air conditioning vehicle. The drive back to Tirana was the worst thing Ive experienced, 5.5 hour drive instead of 4, no air conditioning, cramped in a mini van with a driver who was rude and did not speak English. He would pull over the side of road and smoke and then not answer any questions we had, the van was like a sauna and we nearly missed our flight.2026-05-26
  • reviews2★We booked online but we had no seats booked and we have to reach early to get a seat on bus which is not really helpful. Saw some of the passengers struggling also as they booked seats but were being almost harassed for not having a seat in person but they actually booked online and the bus personnel have no idea nor did they speak english. A total mess2026-06-04
  • reviews2★It was very hot on the bus and the driver smoke a LOT of times2026-06-27
  • reviews2★Too hot!!!2026-06-28
  • reviews2★The website itself is great. But 3 of us bought a ticket and the bus station refused to use our tickets and stated we need a physical copy in hand from the bus station, so we had to buy a second ticket2026-07-19
  • reviews2★The first bus was late so we missed the next one… NOT COOL. We got home 5 hours later then we should have!!2026-07-30
  • reviews2★Overpriced for an old bus and hectic organisation. Not to be repeated.2026-08-14
  • reviews3★Goof2024-09-02
  • reviews3★The bus was very old, filthy and generally very uncomfortable - I have bruises on my legs from the seat pressing into them, plus if anyone reclines at all then there is no space at all. Also, the bus stopped far too many times, which was annoying. Multiple times they picked up people, even though there were no seats available, so those people ended up standing in the aisles imposing on the original passenger's space. The multiple stops seemed totally unnecessary too, turning a 4 hour trip (which could probably be 3) into a 5.5 hour trip. It was also almost thirty mins late departing from the original station in Tirana.2024-09-04
  • reviews3★The driver made multiple unscheduled stops. I arrived at my location and hour later than the time that was recorded. There was no communication from the driver about the stops and everyone started to get off the bus before the final stop without warning2024-09-05
  • reviews3★El chófer manejaba mut rápido2024-09-05
  • reviews3★Buona organizzazione2024-09-13
  • reviews3★The driver stopped the van for a long break. He also picked up parts and delivered them to businesses on his route. The caused us to be late to our destination.2025-01-15
  • reviews3★The buses are quite outdated, but more importantly they are often not clean. Especially the windows where people rest their heads, filthy!2025-04-15
  • reviews3★Ok ,should be better aircondition2025-06-05
  • reviews3★Although the bus left on time it was delayed on both trips. I wish it would have been cleaner. Also, would have appreciated if the driver would inform the passengers if an unexpected stop had to be made or the break duration half way through the trip.2025-06-15
  • reviews3★The journey was longer than expected, both ways so it should be calculate that way. (5 hours instead if 4) but overall it was Okay2025-07-14
  • reviews3★I rode a bus from Tirana to Sarande. The staff was rude, the bus was late leaving and 2 hours late arriving, it was hot, cramped, and they didn't stop for FOUR hours to let us use a bathroom. So not the best experience but it got us to where we needed to go so that's a plus.2025-07-29
  • reviews3★First the 4 euros extra for booking are not so ideal. The bus station is not a bus station but a parking lot and it is not obvious where to go. It should be more explained if someone book online.not toilets on the bus for a 5 hours ride is also wild.2025-07-30
  • reviews3★Bus clean and confortable but tirana to saranda took over 5:30 hours instead of 4, and no charging station for phones. the delay made the journey really hard to bear.2025-08-06
  • reviews3★Generally positive, but the bus arrived to Saranda an hour later than promised.2025-08-06
  • reviews3★Shouting between staff and staff and customer2025-08-19
  • reviews3★The bus was scheduled to depart at 16:00 and the driver advised us to go there at 15:30. We did as we suggested but the bus eventually departed at 16:20.2025-09-21
  • reviews3★Too much stops in the middle2025-10-12
  • reviews3★The return bus was terrible. It was a small van. It was completely full and I was squeezed into the back row. I felt very cramped between two big men. One man had a strong body odor. This lasted for five hours. It was torture. You need a bigger buses. Don't pack a lot of people into a van. I really wish Flix buses in Albania.2025-11-04
  • reviews3★Van was comfortable and we arrived close to our on time but the break was longer than driver said, he smoked while he drive and he yelled at us to get out of the bus and had no idea the bus was at the end. Also check in I had QR code and was told I needed my online receipt. Luckily I had it. Not very nice. A lot of frustrated yelling.2026-02-24
  • reviews3★The estimated travel time was not accurate, so for my trip to Tirana from Saranda I was late to my bus and missed my ticket slot. On the way to Saranda from Tirana it also took about two hours longer than expected. Driver from Saranda was smoking in the van the whole time.2026-03-22
  • reviews3★The quality of the buses could be improved. We were unable to adjust our seats and the air conditioning was not appropriate. I was also concerned to see the driver smoking while driving, as this raised safety concerns.2026-08-11
  • reviews3★This is our first time with this company… C’était notre première fois. Nous devions arriver à 12:45… et sommes arrivés à 2:23….2026-08-12
  • reviews4★Departure was on time! The break was a little bit too long in our opinion. So at the end we weren't on time in Saranda. The driver was good and we had a ventilated vehicle.2024-08-25
  • reviews4★Decent enough booking process. Departure and arrival times ought to be more accurate.2024-09-12
  • reviews4★Had to change bus right before start after sitting in another one for about one hour, staff could be more polite2024-09-14
  • reviews4★The staff were helpful however we had to change to a smaller bus which was quite old and not very nice but then we had to change back to the bigger bus which was somewhat newer which I was happy about. Overall it was pretty good.2024-09-21
  • reviews4★It was great to have the opportunity to pay for the ticket online. More details about the procedure to verify the online ticket at the bus station would be very helpful2024-09-24
  • reviews4★Good experience even if the travel was a bit longer than what was written2024-09-24
  • reviews4★Maybe saying where the stop is, so ppl know.2024-10-22
  • reviews4★Was easy to navigate Albania, easy to book.2024-10-31
  • reviews4★Good2024-11-05
  • reviews4★The process went fairly smooth. There was a lot we didn’t know and we expected are large bus but the sprinter van was fine.2024-11-09
  • reviews4★the experience was good on the bus. I would recommend having signage at South and North terminal station. The only reason I found where to check in was because a staff member was standing there and asked me. Then he told me which direction to find the bus but it is so hectic at that station I think the buses also need better signage.2024-12-02
  • reviews4★Only positive impressions! I really liked everything! A couple of recommendations, though: • Don’t drive too fast, as it’s important to be as cautious as possible in the mountains; • Basic knowledge of English would be helpful for the drivers.2025-01-13
  • reviews4★All was very good!2025-01-18
  • reviews4★Autobusi ne te vertete mberriti 30 minuta me vonese2025-01-30
  • reviews4★The Bus from Tirana to Saranda needed more then one hour more because of traffic jam in several places. Rest was fine Thank you2025-04-17
  • reviews4★Good. But staff is not very friendly2025-04-30
  • reviews4★The driver was really rude, not friendly at all! Wanted to ask him to change the AC tempreture a bit higher, he pretended he can not READ and he sent me away. So the staff is definitely NOT a pleasent experience. He also didn’t mention where and WHEN will we stop, everyone were just waiting the bus to stop for a break (go to toilet, eat etc..) it would have been nice if the driver at the start of the journey could inform us about this.2025-05-21
  • reviews4★Booking was fine. When arriving, company told me that lucky seats were available, I don't think they take the booking system too seriously in terms of reservations.2025-06-02
  • reviews4★quiet good but Website needs some improvement2025-06-06
  • reviews4★A good experience2025-06-08
  • reviews4★It was good, but not really clear where to transfer to south and north terminal tirana2025-06-13
  • reviews4★When we had a break, there was no information on how long. The journey was much longer than indicated.2025-06-20
  • reviews4★Onduidelijkheid bij vertrekpunt in Saranda. Geen communicatie. Medewerkers maken zich niet bekend. De organisatie is onherkenbaar, dragen geen dienstkleding. Spijkerbroek en T-shirt. Wie is wie/wat? Chauffeur rookt achter het stuur tijdens de rit, diverse keren. Geen communicatie tijdens een stop. Hoe lang blijven we bij het restaurant?2025-06-22
  • reviews4★Bus was quite warm, aircon didn‘t work too well. And if you‘re over 190cm - you simply dont fit in the seats. Luckily there were empty seats, so i could solve that Problem. But staff was nice, booking was easy, so all in all a good experience.2025-06-26

  • reviews4★Smooth ride, too bad the overhead bin was very dirty with sticky stuff (marmalade??) and soils our bag and my shirt and pants. Staff was nice.2025-07-21
  • reviews4★Instalar la eSIM ha sido muy fácil y funciona perfectamente. El viaje en autobús ha n poco más largo de lo esperado salió con media hora de retraso pero por lo demás todo bien.2025-07-28

  • reviews4★Everything was fine, the bus was old.2025-08-09
  • reviews4★Tooked way longer than described because of the traffic2025-08-18
  • reviews4★The journey went well. Only the bus was a little bit old, but thank god there was airco in it. The chauffeur drove also really good, so it was a nice experience.2025-08-22
  • reviews4★Bus came on time. Air conditioning was working just fine. One bus stop in 5 hours is good.2025-08-25
  • reviews4★Seats too Small2025-08-25
  • reviews4★There were a few people who bought tickets and weren't able to get on the bus or were offered to sit on the floor (some did!) Is this double-selling or a faulty reservation system? Regardless this HAS to be fixed- btw these weren't $1-2 cheap tix but almost $20 (which can get me from DC to NYC). Once we got on the bus the ride was alright, AC was working and all was good...until the bus side panel holding all the suitcases flew open and a bunch of luggage (including mine) went flying down the road. This caused an almost 2 hour delay though thankfully there were no injuries or accidents beyond 1 destroyed and 1 lost suitcase. Girafa: make sure the buses have enough seats for all of us and are operationally sound...2025-08-25
  • reviews4★All good👍🏻2025-08-26
  • reviews4★Bus was comfortable, check in ok, but we haven’t received info about the stops. Also, the bus arrived at destination almost an hour later…2025-08-27

  • reviews4★Journey was OK and without problem. The only one problem was at the beginning when I wasn't sure for what bus should I go (it was bus to Tirane).2025-10-15
  • reviews4★It was fine, even if we arrived a little behind the schedule.2025-10-16
  • reviews4★Small bus with no leg room. People jammed in with luggage in the aisles as not enough room in the back. Driver was good but arrived late. Not sure if this was related to the extra stops that were made. Made it safe and sound.2025-10-24
  • reviews4★Print the addresses of the offices/kiosks where you have to go to collect tickets on the electronic ticket confirmation (especially for Tirana North/South terminal as it is a very large area and very chaotic for people who are not used to it).2025-11-27
  • reviews4★The journey wasn’t bad but it would have been nice to have been informed that we were running late and expected time of arrival at Saranda2026-04-19
  • reviews4★The fee that Gjirafa takes is a bit high2026-04-26
  • reviews4★Ride was fine. Bus that I bought ticket for not showing up at all and having to stand and wait for the next one two hours later wasn't so cool.2026-05-04
  • reviews4★I booked my ride from tirana to Saranda and back, and overall it was a good experience. Though a little bit here and there, like the bus didn’t had proper working AC for the ride back, so was a bit hot. Good thing the weather was nice. The ride from tirana to Saranda was but the mini van was a bit dirty. But overall a good experience.2026-05-06
  • reviews4★Good experience overall2026-06-19
  • reviews4★Overall good experience, i think the prblem is the drivers never scan the wallet qr code but they want the email.2026-06-19

  • reviews4★It was a good ride and the driver tried to stop as I had to urgently pee, but I had to hold it for reallllyyy long!2026-08-01
  • reviews4★1) staff could be more polite and informative not in fighting mode. 2) travel destination could be more informative including breaking location. 3) Early seat selection could be initiated during the ticket booking in internet. 4) I would like to thank the bus driver. He was very kind and informative.2026-08-07
  • reviews4★It’s ok2026-08-12
  • reviews4★Everything went well. The travel was Way more longer because the traffic, you have to keep that ín mind.2026-08-13
  • reviews4★Quite good. Bus not really modern, no toilet and only one rest stop. But overall totally fine for the price.2026-08-14
  • reviews4★It should be possible to change the number of people, not just edit the names.2026-08-20
  • reviews4★The booking process with Girafa was smooth and uncomplicated, but the actual bus operator wasn’t quite as good. Broken seats and chaos with seat alllocation. Still departed and arrived on-time though (within reasonable tolerance)2026-08-24
  • reviews4★Unfortunately, in retrospect, I don’t recommend the bus system in Albania. Private transfer is much better. But thank you Gjirafa for making it easy to at least get tickets.2026-08-25
  • reviews4★It was good2026-08-26

  • reviews5★Exceptional service and professionalism We traveled with Classic Company from Kopyevo to Ohrid, and everything was smooth, fast, and very comfortable. The night ride was handled by a highly professional driver who made the trip feel safe and easy. Our next trip was from Ohrid to Tirana, scheduled for 6 AM. Due to a language barrier with some of the staff, we accidentally boarded the wrong bus — we were told it was going to Tirana, but it turned out our actual bus was a different one. What happened next truly surprised us: the company arranged a private transfer just for the two of us. The car came all the way from their office (about 30 minutes from the border), picked us up, and drove us across the border into Albania and all the way to Tirana — a 3-hour trip! Possibly, no one else had booked that bus, but still — they didn’t cancel it. They honored our tickets and provided a magical level of service that we had never seen before. We are extremely grateful and impressed. Highly recommended!2025-06-30

Drivers reject paid e-tickets at boarding and prioritize passengers with paper tickets, leaving online buyers standing or stranded; 7 riders reported this across 77 reviews on this line. We lose trust and money when our tickets fail to guarantee a seat, and we must fix how Gazmend Turist boards passengers or face refunds and complaints to consumer protection authorities.

  • reviews1★reported thisThe driver of the bus from Skopje to Pristina (on October 6, 2025, at 8 AM) tried to throw us off the bus despite the fact that we had tickets for a specific departure time – he ordered passengers with tickets bought online to get off.2025-10-09
  • reviews1★reported thisMy experience with Gjirafa Travel / Gazmend Turist was extremely disappointing and, frankly, unacceptable. The departure journey from Skopje to Prishtina was very unpleasant. The air conditioning barely worked, making the bus hot, stuffy, and uncomfortable throughout the trip. Despite passengers raising concerns, the driver was rude and unwilling to address the issue. The return journey from Prishtina to Skopje was even worse. We arrived at the station around 5:30 PM, well before the scheduled departure, and presented our valid electronic ticket on our phones. However, the driver refused to let us board, insisting that only a printed ticket would be accepted, despite no such requirement being clearly communicated during the booking process. We were forced to run around the bus station searching for a print shop, causing unnecessary stress and anxiety. After eventually allowing us to board, the driver deliberately made us sit at the very back of the bus despite many other seats being available. Throughout the interaction, his behaviour was rude, disrespectful, and unprofessional. We left feeling that we were treated differently because of our skin colour, which made the experience even more upsetting. No passenger should be subjected to such treatment. Good customer service starts with respect, professionalism, and equal treatment for everyone. I urge Gjirafa Travel to investigate this incident thoroughly and provide me with a formal response explaining what action has been taken against the staff involved. If I do not receive a satisfactory response, I will have no option but to escalate this matter to the relevant consumer protection authorities and share my experience on public review platforms so that other travellers are aware of how we were treated. I sincerely hope the company takes this complaint seriously and ensures that no other passengers have to endure such an unpleasant experience.2026-07-11
  • reviews1★reported thisGazmend Turist drivers do not accept tickets purchased online through Girafa Travel. They only accept tickets purchased at the bus station and allow these passengers to board first. Passengers with online tickets through Girafa Travel will be left behind at the bus station.2026-08-14
  • reviews1★reported thisSe potessi mettere 0 stelle lo farei. Purtroppo la mia esperienza non è stata affatto positiva. Ho comprato i biglietti online e non sono garantiti, il personale fa salire coloro che hanno acquistato il biglietto cartaceo e se rimane posto ti fa salire. Ho prenotato per Pristina il 14/08/2026, la mattina nessuna informazione e l'autobus che dovevamo prendere non si è presentato e ho dovuto prendere quello dell' ora successiva senza che nessuno ha dato informazioni utili e quindi siamo arrivati a destinazione con quasi 2 ore di ritardo. Il vero problema è stato il viaggio di ritorno dove nonostante avessimo il biglietto ci è stato negato di salire. I posti disponibili erano meno della metà del necessario. Dopo discussioni hanno fatto viaggiare alcuni di noi in condizioni pessime, in totale assenza di procedure di sicurezza viaggiando su un banchetto di plastica nel corridoio, senza aria condizionata e in totale illegalità. Altri sono dovuti rimanere a terra nonostante avessero acquistato il biglietto. È stata una vera follia, senza nessuna indicazione, lasciando delle persone con regolare biglietto in un paese straniero. Mi sarei aspettato minimo il rimborso del biglietto e le scuse con una alternativa per tornare e invece il personale se ne è fregato. Ho trovato tutto questo totalmente assurdo, una situazione in cui non mi sono mai trovato nonostante io viaggi ogni mese anche per lavoro. Sconsiglio vivamente a tutti questa pessima esperienza.2026-08-15
  • reviews2★reported thisHello, the online shopping experience was very good, however, I thought it was terrible that the driver prevented those who bought online from getting on the bus, we had to wait the last minutes to board and get the worst seats, I didn't understand why we had to wait to get inside and I went through a stressful situation during the holidays that I wouldn't like. I was going from pristina kosovo to skopje 1st September 6pm2025-09-02
  • reviews2★reported thisJourney from Skopje to Pristina was perfect. Everyone has it's own place and it went smooth. Problem occurred when we were traveling back to Skopje from Pristina. We had tickets bought online with qr code , everything was paid in advance but the driver was letting to the bus only passengers with physical paper ticket from station and there were too many passenger to time we had bought our tickets. So situation was that passenger with paper ticket can go to bus and others who bought ticket online need stay because it's no enough seats. Fortunately some passenger translated to the driver from English to Macedonian and driver let us travel but we sitter on plastic chair in the aisle between other passenger , and some passengers were standing the whole journey to Skopje . So we traveled like 30 people in bus for 20 people (approximately). Your company is joke , you need to learn to sell only that much ticket how many places are on the real bus . This is not driver's mistake, he only drives and needs to deal with that situations daily as we heard . Your company selling much more tickets than seats in bus so you need to improve and also give driver som app that he can scan qr code and let passengers to the bus with online ticket also not only with paper tickets and then he needs to deals with situation what to do with the people left. We are grateful about driver because in the end he allow us to travel but as I said it was very uncomfortable to sit in the aisle basically between others like animals. Next time I would buy only paper tickets at the station if you don't know how to work with technologies.2026-07-30
  • reviews3★reported thisWe missed our first bus because the people at the bus station wouldn’t let us in because we had to pay the bau station tax and instead of letting the bus know they wouldn’t let us in and then when we got there 2 minutes later it was gone. and then we couldn’t get on the bus 45 minutes later so we had to buy a new ticket. The bus driver was very rude as well and talking to someone else on the bus and when we got our tickets he kept bitching. So I wouldn’t recommend montoya travel.2026-08-12
  • reviews1★no AC for whole trip and delay 90mins2025-07-27
  • reviews1★On 14.08.2025 I traveled with Gazmend Turist from Prishtina to Skopje. Unfortunately, the experience was extremely disappointing and unsafe. The bus broke down in the middle of the highway, and all passengers were left waiting for over 2.5 hours at night without any clear information about what was happening. Even more concerning, no safety measures were taken – not even a simple warning triangle to alert other vehicles on the road. This created a dangerous situation for both passengers and other drivers. Basic passenger communication and safety procedures were completely missing. I expected at least timely updates, assistance, or visible concern for the wellbeing of the passengers, but this was not the case. This level of service is unacceptable for an international route. I strongly recommend the company to improve both safety standards and communication with passengers in such situations.2025-08-15
  • reviews1★15 persons car, we are 22 people in the car. Most passengers were standing. Most passengers were standing. Everyone was uneasy.2025-10-26
  • reviews1★We were waiting for 20 minutes past the scheduled departure time, and when it finally arrived it occoured to us that we will be riding in a mini-bus that didn't have the amount of seats neeeded to move all of us, it was 5 seats short. So some of the ticket buyers were forcred to ride all the way through while standing. Awful experience to say the least.2025-11-01
  • reviews1★Não recomendo2025-12-09
  • reviews1★We waited at the designated spot for an hour before departure. Despite this, the driver only picked up some of the passengers. He left the rest without resolving the issue. How is it even possible that more tickets were sold than there are seats on the bus? We had to wait another several hours for another bus from a different carrier to reach our destination. Therefore, I am requesting a refund of the ticket reservation costs and compensation.2026-01-06

People without online tickets were prioritized at boarding, and we could only board after all the people without online tickets physical tickets had boarded (even though we were at the bus more than 30 minutes prior to departure).

  • reviews1★Even though I was there on time, they refused to let me board the vehicle, saying it was full. I had made my reservation hours in advance. They let someone who paid in cash board instead, and left me behind. Even after I told the driver that I had already paid in advance, he just shrugged, made dismissive gestures with his hands, and didn’t even say a word. When I asked for my money back, he simply waved his hands, got into the vehicle, and drove away.2026-07-14
  • reviews1★I paid money just like everyone else so I can sit on the floor of the bus. There were no free sits and the driver told me to sit on the floor of the bus or wait for the other one. At least I got to sit on the floor, the other people who also bought tickets from you didn't get any chance to get on the bus, and some of them bought them since February and planned their trips so this rude driver can destroy it for them. The driver did a lot of driving mistakes where he got all of us into danger and he got into a heated argument on the border.2026-08-07
  • reviews1★On our return trip from Pristina to Skopje, my daughter and I traveled with 25 more people on a bus suitable for 23 people (4 people more than the capacity), and 4 people were left on the ground. Anlso, priority was given to people who had a paper ticket, before those who had an online booking. It is unbelievable that you accept more reservations than the actual seats capacity!2026-08-08
  • reviews1★I have scammed. I paid a ticket with your company. Arrived 2 hours in advance at the station. When the bus came, they let other people go in then said the bus is full. I could not take the bus. I want refund. It is outrageous of you. I had to buy an other tikcet, more expensive of course.2026-08-15

  • reviews3★Ok2025-11-19
  • reviews3★Overall experience was positive, although it is not clear why there should be a difference between those who buy the ticket online and those who buy it at the desk. In Skopje We had to wait for another bus as the first one was full of passengers who bought their ticket at the desk and arrived after us: being very cold outside this was not pleasant. In Pristina we made sure to arrive early as chances to not find a seat are quite high. Drivers could be more road wise as they tend to fidget quite a lot on cell phones, papers or being distracted talking to passengers.2026-01-03
  • reviews3★-in Skopje you have to pay an extra ticket to access the bus platform -I asked twice in Pristina if all was good with my ticket, and they said yes. Then when I arrived they said the bus was full and they could not grant a seat for me, even though I had booked a seat for that bus2026-05-11
  • reviews3★Please update the booking process!!!! We booked online tickets for Sunday 14/06/2026 at 8:00, but when were at the station, they told us that there was NO BUS at 8:00 on Sundays, only at 10:10a.m. 2 hours spent in the neighborhood, nothing in the quarter...

  • reviews5★I was backpack-travelling Europe when I was in Tirana, searching for a bus ticket to Skopje and further to Sofia. It was either Google Maps or Rome to Rio that led me to the Gjirafa website. After a few minutes it was clear that I could book Tirana to Skopje (with connecting in Pristina) at Gjirafa. The cherry on the pie was an eSIM card for 12 Balkan countries for a good price - 100% fit for my needs! After 15 minutes I had purchased two bus tickets plus the eSIM card. I was happy and could relaxedly continue with my sightseeing in Tirana.2025-08-24

  • reviews1★reported thisUnfortunately there’s no 0 to select as it’s my score for this company. Staff 0 behaviour to treat customers, very rude and think we’re animals, no English at all. I got my tickets 3 weeks before my trip, due a problem with the taxi I arrived at bus station 10 min before to departure and the guy very rude simply told me there was only one seat left but I’ve bought 2. As I didn’t show up 30 min before they were sold all the tickets at moment in the bus station (???) and the only way to heading to Sardana is one of us seat on the floor during the trip of almost 4 hours!!!! It’s completely unacceptable, there’s no control about tickets, no security, no air conditioning, bus was messed of organisation, passagens discussing about seats as the info in the ticket was trrrible to understand as they mark with the pan (?), my seat in the ticket was 51 and the bus had only 49! The funny is that people who just bought tickets at bus station were seating and us who bought earlier to avoid problems seated on the floor, that’s disgusting! I will never recommend this company, better pay a little extra a rent a car or got a private van for groups. Avoid this company to preserve your mental health!2024-09-11
  • reviews1★reported thisNo aircondition!2025-07-12
  • reviews1★reported thisNo hay aire acondicionado. 5 horas de viaje en un autobús en un estado lamentable. Se rompió uno de los asientos. La puerta del autobús estaba rota y se abría y aun así hicimos el viaje. Se pincho una rueda a mitad de camino. Todo problemas y ninguna explicación.2025-07-15
  • reviews1★reported thisNo ac. No windows to open. Bumpy horrible ride don’t do it!!!!!2025-07-24
  • reviews1★reported thisWe took a bus from Tirana to Sarande on Friday 25th July 2025. That was the worse experience ever in any country, 41 degrees Celsius and no air conditioning. Everyone was close to fainting. Whole journey was supposed to finish in 4 hours and 15 minutes, we arrived after 6 hours. I would never go again with gjirafa travel.2025-07-26
  • reviews1★reported thisJourney took almost 6 hours instead of just over 4. No air con. Metal bar could be felt through seat. Sweaty and uncomfortable. One person had to sit on a stool in the aisle. Never again!2025-08-12
  • reviews1★reported thisWill be one of the 5 worst bus journeys I've experienced. I had purchased an online ticket and was seated in the middle back row. Online usually get priority seating. The journey took 5 hours instead of 4. We had an unofficial stop and not kept informed by the driver as to the reason. The air con was non existent, with no toilet on board I refrained from drinking but as a result experienced heat stroke from the lack of air. If buses do not come equipped with fully functioning air con then the buses should be fitted with windows that can be opened and closed2025-09-03
  • reviews1★reported thisThe worst bus ride of my life. The bus left Tirana almost 30 minutes late. The seats were extremely uncomfortable; they couldn't recline and there was no air conditioning. The bus stopped countless times; the driver even got off to eat for nearly 30 minutes, knowing he was running late. Finally, we arrived in Saranda almost an hour and a half late. Not recommended.2025-09-25
  • reviews1★reported thishot, no ac, smelled bad, charged me twice and won't refund one of them2025-10-06
  • reviews2★reported thisThe bus ride down to Sarande was great, good information from the bus driver, safe driving and comfortable air conditioning vehicle. The drive back to Tirana was the worst thing Ive experienced, 5.5 hour drive instead of 4, no air conditioning, cramped in a mini van with a driver who was rude and did not speak English. He would pull over the side of road and smoke and then not answer any questions we had, the van was like a sauna and we nearly missed our flight.2026-05-26
  • reviews5★reported thisAutobus bez klimatyzacji, droga z Sarandy do Tirany była bardzo długa.2026-05-27
  • reviews1★I booked a bus through Gjirafa Travel, but the bus simply did not exist. I arrived at the station on time, but there was no bus, no driver, and no staff to assist me. I had to book another ticket last minute, which was frustrating and an unnecessary extra expense. I contacted customer service and requested a refund, but they never responded. Instead, they sent me a message asking me to rate my experience—so here it is: terrible service, zero reliability, and no customer support. I strongly advise against using this service unless you want to risk being stranded. I expect a proper response and a refund for the ticket I paid for.2025-03-11
  • reviews1★i wanted to change destination location, but i could not. I was only given the option to change time/date.. even though I purchased premium flex.2025-05-06
  • reviews1★Absolutely unreliable service and the worst travel experience. On our onward journey from Tirana to Sarande we were boarded on a old small coach that was not good for travel longer than 1-2 hours - it also broke on the way and we were delayed by over 1 hours to reach Sarande. I had booked return tickets and to my surprise I was told the bus is cancelled. I didn't get any notice, email or call from the agency or travel operator and was left without information in the bus station in Sarande. I have to book a private taxi at EUR 150 to travel to Tirana as I had my flight. The cancellation without even informing the client is against the rule and laws and I have raised this with their customer service without any resolution yet. Absolutely poor service and not something you can rely on2025-05-07
  • reviews1★Unorganised2025-05-19
  • reviews1★Cogí el autobús de Sarande dirección a Tirana, ya tenía el ticket que lo compré a ustedes por internet, la salida del autobús de Sarande hacia TIRANA era a las 2 de la tarde del día 20 de Mayo. Pregunte al chico que estaba controlando los tickets de los viajeros que si podía darme un asiento un poco más adelante, ya que mi asiento era atrás del todo y yo me mareo y lo paso mal, la respuesta de este chico, con muy mala educación y muy alterado me contestó que cogiera un Taxi si me marehaba, me cuesta entender que personas como este chico puedan trabajar de esa forma nada de respeto hacia el viajero, cuando tiene que dar ejemplo de educación y saber estar, porque estás personas no hacen bien su trabajo y dan muy mala imagen al turismo con sus comportamientos, sinceramente llevó muy mala imagen del trato que se medio en esta Compañía por parte de esta persona que trabaja con ustedes, no llevo un buen recuerdo2025-05-22
  • reviews1★The men running the North-South terminal were awful and lazy, except the younger one. The one sitting in the booth selling tickets was the worst. Busy talking to each other, fighting, and arguing instead of keeping the area clean and running on time. Not even a trash can for customers. Bus left an hour late. Aircon never got cold. Stopped halfway for a break. Stopped again to get a new tire, but did not tell customers why they stopped.2025-05-26

  • reviews1★Musica ad alto volume per tutta la durata del viaggio e alla richiesta di abbassare è stato risposto di no, in malo modo,da parte del conducente.2025-06-03
  • reviews1★Yesterday at 4:30 pm, we took the AB979TK bus. The driver and his assistant played loud music from the moment we got off. 5 or 6 people repeatedly asked him to turn it down. When he didn't, I politely asked him to turn it down because it was becoming unbearable. He said no and laughed with his colleague. I decided to take a picture of both of us to post on social media because we couldn't believe the lack of respect. When I took the picture, he hit my hand and knocked my phone to the floor. It's worth remembering that he was the one driving in charge of more than 40 people. He still didn't turn the volume down. I don't understand how a company would hire such a disrespectful and violent person. I have a photo of both of us, from the bus with the license plate, and I will also post my feedback on Google and social media. I'm sorry for hiring people with such rudeness!2025-06-03
  • reviews1★It is stated on the website that non-flexible booking can be cancelled within one hour of booking but this feature is not working. I made an error with the time and could not cancel a booking immediately after. My money gone and no means of calling this company.2025-06-05
  • reviews1★The trip both ways was terrible. The drivers sell extra tickets and we were sitting on stairs. Ensure electronic check in, that people after having bought the tickets shouldn’t stand in the queue to make a check in the office 30 minutes befire - it’s old school in 21 century! You have foreigners coming from around the globe, please adapt the technologies to attract good tourists, that are ready to travel and pay in your country. Shame!2025-06-09

  • reviews1★We got two tickets for our round-trip bus journey from Tirana to Saranda (4 hrs bus ride each way) and it was awful. The bus was dirty, the air conditioning wasn’t working despite the high temperatures (making the ride very uncomfortable) and the bathroom was out of service. On both the outbound and return trips, the bus was delayed by over an hour. When we politely asked the staff if there was a problem, we were treated rudely and our concerns were dismissed. NOT RECOMMENDED.2025-06-28

Not a great experience2025-08-01

I will never use this agency again.2025-08-25

  • reviews1★To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to formally raise a complaint about the deeply unacceptable experience I had on 26/04/2026 with Gjirafa Travel, and I want to be very clear: I am not satisfied with a 1-star rating alone — I want a full refund, and I want this matter taken seriously. I booked my seat well in advance. This was not a last-minute reservation — I planned ahead, paid the full fare, and had every reasonable expectation that my seat would be held for me. On the day of travel, I encountered a delay and, knowing I would arrive approximately 10 minutes late, I attempted to call ahead and inform your team. Nobody answered. Not once. I arrived at 3:50 PM. My seat had been given away to another passenger. Let me be direct about what happened next: I was forced to sit on the floor of the bus. On the floor. After paying full price for a reserved seat. This is not a minor inconvenience — it is a complete failure of your basic obligation as a transport provider. A booked seat is a contract. You gave it away while I was actively trying to reach you. To make matters significantly worse, your staff’s behaviour toward me was rude and dismissive. Not apologetic. Not solution-oriented. Rude. When a paying customer is already in a difficult situation, that is the moment your staff should step up — and they did the opposite. I want to be very clear about what I am asking for: 1. A full refund for this journey, given that the service I paid for was not provided. 2. A written explanation of how my pre-booked seat was given to another passenger despite my prior contact attempt. 3. A formal response to the conduct of the staff member(s) involved. I gave this experience 1 star on your feedback platform, and I will not be stopping there. If this is not resolved promptly and to a satisfactory standard, I will be escalating this complaint to the relevant consumer protection authority and leaving detailed public reviews across every platform available to me. I have screenshots, records of my attempted call, and the timestamp of my arrival. I expect a response within 5 working days.2026-04-26

  • reviews1★Our bus was dripping water all over and we kept going on the entire journey from tirana to sarandë. The same bus went back to Tirana that night. I expect a refund or I won’t be travelling with gjirafa travel anymore. I can prove that with several videos.2026-05-19
  • reviews1★The esim didn't work and the QR code I received was "blank" (no URL embedded). There were no customer service on Sunday to help, I did send a WhatsApp message to the customer service number but didn't get a reply until 2 days later, and the agents' responses were completely useless, they just wanted to close the case and were not even keen to look into the core of the problem to help. I didn't get to activate the esim in the entire trip, it was a total waste of money, and at the end of trip I got no refund or proper help or whatsoever. I would ask everyone to avoid gjirafa!2026-05-29

  • reviews1★A very bad experience. The old bus, without seatbelts in all the seats, the chairs didn't recline because they were broken. They take people sitting in the aisle, there's no automatic ticket control with the QR code issued. They put us in separate seats even though we asked to go together. I do not recommend this company.2026-08-31
  • reviews1★I wouldn't recommend Albania to anyone, most of the people are unfriendly, trying to scam and just not worth your money. Go to Corfu and just go visit Sarande or any other place from there for 1 or 2 days max. Better to avoid Albania.2026-08-31
  • reviews2★Air conditioning often too low or turned off...too hot inside the bus,expecially at the last seats.2024-09-15
  • reviews2★Driver smoked on the bus.2025-05-23
  • reviews2★Cramped coach with no toilet, left us in the coach for an hour without AC running. The coach was an hour late into Saranda. The driver was angry and seemed to be annoyed at two separate people who needed to stop for the bathroom, yet had no problem stopping to pick up and drop friends on the way who were not paying. We stopped once in 2 hours which was reasonable for us. But people have different needs. The website wasn’t really clear about where to find Tisa Travel. Cost of travel is good, but comfort and experience not so good.2025-06-02
  • reviews2★The booking process was totally fine and efficient thru the website. The actual journey was dreadful. Billed as 4 hours with 15 minute stop it was almost 6. Several extra stops where we sat in the bus waiting for not sure what, and the aircon was not very effective especially on the random 30 min stop. Seriously sweaty. Then an issue with an extremely drunk and stoned Frenchman, a fight nearly broke out on several occasions. He was unsafe to remain on the bus but they just shouted and swore at him, should have thrown him off at the pit stop. Not a good experience at all.2025-06-14
  • reviews2★It is really annoying that you don't answer to messages to the WhatsApp you we're giving on your website. And on the Website, the schedule is not right.2025-07-06
  • reviews2★The landscape was great, but not the ride. We arrived 1h late, and no one explained us why (it took 5h to go from Tirana to Sarandë). Luckily they had AC tho it didn't work a lot.2025-07-06
  • reviews2★The travel was not pleasent at all. We arrived 1h after the arrival time, there was no ac inside the bus (at least not enought for the 40 degrees we experienced) and in a total of more then 5h we stoped just once to use the bathroom.2025-07-22
  • reviews2★Very disorganized staff, for something so simple to get people on the bus it turned into chaos.It reallt only takes 1 switched-on person to explain to all the tourists who do not speak the language that their seat number is on the ticket.It took ages for people to understand what was happening onboard.Something that could have been done in 2 minutes with anyone from Girafa Travels making a little effort and in the end it is in the benefit of the bus driver to leave on time.Thank you2025-08-01
  • reviews2★There is still a lot to do, starting from building a proper bus terminal, setting up a proper ticket office in Tirana at the station, having better quality buses and drivers that are maybe not smoking during the journey and yelling & swearing all the time. There were also some dangerous traffic situations which really scared me. The overall experience was unfortunately quite negative.2025-08-04
  • reviews2★Réservation des billets très intuitive très rapide. Aucun soucis. Cependant le transporteur est parti en retard et s’est arrêté toutes les heures ce qui fait que le voyage annoncé à 4h de durée en a en fait durer plus de 6h30 avec une climatisation ne fonctionnant pas correctement. Bref déçu du transporteur2025-08-11
  • reviews2★The A/C was not good, it was very very hot2025-08-11
  • reviews2★The tisa travel tirana to sarande bus service was appalling. The service was supposed to take 4 hours 15 minutes. It actually took over 5 hours 30 mins, with the driver making numerous unscheduled stops to collect/drop-off items. He also used his mobile phone regularly while driving, including whole going through mountain passes with sheer drops.2025-08-21
  • reviews2★Many stops that appeared to be for private business. Poor communication. Arrived 90 minutes later than expected. Good driving2025-08-27
  • reviews2★always being not nice and really bad driver. The bus crashed and we had to get off before the destination2025-08-31
  • reviews2★Our bus broke down half way from Tirana to Saranda. We were waiting 2.5h and no information about what was the problem or how long we would need to wait. Its annoying arrive that late to the destination but a bit information could have lighten up a bit2025-09-17
  • reviews2★Yesterday took the bus from Tirana to Saranda. We arrived approx 16:15 compare to the schedule which was 14:00 arrival... no information was about it, nor about the stops along the road... There was no toilet on the bus which is ok, but there was an infornation on this page that it would be.2025-10-14
  • reviews2★The driver was nice and did safe drive, however the arrival time was late 45mins.2026-03-23
  • reviews2★Horrible bus experience2026-04-01
  • reviews2★It was 31 degrees on the bus and there was no air conditioning- it either didn’t work or they chose not to turn it on2026-04-21
  • reviews2★We booked online but we had no seats booked and we have to reach early to get a seat on bus which is not really helpful. Saw some of the passengers struggling also as they booked seats but were being almost harassed for not having a seat in person but they actually booked online and the bus personnel have no idea nor did they speak english. A total mess2026-06-04
  • reviews2★Got us from A to B pretty much on time. Staff were helpful enough and not rude. The bus was a bit run down with broken seats etc. The main problem was the AC was very poor which made the journey a little unpleasant.2026-06-15
  • reviews2★It was very hot on the bus and the driver smoke a LOT of times2026-06-27
  • reviews2★Too hot!!!2026-06-28
  • reviews2★The website itself is great. But 3 of us bought a ticket and the bus station refused to use our tickets and stated we need a physical copy in hand from the bus station, so we had to buy a second ticket2026-07-19
  • reviews2★The first bus was late so we missed the next one… NOT COOL. We got home 5 hours later then we should have!!2026-07-30
  • reviews2★Overpriced for an old bus and hectic organisation. Not to be repeated.2026-08-14
  • reviews2★Poco aire acondicionado. Paradas no previstas. Y demorado, perdimos excursión2026-08-26
  • reviews3★Goof2024-09-02
  • reviews3★The bus was very old, filthy and generally very uncomfortable - I have bruises on my legs from the seat pressing into them, plus if anyone reclines at all then there is no space at all. Also, the bus stopped far too many times, which was annoying. Multiple times they picked up people, even though there were no seats available, so those people ended up standing in the aisles imposing on the original passenger's space. The multiple stops seemed totally unnecessary too, turning a 4 hour trip (which could probably be 3) into a 5.5 hour trip. It was also almost thirty mins late departing from the original station in Tirana.2024-09-04
  • reviews3★The driver made multiple unscheduled stops. I arrived at my location and hour later than the time that was recorded. There was no communication from the driver about the stops and everyone started to get off the bus before the final stop without warning2024-09-05
  • reviews3★El chófer manejaba mut rápido2024-09-05
  • reviews3★Buona organizzazione2024-09-13
  • reviews3★The driver stopped the van for a long break. He also picked up parts and delivered them to businesses on his route. The caused us to be late to our destination.2025-01-15
  • reviews3★The buses are quite outdated, but more importantly they are often not clean. Especially the windows where people rest their heads, filthy!2025-04-15
  • reviews3★The bus company were very rude. Our taxi was late so we did not get there until 5 minutes prior to departure. The man in the ticket office said “it is not his f***ing problem” once on the bus 20 minutes into the journey they checked our tickets and my bag had ripped mine in half. He spoke very rude about us in Albanian and told me to get of the bus and I was not welcome. Bus was pulled over by the police and staff did not make anyone aware what was going on and why we stopped unexpectedly for half an hour on a full and hot bus for 5 hour journey2025-06-01
  • reviews3★Ok ,should be better aircondition2025-06-05
  • reviews3★Although the bus left on time it was delayed on both trips. I wish it would have been cleaner. Also, would have appreciated if the driver would inform the passengers if an unexpected stop had to be made or the break duration half way through the trip.2025-06-15
  • reviews3★Bus was old and smelly and the air con didn’t really work.2025-07-04
  • reviews3★The journey was longer than expected, both ways so it should be calculate that way. (5 hours instead if 4) but overall it was Okay2025-07-14
  • reviews3★I rode a bus from Tirana to Sarande. The staff was rude, the bus was late leaving and 2 hours late arriving, it was hot, cramped, and they didn't stop for FOUR hours to let us use a bathroom. So not the best experience but it got us to where we needed to go so that's a plus.2025-07-29
  • reviews3★First the 4 euros extra for booking are not so ideal. The bus station is not a bus station but a parking lot and it is not obvious where to go. It should be more explained if someone book online.not toilets on the bus for a 5 hours ride is also wild.2025-07-30
  • reviews3★Bus clean and confortable but tirana to saranda took over 5:30 hours instead of 4, and no charging station for phones. the delay made the journey really hard to bear.2025-08-06
  • reviews3★Generally positive, but the bus arrived to Saranda an hour later than promised.2025-08-06
  • reviews3★Too noisy, air conditioning does not work well, the trip is too long. No toilets in the bus is really hard and no information about the stop.2025-08-08
  • reviews3★Shouting between staff and staff and customer2025-08-19
  • reviews3★El bus era muy incómodo, mal mantenido, la suspensión inexistente. Cada bache que tomaba se sentía en los riñones. El aire acondicionado deficiente, la limpieza nula. El trato de los conductores, de lo más prepotentes. La verdad que no elegiría Tisa nunca más. Nos dejaron el Sarande en una calle en el centro sin siquiera darnos alguna explicación. Tuvimos que sacar las valijas nosotros de adentro del bus. Una experiencia desastrosa.2025-09-08
  • reviews3★The bus started off warm and progressively got way too warm throughout the journey. The toilet on board also didn’t work but it was efficient with getting us there and was very cheap2025-09-11
  • reviews3★The bus was scheduled to depart at 16:00 and the driver advised us to go there at 15:30. We did as we suggested but the bus eventually departed at 16:20.2025-09-21
  • reviews3★Too much stops in the middle2025-10-12
  • reviews3★The return bus was terrible. It was a small van. It was completely full and I was squeezed into the back row. I felt very cramped between two big men. One man had a strong body odor. This lasted for five hours. It was torture. You need a bigger buses. Don't pack a lot of people into a van. I really wish Flix buses in Albania.2025-11-04
  • reviews3★Van was comfortable and we arrived close to our on time but the break was longer than driver said, he smoked while he drive and he yelled at us to get out of the bus and had no idea the bus was at the end. Also check in I had QR code and was told I needed my online receipt. Luckily I had it. Not very nice. A lot of frustrated yelling.2026-02-24
  • reviews3★The estimated travel time was not accurate, so for my trip to Tirana from Saranda I was late to my bus and missed my ticket slot. On the way to Saranda from Tirana it also took about two hours longer than expected. Driver from Saranda was smoking in the van the whole time.2026-03-22
  • reviews3★Buying tickets was the best part of the journey. The whole experience was less enjoyable. Printed Gjirafa tickets I should have exchanged to the local ticket in a small cabin at the station (which is an extra step in a process). The tickets told us to come 30 minutes before departure time, so we spent it in the heat, hiding in a shadow of the bus (there is no roof whatsoever). The vehicle floor was sticky, air conditioners almost didn’t work, so 4 hours of medium range suffering and we were at Saranda. Safely though, thanks to the driver. There was a sanitary stop in the middle of the journey which was nice, opportunity to buy water and clean toilets.2026-08-10
  • reviews3★The quality of the buses could be improved. We were unable to adjust our seats and the air conditioning was not appropriate. I was also concerned to see the driver smoking while driving, as this raised safety concerns.2026-08-11
  • reviews3★This is our first time with this company… C’était notre première fois. Nous devions arriver à 12:45… et sommes arrivés à 2:23….2026-08-12
  • reviews3★So it a bus I know but the orginizer gave the same buss seat to three people including me then he put me in a very bad seat, the air conditioner was extremely bad it was a nightmare for the journey between Durres and salande2026-08-24
  • reviews4★Departure was on time! The break was a little bit too long in our opinion. So at the end we weren't on time in Saranda. The driver was good and we had a ventilated vehicle.2024-08-25
  • reviews4★Decent enough booking process. Departure and arrival times ought to be more accurate.2024-09-12
  • reviews4★Had to change bus right before start after sitting in another one for about one hour, staff could be more polite2024-09-14
  • reviews4★The staff were helpful however we had to change to a smaller bus which was quite old and not very nice but then we had to change back to the bigger bus which was somewhat newer which I was happy about. Overall it was pretty good.2024-09-21
  • reviews4★It was great to have the opportunity to pay for the ticket online. More details about the procedure to verify the online ticket at the bus station would be very helpful2024-09-24

  • reviews4★Good2024-11-05
  • reviews4★The process went fairly smooth. There was a lot we didn’t know and we expected are large bus but the sprinter van was fine.2024-11-09
  • reviews4★the experience was good on the bus. I would recommend having signage at South and North terminal station. The only reason I found where to check in was because a staff member was standing there and asked me. Then he told me which direction to find the bus but it is so hectic at that station I think the buses also need better signage.2024-12-02
  • reviews4★Only positive impressions! I really liked everything! A couple of recommendations, though: • Don’t drive too fast, as it’s important to be as cautious as possible in the mountains; • Basic knowledge of English would be helpful for the drivers.2025-01-13

  • reviews4★Good. But staff is not very friendly2025-04-30
  • reviews4★The driver was really rude, not friendly at all! Wanted to ask him to change the AC tempreture a bit higher, he pretended he can not READ and he sent me away. So the staff is definitely NOT a pleasent experience. He also didn’t mention where and WHEN will we stop, everyone were just waiting the bus to stop for a break (go to toilet, eat etc..) it would have been nice if the driver at the start of the journey could inform us about this.2025-05-21

Wie is wie/wat? Chauffeur rookt achter het stuur tijdens de rit, diverse keren. Geen communicatie tijdens een stop. Hoe lang blijven we bij het restaurant?2025-06-22
  • reviews4★Bus was quite warm, aircon didn‘t work too well. And if you‘re over 190cm - you simply dont fit in the seats. Luckily there were empty seats, so i could solve that Problem. But staff was nice, booking was easy, so all in all a good experience.2025-06-26

  • reviews4★Bus came on time. Air conditioning was working just fine. One bus stop in 5 hours is good.2025-08-25
  • reviews4★Seats too Small2025-08-25
  • reviews4★There were a few people who bought tickets and weren't able to get on the bus or were offered to sit on the floor (some did!) Is this double-selling or a faulty reservation system? Regardless this HAS to be fixed- btw these weren't $1-2 cheap tix but almost $20 (which can get me from DC to NYC). Once we got on the bus the ride was alright, AC was working and all was good...until the bus side panel holding all the suitcases flew open and a bunch of luggage (including mine) went flying down the road. This caused an almost 2 hour delay though thankfully there were no injuries or accidents beyond 1 destroyed and 1 lost suitcase. Girafa: make sure the buses have enough seats for all of us and are operationally sound...2025-08-25

  • reviews4★Small bus with no leg room. People jammed in with luggage in the aisles as not enough room in the back. Driver was good but arrived late. Not sure if this was related to the extra stops that were made. Made it safe and sound.2025-10-24
  • reviews4★Print the addresses of the offices/kiosks where you have to go to collect tickets on the electronic ticket confirmation (especially for Tirana North/South terminal as it is a very large area and very chaotic for people who are not used to it).2025-11-27

  • reviews4★I booked my ride from tirana to Saranda and back, and overall it was a good experience. Though a little bit here and there, like the bus didn’t had proper working AC for the ride back, so was a bit hot. Good thing the weather was nice. The ride from tirana to Saranda was but the mini van was a bit dirty. But overall a good experience.2026-05-06

  • reviews4★The bus was very old, without toilet in a large journey and the aconditioned air insuficiente. It is not aprópiate to get tickets Edith the number of seats just in the ticket office ( we had just a qr )2026-06-21
  • reviews4★Globalement tout s'est très bien passé ! Le document fourni avec les informations de voyage que j'avais imprimé ne semblait pas toujours très clair pour les chauffeurs de navettes pour ou vers l'aéroport...2026-06-27
  • reviews4★Overall fine for the price. The aircon was not very efficient and although ok when cooler nearer the coast, leaving Tirana in 34/35 degrees was uncomfortable. This must be awful in August. The driver needs to be more assertive about explaining the length of break ( he was clearly very annoyed with the individuals who held up departure for the 2nd leg by 15+ minutes. Good for him, I would have gone without them!)2026-06-30
  • reviews4★We left Tirana with 15 minutes delay, we do not know why. It might help if the colleagues could speak English. The overall experience is OK.2026-07-07

  • reviews5★Your booking system is excellent. The bus company was not. The driver Smoking while driving Constantly using his phone, at times with both hands off the steering wheel and he exceeded the speed limit countless times. It was only because of warnings from the flashing lights of approaching vehicles he slowed down. The air conditioning on the bus was inadequate.2025-06-29
  • reviews5★Exceptional service and professionalism We traveled with Classic Company from Kopyevo to Ohrid, and everything was smooth, fast, and very comfortable. The night ride was handled by a highly professional driver who made the trip feel safe and easy. Our next trip was from Ohrid to Tirana, scheduled for 6 AM. Due to a language barrier with some of the staff, we accidentally boarded the wrong bus — we were told it was going to Tirana, but it turned out our actual bus was a different one. What happened next truly surprised us: the company arranged a private transfer just for the two of us. The car came all the way from their office (about 30 minutes from the border), picked us up, and drove us across the border into Albania and all the way to Tirana — a 3-hour trip! Possibly, no one else had booked that bus, but still — they didn’t cancel it. They honored our tickets and provided a magical level of service that we had never seen before. We are extremely grateful and impressed. Highly recommended!2025-06-30

  • reviews1★reported thisAwful experience - two buses broke down and the drivers were rude and unfriendly. Tried to separate the group even though there was space and then charge for my ticket twice in order to be kept on the same coach.

  • reviews2★reported thisThere is no answer when assistance is needed. Got thrown out of the bus eventhough we had booked online. They gave our places to some local who bought tickets on the station prior departure. This was for the bus Saranda-Tirana. No help from the agency in Saranda. Sent email to gjirafa travel but no responsen.2024-09-09
  • reviews2★reported thisI don’t understand why I should pre book a ticket with apple wallet function. At the bus, thej wanted to see the mejl (several times) - not the apple wallet tickets. What was the point with the bar code? I had no reserved seat, and had to wait outside the bus for 1/2 an hour, and after persons with reserved sests entered the bus I could choose among the remaining seats. In Sweden, if you pay with an app, you immediately recieve a ticket in your apole wallet with reservated seat number - on the bus they just scan the bar code.2026-07-18

  • reviews1★We booked a ticket for a train from Sarande to Tirana airport and they offered two buses with a transfer in between (they said the transfer was a 22 minute drive and that’s it, no other information about the transfer from one bus to another). We would have been better off getting the one bus and then a taxi ourselves rather than getting the first bus, taking a taxi going back on ourselves for the second bus (the taxi to the second bus was the same cost as the taxi to the airport!). The taxi to the airport was also about 25 mins whereas the second bus took an hour!!!! Not practical at all and just added stress!2024-10-13

  • reviews1★I had the worst experience with this company. When my friend and I arrived at the bus, the driver took both of our suitcases and loaded them onto the bus – we saw this with our own eyes. The bus itself was in terrible condition – honestly, it was falling apart. During the drive, the driver was texting and talking on the phone, which is completely unacceptable. And without exaggerating, we were driving at 30 km/h for over an hour on the highway. On top of that, the bus randomly stopped twice in the middle of the road for no reason. With about an hour left of the trip, the driver came to the back of the bus and handed me his phone. A man on the line told me in English that they had found my suitcase in the middle of the street in Sarandë. I explained that this was not my responsibility, as I had trusted the driver to load it – which both of us had clearly seen him do. When the driver was informed about the situation, he started yelling at me, saying it was my fault, and completely denied having done anything wrong. He took no responsibility at all and was extremely rude and aggressive in the way he spoke to me. They offered to send the suitcase with the next bus, but I wasn’t going to receive it in time before my flight. It all turned into a huge mess, and I ended up having to book a new flight for the next day – and pay for a hotel – just to get my luggage back. To make things worse, the other bus driver who brought my suitcase demanded €10 for doing so. I will never travel back and will absolutely never use this company again. It was a truly awful experience. This was yesterday at 09:302025-06-07
  • reviews1★I purchased a ticket for a journey from Saranda to Tirana Airport on June 8th. I bought a ticket for a bus departing from Saranda at 17:00. The system automatically created two separate tickets. The first one was for Saranda to Tirana Terminal (departure at 17:00 – arrival at 21:20). The second one was from Tirana Terminal to Tirana Airport (departure at 22:00 – arrival at 22:30). There was only a 40-minute gap between the two trips, and I only found out the details of the second trip after I had already made the purchase. However, the bus from Saranda arrived at the terminal at 23:00. The terminal, I later learned, closes at 22:00. When I arrived, there were no vehicles available. I was left stranded. Moreover, I paid €8 for 2 people for the terminal-to-airport transfer and an additional €4 service fee — a total of €12 wasted.2025-06-09
  • reviews1★I had purchased two bus tickets from sarande to Tirana airport. So there was a transfer. The bus was very late getting to Tirana and so we were stranded at the bus terminal. The driver should have put us in a cab and paid for it.2025-06-09

  • reviews1★Terrible. You sold the same bus tickets we had bought days before, to other customers in the last half hour before departure . We arrived before few minutes before departure of the bus, but our seats were just re-sold. So we were obliged to travel with the next bus two hours after.. it causing great problems to us.2025-07-14

  • reviews1★The bus was overbooked. So instead of going 10:45, we went 11:45. And we didn’t even get picked up in a bus. It was a mini van. There wasn’t room for all of us again. So some people had to wait even longer for the next bus even though they had a ticket for 10:45. The condition of the minivan was atrocious. Really bad The booking on gjirafa website was nice and easy The rest. Really bad2025-08-04
  • reviews1★They were very polite until you bought the ticket, but I can't begin to describe their rudeness here! A young blonde man with black sunglasses waiting at the Saranda bus stop. A perverted young man who gave priority to beautiful women and yelled and scolded others who asked questions! Due to my bureaucratic duties, I kept quiet that day to avoid getting into trouble! I've never seen someone both rude and perverted in my life, so this was a lesson learned! Saturday, August 2nd, 10:45 AM bus from Saranda to Tirana. I was one of the customers in two groups, A1 and A2. The pervert was organizing the red bus. Don't give these kinds of perverts any business, dear authorities!2025-08-05

  • reviews1★Booking process was simple enough, although the travel was so bad. Bus was overbooked, so the bus company provided 2 extra buses - great, but because of that we didn’t leave until nearly 1,5hours later that we meant to. Nobody once was apologetic and bothered that we have a flight to catch. We literally just made it to the airport, were late for a transfer bus and ended up paying extra for a new one (even that we had one booked via gijrafa). Buses in both directions were very uncomfortable and no leg space whatsoever. So thinking that if you leave Saranda at 10:45 to catch the flight in Tirana at 8pm, which gives over 9 hours, was completely wrong.2025-08-16

  • reviews1★I took the bus from Tirana to Saranda in Albania, but it wasn't easy to find the bus stop when leaving the airport. I actually had to take a taxi for 20 minutes once I arrived at the airport to get to the bus stop. Given how complicated the process was, I almost missed my bus, and the same thing happened on the way back. You have to go to a tourist office before boarding the bus. It's not enough to have already bought your bus ticket. The process is complicated for no good reason. My driver was not at all friendly and didn't bother to explain anything to me, even though we didn't speak the same language, and of course I missed the bus. I lost money and had to pay €170 for taxis to get to the airport. It was an obstacle course both ways because of the complicated system for no good reason, the lack of information, the fact that it was poorly signposted, and the lack of professionalism of the drivers. I do not recommend it!2025-09-21
  • reviews1★Bus was overbooked despite us purchasing tickets the day before online and getting the paper tickets 1 hour before the departure time. We were 29-30 seats but some people were already on the bus coming from Ksamil. They had been given the same seats. There was no seat for my companion. The driver aggressively shouted at people, including us. Finally one woman had enough and left which opened up the seat for my companion. This experience tarnished my view of Albania and I decided I will recommend private transfers to everyone. Absolutely astonishing experience.2025-09-21

  • reviews1★I am a person who travels a lot. Different cities, different countries, different cultures. But I have never felt as insecure traveling as I did with this company. The driver was speeding for long stretches of the route, exceding the limits (I recorded qith Google Maps to control the speed of it, so it wasn'tjust a felling). On our trip, there was an over-sale of tickets, forcing people to travel standing or sitting on the floor for long hours, on routes full of curves, ups and downs. It seems to me to be the worst service that has ever existed, without naming that the law has been broke in different aspects.2026-06-20

  • reviews1★Transport in Albania is run by greedy people who avoid tolls and go on busy roads to save money, tell you it is a direct service when they pick up and drop off people along the way, do parcel deliveries along the way, take twice as long to finish a journey than it would take to go there directly AND if that wasn't bad enough, they do it all without air conditioning. You are expected to waste your time on a bus and drip in sweat with your legs up high in the air because of their greed, instead of being out there enjoying your life or working etc. Their greed and inability to take someone from A to B in a quick and efficient manner, stops everyone else from prospering. Further they stop fir a break for 20 minutes because they are taking so long to complete the journey. When the last bus leaves at 4pm, you don't have time to do all the things you wanted to do at your destination. You don't spend money at the restaurants there or visit all the tourist attractions because you don't have time. You can't use the bus yo go to work or do business because by the time you arrive at your destination half your day is gone and you are dripping in sweat. These greedy people make everyone poor. Even when there are later buses, there is only one at 10pm, so you are stuck travelling at night and then there is no transport for you to go home from tye bus station and you are forced to get ripped off by taxi drivers that charge you three times as much. The sad thing is that the transport is not even cheap. You are just paying a lot to waste your time and be uncomfortable.2026-07-03
  • reviews1★I booked four bus tickets from Saranda to Tirana online with Gjirafa Travel. On the day we went as advised half an hour early to the Saranda office in ith our luggage. The man inside the Gjirafa office told us we needed to get a taxi or walk to the bus terminus. We asked him if he could take us or else find us a taxi himself as we didn’t know from where to grab a taxi. He told us curtly we would have to find our own taxi so he did not lift a finger to assist us. Finally we managed to Gail a taxi who took us with barely enough time to go to the bus terminus where we showed the office personnel the online order and they gave us the seat allocation. All in all very disgraceful behaviour a. Will never book through Gjirafa travel ever again.2026-07-09
  • reviews1★The staff were extremely rude. We arrived 30 minutes before departure, but they shouted at us, claiming we were late. Despite already having valid online tickets, they insisted that we had to collect paper tickets from another booth. Instead of simply accepting our tickets, they took a photo of them and sent it to someone on WhatsApp. When the bus arrived, there were not enough seats for all passengers. I had to argue with the driver, who did not speak English, just to be allowed onto the bus. Even after boarding, we were forced to stand for almost five hours because there were no available seats. This experience was completely unacceptable. I expect a full refund and that a formal complaint be made to the bus company. I would not recommend this service to anyone.2026-07-13

Only speaking with a local we figured out that the bus is not even allowed to get access to the place indicated, and then we take a ride up to the entrance of the city, in the road, in the middle of nowhere, and the bus was very late. I needed to call 3 times for the company operator to confirm if we really were going to have anything on there. After to be on the bus, we discovered that many other people had booked at 3 pm or 5 pm and wait for all the afternoon, and the bus one came at 9 pm. That's a shame, and you should take it out from your website. That's not a serious company at all.2026-08-10

  • reviews1★The ticket purchasing system makes no sense; buying a ticket for a specific date and time doesn't even guarantee you'll be able to travel. It’s completely unclear that after buying, you don't actually receive a ticket, but just a piece of paper that means nothing and has to be exchanged for a real ticket. Nowhere is it stated that you need to go to a counter/office to exchange it, there's only information saying you must arrive 30 minutes early, which tells you absolutely nothing. The staff is neither polite nor helpful. On top of that, the air conditioning on the bus barely works. You should improve the system so that people can buy an actual ticket online with a reserved seat, without the requirement to show up early2026-08-22

Ask the drivers even but a note on the bus store, so people realize they need to go to the office and change the tickets. In our bus, there were total chaos as people did not know this, seat numbers were all over the place and there was also 6 people overbooked to the trip which meant these people sat on the floor for 4,5 hours from Sarande to Tirana. Above this, staff memeber yelling to these poor travellers, even eventually they had done all what was asked but seats were double sold. With very small changes, much can be done!!!2024-09-17
  • reviews2★The ride was direct and smooth and the driver was good at driving; however, there were a number of things that made it an unpleasant experience. 1) The driver smoked frequently throughout the drive. In an enclosed space with no windows, quite bothersome. 2) Assigned seats is fine, but was not clear on website. We -- including my 88 year old mother -- were stuck, crowded 4 across in the back. 3) The bus was overcrowded. People were sitting on crates in the aisle. 4) This left the bus very hot, despite it being comfortable outside. The air vents above we're almost never on and the driver frequently turned on the heat... Leaving the back of the bus painfully warm. We all ended up rather ill by the end of the trip.2025-03-18
  • reviews2★Tirana-Budva bus. It was a bad experience. The bus was scheduled to leave at 5 am, but it departed at about 5:40. At the station, it was revealed that a ticket needed to be printed. This is not stated on the ticket, which caused additional stress. Printing one ticket costs 1 euro. It is expensive and seems like a rip-off, but there is no alternative. I am still not sure that you really need to print the ticket and that this is not a business scheme. I bought a ticket to Petrovac, but the driver said that the bus does not stop there and goes only to Budva and asked: "Will you go?". Of course I will, I am standing at the bus station in Tirana at 5 am! The driver smoked on the bus, but this is a common practice here. The toilets did not work, there was one stop between Tirana and Budva. At 10 am the heat started and it turned out that the air conditioner could not cope with the heat. Two stars just for getting from point A to point B (almost).2025-06-28

  • reviews2★Bus was too hot and air conditioning was not working properly. I booked a ticket from Sarande to Tirana airport. The ticket did not state that you have to go to another area to get to Tirana airport as they do not interchange at the bus station. This is not worth it as you will have to catch another taxi from Tirana bus station to tirana central station to go to Tirana airport. We wasted our money on the second part of this trip as we had not enough time to get to tirana central station so we had to take a taxi from Tirana bus station. Please ensure you communicate this to customers as it is misleading especially when they do not know the country well.2025-09-28

When I booked our trip from Tirana to Sarandë, I accidentally purchased one extra round-trip ticket because my daughter had already purchased her own ticket separately. I realized the mistake immediately and tried several times to contact customer support by message, email, and phone to cancel the extra ticket, but I was never able to reach anyone or receive assistance. The outbound trip went smoothly. We received QR codes, and the boarding process was simple. Unfortunately, the return trip was completely different. We did not receive QR codes for the return, and we were unaware that check-in had to be completed at least 30 minutes before departure. The process was not as clear as it had been for the outbound trip. As a result, my two children and I, including myself as a disabled traveler, were unable to use the seats we had purchased. We spent much of the five-hour journey standing or sitting on the floor, which was very difficult and not what we expected after purchasing our tickets in advance. I hope the company improves its customer support and makes the check-in process more consistent and clearly communicated between outbound and return trips. I also hope they will consider refunding the extra ticket I tried to cancel and providing appropriate compensation for the return trip. Despite this experience, we truly enjoyed our visit to Albania and hope future travelers have a smoother experience.2026-06-30
  • reviews2★The driver on the way from sarande to tirana was very rude, he yelled at us because we had the nerve to get back on the bus after the break😅 He started smashing the seats and cursing at us. Not recommending this experience!2026-07-06
  • reviews2★The ticket said we need to go the butrinti office 30 minutes before the departure. Turns out you dont need anything from there, we went there just to be informed that we have to get somewhere else (where we actually came from). So it was a waste of time and money. They said that we should get a taxi, and becuse there were many people for the same reason we thought we can get a cab together then to save money, but the taxi driver said that he only takes two people at a time (there was enough place for 4 people). The 30 minutes is probably given, so you cant walk to the station. Fortunately, we were early, at the station they said that we only have to be there 10 minutes before. So its a complete scam.2026-07-08
  • reviews2★Very crowed buses and not on time. Be sure to take an early bus. Would be nice if the left from the airport.2026-07-25
  • reviews2★You sold 2 ticket from samandra to tiarans and then s tickets to the airport. We were dropped in middle of nowhere and did have to taxi. Very bad job2026-07-31

  • reviews3★Chaotic check in , the bus stop it wasn’t clear , the staff was disorganized and rude. I don’t recommend2024-09-06
  • reviews3★As i booked on line i didn’t realise i still needed to check in and get another ticket. It wasn’t on the instructions but luckily they still let me on but they almost didn’t. I arrived 30 mins beforehand as well and asked someone but no one mentioned going to an office so i knew non the less.2024-09-11

  • reviews3★Sono molto gentili,ma mi hanno avvisata all' ultimo che il bus da me prenotato non ci sarebbe stato,hanno provato ad aiutarmi e alla fine sono riuscita a prendere quello precedente ma se non ce l' avessi fatta non so come avrei fatto,se la corsa non c'è non dovrebbe essere nelle opzioni. Il customer care però è stato veramente molto gentile e disponibile2024-11-13

  • reviews3★Air conditioning on the bus from Saranda to Tirana was not strong enough.2025-06-27
  • reviews3★We had problems to get the second bus before the first bus had been late. But even if we would have arrived in time it seems impossible to reach a bus in Tirana central station when you only have 40 minutes to get there from Tirana north south station, so I really don't know why you are offering such tickets2025-07-17
  • reviews3★The bus left on time which was very good. Also the bus company let to change the time of the tickets. The bus was a bit worn out, it smelled a bit of mould. Also it was weird that the bus took the gasoline when the passengers were on board not before and it stopped in random places to take more passengers on although there was no place. Therefor the journey was longer as well.2025-08-02
  • reviews3★The ride took 6 hours instead of 4 so we almost missed our flight, the seats were extremely uncomfortable and the air condition was not working well.2025-08-11
  • reviews3★Guaranteed seat is completely misleading. The bus company couldn’t care less. They told me that there is only 2 seats left, and I had to wait 1,5h for the next bus. Digitalization is an alien term for the Albanian transportation.2025-08-18

  • reviews3★Hi. We were not explained on where the bus will drop us and that we still need to travel to the airport. The driver just stopped and told us that is the depot.2025-08-27
  • reviews3★The journey went well but the organization for boarding the bus was not good. We purchased our ticket online. Arriving at the bus stop I show my ticket online, a person lets me board the bus. 10 minutes later she asks to check then makes us get off the bus. He was wrong about the destination. There we want to take another bus and we are told to go to a counter to exchange our online ticket for a paper ticket. 15 min wait. I thought the bus was going to wait for me and so I put my luggage in this other bus which went well to Tirana. Anyway, the bus left with our suitcases! A gentleman immediately called the driver and we finally collected our luggage. Departure was announced at 10:45 a.m. arrival at 3 p.m. in Tirana. We left at 11:15 a.m. and arrived at 4 p.m.2025-09-01
  • reviews3★1) It was necessary to arrive 30 minutes early but the driver only opened the door at the picket time, even dit was raining. The bus departed some minutes late. 2) there is no wifi or energy inside the bus 3) the stop time in the middle of the journey was not correct. The departure was late again 4) the arrival time was late2025-10-17
  • reviews3★very old bus. uncomfortable ride.2026-06-13
  • reviews3★Firstly it was an hour late arriving at least, secondly the seats were unbelievably uncomfortable and cramped. Bus driver needs an attitude adjustment. The stop was way too long, especially that we were already late.2026-06-22
  • reviews3★It is disappointing to see they STILL fill the buses over the capacity and that the safety still isn’t good enough. I was moved from my seat to the seat next to the driver, which is ok, but the seatbelt didn’t work, and it would have felt a bit safer sitting upfront with a belt on, as the traffic-culture is rather ‘heated’ 😬😂 Aircontitioning could definetly be better, but hey- at least this this there was one ;)2026-07-07
  • reviews3★The journey was correct, but the ticket and website didn't warn that the office and pick up point has changed, I had to take a taxi to arrive at time.2026-07-09

  • reviews4★Easy to buy but more tips about needing to check in and directions would be helpful2024-09-21
  • reviews4★The booking process and the payment have become much quicker, that is great. It would be great if the online ticket would work at the bus right away instead of going to the ticket office still to get a manually issued paper ticket, especially when there are many tourists and long lines. Overall though every driver and every ticket office clerk has been very friendly and helpful, thank you for that! I will always prefer the bus for my many travels in Albania!!2024-11-13

  • reviews4★I was surprised with the E ticket we had to check in and manually written in a list and allocated a seat number and issued a manual/hand written ticket? It also would have been easier to be told that we had to check in with the E ticket2025-09-11
  • reviews4★The travel information was complicated to understand. I was going from sadande to tirana airport, while booking it said there was a change or transfer but for the transfer I would have to change from tirana north and south to tirana central station which was 7km away. This was very confusing because actually it was very easy, the bus from the same travel provider was directly from the north and south bus stop itself and there was no change of station. It was change of bus at the same station.2025-09-14
  • reviews4★The driver did a great job but the bus was a bit dirty and the curtains needed washed quite badly.2025-11-22
  • reviews4★late departure but the driver was fast so we arrive still close to the arrival time. i just dont get it, why i still need to go to the ticket office after buying to secure my seat if it is already a guaranteed seat. if it just the same way i could just buy direct to the ticketing office and save for the online booking fee.2025-11-27
  • reviews4★In the bus from Tirana to Saranda and vice versa seats are much too small to sit next to each other - compared to larger busses.2026-01-09

  • reviews4★It might be good to receive number of place at once in electronic ticket and have opportunity to choose the place. Not understandable while I having an electronic ticket should have a check in and to receive a paper with number if my place. Several times during the trip the bus stopped due to the technical reason. It might be good to fix all technical issues before the trip.2026-06-03
  • reviews4★Nice experience, good driver .2026-06-21
  • reviews4★Lots of confusion, there were three different busses going from Sarande to Tirane and the drivers had no clue what bus we were supposed to be on. They sent us to the correct one 5 minutes before departure and thankfully we got two seats together but some people were separated from their group.2026-06-23
  • reviews4★The positive thing is that we had a garanteed seat, which is why we choose to travel with you, since we didn’t had that on the other bus on the outward journey. And we had a pause in the half of the journey, what was good too. But what I didn’t like was that the bus was very old and not so clean. And the air conditioner was not working so well.2026-06-23
  • reviews4★Buena atención! El personal me resolvió un problema con mi Ticket que perdí. Sin embargo, pienso que no deberían trabajar con compañías poco formales como el bus de Saranda a Tirana . Posterior a ello me cambiaron la categoría del bus que había comprado inicialmente (qué era más barato) .2026-06-23

  • reviews5★My opinion is that Gjirafa Travel itself, as the website where the tickets are purchased, works very well. My problem was with Trans Butrinti, since they assigned me the back seat even though I purchased my tickets 3 months in advance - bear in mind the back seats are 5 in total and very close to each other. Also, these seats can't be reclined given it is the last row. 2 ladies bought their tickets right after me, since they did not have an existing reservation like I did, and they were still given front reclinable seats. They should prioritize passengers with existing reservations or let passengers choose their seat while the are buying the tickets online. Lastly, they allow for a couple passengers to travel standing, which is very dangerous.2025-07-16

  • reviews1★reported thisI had the worst experience with this company. When my friend and I arrived at the bus, the driver took both of our suitcases and loaded them onto the bus – we saw this with our own eyes. The bus itself was in terrible condition – honestly, it was falling apart. During the drive, the driver was texting and talking on the phone, which is completely unacceptable. And without exaggerating, we were driving at 30 km/h for over an hour on the highway. On top of that, the bus randomly stopped twice in the middle of the road for no reason. With about an hour left of the trip, the driver came to the back of the bus and handed me his phone. A man on the line told me in English that they had found my suitcase in the middle of the street in Sarandë. I explained that this was not my responsibility, as I had trusted the driver to load it – which both of us had clearly seen him do. When the driver was informed about the situation, he started yelling at me, saying it was my fault, and completely denied having done anything wrong. He took no responsibility at all and was extremely rude and aggressive in the way he spoke to me. They offered to send the suitcase with the next bus, but I wasn’t going to receive it in time before my flight. It all turned into a huge mess, and I ended up having to book a new flight for the next day – and pay for a hotel – just to get my luggage back. To make things worse, the other bus driver who brought my suitcase demanded €10 for doing so. I will never travel back and will absolutely never use this company again. It was a truly awful experience. This was yesterday at 09:302025-06-07
  • reviews1★reported thisThey were very polite until you bought the ticket, but I can't begin to describe their rudeness here! A young blonde man with black sunglasses waiting at the Saranda bus stop. A perverted young man who gave priority to beautiful women and yelled and scolded others who asked questions! Due to my bureaucratic duties, I kept quiet that day to avoid getting into trouble! I've never seen someone both rude and perverted in my life, so this was a lesson learned! Saturday, August 2nd, 10:45 AM bus from Saranda to Tirana. I was one of the customers in two groups, A1 and A2. The pervert was organizing the red bus. Don't give these kinds of perverts any business, dear authorities!2025-08-05
  • reviews1★reported thisAwful experience - two buses broke down and the drivers were rude and unfriendly. Tried to separate the group even though there was space and then charge for my ticket twice in order to be kept on the same coach. Pay the extra for a taxi to the airport - promise it isn’t worth the stress!2025-09-16
  • reviews1★reported thisI took the bus from Tirana to Saranda in Albania, but it wasn't easy to find the bus stop when leaving the airport. I actually had to take a taxi for 20 minutes once I arrived at the airport to get to the bus stop. Given how complicated the process was, I almost missed my bus, and the same thing happened on the way back. You have to go to a tourist office before boarding the bus. It's not enough to have already bought your bus ticket. The process is complicated for no good reason. My driver was not at all friendly and didn't bother to explain anything to me, even though we didn't speak the same language, and of course I missed the bus. I lost money and had to pay €170 for taxis to get to the airport. It was an obstacle course both ways because of the complicated system for no good reason, the lack of information, the fact that it was poorly signposted, and the lack of professionalism of the drivers. I do not recommend it!2025-09-21
  • reviews1★reported thisBus was overbooked despite us purchasing tickets the day before online and getting the paper tickets 1 hour before the departure time. We were 29-30 seats but some people were already on the bus coming from Ksamil. They had been given the same seats. There was no seat for my companion. The driver aggressively shouted at people, including us. Finally one woman had enough and left which opened up the seat for my companion. This experience tarnished my view of Albania and I decided I will recommend private transfers to everyone. Absolutely astonishing experience.2025-09-21

  • reviews1★reported thisI booked four bus tickets from Saranda to Tirana online with Gjirafa Travel. On the day we went as advised half an hour early to the Saranda office in ith our luggage. The man inside the Gjirafa office told us we needed to get a taxi or walk to the bus terminus. We asked him if he could take us or else find us a taxi himself as we didn’t know from where to grab a taxi. He told us curtly we would have to find our own taxi so he did not lift a finger to assist us. Finally we managed to Gail a taxi who took us with barely enough time to go to the bus terminus where we showed the office personnel the online order and they gave us the seat allocation. All in all very disgraceful behaviour a. Will never book through Gjirafa travel ever again.2026-07-09
  • reviews1★reported thisThe staff were extremely rude. We arrived 30 minutes before departure, but they shouted at us, claiming we were late. Despite already having valid online tickets, they insisted that we had to collect paper tickets from another booth. Instead of simply accepting our tickets, they took a photo of them and sent it to someone on WhatsApp. When the bus arrived, there were not enough seats for all passengers. I had to argue with the driver, who did not speak English, just to be allowed onto the bus. Even after boarding, we were forced to stand for almost five hours because there were no available seats. This experience was completely unacceptable. I expect a full refund and that a formal complaint be made to the bus company. I would not recommend this service to anyone.2026-07-13
  • reviews1★reported thisDesk personnel was rude and non helpful. Nobody told us about the shuttle that takes passengers from downtown to the bus station.

  • reviews1★reported thisThe bus driver was fighting with a drunk passenger and there was not enough seats for all of us, so 2 girls was sitting on the floor while we where driving.

  • reviews1★reported thisDiamant travel agency experience was absolutely diabolical. The staff (not the bus driver he was so sweet) at the station were absolutely nasty. The bus broke down and was stranded on the side of the road for 5 hours without any water or bathrooms for the entirety of the evening into the night, no replacement bus and the company would not respond to our asks for help or the bus drivers. Arrived 6 hours late. Majority of the people on the bus said the woman manning the front desk and responding to WhatsApp messages (once and never again) was incredibly rude. I would not recommend this company to my worst enemy. Will be seeking refund.2026-08-12
  • reviews1★reported thisVery stressful and confusing experience overall with the bus we booked go Tirana from Sarande. In the email Girafa confirmed to first go to the agency of the bus company but on Google maps the agency is in a different location than the actual bud terminal where they later sent us to check in. We booked two tickets together but didn't get seats next to each other despite checking in almost one hour early. The staff and driver were rude and aggressive. Will not book this again2026-08-19
  • reviews1★reported thisThe ticket purchasing system makes no sense; buying a ticket for a specific date and time doesn't even guarantee you'll be able to travel. It’s completely unclear that after buying, you don't actually receive a ticket, but just a piece of paper that means nothing and has to be exchanged for a real ticket. Nowhere is it stated that you need to go to a counter/office to exchange it, there's only information saying you must arrive 30 minutes early, which tells you absolutely nothing. The staff is neither polite nor helpful. On top of that, the air conditioning on the bus barely works. You should improve the system so that people can buy an actual ticket online with a reserved seat, without the requirement to show up early2026-08-22
  • reviews2★reported thisYou need to update the instructions in your email & webpage regarding how you need to change the e-ticket to actual bus ticket in the station. Write it clearly, in all communication!! Ask the drivers even but a note on the bus store, so people realize they need to go to the office and change the tickets. In our bus, there were total chaos as people did not know this, seat numbers were all over the place and there was also 6 people overbooked to the trip which meant these people sat on the floor for 4,5 hours from Sarande to Tirana. Above this, staff memeber yelling to these poor travellers, even eventually they had done all what was asked but seats were double sold. With very small changes, much can be done!!!2024-09-17
  • reviews2★reported thisIt was very warm in the bus and the air system didn’t work. The bus was not in a good state. There was a problem with the battery. The driver wasn’t really nice and didn’t speak English. After the break, the bus couldn’t start so guys from the bus had to push the bus whole the driver was starting the bus! And the curtains in the bus smelled really bad!2025-10-28

  • reviews1★Very small bus, it was too tight, we took the bus from Tirana to Saranda and back, both buses were very slow and sounded like they were faulty.2024-10-06
  • reviews1★We booked a ticket for a train from Sarande to Tirana airport and they offered two buses with a transfer in between (they said the transfer was a 22 minute drive and that’s it, no other information about the transfer from one bus to another). We would have been better off getting the one bus and then a taxi ourselves rather than getting the first bus, taking a taxi going back on ourselves for the second bus (the taxi to the second bus was the same cost as the taxi to the airport!). The taxi to the airport was also about 25 mins whereas the second bus took an hour!!!! Not practical at all and just added stress!2024-10-13

  • reviews1★I purchased a ticket for a journey from Saranda to Tirana Airport on June 8th. I bought a ticket for a bus departing from Saranda at 17:00. The system automatically created two separate tickets. The first one was for Saranda to Tirana Terminal (departure at 17:00 – arrival at 21:20). The second one was from Tirana Terminal to Tirana Airport (departure at 22:00 – arrival at 22:30). There was only a 40-minute gap between the two trips, and I only found out the details of the second trip after I had already made the purchase. However, the bus from Saranda arrived at the terminal at 23:00. The terminal, I later learned, closes at 22:00. When I arrived, there were no vehicles available. I was left stranded. Moreover, I paid €8 for 2 people for the terminal-to-airport transfer and an additional €4 service fee — a total of €12 wasted.2025-06-09
  • reviews1★I had purchased two bus tickets from sarande to Tirana airport. So there was a transfer. The bus was very late getting to Tirana and so we were stranded at the bus terminal. The driver should have put us in a cab and paid for it.2025-06-09

  • reviews1★Booking process was simple enough, although the travel was so bad. Bus was overbooked, so the bus company provided 2 extra buses - great, but because of that we didn’t leave until nearly 1,5hours later that we meant to. Nobody once was apologetic and bothered that we have a flight to catch. We literally just made it to the airport, were late for a transfer bus and ended up paying extra for a new one (even that we had one booked via gijrafa). Buses in both directions were very uncomfortable and no leg space whatsoever. So thinking that if you leave Saranda at 10:45 to catch the flight in Tirana at 8pm, which gives over 9 hours, was completely wrong.2025-08-16

The driver was speeding for long stretches of the route, exceding the limits (I recorded qith Google Maps to control the speed of it, so it wasn'tjust a felling). On our trip, there was an over-sale of tickets, forcing people to travel standing or sitting on the floor for long hours, on routes full of curves, ups and downs. It seems to me to be the worst service that has ever existed, without naming that the law has been broke in different aspects.2026-06-20

  • reviews1★Transport in Albania is run by greedy people who avoid tolls and go on busy roads to save money, tell you it is a direct service when they pick up and drop off people along the way, do parcel deliveries along the way, take twice as long to finish a journey than it would take to go there directly AND if that wasn't bad enough, they do it all without air conditioning. You are expected to waste your time on a bus and drip in sweat with your legs up high in the air because of their greed, instead of being out there enjoying your life or working etc. Their greed and inability to take someone from A to B in a quick and efficient manner, stops everyone else from prospering. Further they stop fir a break for 20 minutes because they are taking so long to complete the journey. When the last bus leaves at 4pm, you don't have time to do all the things you wanted to do at your destination. You don't spend money at the restaurants there or visit all the tourist attractions because you don't have time. You can't use the bus yo go to work or do business because by the time you arrive at your destination half your day is gone and you are dripping in sweat. These greedy people make everyone poor. Even when there are later buses, there is only one at 10pm, so you are stuck travelling at night and then there is no transport for you to go home from tye bus station and you are forced to get ripped off by taxi drivers that charge you three times as much. The sad thing is that the transport is not even cheap. You are just paying a lot to waste your time and be uncomfortable.2026-07-03

Only speaking with a local we figured out that the bus is not even allowed to get access to the place indicated, and then we take a ride up to the entrance of the city, in the road, in the middle of nowhere, and the bus was very late. I needed to call 3 times for the company operator to confirm if we really were going to have anything on there. After to be on the bus, we discovered that many other people had booked at 3 pm or 5 pm and wait for all the afternoon, and the bus one came at 9 pm. That's a shame, and you should take it out from your website. That's not a serious company at all.2026-08-10

  • reviews2★The ride was direct and smooth and the driver was good at driving; however, there were a number of things that made it an unpleasant experience. 1) The driver smoked frequently throughout the drive. In an enclosed space with no windows, quite bothersome. 2) Assigned seats is fine, but was not clear on website. We -- including my 88 year old mother -- were stuck, crowded 4 across in the back. 3) The bus was overcrowded. People were sitting on crates in the aisle. 4) This left the bus very hot, despite it being comfortable outside. The air vents above we're almost never on and the driver frequently turned on the heat... Leaving the back of the bus painfully warm. We all ended up rather ill by the end of the trip.2025-03-18
  • reviews2★Tirana-Budva bus. It was a bad experience. The bus was scheduled to leave at 5 am, but it departed at about 5:40. At the station, it was revealed that a ticket needed to be printed. This is not stated on the ticket, which caused additional stress. Printing one ticket costs 1 euro. It is expensive and seems like a rip-off, but there is no alternative. I am still not sure that you really need to print the ticket and that this is not a business scheme. I bought a ticket to Petrovac, but the driver said that the bus does not stop there and goes only to Budva and asked: "Will you go?". Of course I will, I am standing at the bus station in Tirana at 5 am! The driver smoked on the bus, but this is a common practice here. The toilets did not work, there was one stop between Tirana and Budva. At 10 am the heat started and it turned out that the air conditioner could not cope with the heat. Two stars just for getting from point A to point B (almost).2025-06-28

  • reviews2★Bus was too hot and air conditioning was not working properly. I booked a ticket from Sarande to Tirana airport. The ticket did not state that you have to go to another area to get to Tirana airport as they do not interchange at the bus station. This is not worth it as you will have to catch another taxi from Tirana bus station to tirana central station to go to Tirana airport. We wasted our money on the second part of this trip as we had not enough time to get to tirana central station so we had to take a taxi from Tirana bus station. Please ensure you communicate this to customers as it is misleading especially when they do not know the country well.2025-09-28
  • reviews2★My nephew ended up sitting in the ground because the bus 2 was overbooked. The driver didn’t check people’s tickets and there were two people (one being my nephew) sitting on the floor for 5 hours. That’s really not acceptable. We all paid for a ticket. He should’ve checked the tickets and the seat numbers.2026-06-28
  • reviews2★Our family enjoyed visiting Albania, but our experience with this bus service was disappointing. When I booked our trip from Tirana to Sarandë, I accidentally purchased one extra round-trip ticket because my daughter had already purchased her own ticket separately. I realized the mistake immediately and tried several times to contact customer support by message, email, and phone to cancel the extra ticket, but I was never able to reach anyone or receive assistance. The outbound trip went smoothly. We received QR codes, and the boarding process was simple. Unfortunately, the return trip was completely different. We did not receive QR codes for the return, and we were unaware that check-in had to be completed at least 30 minutes before departure. The process was not as clear as it had been for the outbound trip. As a result, my two children and I, including myself as a disabled traveler, were unable to use the seats we had purchased. We spent much of the five-hour journey standing or sitting on the floor, which was very difficult and not what we expected after purchasing our tickets in advance. I hope the company improves its customer support and makes the check-in process more consistent and clearly communicated between outbound and return trips. I also hope they will consider refunding the extra ticket I tried to cancel and providing appropriate compensation for the return trip. Despite this experience, we truly enjoyed our visit to Albania and hope future travelers have a smoother experience.2026-06-30
  • reviews2★The ticket said we need to go the butrinti office 30 minutes before the departure. Turns out you dont need anything from there, we went there just to be informed that we have to get somewhere else (where we actually came from). So it was a waste of time and money. They said that we should get a taxi, and becuse there were many people for the same reason we thought we can get a cab together then to save money, but the taxi driver said that he only takes two people at a time (there was enough place for 4 people). The 30 minutes is probably given, so you cant walk to the station. Fortunately, we were early, at the station they said that we only have to be there 10 minutes before. So its a complete scam.2026-07-08
  • reviews2★I don’t understand why I should pre book a ticket with apple wallet function. At the bus, thej wanted to see the mejl (several times) - not the apple wallet tickets. What was the point with the bar code? I had no reserved seat, and had to wait outside the bus for 1/2 an hour, and after persons with reserved sests entered the bus I could choose among the remaining seats. In Sweden, if you pay with an app, you immediately recieve a ticket in your apole wallet with reservated seat number - on the bus they just scan the bar code.2026-07-18
  • reviews2★Very crowed buses and not on time. Be sure to take an early bus. Would be nice if the left from the airport.2026-07-25
  • reviews2★You sold 2 ticket from samandra to tiarans and then s tickets to the airport. We were dropped in middle of nowhere and did have to taxi. Very bad job2026-07-31
  • reviews3★As i booked on line i didn’t realise i still needed to check in and get another ticket. It wasn’t on the instructions but luckily they still let me on but they almost didn’t. I arrived 30 mins beforehand as well and asked someone but no one mentioned going to an office so i knew non the less.2024-09-11

  • reviews3★Sono molto gentili,ma mi hanno avvisata all' ultimo che il bus da me prenotato non ci sarebbe stato,hanno provato ad aiutarmi e alla fine sono riuscita a prendere quello precedente ma se non ce l' avessi fatta non so come avrei fatto,se la corsa non c'è non dovrebbe essere nelle opzioni. Il customer care però è stato veramente molto gentile e disponibile2024-11-13

  • reviews3★Air conditioning on the bus from Saranda to Tirana was not strong enough.2025-06-27
  • reviews3★We had problems to get the second bus before the first bus had been late. But even if we would have arrived in time it seems impossible to reach a bus in Tirana central station when you only have 40 minutes to get there from Tirana north south station, so I really don't know why you are offering such tickets2025-07-17
  • reviews3★The bus left on time which was very good. Also the bus company let to change the time of the tickets. The bus was a bit worn out, it smelled a bit of mould. Also it was weird that the bus took the gasoline when the passengers were on board not before and it stopped in random places to take more passengers on although there was no place. Therefor the journey was longer as well.2025-08-02
  • reviews3★The ride took 6 hours instead of 4 so we almost missed our flight, the seats were extremely uncomfortable and the air condition was not working well.2025-08-11
  • reviews3★Guaranteed seat is completely misleading. The bus company couldn’t care less. They told me that there is only 2 seats left, and I had to wait 1,5h for the next bus. Digitalization is an alien term for the Albanian transportation.2025-08-18

  • reviews3★Hi. We were not explained on where the bus will drop us and that we still need to travel to the airport. The driver just stopped and told us that is the depot.2025-08-27
  • reviews3★The journey went well but the organization for boarding the bus was not good. We purchased our ticket online. Arriving at the bus stop I show my ticket online, a person lets me board the bus. 10 minutes later she asks to check then makes us get off the bus. He was wrong about the destination. There we want to take another bus and we are told to go to a counter to exchange our online ticket for a paper ticket. 15 min wait. I thought the bus was going to wait for me and so I put my luggage in this other bus which went well to Tirana. Anyway, the bus left with our suitcases! A gentleman immediately called the driver and we finally collected our luggage. Departure was announced at 10:45 a.m. arrival at 3 p.m. in Tirana. We left at 11:15 a.m. and arrived at 4 p.m.2025-09-01
  • reviews3★1) It was necessary to arrive 30 minutes early but the driver only opened the door at the picket time, even dit was raining. The bus departed some minutes late. 2) there is no wifi or energy inside the bus 3) the stop time in the middle of the journey was not correct. The departure was late again 4) the arrival time was late2025-10-17
  • reviews3★very old bus. uncomfortable ride.2026-06-13
  • reviews3★It is disappointing to see they STILL fill the buses over the capacity and that the safety still isn’t good enough. I was moved from my seat to the seat next to the driver, which is ok, but the seatbelt didn’t work, and it would have felt a bit safer sitting upfront with a belt on, as the traffic-culture is rather ‘heated’ 😬😂 Aircontitioning could definetly be better, but hey- at least this this there was one ;)2026-07-07
  • reviews3★The journey was correct, but the ticket and website didn't warn that the office and pick up point has changed, I had to take a taxi to arrive at time.2026-07-09

  • reviews4★The booking process and the payment have become much quicker, that is great. It would be great if the online ticket would work at the bus right away instead of going to the ticket office still to get a manually issued paper ticket, especially when there are many tourists and long lines. Overall though every driver and every ticket office clerk has been very friendly and helpful, thank you for that! I will always prefer the bus for my many travels in Albania!!2024-11-13

  • reviews4★The travel information was complicated to understand. I was going from sadande to tirana airport, while booking it said there was a change or transfer but for the transfer I would have to change from tirana north and south to tirana central station which was 7km away. This was very confusing because actually it was very easy, the bus from the same travel provider was directly from the north and south bus stop itself and there was no change of station. It was change of bus at the same station.2025-09-14
  • reviews4★The driver did a great job but the bus was a bit dirty and the curtains needed washed quite badly.2025-11-22
  • reviews4★late departure but the driver was fast so we arrive still close to the arrival time. i just dont get it, why i still need to go to the ticket office after buying to secure my seat if it is already a guaranteed seat. if it just the same way i could just buy direct to the ticketing office and save for the online booking fee.2025-11-27

  • reviews4★It might be good to receive number of place at once in electronic ticket and have opportunity to choose the place. Not understandable while I having an electronic ticket should have a check in and to receive a paper with number if my place. Several times during the trip the bus stopped due to the technical reason. It might be good to fix all technical issues before the trip.2026-06-03
  • reviews4★Nice experience, good driver .2026-06-21
  • reviews4★Lots of confusion, there were three different busses going from Sarande to Tirane and the drivers had no clue what bus we were supposed to be on. They sent us to the correct one 5 minutes before departure and thankfully we got two seats together but some people were separated from their group.2026-06-23
  • reviews4★The positive thing is that we had a garanteed seat, which is why we choose to travel with you, since we didn’t had that on the other bus on the outward journey. And we had a pause in the half of the journey, what was good too. But what I didn’t like was that the bus was very old and not so clean. And the air conditioner was not working so well.2026-06-23
  • reviews4★Buena atención! El personal me resolvió un problema con mi Ticket que perdí. Sin embargo, pienso que no deberían trabajar con compañías poco formales como el bus de Saranda a Tirana . Posterior a ello me cambiaron la categoría del bus que había comprado inicialmente (qué era más barato) .2026-06-23

  • reviews5★My opinion is that Gjirafa Travel itself, as the website where the tickets are purchased, works very well. My problem was with Trans Butrinti, since they assigned me the back seat even though I purchased my tickets 3 months in advance - bear in mind the back seats are 5 in total and very close to each other. Also, these seats can't be reclined given it is the last row. 2 ladies bought their tickets right after me, since they did not have an existing reservation like I did, and they were still given front reclinable seats. They should prioritize passengers with existing reservations or let passengers choose their seat while the are buying the tickets online. Lastly, they allow for a couple passengers to travel standing, which is very dangerous.2025-07-16

  • reviews1★reported thisThe bus didn’t have seats for everyone even for people with tickets that was ordered many months in advance. Prepare to stand up for up to 5 hours. The information on the ticket is incorrect. The trip from Tirana to Dhermi and return took 5 hours instead of 2.5 hours as stated in the ticket. If you have another transfer option I would highly recommend to avoid using this bus service.2025-06-12

  • reviews4★reported thisPickup location could have been indicated more clearly - a taxi-location was indicated in the PDF ticket, but the bus came to the (unmarked) Dhermi bus station. Bus was overbooked - plenty of people had to stand in the isle as there was not sufficient seats.2025-09-02

  • reviews1★We decided not to take the bus we had booked in Albania after our hotel manager kindly called the bus company to confirm whether it would arrive at the destination on time. We were told it would not - apparently, buses in Albania often stop for extended coffee breaks, leading to delays of over an hour in reaching the final destination. It’s unclear how bus companies are allowed to operate like this without accountability. We had to take an expensive taxi instead.2025-06-11
  • reviews1★Not happy with Girafa Travel Service at all. The reason being that it says the journey takes three hours, when in fact even the bus driver said it takes about 4 and it actually took us 5. As a result, we missed our plane! Not a happy bunny.2025-08-09

  • reviews2★The booking was great, but the experience wasnt. We had to arrive early to reserve seats. We saw some people standing because they came late. Air conditioning is so weak, we were boiling the whole trip. For EUR15 each, we expected more.2026-06-18

Staff treat customers rudely — refusing simple requests, yelling, dismissing concerns, and in 1 case hitting a passenger's hand — while overbooking buses and selling seats already reserved, forcing some to sit on the floor for 4-hour trips. This costs us trust on a 359-review line of satisfied travelers, and exposes Tisa Travel to complaints that will spread across review sites and consumer authorities if the behavior continues.

  • reviews1★reported thisUnfortunately there’s no 0 to select as it’s my score for this company. Staff 0 behaviour to treat customers, very rude and think we’re animals, no English at all. I got my tickets 3 weeks before my trip, due a problem with the taxi I arrived at bus station 10 min before to departure and the guy very rude simply told me there was only one seat left but I’ve bought 2. As I didn’t show up 30 min before they were sold all the tickets at moment in the bus station (???) and the only way to heading to Sardana is one of us seat on the floor during the trip of almost 4 hours!!!! It’s completely unacceptable, there’s no control about tickets, no security, no air conditioning, bus was messed of organisation, passagens discussing about seats as the info in the ticket was trrrible to understand as they mark with the pan (?), my seat in the ticket was 51 and the bus had only 49! The funny is that people who just bought tickets at bus station were seating and us who bought earlier to avoid problems seated on the floor, that’s disgusting! I will never recommend this company, better pay a little extra a rent a car or got a private van for groups. Avoid this company to preserve your mental health!2024-09-11
  • reviews1★reported thisCogí el autobús de Sarande dirección a Tirana, ya tenía el ticket que lo compré a ustedes por internet, la salida del autobús de Sarande hacia TIRANA era a las 2 de la tarde del día 20 de Mayo. Pregunte al chico que estaba controlando los tickets de los viajeros que si podía darme un asiento un poco más adelante, ya que mi asiento era atrás del todo y yo me mareo y lo paso mal, la respuesta de este chico, con muy mala educación y muy alterado me contestó que cogiera un Taxi si me marehaba, me cuesta entender que personas como este chico puedan trabajar de esa forma nada de respeto hacia el viajero, cuando tiene que dar ejemplo de educación y saber estar, porque estás personas no hacen bien su trabajo y dan muy mala imagen al turismo con sus comportamientos, sinceramente llevó muy mala imagen del trato que se medio en esta Compañía por parte de esta persona que trabaja con ustedes, no llevo un buen recuerdo2025-05-22

  • reviews1★reported thisYesterday at 4:30 pm, we took the AB979TK bus. The driver and his assistant played loud music from the moment we got off. 5 or 6 people repeatedly asked him to turn it down. When he didn't, I politely asked him to turn it down because it was becoming unbearable. He said no and laughed with his colleague. I decided to take a picture of both of us to post on social media because we couldn't believe the lack of respect. When I took the picture, he hit my hand and knocked my phone to the floor. It's worth remembering that he was the one driving in charge of more than 40 people. He still didn't turn the volume down. I don't understand how a company would hire such a disrespectful and violent person. I have a photo of both of us, from the bus with the license plate, and I will also post my feedback on Google and social media. I'm sorry for hiring people with such rudeness!2025-06-03
  • reviews1★reported thisWe got two tickets for our round-trip bus journey from Tirana to Saranda (4 hrs bus ride each way) and it was awful. The bus was dirty, the air conditioning wasn’t working despite the high temperatures (making the ride very uncomfortable) and the bathroom was out of service. On both the outbound and return trips, the bus was delayed by over an hour. When we politely asked the staff if there was a problem, we were treated rudely and our concerns were dismissed. NOT RECOMMENDED.2025-06-28
  • reviews1★reported thisFrom sarande to tirana ,the bus driver was very rude ,he asked several times to show the ticket .I took three ticket including for my kid to Tirana and he is arguying and trying to put another person on our seat very bad experience. The driver spoiled our holiday mood 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻2025-07-13
  • reviews1★reported thisThe air con was so bad it hardly worked and the driver played music loudly the whole time when people were trying to sleep. The bus was also delayed because some girls were annoyed they couldn’t sit together so the driver tried to ask people to move and rearrange seats when people had gotten there early to get seats. Not a great experience2025-08-01
  • reviews1★reported thisYou guys kidding ?! Is that bus !!! lol … No more comments , can’t adjust the seat …. Drivers not even polite2025-08-16
  • reviews1★reported thisI had a terrible experience with this agency. I booked a ticket from Bunece to Tirane, but the bus was delayed by more than 30 minutes. When I tried to contact the agency for information, the person I spoke with was extremely rude and offensive just because I asked for details about the arrival time. Completely unacceptable behavior. I will never use this agency again.2025-08-25
  • reviews1★reported thisTo Whom It May Concern, I am writing to formally raise a complaint about the deeply unacceptable experience I had on 26/04/2026 with Gjirafa Travel, and I want to be very clear: I am not satisfied with a 1-star rating alone — I want a full refund, and I want this matter taken seriously. I booked my seat well in advance. This was not a last-minute reservation — I planned ahead, paid the full fare, and had every reasonable expectation that my seat would be held for me. On the day of travel, I encountered a delay and, knowing I would arrive approximately 10 minutes late, I attempted to call ahead and inform your team. Nobody answered. Not once. I arrived at 3:50 PM. My seat had been given away to another passenger. Let me be direct about what happened next: I was forced to sit on the floor of the bus. On the floor. After paying full price for a reserved seat. This is not a minor inconvenience — it is a complete failure of your basic obligation as a transport provider. A booked seat is a contract. You gave it away while I was actively trying to reach you. To make matters significantly worse, your staff’s behaviour toward me was rude and dismissive. Not apologetic. Not solution-oriented. Rude. When a paying customer is already in a difficult situation, that is the moment your staff should step up — and they did the opposite. I want to be very clear about what I am asking for: 1. A full refund for this journey, given that the service I paid for was not provided. 2. A written explanation of how my pre-booked seat was given to another passenger despite my prior contact attempt. 3. A formal response to the conduct of the staff member(s) involved. I gave this experience 1 star on your feedback platform, and I will not be stopping there. If this is not resolved promptly and to a satisfactory standard, I will be escalating this complaint to the relevant consumer protection authority and leaving detailed public reviews across every platform available to me. I have screenshots, records of my attempted call, and the timestamp of my arrival. I expect a response within 5 working days.2026-04-26
  • reviews1★reported thisArrived and they had already sold our seat to another customer so we have to spend €70 for another bus ticket on another private provider. Rude customer service and would not recommend purchasing a ticket ahead of time as it means nothing to them. They will sell the seats either way. Purc2026-08-06
  • reviews1★reported thisThe bus had about one hour delay so we couldn‘t catch out transfer so we had to pay twice for another bus nobody could help us there and the second bus had a delay of about three hours due technical issues and we had no air conditioning like promised the driver was extremly unprofessional and was on his phone the whole ride. The bus was really old and had outdated interior2026-08-30
  • reviews2★reported thisCramped coach with no toilet, left us in the coach for an hour without AC running. The coach was an hour late into Saranda. The driver was angry and seemed to be annoyed at two separate people who needed to stop for the bathroom, yet had no problem stopping to pick up and drop friends on the way who were not paying. We stopped once in 2 hours which was reasonable for us. But people have different needs. The website wasn’t really clear about where to find Tisa Travel. Cost of travel is good, but comfort and experience not so good.2025-06-02
  • reviews2★reported thisThe booking process was totally fine and efficient thru the website. The actual journey was dreadful. Billed as 4 hours with 15 minute stop it was almost 6. Several extra stops where we sat in the bus waiting for not sure what, and the aircon was not very effective especially on the random 30 min stop. Seriously sweaty. Then an issue with an extremely drunk and stoned Frenchman, a fight nearly broke out on several occasions. He was unsafe to remain on the bus but they just shouted and swore at him, should have thrown him off at the pit stop. Not a good experience at all.2025-06-14
  • reviews2★reported thisThere is still a lot to do, starting from building a proper bus terminal, setting up a proper ticket office in Tirana at the station, having better quality buses and drivers that are maybe not smoking during the journey and yelling & swearing all the time. There were also some dangerous traffic situations which really scared me. The overall experience was unfortunately quite negative.2025-08-04
  • reviews2★reported thisalways being not nice and really bad driver. The bus crashed and we had to get off before the destination2025-08-31
  • reviews2★reported thisThe bus ride down to Sarande was great, good information from the bus driver, safe driving and comfortable air conditioning vehicle. The drive back to Tirana was the worst thing Ive experienced, 5.5 hour drive instead of 4, no air conditioning, cramped in a mini van with a driver who was rude and did not speak English. He would pull over the side of road and smoke and then not answer any questions we had, the van was like a sauna and we nearly missed our flight.2026-05-26
  • reviews2★reported thisWe booked online but we had no seats booked and we have to reach early to get a seat on bus which is not really helpful. Saw some of the passengers struggling also as they booked seats but were being almost harassed for not having a seat in person but they actually booked online and the bus personnel have no idea nor did they speak english. A total mess2026-06-04
  • reviews3★reported thisThe bus company were very rude. Our taxi was late so we did not get there until 5 minutes prior to departure. The man in the ticket office said “it is not his f***ing problem” once on the bus 20 minutes into the journey they checked our tickets and my bag had ripped mine in half. He spoke very rude about us in Albanian and told me to get of the bus and I was not welcome. Bus was pulled over by the police and staff did not make anyone aware what was going on and why we stopped unexpectedly for half an hour on a full and hot bus for 5 hour journey2025-06-01
  • reviews3★reported thisI rode a bus from Tirana to Sarande. The staff was rude, the bus was late leaving and 2 hours late arriving, it was hot, cramped, and they didn't stop for FOUR hours to let us use a bathroom. So not the best experience but it got us to where we needed to go so that's a plus.2025-07-29
  • reviews3★reported thisShouting between staff and staff and customer2025-08-19
  • reviews3★reported thisEl bus era muy incómodo, mal mantenido, la suspensión inexistente. Cada bache que tomaba se sentía en los riñones. El aire acondicionado deficiente, la limpieza nula. El trato de los conductores, de lo más prepotentes. La verdad que no elegiría Tisa nunca más. Nos dejaron el Sarande en una calle en el centro sin siquiera darnos alguna explicación. Tuvimos que sacar las valijas nosotros de adentro del bus. Una experiencia desastrosa.2025-09-08
  • reviews3★reported thisVan was comfortable and we arrived close to our on time but the break was longer than driver said, he smoked while he drive and he yelled at us to get out of the bus and had no idea the bus was at the end. Also check in I had QR code and was told I needed my online receipt. Luckily I had it. Not very nice. A lot of frustrated yelling.2026-02-24
  • reviews4★reported thisThe driver was really rude, not friendly at all! Wanted to ask him to change the AC tempreture a bit higher, he pretended he can not READ and he sent me away. So the staff is definitely NOT a pleasent experience. He also didn’t mention where and WHEN will we stop, everyone were just waiting the bus to stop for a break (go to toilet, eat etc..) it would have been nice if the driver at the start of the journey could inform us about this.2025-05-21
  • reviews4★reported thisOnduidelijkheid bij vertrekpunt in Saranda. Geen communicatie. Medewerkers maken zich niet bekend. De organisatie is onherkenbaar, dragen geen dienstkleding. Spijkerbroek en T-shirt. Wie is wie/wat? Chauffeur rookt achter het stuur tijdens de rit, diverse keren. Geen communicatie tijdens een stop. Hoe lang blijven we bij het restaurant?2025-06-22
  • reviews5★reported thisYour booking system is excellent. The bus company was not. The driver Smoking while driving Constantly using his phone, at times with both hands off the steering wheel and he exceeded the speed limit countless times. It was only because of warnings from the flashing lights of approaching vehicles he slowed down. The air conditioning on the bus was inadequate.2025-06-29
  • reviews5★reported thisAbrupt staff2025-10-12
  • reviews1★I booked a bus through Gjirafa Travel, but the bus simply did not exist. I arrived at the station on time, but there was no bus, no driver, and no staff to assist me. I had to book another ticket last minute, which was frustrating and an unnecessary extra expense. I contacted customer service and requested a refund, but they never responded. Instead, they sent me a message asking me to rate my experience—so here it is: terrible service, zero reliability, and no customer support. I strongly advise against using this service unless you want to risk being stranded. I expect a proper response and a refund for the ticket I paid for.2025-03-11
  • reviews1★i wanted to change destination location, but i could not. I was only given the option to change time/date.. even though I purchased premium flex.2025-05-06
  • reviews1★Absolutely unreliable service and the worst travel experience. On our onward journey from Tirana to Sarande we were boarded on a old small coach that was not good for travel longer than 1-2 hours - it also broke on the way and we were delayed by over 1 hours to reach Sarande. I had booked return tickets and to my surprise I was told the bus is cancelled. I didn't get any notice, email or call from the agency or travel operator and was left without information in the bus station in Sarande. I have to book a private taxi at EUR 150 to travel to Tirana as I had my flight. The cancellation without even informing the client is against the rule and laws and I have raised this with their customer service without any resolution yet. Absolutely poor service and not something you can rely on2025-05-07
  • reviews1★Unorganised2025-05-19
  • reviews1★The men running the North-South terminal were awful and lazy, except the younger one. The one sitting in the booth selling tickets was the worst. Busy talking to each other, fighting, and arguing instead of keeping the area clean and running on time. Not even a trash can for customers. Bus left an hour late. Aircon never got cold. Stopped halfway for a break. Stopped again to get a new tire, but did not tell customers why they stopped.2025-05-26
  • reviews1★The car was bad condition we could not use the belt. It was not safe.2025-06-01
  • reviews1★It is stated on the website that non-flexible booking can be cancelled within one hour of booking but this feature is not working. I made an error with the time and could not cancel a booking immediately after. My money gone and no means of calling this company.2025-06-05
  • reviews1★The trip both ways was terrible. The drivers sell extra tickets and we were sitting on stairs. Ensure electronic check in, that people after having bought the tickets shouldn’t stand in the queue to make a check in the office 30 minutes befire - it’s old school in 21 century! You have foreigners coming from around the globe, please adapt the technologies to attract good tourists, that are ready to travel and pay in your country. Shame!2025-06-09

  • reviews1★Will be one of the 5 worst bus journeys I've experienced. I had purchased an online ticket and was seated in the middle back row. Online usually get priority seating. The journey took 5 hours instead of 4. We had an unofficial stop and not kept informed by the driver as to the reason. The air con was non existent, with no toilet on board I refrained from drinking but as a result experienced heat stroke from the lack of air. If buses do not come equipped with fully functioning air con then the buses should be fitted with windows that can be opened and closed2025-09-03

There were no customer service on Sunday to help, I did send a WhatsApp message to the customer service number but didn't get a reply until 2 days later, and the agents' responses were completely useless, they just wanted to close the case and were not even keen to look into the core of the problem to help. I didn't get to activate the esim in the entire trip, it was a total waste of money, and at the end of trip I got no refund or proper help or whatsoever. I would ask everyone to avoid gjirafa!2026-05-29

  • reviews1★Weather was really hot and the bus air conditioner was not working. So it made the whole trip really exhausting and we were wondering at some point if we are going to make it all the way to Sarande or not.2026-08-01
  • reviews1★Je veux être rembourser trajet horrible même pas à la bonne destination2026-08-05
  • reviews1★No AC ans seat not comfortable2026-08-17
  • reviews1★I tried to talk to the agency about my delays that made me miss one of my bus connections but instead of looking for a solution I was told multiples time that I can neither get a partial refund nor reuse my ticket. I don’t think that’s particularly fair when the missed connection was out of my control!2026-08-17
  • reviews1★We arrived more than two hours late and we lost our ferry conexión2026-08-19
  • reviews1★The staff was very friendly, BUT the bus was so old, 5 hours of this travelling we thought we are going to die inside. It was EXTREMELY HOT. I don’t recommend to nobody.2026-08-23
  • reviews1★Buses are old, a/c is not sufficient2026-08-27
  • reviews1★A very bad experience. The old bus, without seatbelts in all the seats, the chairs didn't recline because they were broken. They take people sitting in the aisle, there's no automatic ticket control with the QR code issued. They put us in separate seats even though we asked to go together. I do not recommend this company.2026-08-31
  • reviews1★I wouldn't recommend Albania to anyone, most of the people are unfriendly, trying to scam and just not worth your money. Go to Corfu and just go visit Sarande or any other place from there for 1 or 2 days max. Better to avoid Albania.2026-08-31
  • reviews2★Air conditioning often too low or turned off...too hot inside the bus,expecially at the last seats.2024-09-15
  • reviews2★Driver smoked on the bus.2025-05-23
  • reviews2★It is really annoying that you don't answer to messages to the WhatsApp you we're giving on your website. And on the Website, the schedule is not right.2025-07-06
  • reviews2★The landscape was great, but not the ride. We arrived 1h late, and no one explained us why (it took 5h to go from Tirana to Sarandë). Luckily they had AC tho it didn't work a lot.2025-07-06
  • reviews2★The travel was not pleasent at all. We arrived 1h after the arrival time, there was no ac inside the bus (at least not enought for the 40 degrees we experienced) and in a total of more then 5h we stoped just once to use the bathroom.2025-07-22
  • reviews2★Very disorganized staff, for something so simple to get people on the bus it turned into chaos.It reallt only takes 1 switched-on person to explain to all the tourists who do not speak the language that their seat number is on the ticket.It took ages for people to understand what was happening onboard.Something that could have been done in 2 minutes with anyone from Girafa Travels making a little effort and in the end it is in the benefit of the bus driver to leave on time.Thank you2025-08-01
  • reviews2★Réservation des billets très intuitive très rapide. Aucun soucis. Cependant le transporteur est parti en retard et s’est arrêté toutes les heures ce qui fait que le voyage annoncé à 4h de durée en a en fait durer plus de 6h30 avec une climatisation ne fonctionnant pas correctement. Bref déçu du transporteur2025-08-11
  • reviews2★The A/C was not good, it was very very hot2025-08-11
  • reviews2★The tisa travel tirana to sarande bus service was appalling. The service was supposed to take 4 hours 15 minutes. It actually took over 5 hours 30 mins, with the driver making numerous unscheduled stops to collect/drop-off items. He also used his mobile phone regularly while driving, including whole going through mountain passes with sheer drops.2025-08-21
  • reviews2★Many stops that appeared to be for private business. Poor communication. Arrived 90 minutes later than expected. Good driving2025-08-27
  • reviews2★Our bus broke down half way from Tirana to Saranda. We were waiting 2.5h and no information about what was the problem or how long we would need to wait. Its annoying arrive that late to the destination but a bit information could have lighten up a bit2025-09-17
  • reviews2★Yesterday took the bus from Tirana to Saranda. We arrived approx 16:15 compare to the schedule which was 14:00 arrival... no information was about it, nor about the stops along the road... There was no toilet on the bus which is ok, but there was an infornation on this page that it would be.2025-10-14
  • reviews2★The driver was nice and did safe drive, however the arrival time was late 45mins.2026-03-23
  • reviews2★Horrible bus experience2026-04-01
  • reviews2★It was 31 degrees on the bus and there was no air conditioning- it either didn’t work or they chose not to turn it on2026-04-21
  • reviews2★Got us from A to B pretty much on time. Staff were helpful enough and not rude. The bus was a bit run down with broken seats etc. The main problem was the AC was very poor which made the journey a little unpleasant.2026-06-15
  • reviews2★It was very hot on the bus and the driver smoke a LOT of times2026-06-27
  • reviews2★Too hot!!!2026-06-28
  • reviews2★The website itself is great. But 3 of us bought a ticket and the bus station refused to use our tickets and stated we need a physical copy in hand from the bus station, so we had to buy a second ticket2026-07-19
  • reviews2★The first bus was late so we missed the next one… NOT COOL. We got home 5 hours later then we should have!!2026-07-30
  • reviews2★Overpriced for an old bus and hectic organisation. Not to be repeated.2026-08-14
  • reviews2★Poco aire acondicionado. Paradas no previstas. Y demorado, perdimos excursión2026-08-26
  • reviews3★Goof2024-09-02
  • reviews3★The bus was very old, filthy and generally very uncomfortable - I have bruises on my legs from the seat pressing into them, plus if anyone reclines at all then there is no space at all. Also, the bus stopped far too many times, which was annoying. Multiple times they picked up people, even though there were no seats available, so those people ended up standing in the aisles imposing on the original passenger's space. The multiple stops seemed totally unnecessary too, turning a 4 hour trip (which could probably be 3) into a 5.5 hour trip. It was also almost thirty mins late departing from the original station in Tirana.2024-09-04
  • reviews3★The driver made multiple unscheduled stops. I arrived at my location and hour later than the time that was recorded. There was no communication from the driver about the stops and everyone started to get off the bus before the final stop without warning2024-09-05
  • reviews3★El chófer manejaba mut rápido2024-09-05
  • reviews3★Buona organizzazione2024-09-13
  • reviews3★The driver stopped the van for a long break. He also picked up parts and delivered them to businesses on his route. The caused us to be late to our destination.2025-01-15
  • reviews3★The buses are quite outdated, but more importantly they are often not clean. Especially the windows where people rest their heads, filthy!2025-04-15
  • reviews3★Ok ,should be better aircondition2025-06-05
  • reviews3★Although the bus left on time it was delayed on both trips. I wish it would have been cleaner. Also, would have appreciated if the driver would inform the passengers if an unexpected stop had to be made or the break duration half way through the trip.2025-06-15
  • reviews3★Bus was old and smelly and the air con didn’t really work.2025-07-04
  • reviews3★The journey was longer than expected, both ways so it should be calculate that way. (5 hours instead if 4) but overall it was Okay2025-07-14
  • reviews3★First the 4 euros extra for booking are not so ideal. The bus station is not a bus station but a parking lot and it is not obvious where to go. It should be more explained if someone book online.not toilets on the bus for a 5 hours ride is also wild.2025-07-30
  • reviews3★Bus clean and confortable but tirana to saranda took over 5:30 hours instead of 4, and no charging station for phones. the delay made the journey really hard to bear.2025-08-06
  • reviews3★Generally positive, but the bus arrived to Saranda an hour later than promised.2025-08-06
  • reviews3★Too noisy, air conditioning does not work well, the trip is too long. No toilets in the bus is really hard and no information about the stop.2025-08-08
  • reviews3★The bus started off warm and progressively got way too warm throughout the journey. The toilet on board also didn’t work but it was efficient with getting us there and was very cheap2025-09-11
  • reviews3★The bus was scheduled to depart at 16:00 and the driver advised us to go there at 15:30. We did as we suggested but the bus eventually departed at 16:20.2025-09-21
  • reviews3★Too much stops in the middle2025-10-12
  • reviews3★The return bus was terrible. It was a small van. It was completely full and I was squeezed into the back row. I felt very cramped between two big men. One man had a strong body odor. This lasted for five hours. It was torture. You need a bigger buses. Don't pack a lot of people into a van. I really wish Flix buses in Albania.2025-11-04
  • reviews3★The estimated travel time was not accurate, so for my trip to Tirana from Saranda I was late to my bus and missed my ticket slot. On the way to Saranda from Tirana it also took about two hours longer than expected. Driver from Saranda was smoking in the van the whole time.2026-03-22
  • reviews3★Buying tickets was the best part of the journey. The whole experience was less enjoyable. Printed Gjirafa tickets I should have exchanged to the local ticket in a small cabin at the station (which is an extra step in a process). The tickets told us to come 30 minutes before departure time, so we spent it in the heat, hiding in a shadow of the bus (there is no roof whatsoever). The vehicle floor was sticky, air conditioners almost didn’t work, so 4 hours of medium range suffering and we were at Saranda. Safely though, thanks to the driver. There was a sanitary stop in the middle of the journey which was nice, opportunity to buy water and clean toilets.2026-08-10
  • reviews3★The quality of the buses could be improved. We were unable to adjust our seats and the air conditioning was not appropriate. I was also concerned to see the driver smoking while driving, as this raised safety concerns.2026-08-11
  • reviews3★This is our first time with this company… C’était notre première fois. Nous devions arriver à 12:45… et sommes arrivés à 2:23….2026-08-12
  • reviews3★So it a bus I know but the orginizer gave the same buss seat to three people including me then he put me in a very bad seat, the air conditioner was extremely bad it was a nightmare for the journey between Durres and salande2026-08-24
  • reviews4★Departure was on time! The break was a little bit too long in our opinion. So at the end we weren't on time in Saranda. The driver was good and we had a ventilated vehicle.2024-08-25
  • reviews4★Decent enough booking process. Departure and arrival times ought to be more accurate.2024-09-12
  • reviews4★Had to change bus right before start after sitting in another one for about one hour, staff could be more polite2024-09-14
  • reviews4★The staff were helpful however we had to change to a smaller bus which was quite old and not very nice but then we had to change back to the bigger bus which was somewhat newer which I was happy about. Overall it was pretty good.2024-09-21
  • reviews4★It was great to have the opportunity to pay for the ticket online. More details about the procedure to verify the online ticket at the bus station would be very helpful2024-09-24
  • reviews4★Good experience even if the travel was a bit longer than what was written2024-09-24
  • reviews4★Maybe saying where the stop is, so ppl know.2024-10-22
  • reviews4★Was easy to navigate Albania, easy to book.2024-10-31
  • reviews4★Good2024-11-05
  • reviews4★The process went fairly smooth. There was a lot we didn’t know and we expected are large bus but the sprinter van was fine.2024-11-09
  • reviews4★the experience was good on the bus. I would recommend having signage at South and North terminal station. The only reason I found where to check in was because a staff member was standing there and asked me. Then he told me which direction to find the bus but it is so hectic at that station I think the buses also need better signage.2024-12-02
  • reviews4★Only positive impressions! I really liked everything! A couple of recommendations, though: • Don’t drive too fast, as it’s important to be as cautious as possible in the mountains; • Basic knowledge of English would be helpful for the drivers.2025-01-13
  • reviews4★All was very good!2025-01-18
  • reviews4★Autobusi ne te vertete mberriti 30 minuta me vonese2025-01-30

  • reviews4★Good. But staff is not very friendly2025-04-30
  • reviews4★Booking was fine. When arriving, company told me that lucky seats were available, I don't think they take the booking system too seriously in terms of reservations.2025-06-02
  • reviews4★quiet good but Website needs some improvement2025-06-06
  • reviews4★A good experience2025-06-08
  • reviews4★It was good, but not really clear where to transfer to south and north terminal tirana2025-06-13
  • reviews4★When we had a break, there was no information on how long. The journey was much longer than indicated.2025-06-20
  • reviews4★Bus was quite warm, aircon didn‘t work too well. And if you‘re over 190cm - you simply dont fit in the seats. Luckily there were empty seats, so i could solve that Problem. But staff was nice, booking was easy, so all in all a good experience.2025-06-26
  • reviews4★Booking process was easy with detailed info provided.2025-06-27
  • reviews4★Bus was way too hot, need better AC2025-07-01

  • reviews4★Great experience!2025-08-09
  • reviews4★Everything was fine, the bus was old.2025-08-09
  • reviews4★Tooked way longer than described because of the traffic2025-08-18
  • reviews4★The journey went well. Only the bus was a little bit old, but thank god there was airco in it. The chauffeur drove also really good, so it was a nice experience.2025-08-22
  • reviews4★Bus came on time. Air conditioning was working just fine. One bus stop in 5 hours is good.2025-08-25
  • reviews4★Seats too Small2025-08-25
  • reviews4★There were a few people who bought tickets and weren't able to get on the bus or were offered to sit on the floor (some did!) Is this double-selling or a faulty reservation system? Regardless this HAS to be fixed- btw these weren't $1-2 cheap tix but almost $20 (which can get me from DC to NYC). Once we got on the bus the ride was alright, AC was working and all was good...until the bus side panel holding all the suitcases flew open and a bunch of luggage (including mine) went flying down the road. This caused an almost 2 hour delay though thankfully there were no injuries or accidents beyond 1 destroyed and 1 lost suitcase. Girafa: make sure the buses have enough seats for all of us and are operationally sound...2025-08-25
  • reviews4★All good👍🏻2025-08-26
  • reviews4★Bus was comfortable, check in ok, but we haven’t received info about the stops. Also, the bus arrived at destination almost an hour later…2025-08-27
  • reviews4★Everything worked very well, but we had a delay of over an hour.2025-08-31
  • reviews4★Départure ok. Driver ok. We arrived one hour after the indicated time.2025-09-02

  • reviews4★Bussin löymisessä hankaluutta ja ohjattiin nopeampaan yhteyteen joka toi ongelmia. Pääsin kuitenkin perille 😊2025-10-13
  • reviews4★Journey was OK and without problem. The only one problem was at the beginning when I wasn't sure for what bus should I go (it was bus to Tirane).2025-10-15
  • reviews4★It was fine, even if we arrived a little behind the schedule.2025-10-16
  • reviews4★Small bus with no leg room. People jammed in with luggage in the aisles as not enough room in the back. Driver was good but arrived late. Not sure if this was related to the extra stops that were made. Made it safe and sound.2025-10-24
  • reviews4★Print the addresses of the offices/kiosks where you have to go to collect tickets on the electronic ticket confirmation (especially for Tirana North/South terminal as it is a very large area and very chaotic for people who are not used to it).2025-11-27
  • reviews4★The journey wasn’t bad but it would have been nice to have been informed that we were running late and expected time of arrival at Saranda2026-04-19
  • reviews4★The fee that Gjirafa takes is a bit high2026-04-26
  • reviews4★Ride was fine. Bus that I bought ticket for not showing up at all and having to stand and wait for the next one two hours later wasn't so cool.2026-05-04
  • reviews4★I booked my ride from tirana to Saranda and back, and overall it was a good experience. Though a little bit here and there, like the bus didn’t had proper working AC for the ride back, so was a bit hot. Good thing the weather was nice. The ride from tirana to Saranda was but the mini van was a bit dirty. But overall a good experience.2026-05-06
  • reviews4★Good experience overall2026-06-19
  • reviews4★Overall good experience, i think the prblem is the drivers never scan the wallet qr code but they want the email.2026-06-19
  • reviews4★The bus was very old, without toilet in a large journey and the aconditioned air insuficiente. It is not aprópiate to get tickets Edith the number of seats just in the ticket office ( we had just a qr )2026-06-21
  • reviews4★Globalement tout s'est très bien passé ! Le document fourni avec les informations de voyage que j'avais imprimé ne semblait pas toujours très clair pour les chauffeurs de navettes pour ou vers l'aéroport...2026-06-27
  • reviews4★Overall fine for the price. The aircon was not very efficient and although ok when cooler nearer the coast, leaving Tirana in 34/35 degrees was uncomfortable. This must be awful in August. The driver needs to be more assertive about explaining the length of break ( he was clearly very annoyed with the individuals who held up departure for the 2nd leg by 15+ minutes. Good for him, I would have gone without them!)2026-06-30
  • reviews4★We left Tirana with 15 minutes delay, we do not know why. It might help if the colleagues could speak English. The overall experience is OK.2026-07-07
  • reviews4★You could improve the buses, more technology like chargers!2026-07-15
  • reviews4★All good, in the beginning it was hot, but after the airco went on, it was alright2026-07-18

  • reviews4★Bus ride was excellent, checking in process could be improved. Seating information was not clear.2026-07-31
  • reviews4★It was a good ride and the driver tried to stop as I had to urgently pee, but I had to hold it for reallllyyy long!2026-08-01
  • reviews4★1) staff could be more polite and informative not in fighting mode. 2) travel destination could be more informative including breaking location. 3) Early seat selection could be initiated during the ticket booking in internet. 4) I would like to thank the bus driver. He was very kind and informative.2026-08-07
  • reviews4★It’s ok2026-08-12
  • reviews4★Everything went well. The travel was Way more longer because the traffic, you have to keep that ín mind.2026-08-13
  • reviews4★Quite good. Bus not really modern, no toilet and only one rest stop. But overall totally fine for the price.2026-08-14
  • reviews4★It should be possible to change the number of people, not just edit the names.2026-08-20
  • reviews4★The bus was extremely hot the first hour. It is not explained when purchased ticket that it is your seat number2026-08-21
  • reviews4★The booking process with Girafa was smooth and uncomplicated, but the actual bus operator wasn’t quite as good. Broken seats and chaos with seat alllocation. Still departed and arrived on-time though (within reasonable tolerance)2026-08-24
  • reviews4★Unfortunately, in retrospect, I don’t recommend the bus system in Albania. Private transfer is much better. But thank you Gjirafa for making it easy to at least get tickets.2026-08-25
  • reviews4★It was good2026-08-26

  • reviews5★Exceptional service and professionalism We traveled with Classic Company from Kopyevo to Ohrid, and everything was smooth, fast, and very comfortable. The night ride was handled by a highly professional driver who made the trip feel safe and easy. Our next trip was from Ohrid to Tirana, scheduled for 6 AM. Due to a language barrier with some of the staff, we accidentally boarded the wrong bus — we were told it was going to Tirana, but it turned out our actual bus was a different one. What happened next truly surprised us: the company arranged a private transfer just for the two of us. The car came all the way from their office (about 30 minutes from the border), picked us up, and drove us across the border into Albania and all the way to Tirana — a 3-hour trip! Possibly, no one else had booked that bus, but still — they didn’t cancel it. They honored our tickets and provided a magical level of service that we had never seen before. We are extremely grateful and impressed. Highly recommended!2025-06-30

During the comeback people had to return standing, and driver had driving license expired so police almost sent us back to Pristina2025-08-11
  • reviews1★Our bus on the way from Skopje to Kosovo was totally overcrowded with people standing and then on return my seat had to be tied to the one next to me otherwise I would have tipped over - the mini van was I think burning oil the inside was full of Akrid smoke so they drove with the door open - I am quite chilled out but this company are downright dangerous2025-08-19

  • reviews1★No point in booking online if you have to queue at the station to pay an additional booking fee. The suggested bus from Skopje to Pristina was an uncomfortable minivan with an unprofessional driver.2026-07-07
  • reviews2★The driver was smoking in the bus. He was chatting with someone behind him so he didn’t look on the street and was driving bad. It was very hot in the bus.2025-08-04
  • reviews2★The online booking with Gjiraga was very easy. The bus journeys would have been better if the drivers had not used their mobile phones when driving. The ticketing checks were different for every journey, which was confusing. And at Skopje there was an extra ticket required for the ‘bus station services’ which was not described at the time of booking.2025-09-10

  • reviews2★The bus we travelled on should not be on the road. Aside from the mechanical issues, there were broken chairs and the air conditioning was barely working. Half of the curtains on the windows weren't there, so some were sitting with the support hot sun blasting them. Would not recommend Amalfi Tours at all2026-07-31

  • reviews4★Everything in general was fine. The bus driver from Skopje to Pristina was playing music so loudly that passengers couldn't listen to their own music. One of the other passengers asked him to turn it down, but he turned it back up again. They played the same CD four times on repeat.

  • reviews5★The process to buy a ticket was easy and saved me the headache of trying to get a ticket day-of from operators who might not have a physical presence at the station. Having a consolidated schedule across the various bus operators is also very useful. More details about the bus stations themselves beyond a map pin would be a nice-to-have feature (description/picture of staging area, note on how the bus boarding bay is picked or that you need to find it yourself if it's random, whether or not the operator has an office at the station, etc.) but this isn't critical. Ultimately, my journey was much less stressful because I bought my tickets ahead of time on Gjirafa.2025-11-28

5 riders paid online but drivers rejected their tickets at boarding and made them pay cash again. This shows a breakdown between our payment system and the operators' acceptance of it — each rejected ticket costs us a customer and damages trust in our service.

  • reviews1★Udhëtimi me autobus për në kthim ishte më i keqi. Burri që u ul pranë meje nuk reshtte së ankuari pse e kisha vendosur çantën mbi sedilje, ndoshta sepse nuk i pëlqejnë të huajt—edhe pse më u desh ta merrja çantën e madhe brenda sepse bagazhi prapa ishte plotësisht i mbushur. Shoferi nuk bëri asgjë për të më ndihmuar. Ishte një përvojë e tmerrshme dhe nuk dua të hip kurrë më aty. Për më tepër, si në vajtje ashtu edhe në kthim, kondicioneri nuk funksiononte fare dhe bënte shumë nxehtë. Ishte një mundim i vërtetë.2026-08-12

  • reviews1★reported thisI arrived and the bus driver said my ticket was not valid because "El Travel" the carrier Qjirafa sold me a ticket for has closed down. They asked I pay cash and the minibus almost broke down twice on the was to Tirana. A refund would be interesting...2025-12-11
  • reviews1★reported thisDriver told me it was overbooked ä. That gjirafa didn't put a stop sale. And I had to buy a new ticket!2026-08-11
  • reviews3★reported thisPurchasing with girafa itself was good. But the bus driver of the bus time I booked the ticket for wouldn’t take online tickets because there wasn’t enough space for everyone who bought tickets so my friend and I had to wait for the next bus. If I had known that they turn people away with online tickets in those situations I would have just bought at the station. It also would have been helpful to know the bus of that specific line uses a smaller bus so there isn’t a lot of space and plan accordingly.2026-05-30
  • reviews5★reported thisThe site for buy ticket is perfect. We receive all information. But when we arrive at the bus station Skopje we need to pay for having the paper ticket.... It's not written than we need to pay more at this station !!2025-11-06
  • reviews5★reported thisAll the process went smoothly. However, it's worth mentioning that for example the bus station in Skopje charges extra fee for tickets issued online. In practice, it means I was turned away from boarding the bus, had to get back to a ticketing office, pay a fee, and return with the receipt. Just a small detail.2026-06-25
  • reviews1★very bad2025-12-30
  • reviews1★I took this “bus” from Skopje to Pristina and it was honestly a very disappointing experience. Instead of a proper bus, it was a small, old van, completely overcrowded. There were more passengers than seats, and at some point along the route, additional people got on and had to stand for the rest of the journey. There was essentially no proper luggage space. The van’s trunk was far too small for standard suitcases, so passengers were forced to keep their bags inside with them to make room for larger luggage at the back. This made an already cramped space even worse — there was barely any legroom, and having bags at our feet made the journey extremely uncomfortable. Seats were worn out, the conditions were poor, and the overall experience was far from what you would expect for this type of trip. On top of that, the driver was quite rude and dismissive. Honestly, the only positive was that the journey was just two hours. Overall, this is not a service I would recommend. If you're expecting a comfortable and smooth journey, this is definitely not it.2026-05-05

  • reviews3★I bought two tickets in a single booking with a self-transfer, but the transfer time was far too short. We couldn’t make the connection, so we had to pay for another bus ourselves. I also don’t understand why tickets are sold from Tirana Airport to Tirana Center when the next departure is from a different station, which requires traveling almost back toward the airport. This makes the connection very confusing and unrealistic. On the positive side, the eSIM worked perfectly without any issues. The support team also responded quickly and helped me change my email address. Thanks to them for the fast and friendly assistance!2026-07-18

  • reviews1★reported thisIt was a scam. Terrible experience. I was traveling on August 3, 2025 from Pristina to Thessaloniki with the company Gmica Travel. I booked the tickets from your site. The bus did not show up and so I was stranded in Pristina. I demand that you refund the fair of the tickets I paid! You are unacceptable!2025-08-04

  • reviews1★Është hera e fundit që kam promovu me ju. Asgja nuk funksionon.Askush nuk përgjigjet, nuk kontakton, vetëm të marr pare po. Dy herë kam anulu udhëtimin përgjigje nuk kam marr, as paret. Kurr nuk keni me u përmisu me metodat që përdorni. Unë kam 5 dekada që jetoj në perendim, atje kurr nuk ndodhin gjërat që ndodhin te ju.Kurr ma nuk du me pasë punë me ju. Mirëmbetshi2025-06-05

  • reviews1★We were unable to make our journey from Skopje to Prishtina. The van driver refused to accept our tickets purchased online (despite having checked in at the ticket office). We had to wait for the next bus and buy new tickets. A disappointing experience!2025-08-22
  • reviews1★It was a disaster, the bus was old with many defect recliners, overcrowded so people had to stand, no airco, to toilet. The driver picked up local people on the way and dropped them off at a different location while this was supposed to be a nonstop journey of two hours. We arrived after 2:45 hours. I cancelled the return ticket and took a taxi back. Never again.2025-09-08
  • reviews1★It’s definitely the worst experience I had in Europe in a bus. Similar to a bad one I had in Uganda, but in Uganda it left on time. Please, re-think about what you’re doing. I’m taking the chance to honestly tell you, you’re such a horrible company. So much to improve. There was the assistant of the driver smoking while the bus was on the road. I have asthma and was getting all that smoke and had to cover myself not to smell it. But of course this wasn’t the only bad thing that happened, just put yourself together.2025-09-13
  • reviews1★The bus was very bad. Seats was broken. Door was opened while all path. In the station they charged a fee for bus. My girlfrien still sick because the bus was verry cold. E-sim is good working.2025-10-27

  • reviews1★I was not allowed to travel from Pristina to Skopje as I had ticket booked via online. People who bought from station was allowed to travel.My money also lost. I requested the refund, no update yet Booking number : N38FGgjP2026-05-03
  • reviews1★Terrible travel experience.I don’t recommend anyone.2026-08-07
  • reviews2★Bus was full of smoke not in the best technical condition2024-09-14
  • reviews2★I prebooked my ticket well in advance (Amalfi Tour from Skopje to Pristina). Upon arrival at the bus there were no seats left so I had to sit the entire journey on a small blue plastic emergency chair. Four other people arrived later than me and had to stand in the middle of the bus. No seats nor seat belts for them. I would like to have a full refund of 8.50€ plus booking fee. Kind regards, Johannes Weiss2024-11-04
  • reviews2★Very frustrating. Mini bus was already having technical issues before journey started and 25 minutes later it broke down and we had to wait 30minutes for replacement. No one told us what was happening.2025-08-07
  • reviews2★Për të filluar, furgoni nuk kishte ajër të kondicionuar ose dritare dhe në gusht... brenda kishte një sauna, kështu që shoferi vendosi të hapte derën e furgonit dhe të ngiste ashtu... Gjithashtu, dukej sikur furgoni do të hiqte dorë nga udhëtimi në mes të autostradës, e di që është një udhëtim i shpejtë dhe i lirë, por ne jemi prapë njerëz dhe presim të paktën pak siguri, unë jam nga Amerika Latine dhe as atje nuk kemi këtë lloj udhëtimi... përvojë e tmerrshme.2025-08-12
  • reviews3★The ride was recent. It was a little tight on the bus, as it was a mini bus. It was good that with it made a lot of stops that made us able to buy things along the way and take some bathrooms breaks. But the online scheadule for the time the ride would arrive in Pristina were off by 1 hour and 15 min, you really shoud updatr this as sometimes people are depending on the real arriving time.2024-10-22

  • reviews3★Majority had booked on our transfer online but only a minibus so quite a few couldn't get on and were told to wait for next bus. They ended up having to get taxis. Surely with online advance booking you know how many are booked. Otherwise ok experience. Staff ok.2025-03-27

  • reviews3★The bus was overbooked and priority was given to locals. At least 5 passengers were left behind and 3 passengers had to sit on the floor of the bus for 2 hours! Including through an international border. The van was very old and didn’t have AC, the driver then drove with the door open. We were grateful for the fresh air but very dangerous. We got to our destination so 2 star but would never book with this company again!2025-07-07

  • reviews4★Ne pergjithesi, sherbimet kane qene te mira. Sidoqofte, ka hapesira per permiresim. Duhen te perditesohen te dhenat rreth linjave te ndryshme pasi qe disa mungojne e disa te tjera jane te pasakta. Une pata planifikuar te marr autobusin per ne Shkoder nga Prishtina. Website thoshte qe per te kapur autobusin e fundit per Shkoder, duhet ta merrja autobusin ne ora 16:40 per te arriitur ne Prizren ne 18:15, dhe pastaj ne 18:30 nga Prizreni per Shkoder. Kur arrita ne stacion te autobuseve ne Prishtine, shoferi i autobusit per Prizren me tha qe nuk arrijne asnjehere ne Prizren para ores 18:35. Domethene do ta kisha humbur komplet mundesine per te mberritur ne Shkoder ate nate po te isha bazuar vetem ne informatat ne Gjirafa. Gjate asaj kohe morra vesh qe kishte autobus qe shkonte ne Ulqin, me ndalese ne Shkoder dhe perfundova duke e marre ate opsion.2025-07-04

  • reviews5★The bus was over booked - people had to stand in the aisle and get out before the border (6), walk through and get back on. The bus was old, hot and stuffy - the driver was very good considering his load. In hindsight, we would have excepted the taxi drivers offer of driving 2 of us at €70! Im glad it was not a long journey!2026-05-05

  • reviews1★reported thisThe worst service of my life! No air conditioning, I had to share the seat with another person for 5 hours2025-07-24
  • reviews1★reported thisBy far the worst bus travel experience of my life. Uncomfortable, cramped seats, no air conditioning. These aren't buses for sightseeing or long trips! Horrible, not recommended at all!2025-10-01
  • reviews1★reported thisNo aircondition on the bus and the driver was smoking while he was driving. NOT a good experience.2026-05-04
  • reviews1★reported thisTransport in Albania is run by greedy people who avoid tolls and go on busy roads to save money, tell you it is a direct service when they pick up and drop off people along the way, do parcel deliveries along the way, take twice as long to finish a journey than it would take to go there directly AND if that wasn't bad enough, they do it all without air conditioning. You are expected to waste your time on a bus and drip in sweat with your legs up high in the air because of their greed, instead of being out there enjoying your life or working etc. Their greed and inability to take someone from A to B in a quick and efficient manner, stops everyone else from prospering. Further they stop fir a break for 20 minutes because they are taking so long to complete the journey. When the last bus leaves at 4pm, you don't have time to do all the things you wanted to do at your destination. You don't spend money at the restaurants there or visit all the tourist attractions because you don't have time. You can't use the bus yo go to work or do business because by the time you arrive at your destination half your day is gone and you are dripping in sweat. These greedy people make everyone poor. Even when there are later buses, there is only one at 10pm, so you are stuck travelling at night and then there is no transport for you to go home from tye bus station and you are forced to get ripped off by taxi drivers that charge you three times as much. The sad thing is that the transport is not even cheap. You are just paying a lot to waste your time and be uncomfortable.2026-07-03
  • reviews1★reported thisWe had the worst experience ever. Instead of driving 2 1/2 hours from Tirana to Budva, it took us 7 hours. The bus hat no AC (it was extremely hot) and then the bus broke down. We were in contact with someone from the office and she was talking very rude an unprofessionell to us!2026-08-09

  • reviews1★Terrible terrible experience. They filled all the seats in the bus so got us a mini bus with terrible conditions. It was tiny and there was not enough space for everyone! There was a lady seated on the floor!! On a 4h trip! That is not normal.2024-09-12

  • reviews1★The bus was late no communication everyone was pissed off when we asked questions no clear view of what was our bus. After a few moments we had to walk 4 min with our luggage to go to another bus it’s not normal !2024-09-18
  • reviews1★One huge disaster and total chaos. It's the 21st century and the offices in Sarandë don't have computers and smooth passenger check-in. Instead, they write out tickets by hand. As in ancient times.2024-09-28

  • reviews1★Very small bus, it was too tight, we took the bus from Tirana to Saranda and back, both buses were very slow and sounded like they were faulty.2024-10-06
  • reviews1★We booked a ticket for a train from Sarande to Tirana airport and they offered two buses with a transfer in between (they said the transfer was a 22 minute drive and that’s it, no other information about the transfer from one bus to another). We would have been better off getting the one bus and then a taxi ourselves rather than getting the first bus, taking a taxi going back on ourselves for the second bus (the taxi to the second bus was the same cost as the taxi to the airport!). The taxi to the airport was also about 25 mins whereas the second bus took an hour!!!! Not practical at all and just added stress!2024-10-13

  • reviews1★I had the worst experience with this company. When my friend and I arrived at the bus, the driver took both of our suitcases and loaded them onto the bus – we saw this with our own eyes. The bus itself was in terrible condition – honestly, it was falling apart. During the drive, the driver was texting and talking on the phone, which is completely unacceptable. And without exaggerating, we were driving at 30 km/h for over an hour on the highway. On top of that, the bus randomly stopped twice in the middle of the road for no reason. With about an hour left of the trip, the driver came to the back of the bus and handed me his phone. A man on the line told me in English that they had found my suitcase in the middle of the street in Sarandë. I explained that this was not my responsibility, as I had trusted the driver to load it – which both of us had clearly seen him do. When the driver was informed about the situation, he started yelling at me, saying it was my fault, and completely denied having done anything wrong. He took no responsibility at all and was extremely rude and aggressive in the way he spoke to me. They offered to send the suitcase with the next bus, but I wasn’t going to receive it in time before my flight. It all turned into a huge mess, and I ended up having to book a new flight for the next day – and pay for a hotel – just to get my luggage back. To make things worse, the other bus driver who brought my suitcase demanded €10 for doing so. I will never travel back and will absolutely never use this company again. It was a truly awful experience. This was yesterday at 09:302025-06-07
  • reviews1★I purchased a ticket for a journey from Saranda to Tirana Airport on June 8th. I bought a ticket for a bus departing from Saranda at 17:00. The system automatically created two separate tickets. The first one was for Saranda to Tirana Terminal (departure at 17:00 – arrival at 21:20). The second one was from Tirana Terminal to Tirana Airport (departure at 22:00 – arrival at 22:30). There was only a 40-minute gap between the two trips, and I only found out the details of the second trip after I had already made the purchase. However, the bus from Saranda arrived at the terminal at 23:00. The terminal, I later learned, closes at 22:00. When I arrived, there were no vehicles available. I was left stranded. Moreover, I paid €8 for 2 people for the terminal-to-airport transfer and an additional €4 service fee — a total of €12 wasted.2025-06-09
  • reviews1★I had purchased two bus tickets from sarande to Tirana airport. So there was a transfer. The bus was very late getting to Tirana and so we were stranded at the bus terminal. The driver should have put us in a cab and paid for it.2025-06-09
  • reviews1★Horrible2025-07-12
  • reviews1★Too many people trying to be stuffed onto a bus with already cramped seating. 1 girl had to sit in the aisle bc the ticketing office couldn’t keep the seating straight. Overall, it was a very claustrophobic journey back to Tiranë from Sarandë2025-07-14
  • reviews1★Terrible. You sold the same bus tickets we had bought days before, to other customers in the last half hour before departure . We arrived before few minutes before departure of the bus, but our seats were just re-sold. So we were obliged to travel with the next bus two hours after.. it causing great problems to us.2025-07-14

  • reviews1★El bus se fregó en media carretera y hasta que aparecio un pequeño bus los que teniamos que tomar el avión corrimos nerviosos y nos subimos en este otro pequeño bus muy incomodo al final casi perdimos el vuelo del avión. Tampoco pudimos tomar a tiempo el siguiente bus que ya habiamos comprado nuestros billetes desde Tirana hasta el aeropuerto osea perdimos nuestro dinero y tuvimos que pagar un taxi para alcanzar a tiempo el avión. Fué caótico pir culpa de que los buses de esta compañia son todos rotos y viejos, además no le hacen servicio de mantención. No recomiendo esta compañia.2025-07-21
  • reviews1★The bus was overbooked. So instead of going 10:45, we went 11:45. And we didn’t even get picked up in a bus. It was a mini van. There wasn’t room for all of us again. So some people had to wait even longer for the next bus even though they had a ticket for 10:45. The condition of the minivan was atrocious. Really bad The booking on gjirafa website was nice and easy The rest. Really bad2025-08-04
  • reviews1★They were very polite until you bought the ticket, but I can't begin to describe their rudeness here! A young blonde man with black sunglasses waiting at the Saranda bus stop. A perverted young man who gave priority to beautiful women and yelled and scolded others who asked questions! Due to my bureaucratic duties, I kept quiet that day to avoid getting into trouble! I've never seen someone both rude and perverted in my life, so this was a lesson learned! Saturday, August 2nd, 10:45 AM bus from Saranda to Tirana. I was one of the customers in two groups, A1 and A2. The pervert was organizing the red bus. Don't give these kinds of perverts any business, dear authorities!2025-08-05
  • reviews1★Not very structured system. No information about where the bus was. The bus was an hour late.2025-08-07
  • reviews1★Bad experience. Despite having bought my ticket online and going to the agency to pick up my ticket, the driver asked me to sit on the floor because more tickets had been sold by the time I was leaving. I had to insist to keep a seat.2025-08-09

  • reviews1★terrible, AC wasnt really working, saranda to tirana trip from 10:45 to 17:30 instead of arriving at 152025-08-13
  • reviews1★Booking process was simple enough, although the travel was so bad. Bus was overbooked, so the bus company provided 2 extra buses - great, but because of that we didn’t leave until nearly 1,5hours later that we meant to. Nobody once was apologetic and bothered that we have a flight to catch. We literally just made it to the airport, were late for a transfer bus and ended up paying extra for a new one (even that we had one booked via gijrafa). Buses in both directions were very uncomfortable and no leg space whatsoever. So thinking that if you leave Saranda at 10:45 to catch the flight in Tirana at 8pm, which gives over 9 hours, was completely wrong.2025-08-16

  • reviews1★Awful experience - two buses broke down and the drivers were rude and unfriendly. Tried to separate the group even though there was space and then charge for my ticket twice in order to be kept on the same coach. Pay the extra for a taxi to the airport - promise it isn’t worth the stress!2025-09-16
  • reviews1★I took the bus from Tirana to Saranda in Albania, but it wasn't easy to find the bus stop when leaving the airport. I actually had to take a taxi for 20 minutes once I arrived at the airport to get to the bus stop. Given how complicated the process was, I almost missed my bus, and the same thing happened on the way back. You have to go to a tourist office before boarding the bus. It's not enough to have already bought your bus ticket. The process is complicated for no good reason. My driver was not at all friendly and didn't bother to explain anything to me, even though we didn't speak the same language, and of course I missed the bus. I lost money and had to pay €170 for taxis to get to the airport. It was an obstacle course both ways because of the complicated system for no good reason, the lack of information, the fact that it was poorly signposted, and the lack of professionalism of the drivers. I do not recommend it!2025-09-21
  • reviews1★Bus was overbooked despite us purchasing tickets the day before online and getting the paper tickets 1 hour before the departure time. We were 29-30 seats but some people were already on the bus coming from Ksamil. They had been given the same seats. There was no seat for my companion. The driver aggressively shouted at people, including us. Finally one woman had enough and left which opened up the seat for my companion. This experience tarnished my view of Albania and I decided I will recommend private transfers to everyone. Absolutely astonishing experience.2025-09-21

Normalde bizi altı gibi indirmesi gerekiyordu yedide Üsküp otobüsüne aktarma yapabilmek için ama bizi 7:30’da indirdi o yüzden hem mağdur olduk hem paramız alındı hem farklı ülkede dilini bilmediğimiz ülkede sokakta kaldık tekrar gidip bilet almak zorunda kaldık maddi manevi zarara uğradık2025-10-02

  • reviews1★The buses didn’t have any functional air conditioning. Me and my wife had to struggle a lot. And the bus from Sarande to Tirana was overbooked and people were literally standing all the way. We didn’t even get proper seats. Never ever getting on a bus from Sarande to Tirana. Horrible experience and poor management with below average customer service.2026-05-25

  • reviews1★I am a person who travels a lot. Different cities, different countries, different cultures. But I have never felt as insecure traveling as I did with this company. The driver was speeding for long stretches of the route, exceding the limits (I recorded qith Google Maps to control the speed of it, so it wasn'tjust a felling). On our trip, there was an over-sale of tickets, forcing people to travel standing or sitting on the floor for long hours, on routes full of curves, ups and downs. It seems to me to be the worst service that has ever existed, without naming that the law has been broke in different aspects.2026-06-20

  • reviews1★I booked four bus tickets from Saranda to Tirana online with Gjirafa Travel. On the day we went as advised half an hour early to the Saranda office in ith our luggage. The man inside the Gjirafa office told us we needed to get a taxi or walk to the bus terminus. We asked him if he could take us or else find us a taxi himself as we didn’t know from where to grab a taxi. He told us curtly we would have to find our own taxi so he did not lift a finger to assist us. Finally we managed to Gail a taxi who took us with barely enough time to go to the bus terminus where we showed the office personnel the online order and they gave us the seat allocation. All in all very disgraceful behaviour a. Will never book through Gjirafa travel ever again.2026-07-09
  • reviews1★The staff were extremely rude. We arrived 30 minutes before departure, but they shouted at us, claiming we were late. Despite already having valid online tickets, they insisted that we had to collect paper tickets from another booth. Instead of simply accepting our tickets, they took a photo of them and sent it to someone on WhatsApp. When the bus arrived, there were not enough seats for all passengers. I had to argue with the driver, who did not speak English, just to be allowed onto the bus. Even after boarding, we were forced to stand for almost five hours because there were no available seats. This experience was completely unacceptable. I expect a full refund and that a formal complaint be made to the bus company. I would not recommend this service to anyone.2026-07-13

  • reviews1★The bus just came 2 hours late, and the location indicated on the ticket was not the correct one to take the bus. Only speaking with a local we figured out that the bus is not even allowed to get access to the place indicated, and then we take a ride up to the entrance of the city, in the road, in the middle of nowhere, and the bus was very late. I needed to call 3 times for the company operator to confirm if we really were going to have anything on there. After to be on the bus, we discovered that many other people had booked at 3 pm or 5 pm and wait for all the afternoon, and the bus one came at 9 pm. That's a shame, and you should take it out from your website. That's not a serious company at all.2026-08-10
  • reviews1★Diamant travel agency experience was absolutely diabolical. The staff (not the bus driver he was so sweet) at the station were absolutely nasty. The bus broke down and was stranded on the side of the road for 5 hours without any water or bathrooms for the entirety of the evening into the night, no replacement bus and the company would not respond to our asks for help or the bus drivers. Arrived 6 hours late. Majority of the people on the bus said the woman manning the front desk and responding to WhatsApp messages (once and never again) was incredibly rude. I would not recommend this company to my worst enemy. Will be seeking refund.2026-08-12

  • reviews1★Very stressful and confusing experience overall with the bus we booked go Tirana from Sarande. In the email Girafa confirmed to first go to the agency of the bus company but on Google maps the agency is in a different location than the actual bud terminal where they later sent us to check in. We booked two tickets together but didn't get seats next to each other despite checking in almost one hour early. The staff and driver were rude and aggressive. Will not book this again2026-08-19

  • reviews1★The ticket purchasing system makes no sense; buying a ticket for a specific date and time doesn't even guarantee you'll be able to travel. It’s completely unclear that after buying, you don't actually receive a ticket, but just a piece of paper that means nothing and has to be exchanged for a real ticket. Nowhere is it stated that you need to go to a counter/office to exchange it, there's only information saying you must arrive 30 minutes early, which tells you absolutely nothing. The staff is neither polite nor helpful. On top of that, the air conditioning on the bus barely works. You should improve the system so that people can buy an actual ticket online with a reserved seat, without the requirement to show up early2026-08-22

They gave our places to some local who bought tickets on the station prior departure. This was for the bus Saranda-Tirana. No help from the agency in Saranda. Sent email to gjirafa travel but no responsen.2024-09-09
  • reviews2★You need to update the instructions in your email & webpage regarding how you need to change the e-ticket to actual bus ticket in the station. Write it clearly, in all communication!! Ask the drivers even but a note on the bus store, so people realize they need to go to the office and change the tickets. In our bus, there were total chaos as people did not know this, seat numbers were all over the place and there was also 6 people overbooked to the trip which meant these people sat on the floor for 4,5 hours from Sarande to Tirana. Above this, staff memeber yelling to these poor travellers, even eventually they had done all what was asked but seats were double sold. With very small changes, much can be done!!!2024-09-17
  • reviews2★The ride was direct and smooth and the driver was good at driving; however, there were a number of things that made it an unpleasant experience. 1) The driver smoked frequently throughout the drive. In an enclosed space with no windows, quite bothersome. 2) Assigned seats is fine, but was not clear on website. We -- including my 88 year old mother -- were stuck, crowded 4 across in the back. 3) The bus was overcrowded. People were sitting on crates in the aisle. 4) This left the bus very hot, despite it being comfortable outside. The air vents above we're almost never on and the driver frequently turned on the heat... Leaving the back of the bus painfully warm. We all ended up rather ill by the end of the trip.2025-03-18
  • reviews2★Tirana-Budva bus. It was a bad experience. The bus was scheduled to leave at 5 am, but it departed at about 5:40. At the station, it was revealed that a ticket needed to be printed. This is not stated on the ticket, which caused additional stress. Printing one ticket costs 1 euro. It is expensive and seems like a rip-off, but there is no alternative. I am still not sure that you really need to print the ticket and that this is not a business scheme. I bought a ticket to Petrovac, but the driver said that the bus does not stop there and goes only to Budva and asked: "Will you go?". Of course I will, I am standing at the bus station in Tirana at 5 am! The driver smoked on the bus, but this is a common practice here. The toilets did not work, there was one stop between Tirana and Budva. At 10 am the heat started and it turned out that the air conditioner could not cope with the heat. Two stars just for getting from point A to point B (almost).2025-06-28

  • reviews2★Bus was too hot and air conditioning was not working properly. I booked a ticket from Sarande to Tirana airport. The ticket did not state that you have to go to another area to get to Tirana airport as they do not interchange at the bus station. This is not worth it as you will have to catch another taxi from Tirana bus station to tirana central station to go to Tirana airport. We wasted our money on the second part of this trip as we had not enough time to get to tirana central station so we had to take a taxi from Tirana bus station. Please ensure you communicate this to customers as it is misleading especially when they do not know the country well.2025-09-28
  • reviews2★It was very warm in the bus and the air system didn’t work. The bus was not in a good state. There was a problem with the battery. The driver wasn’t really nice and didn’t speak English. After the break, the bus couldn’t start so guys from the bus had to push the bus whole the driver was starting the bus! And the curtains in the bus smelled really bad!2025-10-28
  • reviews2★My nephew ended up sitting in the ground because the bus 2 was overbooked. The driver didn’t check people’s tickets and there were two people (one being my nephew) sitting on the floor for 5 hours. That’s really not acceptable. We all paid for a ticket. He should’ve checked the tickets and the seat numbers.2026-06-28
  • reviews2★Our family enjoyed visiting Albania, but our experience with this bus service was disappointing. When I booked our trip from Tirana to Sarandë, I accidentally purchased one extra round-trip ticket because my daughter had already purchased her own ticket separately. I realized the mistake immediately and tried several times to contact customer support by message, email, and phone to cancel the extra ticket, but I was never able to reach anyone or receive assistance. The outbound trip went smoothly. We received QR codes, and the boarding process was simple. Unfortunately, the return trip was completely different. We did not receive QR codes for the return, and we were unaware that check-in had to be completed at least 30 minutes before departure. The process was not as clear as it had been for the outbound trip. As a result, my two children and I, including myself as a disabled traveler, were unable to use the seats we had purchased. We spent much of the five-hour journey standing or sitting on the floor, which was very difficult and not what we expected after purchasing our tickets in advance. I hope the company improves its customer support and makes the check-in process more consistent and clearly communicated between outbound and return trips. I also hope they will consider refunding the extra ticket I tried to cancel and providing appropriate compensation for the return trip. Despite this experience, we truly enjoyed our visit to Albania and hope future travelers have a smoother experience.2026-06-30
  • reviews2★The driver on the way from sarande to tirana was very rude, he yelled at us because we had the nerve to get back on the bus after the break😅 He started smashing the seats and cursing at us. Not recommending this experience!2026-07-06
  • reviews2★The ticket said we need to go the butrinti office 30 minutes before the departure. Turns out you dont need anything from there, we went there just to be informed that we have to get somewhere else (where we actually came from). So it was a waste of time and money. They said that we should get a taxi, and becuse there were many people for the same reason we thought we can get a cab together then to save money, but the taxi driver said that he only takes two people at a time (there was enough place for 4 people). The 30 minutes is probably given, so you cant walk to the station. Fortunately, we were early, at the station they said that we only have to be there 10 minutes before. So its a complete scam.2026-07-08
  • reviews2★I don’t understand why I should pre book a ticket with apple wallet function. At the bus, thej wanted to see the mejl (several times) - not the apple wallet tickets. What was the point with the bar code? I had no reserved seat, and had to wait outside the bus for 1/2 an hour, and after persons with reserved sests entered the bus I could choose among the remaining seats. In Sweden, if you pay with an app, you immediately recieve a ticket in your apole wallet with reservated seat number - on the bus they just scan the bar code.2026-07-18

Arriving at the bus stop I show my ticket online, a person lets me board the bus. 10 minutes later she asks to check then makes us get off the bus. He was wrong about the destination. There we want to take another bus and we are told to go to a counter to exchange our online ticket for a paper ticket. 15 min wait. I thought the bus was going to wait for me and so I put my luggage in this other bus which went well to Tirana. Anyway, the bus left with our suitcases! A gentleman immediately called the driver and we finally collected our luggage. Departure was announced at 10:45 a.m. arrival at 3 p.m. in Tirana. We left at 11:15 a.m. and arrived at 4 p.m.2025-09-01

I was moved from my seat to the seat next to the driver, which is ok, but the seatbelt didn’t work, and it would have felt a bit safer sitting upfront with a belt on, as the traffic-culture is rather ‘heated’ 😬😂 Aircontitioning could definetly be better, but hey- at least this this there was one ;)2026-07-07

  • reviews4★The travel information was complicated to understand. I was going from sadande to tirana airport, while booking it said there was a change or transfer but for the transfer I would have to change from tirana north and south to tirana central station which was 7km away.

And we had a pause in the half of the journey, what was good too. But what I didn’t like was that the bus was very old and not so clean. And the air conditioner was not working so well.2026-06-23
  • reviews4★Buena atención! El personal me resolvió un problema con mi Ticket que perdí. Sin embargo, pienso que no deberían trabajar con compañías poco formales como el bus de Saranda a Tirana . Posterior a ello me cambiaron la categoría del bus que había comprado inicialmente (qué era más barato) .2026-06-23

  • reviews5★My opinion is that Gjirafa Travel itself, as the website where the tickets are purchased, works very well. My problem was with Trans Butrinti, since they assigned me the back seat even though I purchased my tickets 3 months in advance - bear in mind the back seats are 5 in total and very close to each other. Also, these seats can't be reclined given it is the last row. 2 ladies bought their tickets right after me, since they did not have an existing reservation like I did, and they were still given front reclinable seats. They should prioritize passengers with existing reservations or let passengers choose their seat while the are buying the tickets online. Lastly, they allow for a couple passengers to travel standing, which is very dangerous.2025-07-16

It might be a good idea to put a note on the booking site to let people know they have to show their online booking at the bus station office so they can get their seat number. Some people didn't realise this and were confused about where to sit.2025-09-29

I’ve also been using their eSIMs while traveling across the Balkans, and they’ve worked really well the entire time. Having reliable internet has made moving between countries so much easier. Overall, they’ve been a dependable company throughout my travels, and I’d definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a hassle-free travel experience.2026-07-15

What we didnt kmow ie the man checking in picks the seats for you fhere and then ! We fot 51, and 53! Not even together ! Right at back squashed in like sardines ! And air con !? Dont memtion that. Woret coach journey ever experienced absolute chaos .2025-09-22
  • reviews1★reported thisThe buses didn’t have any functional air conditioning. Me and my wife had to struggle a lot. And the bus from Sarande to Tirana was overbooked and people were literally standing all the way. We didn’t even get proper seats. Never ever getting on a bus from Sarande to Tirana. Horrible experience and poor management with below average customer service.2026-05-25
  • reviews1★reported thisThe staffs are so unfriendly and rude. One of the guy is actually racist. The bus had an air con’s issue we had to stop at the service station for 1.5 hours. Also I booked my ticket online for few days ago but the people just turned up who had a front seat then my seat was far end. Worst experience.2026-06-04
  • reviews1★reported thisThe air conditioner wasn't work and we all we feeling already sick in the that sauna bathe bus stopped somewhere and the driver organized another bus. You should check the condition of the buses before they start the travel2026-07-18
  • reviews1★reported thisThe bus driver was fighting with a drunk passenger and there was not enough seats for all of us, so 2 girls was sitting on the floor while we where driving. The bus was in a bad condition. It stopped so many times and we booked Direct. The air condition was really bad.2026-08-09
  • reviews1★reported thisThe ticket purchasing system makes no sense; buying a ticket for a specific date and time doesn't even guarantee you'll be able to travel. It’s completely unclear that after buying, you don't actually receive a ticket, but just a piece of paper that means nothing and has to be exchanged for a real ticket. Nowhere is it stated that you need to go to a counter/office to exchange it, there's only information saying you must arrive 30 minutes early, which tells you absolutely nothing. The staff is neither polite nor helpful. On top of that, the air conditioning on the bus barely works. You should improve the system so that people can buy an actual ticket online with a reserved seat, without the requirement to show up early2026-08-22
  • reviews2★reported thisThe ride was direct and smooth and the driver was good at driving; however, there were a number of things that made it an unpleasant experience. 1) The driver smoked frequently throughout the drive. In an enclosed space with no windows, quite bothersome. 2) Assigned seats is fine, but was not clear on website. We -- including my 88 year old mother -- were stuck, crowded 4 across in the back. 3) The bus was overcrowded. People were sitting on crates in the aisle. 4) This left the bus very hot, despite it being comfortable outside. The air vents above we're almost never on and the driver frequently turned on the heat... Leaving the back of the bus painfully warm. We all ended up rather ill by the end of the trip.2025-03-18
  • reviews2★reported thisTirana-Budva bus. It was a bad experience. The bus was scheduled to leave at 5 am, but it departed at about 5:40. At the station, it was revealed that a ticket needed to be printed. This is not stated on the ticket, which caused additional stress. Printing one ticket costs 1 euro. It is expensive and seems like a rip-off, but there is no alternative. I am still not sure that you really need to print the ticket and that this is not a business scheme. I bought a ticket to Petrovac, but the driver said that the bus does not stop there and goes only to Budva and asked: "Will you go?". Of course I will, I am standing at the bus station in Tirana at 5 am! The driver smoked on the bus, but this is a common practice here. The toilets did not work, there was one stop between Tirana and Budva. At 10 am the heat started and it turned out that the air conditioner could not cope with the heat. Two stars just for getting from point A to point B (almost).2025-06-28
  • reviews2★reported thisBus was too hot and air conditioning was not working properly. I booked a ticket from Sarande to Tirana airport. The ticket did not state that you have to go to another area to get to Tirana airport as they do not interchange at the bus station. This is not worth it as you will have to catch another taxi from Tirana bus station to tirana central station to go to Tirana airport. We wasted our money on the second part of this trip as we had not enough time to get to tirana central station so we had to take a taxi from Tirana bus station. Please ensure you communicate this to customers as it is misleading especially when they do not know the country well.2025-09-28
  • reviews2★reported thisIt was very warm in the bus and the air system didn’t work. The bus was not in a good state. There was a problem with the battery. The driver wasn’t really nice and didn’t speak English. After the break, the bus couldn’t start so guys from the bus had to push the bus whole the driver was starting the bus!

  • reviews1★We booked a ticket for a train from Sarande to Tirana airport and they offered two buses with a transfer in between (they said the transfer was a 22 minute drive and that’s it, no other information about the transfer from one bus to another). We would have been better off getting the one bus and then a taxi ourselves rather than getting the first bus, taking a taxi going back on ourselves for the second bus (the taxi to the second bus was the same cost as the taxi to the airport!). The taxi to the airport was also about 25 mins whereas the second bus took an hour!!!! Not practical at all and just added stress!2024-10-13

  • reviews1★I had the worst experience with this company. When my friend and I arrived at the bus, the driver took both of our suitcases and loaded them onto the bus – we saw this with our own eyes. The bus itself was in terrible condition – honestly, it was falling apart. During the drive, the driver was texting and talking on the phone, which is completely unacceptable. And without exaggerating, we were driving at 30 km/h for over an hour on the highway. On top of that, the bus randomly stopped twice in the middle of the road for no reason. With about an hour left of the trip, the driver came to the back of the bus and handed me his phone. A man on the line told me in English that they had found my suitcase in the middle of the street in Sarandë. I explained that this was not my responsibility, as I had trusted the driver to load it – which both of us had clearly seen him do. When the driver was informed about the situation, he started yelling at me, saying it was my fault, and completely denied having done anything wrong. He took no responsibility at all and was extremely rude and aggressive in the way he spoke to me. They offered to send the suitcase with the next bus, but I wasn’t going to receive it in time before my flight. It all turned into a huge mess, and I ended up having to book a new flight for the next day – and pay for a hotel – just to get my luggage back. To make things worse, the other bus driver who brought my suitcase demanded €10 for doing so. I will never travel back and will absolutely never use this company again. It was a truly awful experience. This was yesterday at 09:302025-06-07
  • reviews1★I purchased a ticket for a journey from Saranda to Tirana Airport on June 8th. I bought a ticket for a bus departing from Saranda at 17:00. The system automatically created two separate tickets. The first one was for Saranda to Tirana Terminal (departure at 17:00 – arrival at 21:20). The second one was from Tirana Terminal to Tirana Airport (departure at 22:00 – arrival at 22:30). There was only a 40-minute gap between the two trips, and I only found out the details of the second trip after I had already made the purchase. However, the bus from Saranda arrived at the terminal at 23:00. The terminal, I later learned, closes at 22:00. When I arrived, there were no vehicles available. I was left stranded. Moreover, I paid €8 for 2 people for the terminal-to-airport transfer and an additional €4 service fee — a total of €12 wasted.2025-06-09
  • reviews1★I had purchased two bus tickets from sarande to Tirana airport. So there was a transfer. The bus was very late getting to Tirana and so we were stranded at the bus terminal. The driver should have put us in a cab and paid for it.2025-06-09

  • reviews1★Terrible. You sold the same bus tickets we had bought days before, to other customers in the last half hour before departure . We arrived before few minutes before departure of the bus, but our seats were just re-sold. So we were obliged to travel with the next bus two hours after.. it causing great problems to us.2025-07-14

Tampoco pudimos tomar a tiempo el siguiente bus que ya habiamos comprado nuestros billetes desde Tirana hasta el aeropuerto osea perdimos nuestro dinero y tuvimos que pagar un taxi para alcanzar a tiempo el avión. Fué caótico pir culpa de que los buses de esta compañia son todos rotos y viejos, además no le hacen servicio de mantención. No recomiendo esta compañia.2025-07-21
  • reviews1★The worst service of my life! No air conditioning, I had to share the seat with another person for 5 hours2025-07-24
  • reviews1★The bus was overbooked. So instead of going 10:45, we went 11:45. And we didn’t even get picked up in a bus. It was a mini van. There wasn’t room for all of us again. So some people had to wait even longer for the next bus even though they had a ticket for 10:45. The condition of the minivan was atrocious. Really bad The booking on gjirafa website was nice and easy The rest. Really bad2025-08-04
  • reviews1★They were very polite until you bought the ticket, but I can't begin to describe their rudeness here! A young blonde man with black sunglasses waiting at the Saranda bus stop. A perverted young man who gave priority to beautiful women and yelled and scolded others who asked questions! Due to my bureaucratic duties, I kept quiet that day to avoid getting into trouble! I've never seen someone both rude and perverted in my life, so this was a lesson learned! Saturday, August 2nd, 10:45 AM bus from Saranda to Tirana. I was one of the customers in two groups, A1 and A2. The pervert was organizing the red bus. Don't give these kinds of perverts any business, dear authorities!2025-08-05

  • reviews1★Bad experience. Despite having bought my ticket online and going to the agency to pick up my ticket, the driver asked me to sit on the floor because more tickets had been sold by the time I was leaving. I had to insist to keep a seat.2025-08-09

  • reviews1★Booking process was simple enough, although the travel was so bad. Bus was overbooked, so the bus company provided 2 extra buses - great, but because of that we didn’t leave until nearly 1,5hours later that we meant to. Nobody once was apologetic and bothered that we have a flight to catch. We literally just made it to the airport, were late for a transfer bus and ended up paying extra for a new one (even that we had one booked via gijrafa). Buses in both directions were very uncomfortable and no leg space whatsoever. So thinking that if you leave Saranda at 10:45 to catch the flight in Tirana at 8pm, which gives over 9 hours, was completely wrong.2025-08-16

Tried to separate the group even though there was space and then charge for my ticket twice in order to be kept on the same coach.

  • reviews1★I took the bus from Tirana to Saranda in Albania, but it wasn't easy to find the bus stop when leaving the airport. I actually had to take a taxi for 20 minutes once I arrived at the airport to get to the bus stop. Given how complicated the process was, I almost missed my bus, and the same thing happened on the way back. You have to go to a tourist office before boarding the bus. It's not enough to have already bought your bus ticket. The process is complicated for no good reason. My driver was not at all friendly and didn't bother to explain anything to me, even though we didn't speak the same language, and of course I missed the bus. I lost money and had to pay €170 for taxis to get to the airport. It was an obstacle course both ways because of the complicated system for no good reason, the lack of information, the fact that it was poorly signposted, and the lack of professionalism of the drivers. I do not recommend it!2025-09-21
  • reviews1★Bus was overbooked despite us purchasing tickets the day before online and getting the paper tickets 1 hour before the departure time. We were 29-30 seats but some people were already on the bus coming from Ksamil. They had been given the same seats. There was no seat for my companion. The driver aggressively shouted at people, including us. Finally one woman had enough and left which opened up the seat for my companion. This experience tarnished my view of Albania and I decided I will recommend private transfers to everyone. Absolutely astonishing experience.2025-09-21

  • reviews1★I am a person who travels a lot. Different cities, different countries, different cultures. But I have never felt as insecure traveling as I did with this company. The driver was speeding for long stretches of the route, exceding the limits (I recorded qith Google Maps to control the speed of it, so it wasn'tjust a felling). On our trip, there was an over-sale of tickets, forcing people to travel standing or sitting on the floor for long hours, on routes full of curves, ups and downs. It seems to me to be the worst service that has ever existed, without naming that the law has been broke in different aspects.2026-06-20

  • reviews1★Transport in Albania is run by greedy people who avoid tolls and go on busy roads to save money, tell you it is a direct service when they pick up and drop off people along the way, do parcel deliveries along the way, take twice as long to finish a journey than it would take to go there directly AND if that wasn't bad enough, they do it all without air conditioning. You are expected to waste your time on a bus and drip in sweat with your legs up high in the air because of their greed, instead of being out there enjoying your life or working etc. Their greed and inability to take someone from A to B in a quick and efficient manner, stops everyone else from prospering. Further they stop fir a break for 20 minutes because they are taking so long to complete the journey. When the last bus leaves at 4pm, you don't have time to do all the things you wanted to do at your destination. You don't spend money at the restaurants there or visit all the tourist attractions because you don't have time. You can't use the bus yo go to work or do business because by the time you arrive at your destination half your day is gone and you are dripping in sweat. These greedy people make everyone poor. Even when there are later buses, there is only one at 10pm, so you are stuck travelling at night and then there is no transport for you to go home from tye bus station and you are forced to get ripped off by taxi drivers that charge you three times as much. The sad thing is that the transport is not even cheap. You are just paying a lot to waste your time and be uncomfortable.2026-07-03
  • reviews1★I booked four bus tickets from Saranda to Tirana online with Gjirafa Travel. On the day we went as advised half an hour early to the Saranda office in ith our luggage. The man inside the Gjirafa office told us we needed to get a taxi or walk to the bus terminus. We asked him if he could take us or else find us a taxi himself as we didn’t know from where to grab a taxi. He told us curtly we would have to find our own taxi so he did not lift a finger to assist us. Finally we managed to Gail a taxi who took us with barely enough time to go to the bus terminus where we showed the office personnel the online order and they gave us the seat allocation. All in all very disgraceful behaviour a. Will never book through Gjirafa travel ever again.2026-07-09
  • reviews1★The staff were extremely rude. We arrived 30 minutes before departure, but they shouted at us, claiming we were late. Despite already having valid online tickets, they insisted that we had to collect paper tickets from another booth. Instead of simply accepting our tickets, they took a photo of them and sent it to someone on WhatsApp. When the bus arrived, there were not enough seats for all passengers. I had to argue with the driver, who did not speak English, just to be allowed onto the bus. Even after boarding, we were forced to stand for almost five hours because there were no available seats. This experience was completely unacceptable. I expect a full refund and that a formal complaint be made to the bus company. I would not recommend this service to anyone.2026-07-13

  • reviews1★The bus just came 2 hours late, and the location indicated on the ticket was not the correct one to take the bus. Only speaking with a local we figured out that the bus is not even allowed to get access to the place indicated, and then we take a ride up to the entrance of the city, in the road, in the middle of nowhere, and the bus was very late. I needed to call 3 times for the company operator to confirm if we really were going to have anything on there. After to be on the bus, we discovered that many other people had booked at 3 pm or 5 pm and wait for all the afternoon, and the bus one came at 9 pm. That's a shame, and you should take it out from your website. That's not a serious company at all.2026-08-10

The bus broke down and was stranded on the side of the road for 5 hours without any water or bathrooms for the entirety of the evening into the night, no replacement bus and the company would not respond to our asks for help or the bus drivers. Arrived 6 hours late. Majority of the people on the bus said the woman manning the front desk and responding to WhatsApp messages (once and never again) was incredibly rude. I would not recommend this company to my worst enemy. Will be seeking refund.2026-08-12

In the email Girafa confirmed to first go to the agency of the bus company but on Google maps the agency is in a different location than the actual bud terminal where they later sent us to check in. We booked two tickets together but didn't get seats next to each other despite checking in almost one hour early. The staff and driver were rude and aggressive. Will not book this again2026-08-19

  • reviews2★You need to update the instructions in your email & webpage regarding how you need to change the e-ticket to actual bus ticket in the station. Write it clearly, in all communication!! Ask the drivers even but a note on the bus store, so people realize they need to go to the office and change the tickets. In our bus, there were total chaos as people did not know this, seat numbers were all over the place and there was also 6 people overbooked to the trip which meant these people sat on the floor for 4,5 hours from Sarande to Tirana. Above this, staff memeber yelling to these poor travellers, even eventually they had done all what was asked but seats were double sold. With very small changes, much can be done!!!2024-09-17

He should’ve checked the tickets and the seat numbers.2026-06-28
  • reviews2★Our family enjoyed visiting Albania, but our experience with this bus service was disappointing. When I booked our trip from Tirana to Sarandë, I accidentally purchased one extra round-trip ticket because my daughter had already purchased her own ticket separately. I realized the mistake immediately and tried several times to contact customer support by message, email, and phone to cancel the extra ticket, but I was never able to reach anyone or receive assistance. The outbound trip went smoothly. We received QR codes, and the boarding process was simple. Unfortunately, the return trip was completely different. We did not receive QR codes for the return, and we were unaware that check-in had to be completed at least 30 minutes before departure. The process was not as clear as it had been for the outbound trip. As a result, my two children and I, including myself as a disabled traveler, were unable to use the seats we had purchased. We spent much of the five-hour journey standing or sitting on the floor, which was very difficult and not what we expected after purchasing our tickets in advance. I hope the company improves its customer support and makes the check-in process more consistent and clearly communicated between outbound and return trips. I also hope they will consider refunding the extra ticket I tried to cancel and providing appropriate compensation for the return trip. Despite this experience, we truly enjoyed our visit to Albania and hope future travelers have a smoother experience.2026-06-30
  • reviews2★The driver on the way from sarande to tirana was very rude, he yelled at us because we had the nerve to get back on the bus after the break😅 He started smashing the seats and cursing at us. Not recommending this experience!2026-07-06
  • reviews2★The ticket said we need to go the butrinti office 30 minutes before the departure. Turns out you dont need anything from there, we went there just to be informed that we have to get somewhere else (where we actually came from). So it was a waste of time and money. They said that we should get a taxi, and becuse there were many people for the same reason we thought we can get a cab together then to save money, but the taxi driver said that he only takes two people at a time (there was enough place for 4 people). The 30 minutes is probably given, so you cant walk to the station. Fortunately, we were early, at the station they said that we only have to be there 10 minutes before. So its a complete scam.2026-07-08
  • reviews2★I don’t understand why I should pre book a ticket with apple wallet function. At the bus, thej wanted to see the mejl (several times) - not the apple wallet tickets. What was the point with the bar code? I had no reserved seat, and had to wait outside the bus for 1/2 an hour, and after persons with reserved sests entered the bus I could choose among the remaining seats. In Sweden, if you pay with an app, you immediately recieve a ticket in your apole wallet with reservated seat number - on the bus they just scan the bar code.2026-07-18

Arriving at the bus stop I show my ticket online, a person lets me board the bus. 10 minutes later she asks to check then makes us get off the bus. He was wrong about the destination. There we want to take another bus and we are told to go to a counter to exchange our online ticket for a paper ticket. 15 min wait. I thought the bus was going to wait for me and so I put my luggage in this other bus which went well to Tirana. Anyway, the bus left with our suitcases! A gentleman immediately called the driver and we finally collected our luggage. Departure was announced at 10:45 a.m. arrival at 3 p.m. in Tirana.

  • reviews4★It might be good to receive number of place at once in electronic ticket and have opportunity to choose the place. Not understandable while I having an electronic ticket should have a check in and to receive a paper with number if my place. Several times during the trip the bus stopped due to the technical reason. It might be good to fix all technical issues before the trip.2026-06-03

  • reviews4★Lots of confusion, there were three different busses going from Sarande to Tirane and the drivers had no clue what bus we were supposed to be on. They sent us to the correct one 5 minutes before departure and thankfully we got two seats together but some people were separated from their group.2026-06-23
  • reviews4★Buena atención! El personal me resolvió un problema con mi Ticket que perdí. Sin embargo, pienso que no deberían trabajar con compañías poco formales como el bus de Saranda a Tirana . Posterior a ello me cambiaron la categoría del bus que había comprado inicialmente (qué era más barato) .2026-06-23

  • reviews5★My opinion is that Gjirafa Travel itself, as the website where the tickets are purchased, works very well. My problem was with Trans Butrinti, since they assigned me the back seat even though I purchased my tickets 3 months in advance - bear in mind the back seats are 5 in total and very close to each other. Also, these seats can't be reclined given it is the last row. 2 ladies bought their tickets right after me, since they did not have an existing reservation like I did, and they were still given front reclinable seats. They should prioritize passengers with existing reservations or let passengers choose their seat while the are buying the tickets online. Lastly, they allow for a couple passengers to travel standing, which is very dangerous.2025-07-16

It might be a good idea to put a note on the booking site to let people know they have to show their online booking at the bus station office so they can get their seat number. Some people didn't realise this and were confused about where to sit.2025-09-29

I’ve also been using their eSIMs while traveling across the Balkans, and they’ve worked really well the entire time. Having reliable internet has made moving between countries so much easier. Overall, they’ve been a dependable company throughout my travels, and I’d definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a hassle-free travel experience.2026-07-15

  • reviews1★reported thisDear Gijrafa Travel, You sold me tickets for a trip that didn't happen. I bought a ticket from you for 7:00 PM, while the last bus from Tirana to Durres departed at 6:00 PM. As a result, I had no way to get back to Durres and was forced to take a taxi, which caused me a lot of stress and expense. I hope you will check and correct this error in your offer and, at the same time, refund me the money (€8.25) for the unrealized trip.

  • reviews1★Good morning, On Friday my friends and I (attempted to) travel via your company and would like to bring to your attention several expensive errors on your website. The e-ticket you sent me (attached) contained this link to the coach departure location. This contradicts a different departure location given on the confirmation email, Garibaldi Square. We went to the former location, when in reality the coach left from Garibaldi Square. The return journey was no better. You sold me tickets for a 20:00 coach from Durres Plepat Station to Tirana that did not exist. I know this because my friends found the RikiTrans offices who apparently manage your coaches, and they told us the 20:00 coach runs only in the summer. Moreover, this seemed to be a frequent occurrence, because taxi drivers circled around Plepat Station knowing you frequently leave tourists stranded like this. We had to pay €35 for a taxi back to Tirana (plus the €6 for an alternative coach to Durres earlier that day). This is not just zero-star service, but non-existent service. I would like our €16.50 returned, for the coach there and back, for me and my two friends, plus your booking fee. Additionally, I would strongly, strongly advise you to correct the link on your e-tickets, and remove the non-existent 20:00 service from your website. It is highly unethical to claim there exists a 20:00 coach from Durres to Tirana, receive payment for it, then leave tourists stranded. Josh.2025-04-20

  • reviews1★What a bad experience I had when I needed urgent help. None of the buses going to Durrës accepted tickets bought through Gjirafa. I had to pay again to go there and back. When I called and messaged Gjirafa to complain on WhatsApp, not only did they not respond till a day later, but they DID NOT help or offer a solution. What a disappointment my experience has been! And now I’m afraid of what’s going to happen because I had already purchased a ticket an online ticket with Gjirafa to go to Kosovo and I don’t want to have to pay for my ticket again.2025-06-30
  • reviews1★No indication once or ever at the leaving point. No sign or bus stop indicated!! We had to pay for another ride since we couldn't find the transportation we booked online thru Gjirafa travel. So it was useless to use your platform. Also we order an eSIMcsrd by mistake which we couldn't use since our phones are not compatible and we couldn't get our money back! Where's the customer service here? I will definitely not recommend your platforme or services to anyone!2025-08-26

  • reviews2★The Durrës Plepat bus station is not near the city center, so we had to take a taxi to our hotel, which significantly increased our transportation costs (15 euros each way), even though there is a bus station in the city center. For the return trip, we departed from the city center station, but my online reservation wasn't accepted. Instead of paying 800 LEKE (8 euros) for a round trip for two using local transportation, with the online reservation (12 euros), the taxi fare (15 euros), and the return ticket price (4 euros), we spent 31 euros, almost four times as much. I am therefore very dissatisfied with my online reservation.2026-06-17

5 riders report the bus took more passengers than it had seats, forcing people to sit on the floor or stand for hours. This breach of safety and contract terms on an otherwise mixed-reviewed line risks refunds, liability, and customer loss if the operator does not enforce seat limits.

  • reviews1★reported thisNever take this bus!! The bus took on 4 passenger above capcity, had no aicon, our luggage had to stand on the floor between the seats, with people sitting on it, and the driver stoped multiple times to talk to people along the road. Amongst those stops where stops to possible take upon more passengers, although we were already far above the buses seat capacity. The driver was on his phone the whole time, drove too far and had to turn around, and gave no information in enligsh. In all the drive took 4 hours, instead of 3 hours, and the bus even started drive before the scheduled departure. In all the dribe was horrible and unsafe. If possible, our group would have given it zero stars, and recommend choosing a taxi. The only positive part of this drive was sick and horrific story we now have to tell our friends and future kids.2025-07-02

  • reviews3★Bus was extremely hot for the first hour of our journey - there wasnt any a/c. I was soaked through my t shirt was wet for the entire journey - extremely uncomfortable. The driver took us to the petrol station and our journey was delayed by over half an hour, purely because the bus wasnt fuelled before we had boarded - this could and should have been done beforehand, when the bus was at the bus station for the hour before we departed. Staff were discourteous and rude to us regarding stop offs. They nearly drove off without passengers on a couple of occaisions2024-09-07

6 riders reported no air conditioning on this route, with buses overheated, journeys taking 2–4 hours longer than promised, and overcrowding forcing some passengers to sit on floors or stools. We need to fix the cooling system and enforce capacity limits, or lose customers to taxis and damage our reputation on a line that also has 14 strong reviews.

  • reviews1★reported thisterrible conditions, a bus without air conditioning at +30. and also instead of the stated 2.5 the journey took 5 hours2025-06-15
  • reviews1★reported thisNever take this bus!! The bus took on 4 passenger above capcity, had no aicon, our luggage had to stand on the floor between the seats, with people sitting on it, and the driver stoped multiple times to talk to people along the road. Amongst those stops where stops to possible take upon more passengers, although we were already far above the buses seat capacity. The driver was on his phone the whole time, drove too far and had to turn around, and gave no information in enligsh. In all the drive took 4 hours, instead of 3 hours, and the bus even started drive before the scheduled departure. In all the dribe was horrible and unsafe. If possible, our group would have given it zero stars, and recommend choosing a taxi. The only positive part of this drive was sick and horrific story we now have to tell our friends and future kids.2025-07-02
  • reviews1★reported thisWorst bus experience in my life. No air conditioner, people seated on the floor, rude driver, 2h more than expected time. I definetly won't recommend to my friends visiting Albania next month.2025-07-07
  • reviews1★reported thisLate departure Rude staff Over crowded bus Bus stopped for petrol after 30 minutes No A/C We decided to get a taxi instead2026-06-15
  • reviews2★reported thisIl n'y avait pas de climatisation et le bus est vieux.2026-08-31
  • reviews3★reported thisBus was extremely hot for the first hour of our journey - there wasnt any a/c. I was soaked through my t shirt was wet for the entire journey - extremely uncomfortable. The driver took us to the petrol station and our journey was delayed by over half an hour, purely because the bus wasnt fuelled before we had boarded - this could and should have been done beforehand, when the bus was at the bus station for the hour before we departed. Staff were discourteous and rude to us regarding stop offs. They nearly drove off without passengers on a couple of occaisions2024-09-07

  • reviews3★Le trajet était censé durer 3h il en a duré 4h15 alors qu’il n’y avait pas de bouchons. Vous payez votre ticket 14€ mais en fonction de votre arrêt vous n’avez pas forcément de place dans le bus. De plus, ils vous disent de venir 30 minutes avant le départ, ce qui est inutile, surtout quand le bus part avec un retard de 15 minutes2024-09-05
  • reviews3★Booking and payment via the website was very easy. We went from Tirana to Dhërmi. I don’t know if Gjirafa always uses the Olgeno bus company but we started almost an hour later than indicated and the journey also took an hour longer. Set aside some time to get to your destination.2024-09-14
  • reviews3★Journey said from 10:30 to 1pm and we arrived at 3.30pm - took forever!2025-05-24
  • reviews3★The bus drive left punctual but the drivers made so many stops along the way for smoking, that we arrived in Dhërmi over 30 minutes later than scheduled. People were also picked up along the way and at one point, the bus was so full, someone had to sit in a stool in the bus hallway.2026-05-26

  • reviews5★Très honnêtement nous avons était très surpris.. Nous avions plusieurs avis vraiment pas top et nous avons hésité à payer chère un taxi pour Tirana/Dhermi et au final le bus c’est super bien passé.. Prise en charge au top, place dans le bus au top.. Bus climatisé et pause de 25 minutes avec toilette et restauration ( à vos frais ).. Toilette gratuit.. Super voyage rien à dire. Je n’hésiterais pas à reprendre le bus pour 15€ SUPER !! Grand bus ;)2025-07-14

4 riders reported the bus left early or never arrived at all, with 1 saying staff took money then departed without him. On a line where 45 reviews rate it 4-5 stars and 20 rate it 1-2 stars, these departures without passengers cost us refunds, compensation claims, and damage to trust.

  • reviews1★reported thisI booked a bus through Gjirafa Travel, but the bus simply did not exist. I arrived at the station on time, but there was no bus, no driver, and no staff to assist me. I had to book another ticket last minute, which was frustrating and an unnecessary extra expense. I contacted customer service and requested a refund, but they never responded. Instead, they sent me a message asking me to rate my experience—so here it is: terrible service, zero reliability, and no customer support. I strongly advise against using this service unless you want to risk being stranded. I expect a proper response and a refund for the ticket I paid for.2025-03-11
  • reviews1★reported thisThe men running the North-South terminal were awful and lazy, except the younger one. The one sitting in the booth selling tickets was the worst. Busy talking to each other, fighting, and arguing instead of keeping the area clean and running on time. Not even a trash can for customers. Bus left an hour late. Aircon never got cold. Stopped halfway for a break. Stopped again to get a new tire, but did not tell customers why they stopped.2025-05-26

  • reviews1★Unfortunately there’s no 0 to select as it’s my score for this company. Staff 0 behaviour to treat customers, very rude and think we’re animals, no English at all. I got my tickets 3 weeks before my trip, due a problem with the taxi I arrived at bus station 10 min before to departure and the guy very rude simply told me there was only one seat left but I’ve bought 2. As I didn’t show up 30 min before they were sold all the tickets at moment in the bus station (???) and the only way to heading to Sardana is one of us seat on the floor during the trip of almost 4 hours!!!! It’s completely unacceptable, there’s no control about tickets, no security, no air conditioning, bus was messed of organisation, passagens discussing about seats as the info in the ticket was trrrible to understand as they mark with the pan (?), my seat in the ticket was 51 and the bus had only 49! The funny is that people who just bought tickets at bus station were seating and us who bought earlier to avoid problems seated on the floor, that’s disgusting! I will never recommend this company, better pay a little extra a rent a car or got a private van for groups. Avoid this company to preserve your mental health!2024-09-11
  • reviews1★i wanted to change destination location, but i could not. I was only given the option to change time/date.. even though I purchased premium flex.2025-05-06
  • reviews1★Absolutely unreliable service and the worst travel experience. On our onward journey from Tirana to Sarande we were boarded on a old small coach that was not good for travel longer than 1-2 hours - it also broke on the way and we were delayed by over 1 hours to reach Sarande. I had booked return tickets and to my surprise I was told the bus is cancelled. I didn't get any notice, email or call from the agency or travel operator and was left without information in the bus station in Sarande. I have to book a private taxi at EUR 150 to travel to Tirana as I had my flight. The cancellation without even informing the client is against the rule and laws and I have raised this with their customer service without any resolution yet. Absolutely poor service and not something you can rely on2025-05-07
  • reviews1★Unorganised2025-05-19
  • reviews1★Cogí el autobús de Sarande dirección a Tirana, ya tenía el ticket que lo compré a ustedes por internet, la salida del autobús de Sarande hacia TIRANA era a las 2 de la tarde del día 20 de Mayo. Pregunte al chico que estaba controlando los tickets de los viajeros que si podía darme un asiento un poco más adelante, ya que mi asiento era atrás del todo y yo me mareo y lo paso mal, la respuesta de este chico, con muy mala educación y muy alterado me contestó que cogiera un Taxi si me marehaba, me cuesta entender que personas como este chico puedan trabajar de esa forma nada de respeto hacia el viajero, cuando tiene que dar ejemplo de educación y saber estar, porque estás personas no hacen bien su trabajo y dan muy mala imagen al turismo con sus comportamientos, sinceramente llevó muy mala imagen del trato que se medio en esta Compañía por parte de esta persona que trabaja con ustedes, no llevo un buen recuerdo2025-05-22

  • reviews1★Yesterday at 4:30 pm, we took the AB979TK bus. The driver and his assistant played loud music from the moment we got off. 5 or 6 people repeatedly asked him to turn it down. When he didn't, I politely asked him to turn it down because it was becoming unbearable. He said no and laughed with his colleague. I decided to take a picture of both of us to post on social media because we couldn't believe the lack of respect. When I took the picture, he hit my hand and knocked my phone to the floor. It's worth remembering that he was the one driving in charge of more than 40 people. He still didn't turn the volume down. I don't understand how a company would hire such a disrespectful and violent person. I have a photo of both of us, from the bus with the license plate, and I will also post my feedback on Google and social media. I'm sorry for hiring people with such rudeness!2025-06-03
  • reviews1★It is stated on the website that non-flexible booking can be cancelled within one hour of booking but this feature is not working. I made an error with the time and could not cancel a booking immediately after. My money gone and no means of calling this company.2025-06-05
  • reviews1★The trip both ways was terrible. The drivers sell extra tickets and we were sitting on stairs. Ensure electronic check in, that people after having bought the tickets shouldn’t stand in the queue to make a check in the office 30 minutes befire - it’s old school in 21 century! You have foreigners coming from around the globe, please adapt the technologies to attract good tourists, that are ready to travel and pay in your country. Shame!2025-06-09

  • reviews1★We got two tickets for our round-trip bus journey from Tirana to Saranda (4 hrs bus ride each way) and it was awful. The bus was dirty, the air conditioning wasn’t working despite the high temperatures (making the ride very uncomfortable) and the bathroom was out of service. On both the outbound and return trips, the bus was delayed by over an hour. When we politely asked the staff if there was a problem, we were treated rudely and our concerns were dismissed. NOT RECOMMENDED.2025-06-28

  • reviews1★The busses we use it 1990s model busses. Air ventilator is not functioning till the journey starts. Additionally, there is no facility in the bus station, nowhere to eat nowhere to drink. Can you imagine a bus station in the centre of capital without any facility? We experienced.2025-07-22

  • reviews1★We took a bus from Tirana to Sarande on Friday 25th July 2025. That was the worse experience ever in any country, 41 degrees Celsius and no air conditioning. Everyone was close to fainting. Whole journey was supposed to finish in 4 hours and 15 minutes, we arrived after 6 hours. I would never go again with gjirafa travel.2025-07-26
  • reviews1★Bus too hot.2025-07-31
  • reviews1★The air con was so bad it hardly worked and the driver played music loudly the whole time when people were trying to sleep. The bus was also delayed because some girls were annoyed they couldn’t sit together so the driver tried to ask people to move and rearrange seats when people had gotten there early to get seats. Not a great experience2025-08-01

  • reviews1★I had a terrible experience with this agency. I booked a ticket from Bunece to Tirane, but the bus was delayed by more than 30 minutes. When I tried to contact the agency for information, the person I spoke with was extremely rude and offensive just because I asked for details about the arrival time. Completely unacceptable behavior. I will never use this agency again.2025-08-25
  • reviews1★Will be one of the 5 worst bus journeys I've experienced. I had purchased an online ticket and was seated in the middle back row. Online usually get priority seating. The journey took 5 hours instead of 4. We had an unofficial stop and not kept informed by the driver as to the reason. The air con was non existent, with no toilet on board I refrained from drinking but as a result experienced heat stroke from the lack of air. If buses do not come equipped with fully functioning air con then the buses should be fitted with windows that can be opened and closed2025-09-03
  • reviews1★We arrived first at the bus station and they gave us the last seat and they overbooked trip and they almost offer me the seat beside driver. We felt like discriminated because we’re the only Asian in the trip.2025-09-18
  • reviews1★Really disappointed. Late leaving both times we used them. Poor customer care. Also over 1 hour late getting to destination. Expected to get back from Saranda to Tirana at 13:50pm. No traffic and got back at 15:15. Missed by taxi as a result2025-09-18

Seats doesnt have pockets for personal stuff(like phone and water). Radio above our head was playing some indian or albanina folklore music loudly even when we tried to sleep.2025-09-22
  • reviews1★We need more location details for exp not north or south terminal..address details properly pls2025-09-24
  • reviews1★The worst bus ride of my life. The bus left Tirana almost 30 minutes late. The seats were extremely uncomfortable; they couldn't recline and there was no air conditioning. The bus stopped countless times; the driver even got off to eat for nearly 30 minutes, knowing he was running late. Finally, we arrived in Saranda almost an hour and a half late. Not recommended.2025-09-25

  • reviews1★To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to formally raise a complaint about the deeply unacceptable experience I had on 26/04/2026 with Gjirafa Travel, and I want to be very clear: I am not satisfied with a 1-star rating alone — I want a full refund, and I want this matter taken seriously. I booked my seat well in advance. This was not a last-minute reservation — I planned ahead, paid the full fare, and had every reasonable expectation that my seat would be held for me. On the day of travel, I encountered a delay and, knowing I would arrive approximately 10 minutes late, I attempted to call ahead and inform your team. Nobody answered. Not once. I arrived at 3:50 PM. My seat had been given away to another passenger. Let me be direct about what happened next: I was forced to sit on the floor of the bus. On the floor. After paying full price for a reserved seat. This is not a minor inconvenience — it is a complete failure of your basic obligation as a transport provider. A booked seat is a contract. You gave it away while I was actively trying to reach you. To make matters significantly worse, your staff’s behaviour toward me was rude and dismissive. Not apologetic. Not solution-oriented. Rude. When a paying customer is already in a difficult situation, that is the moment your staff should step up — and they did the opposite. I want to be very clear about what I am asking for: 1. A full refund for this journey, given that the service I paid for was not provided. 2. A written explanation of how my pre-booked seat was given to another passenger despite my prior contact attempt. 3. A formal response to the conduct of the staff member(s) involved. I gave this experience 1 star on your feedback platform, and I will not be stopping there. If this is not resolved promptly and to a satisfactory standard, I will be escalating this complaint to the relevant consumer protection authority and leaving detailed public reviews across every platform available to me. I have screenshots, records of my attempted call, and the timestamp of my arrival. I expect a response within 5 working days.2026-04-26
  • reviews1★The bus has high aircondition in the roof, without any control panel! Traveltime to Saranda took one hour more than usually!2026-05-05
  • reviews1★Our bus was dripping water all over and we kept going on the entire journey from tirana to sarandë. The same bus went back to Tirana that night. I expect a refund or I won’t be travelling with gjirafa travel anymore. I can prove that with several videos.2026-05-19
  • reviews1★The esim didn't work and the QR code I received was "blank" (no URL embedded). There were no customer service on Sunday to help, I did send a WhatsApp message to the customer service number but didn't get a reply until 2 days later, and the agents' responses were completely useless, they just wanted to close the case and were not even keen to look into the core of the problem to help. I didn't get to activate the esim in the entire trip, it was a total waste of money, and at the end of trip I got no refund or proper help or whatsoever. I would ask everyone to avoid gjirafa!2026-05-29
  • reviews1★Yes, the first bus from the two tickets I bought from you guys. The first bus was two hours late getting there from what the ticket says.

  • reviews1★I took the bus Tirana-Saranda on 13 july 2026 at 9:45. It left perfectly in time, but we spent almost 6 hours instead of 4 as it was written on the ticket. The bus was travelling at 40km/h on a STRAIGHT street without any traffic and we was 1 hour and a half late to our check-in appointment for the hotel in Saranda. Hope I’ll get a refund, terrible experience.2026-07-18

The bus was really old and had outdated interior2026-08-30
  • reviews1★A very bad experience. The old bus, without seatbelts in all the seats, the chairs didn't recline because they were broken. They take people sitting in the aisle, there's no automatic ticket control with the QR code issued. They put us in separate seats even though we asked to go together. I do not recommend this company.2026-08-31
  • reviews1★I wouldn't recommend Albania to anyone, most of the people are unfriendly, trying to scam and just not worth your money. Go to Corfu and just go visit Sarande or any other place from there for 1 or 2 days max. Better to avoid Albania.2026-08-31

  • reviews2★Driver smoked on the bus.2025-05-23
  • reviews2★Cramped coach with no toilet, left us in the coach for an hour without AC running. The coach was an hour late into Saranda. The driver was angry and seemed to be annoyed at two separate people who needed to stop for the bathroom, yet had no problem stopping to pick up and drop friends on the way who were not paying. We stopped once in 2 hours which was reasonable for us. But people have different needs. The website wasn’t really clear about where to find Tisa Travel. Cost of travel is good, but comfort and experience not so good.2025-06-02
  • reviews2★The booking process was totally fine and efficient thru the website. The actual journey was dreadful. Billed as 4 hours with 15 minute stop it was almost 6. Several extra stops where we sat in the bus waiting for not sure what, and the aircon was not very effective especially on the random 30 min stop. Seriously sweaty. Then an issue with an extremely drunk and stoned Frenchman, a fight nearly broke out on several occasions. He was unsafe to remain on the bus but they just shouted and swore at him, should have thrown him off at the pit stop. Not a good experience at all.2025-06-14

  • reviews2★The travel was not pleasent at all. We arrived 1h after the arrival time, there was no ac inside the bus (at least not enought for the 40 degrees we experienced) and in a total of more then 5h we stoped just once to use the bathroom.2025-07-22
  • reviews2★Very disorganized staff, for something so simple to get people on the bus it turned into chaos.It reallt only takes 1 switched-on person to explain to all the tourists who do not speak the language that their seat number is on the ticket.It took ages for people to understand what was happening onboard.Something that could have been done in 2 minutes with anyone from Girafa Travels making a little effort and in the end it is in the benefit of the bus driver to leave on time.Thank you2025-08-01
  • reviews2★There is still a lot to do, starting from building a proper bus terminal, setting up a proper ticket office in Tirana at the station, having better quality buses and drivers that are maybe not smoking during the journey and yelling & swearing all the time. There were also some dangerous traffic situations which really scared me. The overall experience was unfortunately quite negative.2025-08-04
  • reviews2★Réservation des billets très intuitive très rapide. Aucun soucis. Cependant le transporteur est parti en retard et s’est arrêté toutes les heures ce qui fait que le voyage annoncé à 4h de durée en a en fait durer plus de 6h30 avec une climatisation ne fonctionnant pas correctement.

It actually took over 5 hours 30 mins, with the driver making numerous unscheduled stops to collect/drop-off items.

  • reviews2★The bus ride down to Sarande was great, good information from the bus driver, safe driving and comfortable air conditioning vehicle. The drive back to Tirana was the worst thing Ive experienced, 5.5 hour drive instead of 4, no air conditioning, cramped in a mini van with a driver who was rude and did not speak English. He would pull over the side of road and smoke and then not answer any questions we had, the van was like a sauna and we nearly missed our flight.2026-05-26
  • reviews2★We booked online but we had no seats booked and we have to reach early to get a seat on bus which is not really helpful. Saw some of the passengers struggling also as they booked seats but were being almost harassed for not having a seat in person but they actually booked online and the bus personnel have no idea nor did they speak english. A total mess2026-06-04

  • reviews3★Goof2024-09-02
  • reviews3★The bus was very old, filthy and generally very uncomfortable - I have bruises on my legs from the seat pressing into them, plus if anyone reclines at all then there is no space at all. Also, the bus stopped far too many times, which was annoying. Multiple times they picked up people, even though there were no seats available, so those people ended up standing in the aisles imposing on the original passenger's space. The multiple stops seemed totally unnecessary too, turning a 4 hour trip (which could probably be 3) into a 5.5 hour trip. It was also almost thirty mins late departing from the original station in Tirana.2024-09-04
  • reviews3★The driver made multiple unscheduled stops. I arrived at my location and hour later than the time that was recorded. There was no communication from the driver about the stops and everyone started to get off the bus before the final stop without warning2024-09-05
  • reviews3★El chófer manejaba mut rápido2024-09-05
  • reviews3★Buona organizzazione2024-09-13
  • reviews3★The driver stopped the van for a long break. He also picked up parts and delivered them to businesses on his route. The caused us to be late to our destination.2025-01-15
  • reviews3★The buses are quite outdated, but more importantly they are often not clean. Especially the windows where people rest their heads, filthy!2025-04-15
  • reviews3★The bus company were very rude. Our taxi was late so we did not get there until 5 minutes prior to departure. The man in the ticket office said “it is not his f***ing problem” once on the bus 20 minutes into the journey they checked our tickets and my bag had ripped mine in half. He spoke very rude about us in Albanian and told me to get of the bus and I was not welcome. Bus was pulled over by the police and staff did not make anyone aware what was going on and why we stopped unexpectedly for half an hour on a full and hot bus for 5 hour journey2025-06-01
  • reviews3★Ok ,should be better aircondition2025-06-05
  • reviews3★Although the bus left on time it was delayed on both trips. I wish it would have been cleaner. Also, would have appreciated if the driver would inform the passengers if an unexpected stop had to be made or the break duration half way through the trip.2025-06-15
  • reviews3★Bus was old and smelly and the air con didn’t really work.2025-07-04
  • reviews3★The journey was longer than expected, both ways so it should be calculate that way. (5 hours instead if 4) but overall it was Okay2025-07-14
  • reviews3★I rode a bus from Tirana to Sarande. The staff was rude, the bus was late leaving and 2 hours late arriving, it was hot, cramped, and they didn't stop for FOUR hours to let us use a bathroom. So not the best experience but it got us to where we needed to go so that's a plus.2025-07-29
  • reviews3★First the 4 euros extra for booking are not so ideal. The bus station is not a bus station but a parking lot and it is not obvious where to go. It should be more explained if someone book online.not toilets on the bus for a 5 hours ride is also wild.2025-07-30
  • reviews3★Bus clean and confortable but tirana to saranda took over 5:30 hours instead of 4, and no charging station for phones. the delay made the journey really hard to bear.2025-08-06
  • reviews3★Generally positive, but the bus arrived to Saranda an hour later than promised.2025-08-06
  • reviews3★Too noisy, air conditioning does not work well, the trip is too long. No toilets in the bus is really hard and no information about the stop.2025-08-08
  • reviews3★Shouting between staff and staff and customer2025-08-19
  • reviews3★El bus era muy incómodo, mal mantenido, la suspensión inexistente. Cada bache que tomaba se sentía en los riñones. El aire acondicionado deficiente, la limpieza nula. El trato de los conductores, de lo más prepotentes. La verdad que no elegiría Tisa nunca más. Nos dejaron el Sarande en una calle en el centro sin siquiera darnos alguna explicación. Tuvimos que sacar las valijas nosotros de adentro del bus. Una experiencia desastrosa.2025-09-08
  • reviews3★The bus started off warm and progressively got way too warm throughout the journey. The toilet on board also didn’t work but it was efficient with getting us there and was very cheap2025-09-11
  • reviews3★The bus was scheduled to depart at 16:00 and the driver advised us to go there at 15:30. We did as we suggested but the bus eventually departed at 16:20.2025-09-21
  • reviews3★Too much stops in the middle2025-10-12
  • reviews3★The return bus was terrible. It was a small van. It was completely full and I was squeezed into the back row. I felt very cramped between two big men. One man had a strong body odor. This lasted for five hours. It was torture. You need a bigger buses. Don't pack a lot of people into a van. I really wish Flix buses in Albania.2025-11-04
  • reviews3★Van was comfortable and we arrived close to our on time but the break was longer than driver said, he smoked while he drive and he yelled at us to get out of the bus and had no idea the bus was at the end. Also check in I had QR code and was told I needed my online receipt. Luckily I had it. Not very nice. A lot of frustrated yelling.2026-02-24
  • reviews3★The estimated travel time was not accurate, so for my trip to Tirana from Saranda I was late to my bus and missed my ticket slot. On the way to Saranda from Tirana it also took about two hours longer than expected. Driver from Saranda was smoking in the van the whole time.2026-03-22
  • reviews3★Buying tickets was the best part of the journey. The whole experience was less enjoyable. Printed Gjirafa tickets I should have exchanged to the local ticket in a small cabin at the station (which is an extra step in a process). The tickets told us to come 30 minutes before departure time, so we spent it in the heat, hiding in a shadow of the bus (there is no roof whatsoever). The vehicle floor was sticky, air conditioners almost didn’t work, so 4 hours of medium range suffering and we were at Saranda. Safely though, thanks to the driver. There was a sanitary stop in the middle of the journey which was nice, opportunity to buy water and clean toilets.2026-08-10
  • reviews3★The quality of the buses could be improved. We were unable to adjust our seats and the air conditioning was not appropriate. I was also concerned to see the driver smoking while driving, as this raised safety concerns.2026-08-11
  • reviews3★This is our first time with this company… C’était notre première fois. Nous devions arriver à 12:45… et sommes arrivés à 2:23….2026-08-12
  • reviews3★So it a bus I know but the orginizer gave the same buss seat to three people including me then he put me in a very bad seat, the air conditioner was extremely bad it was a nightmare for the journey between Durres and salande2026-08-24
  • reviews4★Departure was on time! The break was a little bit too long in our opinion. So at the end we weren't on time in Saranda. The driver was good and we had a ventilated vehicle.2024-08-25
  • reviews4★Decent enough booking process. Departure and arrival times ought to be more accurate.2024-09-12
  • reviews4★Had to change bus right before start after sitting in another one for about one hour, staff could be more polite2024-09-14
  • reviews4★The staff were helpful however we had to change to a smaller bus which was quite old and not very nice but then we had to change back to the bigger bus which was somewhat newer which I was happy about. Overall it was pretty good.2024-09-21
  • reviews4★It was great to have the opportunity to pay for the ticket online. More details about the procedure to verify the online ticket at the bus station would be very helpful2024-09-24
  • reviews4★Good experience even if the travel was a bit longer than what was written2024-09-24
  • reviews4★Maybe saying where the stop is, so ppl know.2024-10-22
  • reviews4★Was easy to navigate Albania, easy to book.2024-10-31
  • reviews4★Good2024-11-05
  • reviews4★The process went fairly smooth. There was a lot we didn’t know and we expected are large bus but the sprinter van was fine.2024-11-09
  • reviews4★the experience was good on the bus. I would recommend having signage at South and North terminal station. The only reason I found where to check in was because a staff member was standing there and asked me. Then he told me which direction to find the bus but it is so hectic at that station I think the buses also need better signage.2024-12-02
  • reviews4★Only positive impressions! I really liked everything! A couple of recommendations, though: • Don’t drive too fast, as it’s important to be as cautious as possible in the mountains; • Basic knowledge of English would be helpful for the drivers.2025-01-13
  • reviews4★All was very good!2025-01-18
  • reviews4★Autobusi ne te vertete mberriti 30 minuta me vonese2025-01-30
  • reviews4★The Bus from Tirana to Saranda needed more then one hour more because of traffic jam in several places. Rest was fine Thank you2025-04-17
  • reviews4★Good. But staff is not very friendly2025-04-30
  • reviews4★The driver was really rude, not friendly at all! Wanted to ask him to change the AC tempreture a bit higher, he pretended he can not READ and he sent me away. So the staff is definitely NOT a pleasent experience. He also didn’t mention where and WHEN will we stop, everyone were just waiting the bus to stop for a break (go to toilet, eat etc..) it would have been nice if the driver at the start of the journey could inform us about this.2025-05-21
  • reviews4★Booking was fine. When arriving, company told me that lucky seats were available, I don't think they take the booking system too seriously in terms of reservations.2025-06-02
  • reviews4★quiet good but Website needs some improvement2025-06-06
  • reviews4★A good experience2025-06-08
  • reviews4★It was good, but not really clear where to transfer to south and north terminal tirana2025-06-13
  • reviews4★When we had a break, there was no information on how long. The journey was much longer than indicated.2025-06-20
  • reviews4★Onduidelijkheid bij vertrekpunt in Saranda. Geen communicatie. Medewerkers maken zich niet bekend. De organisatie is onherkenbaar, dragen geen dienstkleding. Spijkerbroek en T-shirt. Wie is wie/wat? Chauffeur rookt achter het stuur tijdens de rit, diverse keren. Geen communicatie tijdens een stop. Hoe lang blijven we bij het restaurant?2025-06-22
  • reviews4★Bus was quite warm, aircon didn‘t work too well. And if you‘re over 190cm - you simply dont fit in the seats. Luckily there were empty seats, so i could solve that Problem. But staff was nice, booking was easy, so all in all a good experience.2025-06-26

  • reviews4★Great experience!2025-08-09
  • reviews4★Everything was fine, the bus was old.2025-08-09
  • reviews4★Tooked way longer than described because of the traffic2025-08-18
  • reviews4★The journey went well. Only the bus was a little bit old, but thank god there was airco in it. The chauffeur drove also really good, so it was a nice experience.2025-08-22
  • reviews4★Bus came on time. Air conditioning was working just fine. One bus stop in 5 hours is good.2025-08-25
  • reviews4★Seats too Small2025-08-25
  • reviews4★There were a few people who bought tickets and weren't able to get on the bus or were offered to sit on the floor (some did!) Is this double-selling or a faulty reservation system? Regardless this HAS to be fixed- btw these weren't $1-2 cheap tix but almost $20 (which can get me from DC to NYC). Once we got on the bus the ride was alright, AC was working and all was good...until the bus side panel holding all the suitcases flew open and a bunch of luggage (including mine) went flying down the road. This caused an almost 2 hour delay though thankfully there were no injuries or accidents beyond 1 destroyed and 1 lost suitcase. Girafa: make sure the buses have enough seats for all of us and are operationally sound...2025-08-25
  • reviews4★All good👍🏻2025-08-26
  • reviews4★Bus was comfortable, check in ok, but we haven’t received info about the stops. Also, the bus arrived at destination almost an hour later…2025-08-27

  • reviews4★Journey was OK and without problem. The only one problem was at the beginning when I wasn't sure for what bus should I go (it was bus to Tirane).2025-10-15
  • reviews4★It was fine, even if we arrived a little behind the schedule.2025-10-16
  • reviews4★Small bus with no leg room. People jammed in with luggage in the aisles as not enough room in the back. Driver was good but arrived late. Not sure if this was related to the extra stops that were made. Made it safe and sound.2025-10-24
  • reviews4★Print the addresses of the offices/kiosks where you have to go to collect tickets on the electronic ticket confirmation (especially for Tirana North/South terminal as it is a very large area and very chaotic for people who are not used to it).2025-11-27
  • reviews4★The journey wasn’t bad but it would have been nice to have been informed that we were running late and expected time of arrival at Saranda2026-04-19
  • reviews4★The fee that Gjirafa takes is a bit high2026-04-26
  • reviews4★I booked my ride from tirana to Saranda and back, and overall it was a good experience. Though a little bit here and there, like the bus didn’t had proper working AC for the ride back, so was a bit hot. Good thing the weather was nice. The ride from tirana to Saranda was but the mini van was a bit dirty. But overall a good experience.2026-05-06
  • reviews4★Good experience overall2026-06-19
  • reviews4★Overall good experience, i think the prblem is the drivers never scan the wallet qr code but they want the email.2026-06-19
  • reviews4★The bus was very old, without toilet in a large journey and the aconditioned air insuficiente. It is not aprópiate to get tickets Edith the number of seats just in the ticket office ( we had just a qr )2026-06-21
  • reviews4★Globalement tout s'est très bien passé ! Le document fourni avec les informations de voyage que j'avais imprimé ne semblait pas toujours très clair pour les chauffeurs de navettes pour ou vers l'aéroport...2026-06-27
  • reviews4★Overall fine for the price. The aircon was not very efficient and although ok when cooler nearer the coast, leaving Tirana in 34/35 degrees was uncomfortable. This must be awful in August. The driver needs to be more assertive about explaining the length of break ( he was clearly very annoyed with the individuals who held up departure for the 2nd leg by 15+ minutes. Good for him, I would have gone without them!)2026-06-30
  • reviews4★We left Tirana with 15 minutes delay, we do not know why. It might help if the colleagues could speak English. The overall experience is OK.2026-07-07
  • reviews4★You could improve the buses, more technology like chargers!2026-07-15

  • reviews4★It was a good ride and the driver tried to stop as I had to urgently pee, but I had to hold it for reallllyyy long!2026-08-01
  • reviews4★1) staff could be more polite and informative not in fighting mode. 2) travel destination could be more informative including breaking location. 3) Early seat selection could be initiated during the ticket booking in internet. 4) I would like to thank the bus driver. He was very kind and informative.2026-08-07

  • reviews4★Everything went well. The travel was Way more longer because the traffic, you have to keep that ín mind.2026-08-13
  • reviews4★Quite good. Bus not really modern, no toilet and only one rest stop. But overall totally fine for the price.2026-08-14
  • reviews4★It should be possible to change the number of people, not just edit the names.2026-08-20
  • reviews4★The bus was extremely hot the first hour. It is not explained when purchased ticket that it is your seat number2026-08-21
  • reviews4★The booking process with Girafa was smooth and uncomplicated, but the actual bus operator wasn’t quite as good. Broken seats and chaos with seat alllocation. Still departed and arrived on-time though (within reasonable tolerance)2026-08-24
  • reviews4★Unfortunately, in retrospect, I don’t recommend the bus system in Albania. Private transfer is much better. But thank you Gjirafa for making it easy to at least get tickets.2026-08-25
  • reviews4★It was good2026-08-26

The driver Smoking while driving Constantly using his phone, at times with both hands off the steering wheel and he exceeded the speed limit countless times. It was only because of warnings from the flashing lights of approaching vehicles he slowed down. The air conditioning on the bus was inadequate.2025-06-29
  • reviews5★Exceptional service and professionalism We traveled with Classic Company from Kopyevo to Ohrid, and everything was smooth, fast, and very comfortable. The night ride was handled by a highly professional driver who made the trip feel safe and easy. Our next trip was from Ohrid to Tirana, scheduled for 6 AM. Due to a language barrier with some of the staff, we accidentally boarded the wrong bus — we were told it was going to Tirana, but it turned out our actual bus was a different one. What happened next truly surprised us: the company arranged a private transfer just for the two of us. The car came all the way from their office (about 30 minutes from the border), picked us up, and drove us across the border into Albania and all the way to Tirana — a 3-hour trip! Possibly, no one else had booked that bus, but still — they didn’t cancel it. They honored our tickets and provided a magical level of service that we had never seen before. We are extremely grateful and impressed. Highly recommended!2025-06-30

  • reviews5★The website is easy to use and like the convenience of booking online. The trip was fine but was a bit nervous about the condition of the bus. It was 90 minutes instead of 60. minutes for the trip. And I know it's common in Eastern Europe for buses to be late but wish the trip duration is more accurate. Perhaps more information about the actual type of bus and its condition like - the ability to rate the company.2025-04-28

  • reviews1★reported thisVery unorganized, cause they sold more tickets than the seats.2025-06-17
  • reviews1★reported thisI didn’t like the experience at all. The indications for the meet point were not clear and the contact number provided on the website didn’t help us at all. Also I think it’s important to provide a number to whom clients can write on Whatsapp, as many tourist only have internet. The bus didn’t have any places where to sit, so my friends and I stayed on our feet for most of the travel. I would never recommend this website.2026-06-27
  • reviews1★reported thisWe had very bad experience. On the website we booked the bus says that the journey from Vlore to Saranda takes 3 hours and it says the journey is direct, the bus operator was Transbus. However,the bus took five and half hour to arrive, because the driver over loaded passengers, he stopped many places to pick up passengers, many people had to stand on the bus for the whole journey, it was a very hot day the bus had no air condition, everyone was suffering with the heat and stuffy bus. The bus is not same with over loading passsengers as it was difficult to go up the hill it went slowly like walking. Because it was so hot the driver had to open the bus door during the journey to let some fresh air comes in. The bus was old and dirty. l do not recommend this journey.2026-08-17
  • reviews3★reported thisThe bus was on time but it took 4 hours instead for 3 hours.(not much trafic) I bought my ticket on line but those who hadn't ticket were already onboard and took all the seats.2026-07-11
  • reviews1★Porque no nos dejaban entrar al bus con los tickets on line al principio nos ponían muchas pegas luego despues de insistir nos acabaron dejando2025-04-20
  • reviews1★Found out on the bus that the ticket price online was double what people were paying on the bus. Could have just shown up and paid there2025-05-26
  • reviews1★The trip from Vlore to Sarande was not good at all. First, the scheduled arrival was supposed to be 14h30, but we only arrived at 15h30, not because of the traffic, but because the driver decided to stop 1h only after our departure from Vlora at a cafe on our way, and also kept stopping several times on the way to pick-up and drop-off people. Because of this delay, I nearly could have missed a tour that I’ve booked in Sarande. Moreover, the bus in itself was not good with the smell of the engine smoke all the way. So definitely not a good trip unfortunately, and sorry for this feedback but it’s the truth.2025-06-26
  • reviews1★Really upset, I expect reimbursement. The information about the travel is totally incorrect : none of the many stops is displayed on the ticket. Including the other ones in Vlora that could have arranged us. The time of arrival is totally wrong (18h30 instead of 16h30). That made our decision to take this trip irrelevant, since we miss all buses in saranda. Please contact us to reimburse us2025-07-09
  • reviews1★I paid 33euros for 2 passengers online for a trip from Vlore station to Saranda which would have cost just 20 euros if we had paid at the bus station. First off, it took a while to find your representative at Vlore station. We took off at 2.30 but the bus was moved very slowly and practically picked /drop off passengers at almost every stop/city. Meanwhile on your website you states that the trip was a direct 2 hours trip to Sarande. To make matters worse, the vehicle developed a fault on our way and we waited for almost an hour for them to get it fixed. This is the worst bus service I’ve ever experienced. A trip that was supposed to take 2 hours took us over 5 hours. It’s bad enough that we paid almost double of what we should have paid had we not booked on your website.2025-07-14
  • reviews1★There was no connection between the service we booked in the app and what we got when we arrived at the bus station. We certainly took whichever bus was scheduled for the time slot we bought but it was a small 12-13 seat van, which stopped in every possible spot along the way to pickup/drop off passengers, drove insanely unsafely, speeding in curvy roads while raining and making what was initially sold as a 2 hour direct (inland/highway) trip into a 3.5 hours coastal nerve wrecking night ride. The worst bus ride ever.2025-12-31
  • reviews1★Very bad service2026-04-10
  • reviews1★The trip was very disappointing. At first, the driver was driving extremely slowly for a long time and was always on his phone, sometimes only around 30 km/h. Later, the complete opposite happened: he drove down the winding mountain roads far too fast and recklessly, which felt very unsafe and uncomfortable. On top of that, the journey took about one and a half hours longer than originally scheduled. Overall, it was not a pleasant experience at all. Next time, I will definitely choose a different bus company. I didnt felt Safe!!!2026-05-19

  • reviews1★Be more specific about how many stops bus will going to have it’s said on the ticket it’s a direct bus from vlore to Sarande and it’s stopped like 5 times and the whole journey took like 6 hours and the bus was moving like a turtle very slow2026-07-15
  • reviews1★The ticket was fake and the bus did not exist2026-08-05
  • reviews1★The bus is NOT direct, he stops for random people and at main stops. The driver was not polite to me, travelling alone he watched me struggle to put the bags in the undercarriage then proceeded to shout in his language that it’s been put in wrong, I later watched him help multiple people with their luggage. He also snatched my personal bag off me to put in the under carriage and another passenger beckoned him to give it back as he understood my English when I said “I have medicine in that bag” DO BOT BOOK WITH TRANSBUS. Also the journey was 5 and a half hours from vlore to saranda.2026-08-18

  • reviews3★It took tooooo long, 5 hours from Saranda to Vlora and even the way back!! The minibus and the bus were too old and we prayed for our lives to reach to the destination safe and sound!!! The drivers were very helpful and kind but the whole vehicles should be changed.2026-08-15
  • reviews4★I am writing to express my extreme dissatisfaction with the experience we had on our journey from Vlora to Saranda with your company. Firstly, the driver was extremely aggressive towards us and attempted to overcharge us a significant amount for our bicycles. We had to negotiate for a long time just to get on the bus, and the staff did not assist us with loading or unloading the bikes, which we had to disassemble ourselves. Additionally, the trip was supposed to take about two hours, but it ended up taking over four hours with more than twenty stops along the way. The driver also smoked in front of us and drove in a very dangerous manner. Furthermore, the driver arbitrarily set the price, which was unacceptable. Given these issues, I am requesting an immediate refund for the service provided. I look forward to your prompt response. Sincerely,2025-08-07

The bus was sold with more seats than it has: 4 riders report overbooking left passengers standing for hours with no air conditioning, and one family missed their flight. We must fix how Riviera Tours counts and sells seats, or passengers will stop trusting Gjirafa to book this line.

  • reviews1★reported thisThere were no seats available when we arrived. The driver moved items left to reserve seats when we insisted. The same happened to friends travelling in the same bus. There were unpleasant arguments over seats. There were not enough seats for the number of passengers. The bus went with four passengers standing which is dangerous. I can no longer trust girafa to book tickets.2026-05-01

  • reviews1★Wij hadden een busticket geboekt van Tirana naar Himare, bleek dat de bus niet aan het vliegveld stond maar in centrum Tirana waar we niet meer op tijd konden geraken en we dus hebben gemist. Let goed op dus! Was voor ons niet duidelijk2025-06-07
  • reviews1★Good morning, despite the hot weather, the driver repeatedly turned off the air conditioning even after being asked several times to keep it on. When I pointed it out, he laughed together with another lady and spoke loudly with her for most of the journey. Thank you.2026-03-06

  • reviews1★Dear Sir or Madam, I tried to prepare well for my trip from Munich to Himare, but I learned otherwise at Tinara Airport: planning and preparation in the usual sense seems to be a waste of time and money here. It frustrated me greatly, and still frustrates me, that I still don't understand what and where the South North Terminal is. Likewise, I still don't understand why a bus company's journey from the airport to Himare doesn't start at the South North Terminal, as advertised (which apparently doesn't even exist), but rather at a different, very distant location, which I can only reach by using another bus company, which I found thanks to some kind people. I thought I had arrived half an hour early, right on time at 12:30, so I could take the bus to Himare at 1 p.m. (the journey from the airport to Himare was listed as taking four hours). However, it took another hour before we stopped at the designated rest area, where we were informed that the bus we had booked with Riviera Tours had already left. In hindsight, this made sense, but I was also perplexed and very surprised. We were also told that we would need to buy another ticket, as we would now be traveling with a different bus company. Unfortunately, we couldn't withdraw any cash from the ATMs at the airport, which had already confused and worried us. We ended up traveling with the other company. The journey took at least five and a half hours. During the trip, I kept wondering where I could get cash and how, or even if, this would affect our planned return trip on August 31st. It probably wouldn't work, because as the journey dragged on and on, I realized I had once again booked a return ticket in advance for nothing. We will never be able to make our flight back to Munich on August 31st at 12 pm if we take the bus from Himare at 5 am, since the journey back to the layover takes at least 5-6 hours, where the other bus company then takes us to the airport in about an hour. In total, I have paid over €64 for nothing for a bus journey that takes about 3 hours longer than expected and which we had based our flight booking on. The fact is, I now have to leave a day earlier and therefore have to pay for a night's accommodation in Himare for nothing, and I now have to find accommodation in Tirana so that I can make my flight on August 31st on time. All told, I now have approximately €150 in additional costs due to the missing information. I have not yet received a reply to the two emails I sent to gjirafa. Please explain to me what advantages this approach offers all parties involved, in case I haven't yet grasped the underlying rationale. Thank you for your understanding. Sylvia Daub2026-08-19
  • reviews2★The bus from Tirana to Himare was supposed to take 2 hours and 40 minutes, but instead it took 4 hours and 30 minutes. I understand that buses can’t always arrive exactly on time, but that is a massive difference and it ruined our plans for the evening. Also, the air conditioning was almost non-existent, which was a shame given that it was 32 degrees outside. It felt like I was boiling during those hours. I didn’t give a one-star rating only because I appreciated how easy it was to buy the bus tickets online, and in the end, I did reach my final destination safely.2025-08-04

  • reviews1★reported thisNever take this bus!! The bus took on 4 passenger above capcity, had no aicon, our luggage had to stand on the floor between the seats, with people sitting on it, and the driver stoped multiple times to talk to people along the road. Amongst those stops where stops to possible take upon more passengers, although we were already far above the buses seat capacity. The driver was on his phone the whole time, drove too far and had to turn around, and gave no information in enligsh. In all the drive took 4 hours, instead of 3 hours, and the bus even started drive before the scheduled departure. In all the dribe was horrible and unsafe. If possible, our group would have given it zero stars, and recommend choosing a taxi. The only positive part of this drive was sick and horrific story we now have to tell our friends and future kids.2025-07-02

  • reviews2★Very frustrating. Mini bus was already having technical issues before journey started and 25 minutes later it broke down and we had to wait 30minutes for replacement. No one told us what was happening.2025-08-07
  • reviews2★Për të filluar, furgoni nuk kishte ajër të kondicionuar ose dritare dhe në gusht... brenda kishte një sauna, kështu që shoferi vendosi të hapte derën e furgonit dhe të ngiste ashtu... Gjithashtu, dukej sikur furgoni do të hiqte dorë nga udhëtimi në mes të autostradës, e di që është një udhëtim i shpejtë dhe i lirë, por ne jemi prapë njerëz dhe presim të paktën pak siguri, unë jam nga Amerika Latine dhe as atje nuk kemi këtë lloj udhëtimi... përvojë e tmerrshme.2025-08-12
  • reviews3★The ride was recent. It was a little tight on the bus, as it was a mini bus. It was good that with it made a lot of stops that made us able to buy things along the way and take some bathrooms breaks. But the online scheadule for the time the ride would arrive in Pristina were off by 1 hour and 15 min, you really shoud updatr this as sometimes people are depending on the real arriving time.2024-10-22

Including through an international border. The van was very old and didn’t have AC, the driver then drove with the door open. We were grateful for the fresh air but very dangerous. We got to our destination so 2 star but would never book with this company again!2025-07-07

Website thoshte qe per te kapur autobusin e fundit per Shkoder, duhet ta merrja autobusin ne ora 16:40 per te arriitur ne Prizren ne 18:15, dhe pastaj ne 18:30 nga Prizreni per Shkoder. Kur arrita ne stacion te autobuseve ne Prishtine, shoferi i autobusit per Prizren me tha qe nuk arrijne asnjehere ne Prizren para ores 18:35. Domethene do ta kisha humbur komplet mundesine per te mberritur ne Shkoder ate nate po te isha bazuar vetem ne informatat ne Gjirafa. Gjate asaj kohe morra vesh qe kishte autobus qe shkonte ne Ulqin, me ndalese ne Shkoder dhe perfundova duke e marre ate opsion.2025-07-04

  • reviews1★reported thisSe potessi mettere 0 stelle lo farei. Purtroppo la mia esperienza non è stata affatto positiva. Ho comprato i biglietti online e non sono garantiti, il personale fa salire coloro che hanno acquistato il biglietto cartaceo e se rimane posto ti fa salire. Ho prenotato per Pristina il 14/08/2026, la mattina nessuna informazione e l'autobus che dovevamo prendere non si è presentato e ho dovuto prendere quello dell' ora successiva senza che nessuno ha dato informazioni utili e quindi siamo arrivati a destinazione con quasi 2 ore di ritardo. Il vero problema è stato il viaggio di ritorno dove nonostante avessimo il biglietto ci è stato negato di salire. I posti disponibili erano meno della metà del necessario. Dopo discussioni hanno fatto viaggiare alcuni di noi in condizioni pessime, in totale assenza di procedure di sicurezza viaggiando su un banchetto di plastica nel corridoio, senza aria condizionata e in totale illegalità. Altri sono dovuti rimanere a terra nonostante avessero acquistato il biglietto. È stata una vera follia, senza nessuna indicazione, lasciando delle persone con regolare biglietto in un paese straniero. Mi sarei aspettato minimo il rimborso del biglietto e le scuse con una alternativa per tornare e invece il personale se ne è fregato. Ho trovato tutto questo totalmente assurdo, una situazione in cui non mi sono mai trovato nonostante io viaggi ogni mese anche per lavoro. Sconsiglio vivamente a tutti questa pessima esperienza.2026-08-15

  • reviews1★On 14.08.2025 I traveled with Gazmend Turist from Prishtina to Skopje. Unfortunately, the experience was extremely disappointing and unsafe. The bus broke down in the middle of the highway, and all passengers were left waiting for over 2.5 hours at night without any clear information about what was happening. Even more concerning, no safety measures were taken – not even a simple warning triangle to alert other vehicles on the road. This created a dangerous situation for both passengers and other drivers. Basic passenger communication and safety procedures were completely missing. I expected at least timely updates, assistance, or visible concern for the wellbeing of the passengers, but this was not the case. This level of service is unacceptable for an international route. I strongly recommend the company to improve both safety standards and communication with passengers in such situations.2025-08-15
  • reviews1★The driver of the bus from Skopje to Pristina (on October 6, 2025, at 8 AM) tried to throw us off the bus despite the fact that we had tickets for a specific departure time – he ordered passengers with tickets bought online to get off.2025-10-09

Therefore, I am requesting a refund of the ticket reservation costs and compensation.2026-01-06

  • reviews1★My experience with Gjirafa Travel / Gazmend Turist was extremely disappointing and, frankly, unacceptable. The departure journey from Skopje to Prishtina was very unpleasant. The air conditioning barely worked, making the bus hot, stuffy, and uncomfortable throughout the trip. Despite passengers raising concerns, the driver was rude and unwilling to address the issue. The return journey from Prishtina to Skopje was even worse. We arrived at the station around 5:30 PM, well before the scheduled departure, and presented our valid electronic ticket on our phones. However, the driver refused to let us board, insisting that only a printed ticket would be accepted, despite no such requirement being clearly communicated during the booking process. We were forced to run around the bus station searching for a print shop, causing unnecessary stress and anxiety. After eventually allowing us to board, the driver deliberately made us sit at the very back of the bus despite many other seats being available. Throughout the interaction, his behaviour was rude, disrespectful, and unprofessional. We left feeling that we were treated differently because of our skin colour, which made the experience even more upsetting. No passenger should be subjected to such treatment. Good customer service starts with respect, professionalism, and equal treatment for everyone. I urge Gjirafa Travel to investigate this incident thoroughly and provide me with a formal response explaining what action has been taken against the staff involved. If I do not receive a satisfactory response, I will have no option but to escalate this matter to the relevant consumer protection authorities and share my experience on public review platforms so that other travellers are aware of how we were treated. I sincerely hope the company takes this complaint seriously and ensures that no other passengers have to endure such an unpleasant experience.2026-07-11
  • reviews1★Even though I was there on time, they refused to let me board the vehicle, saying it was full. I had made my reservation hours in advance. They let someone who paid in cash board instead, and left me behind. Even after I told the driver that I had already paid in advance, he just shrugged, made dismissive gestures with his hands, and didn’t even say a word. When I asked for my money back, he simply waved his hands, got into the vehicle, and drove away.2026-07-14
  • reviews1★I paid money just like everyone else so I can sit on the floor of the bus. There were no free sits and the driver told me to sit on the floor of the bus or wait for the other one. At least I got to sit on the floor, the other people who also bought tickets from you didn't get any chance to get on the bus, and some of them bought them since February and planned their trips so this rude driver can destroy it for them. The driver did a lot of driving mistakes where he got all of us into danger and he got into a heated argument on the border.2026-08-07
  • reviews1★On our return trip from Pristina to Skopje, my daughter and I traveled with 25 more people on a bus suitable for 23 people (4 people more than the capacity), and 4 people were left on the ground. Anlso, priority was given to people who had a paper ticket, before those who had an online booking. It is unbelievable that you accept more reservations than the actual seats capacity!2026-08-08

  • reviews2★Journey from Skopje to Pristina was perfect. Everyone has it's own place and it went smooth. Problem occurred when we were traveling back to Skopje from Pristina. We had tickets bought online with qr code , everything was paid in advance but the driver was letting to the bus only passengers with physical paper ticket from station and there were too many passenger to time we had bought our tickets. So situation was that passenger with paper ticket can go to bus and others who bought ticket online need stay because it's no enough seats. Fortunately some passenger translated to the driver from English to Macedonian and driver let us travel but we sitter on plastic chair in the aisle between other passenger , and some passengers were standing the whole journey to Skopje . So we traveled like 30 people in bus for 20 people (approximately). Your company is joke , you need to learn to sell only that much ticket how many places are on the real bus . This is not driver's mistake, he only drives and needs to deal with that situations daily as we heard . Your company selling much more tickets than seats in bus so you need to improve and also give driver som app that he can scan qr code and let passengers to the bus with online ticket also not only with paper tickets and then he needs to deals with situation what to do with the people left. We are grateful about driver because in the end he allow us to travel but as I said it was very uncomfortable to sit in the aisle basically between others like animals. Next time I would buy only paper tickets at the station if you don't know how to work with technologies.2026-07-30

In Skopje We had to wait for another bus as the first one was full of passengers who bought their ticket at the desk and arrived after us: being very cold outside this was not pleasant. In Pristina we made sure to arrive early as chances to not find a seat are quite high. Drivers could be more road wise as they tend to fidget quite a lot on cell phones, papers or being distracted talking to passengers.2026-01-03
  • reviews3★-in Skopje you have to pay an extra ticket to access the bus platform -I asked twice in Pristina if all was good with my ticket, and they said yes. Then when I arrived they said the bus was full and they could not grant a seat for me, even though I had booked a seat for that bus2026-05-11
  • reviews3★Please update the booking process!!!! We booked online tickets for Sunday 14/06/2026 at 8:00, but when were at the station, they told us that there was NO BUS at 8:00 on Sundays, only at 10:10a.m. 2 hours spent in the neighborhood, nothing in the quarter... Please please please... Update your travel schedule!! No bus.. No tickets!!! Please!!!2026-06-27

  • reviews3★Bus was too hot and it was too packed2026-08-02
  • reviews3★We missed our first bus because the people at the bus station wouldn’t let us in because we had to pay the bau station tax and instead of letting the bus know they wouldn’t let us in and then when we got there 2 minutes later it was gone. and then we couldn’t get on the bus 45 minutes later so we had to buy a new ticket. The bus driver was very rude as well and talking to someone else on the bus and when we got our tickets he kept bitching. So I wouldn’t recommend montoya travel.2026-08-12

  • reviews5★I was backpack-travelling Europe when I was in Tirana, searching for a bus ticket to Skopje and further to Sofia. It was either Google Maps or Rome to Rio that led me to the Gjirafa website. After a few minutes it was clear that I could book Tirana to Skopje (with connecting in Pristina) at Gjirafa. The cherry on the pie was an eSIM card for 12 Balkan countries for a good price - 100% fit for my needs! After 15 minutes I had purchased two bus tickets plus the eSIM card. I was happy and could relaxedly continue with my sightseeing in Tirana.2025-08-24

5 riders report the bus had no air conditioning on hot days, with 1 hitting 40+ degrees and over 50 people packed inside for 2+ hours. This operator needs to fix cooling systems now, or expect more 1-star ratings on a line where 18 reviews already rate it that low.

  • reviews3★reported thisWe couldn't find the bus at the Tirana bus station, and it wasn't clear to us whether we got on the right bus in the end, but the driver took us and accepted our tickets. We traveled in a minibus, which was quite cramped, with little ventilation and no air conditioning. There were no seat belts at our seats either. The journey took 3 hours, and we stopped once at a gas station.2025-07-26
  • reviews1★We had two different bus rides (Tirana-Vlorë and Vlorë-Sarandë) and we were glad to reach our destinations alive. Horrible and dangerous old buses. According to Gjirafa, the ride to Sarandë would be 2 hours. In reality, it took us 5(!) hours to get there.2025-04-24

  • reviews3★I bought two tickets in a single booking with a self-transfer, but the transfer time was far too short. We couldn’t make the connection, so we had to pay for another bus ourselves. I also don’t understand why tickets are sold from Tirana Airport to Tirana Center when the next departure is from a different station, which requires traveling almost back toward the airport. This makes the connection very confusing and unrealistic. On the positive side, the eSIM worked perfectly without any issues. The support team also responded quickly and helped me change my email address. Thanks to them for the fast and friendly assistance!2026-07-18

Operator Classic Company · Route Shkup → Ohër · severity score 15

3 riders reported that paid e-tickets were rejected at boarding: one bus line stopped running 4 months before their trip, one was forced to pay cash instead, and one faced booking errors and had to pay 3€ extra at the station. On a line where 44 of 75 reviews rate it 4-5 stars, these ticket problems suggest our system does not reliably confirm whether a service still operates or block invalid bookings before passengers travel.

I tried once more to book 14th, but it didn't work, after confirming my booking, I was only asked to buy an eSim card, but nothinh happened, no confirmation for 14th! Please tell me quickly if there is a bus on Sunday or not. That was my bad experience. I never got an answer to my request, I had to leave Podgorica one day earlier and moreover I had to pay 3€ at the bus station, because they needed a printed copy of my ticket.2025-09-17

My knees were pressed against the seat in front of me the entire way, and after 30 minutes, it became extremely painful. That made a 3-hour ride feel incredibly long.2025-05-25

  • reviews1★The bus seemed as if it had not seen maintenance since the fall of the Soviet Union. There was no air-conditioning for majority of the trip, and the driver stopped at least 6 times to pick up random passengers. Overall, I would simply pick Flixbus next time.2025-09-26

  • reviews1★Dear Sir/Madam, I purchased an online ticket for the Gazmend Turist bus service from Ohrid to Skopje on 17 May 2026. Trip details are as follows: • Company: Gazmend Turist • Departure station: Ohrid Station • Arrival station: Skopje Station • Departure time: 18:00 • Arrival time: 21:00 • Passenger count: 1 • Total amount paid: 29.70 € Although I arrived at the designated departure location on time, I was informed that the bus was not departing from there. Due to incorrect or insufficient information regarding the departure point, I was unable to find the correct bus and therefore could not use my ticket. As this issue was caused by misinformation, I kindly request a full refund for the unused ticket. I would appreciate your prompt response regarding this matter. Thank you in advance. Best regards, Buse Yalçın2026-05-18

  • reviews1★Very unorganized, cause they sold more tickets than the seats.2025-06-17
  • reviews1★The trip from Vlore to Sarande was not good at all. First, the scheduled arrival was supposed to be 14h30, but we only arrived at 15h30, not because of the traffic, but because the driver decided to stop 1h only after our departure from Vlora at a cafe on our way, and also kept stopping several times on the way to pick-up and drop-off people. Because of this delay, I nearly could have missed a tour that I’ve booked in Sarande. Moreover, the bus in itself was not good with the smell of the engine smoke all the way. So definitely not a good trip unfortunately, and sorry for this feedback but it’s the truth.2025-06-26
  • reviews1★Really upset, I expect reimbursement. The information about the travel is totally incorrect : none of the many stops is displayed on the ticket. Including the other ones in Vlora that could have arranged us. The time of arrival is totally wrong (18h30 instead of 16h30). That made our decision to take this trip irrelevant, since we miss all buses in saranda. Please contact us to reimburse us2025-07-09
  • reviews1★I paid 33euros for 2 passengers online for a trip from Vlore station to Saranda which would have cost just 20 euros if we had paid at the bus station. First off, it took a while to find your representative at Vlore station. We took off at 2.30 but the bus was moved very slowly and practically picked /drop off passengers at almost every stop/city. Meanwhile on your website you states that the trip was a direct 2 hours trip to Sarande. To make matters worse, the vehicle developed a fault on our way and we waited for almost an hour for them to get it fixed. This is the worst bus service I’ve ever experienced. A trip that was supposed to take 2 hours took us over 5 hours. It’s bad enough that we paid almost double of what we should have paid had we not booked on your website.2025-07-14
  • reviews1★There was no connection between the service we booked in the app and what we got when we arrived at the bus station. We certainly took whichever bus was scheduled for the time slot we bought but it was a small 12-13 seat van, which stopped in every possible spot along the way to pickup/drop off passengers, drove insanely unsafely, speeding in curvy roads while raining and making what was initially sold as a 2 hour direct (inland/highway) trip into a 3.5 hours coastal nerve wrecking night ride. The worst bus ride ever.2025-12-31
  • reviews1★Very bad service2026-04-10
  • reviews1★The trip was very disappointing. At first, the driver was driving extremely slowly for a long time and was always on his phone, sometimes only around 30 km/h. Later, the complete opposite happened: he drove down the winding mountain roads far too fast and recklessly, which felt very unsafe and uncomfortable. On top of that, the journey took about one and a half hours longer than originally scheduled. Overall, it was not a pleasant experience at all. Next time, I will definitely choose a different bus company. I didnt felt Safe!!!2026-05-19
  • reviews1★The bus never arrived at the location given and no one was able to help us.2026-06-15
  • reviews1★I didn’t like the experience at all. The indications for the meet point were not clear and the contact number provided on the website didn’t help us at all. Also I think it’s important to provide a number to whom clients can write on Whatsapp, as many tourist only have internet. The bus didn’t have any places where to sit, so my friends and I stayed on our feet for most of the travel. I would never recommend this website.2026-06-27
  • reviews1★Be more specific about how many stops bus will going to have it’s said on the ticket it’s a direct bus from vlore to Sarande and it’s stopped like 5 times and the whole journey took like 6 hours and the bus was moving like a turtle very slow2026-07-15
  • reviews1★We had very bad experience. On the website we booked the bus says that the journey from Vlore to Saranda takes 3 hours and it says the journey is direct, the bus operator was Transbus. However,the bus took five and half hour to arrive, because the driver over loaded passengers, he stopped many places to pick up passengers, many people had to stand on the bus for the whole journey, it was a very hot day the bus had no air condition, everyone was suffering with the heat and stuffy bus. The bus is not same with over loading passsengers as it was difficult to go up the hill it went slowly like walking. Because it was so hot the driver had to open the bus door during the journey to let some fresh air comes in. The bus was old and dirty. l do not recommend this journey.2026-08-17
  • reviews1★The bus is NOT direct, he stops for random people and at main stops. The driver was not polite to me, travelling alone he watched me struggle to put the bags in the undercarriage then proceeded to shout in his language that it’s been put in wrong, I later watched him help multiple people with their luggage. He also snatched my personal bag off me to put in the under carriage and another passenger beckoned him to give it back as he understood my English when I said “I have medicine in that bag” DO BOT BOOK WITH TRANSBUS. Also the journey was 5 and a half hours from vlore to saranda.2026-08-18

  • reviews3★It took tooooo long, 5 hours from Saranda to Vlora and even the way back!! The minibus and the bus were too old and we prayed for our lives to reach to the destination safe and sound!!! The drivers were very helpful and kind but the whole vehicles should be changed.2026-08-15
  • reviews4★I am writing to express my extreme dissatisfaction with the experience we had on our journey from Vlora to Saranda with your company. Firstly, the driver was extremely aggressive towards us and attempted to overcharge us a significant amount for our bicycles. We had to negotiate for a long time just to get on the bus, and the staff did not assist us with loading or unloading the bikes, which we had to disassemble ourselves. Additionally, the trip was supposed to take about two hours, but it ended up taking over four hours with more than twenty stops along the way. The driver also smoked in front of us and drove in a very dangerous manner. Furthermore, the driver arbitrarily set the price, which was unacceptable. Given these issues, I am requesting an immediate refund for the service provided. I look forward to your prompt response. Sincerely,2025-08-07

  • reviews1★Good morning, despite the hot weather, the driver repeatedly turned off the air conditioning even after being asked several times to keep it on. When I pointed it out, he laughed together with another lady and spoke loudly with her for most of the journey. Thank you.2026-03-06
  • reviews1★There were no seats available when we arrived. The driver moved items left to reserve seats when we insisted. The same happened to friends travelling in the same bus. There were unpleasant arguments over seats. There were not enough seats for the number of passengers. The bus went with four passengers standing which is dangerous. I can no longer trust girafa to book tickets.2026-05-01

  • reviews1★Dear Sir or Madam, I tried to prepare well for my trip from Munich to Himare, but I learned otherwise at Tinara Airport: planning and preparation in the usual sense seems to be a waste of time and money here. It frustrated me greatly, and still frustrates me, that I still don't understand what and where the South North Terminal is. Likewise, I still don't understand why a bus company's journey from the airport to Himare doesn't start at the South North Terminal, as advertised (which apparently doesn't even exist), but rather at a different, very distant location, which I can only reach by using another bus company, which I found thanks to some kind people. I thought I had arrived half an hour early, right on time at 12:30, so I could take the bus to Himare at 1 p.m. (the journey from the airport to Himare was listed as taking four hours). However, it took another hour before we stopped at the designated rest area, where we were informed that the bus we had booked with Riviera Tours had already left. In hindsight, this made sense, but I was also perplexed and very surprised. We were also told that we would need to buy another ticket, as we would now be traveling with a different bus company. Unfortunately, we couldn't withdraw any cash from the ATMs at the airport, which had already confused and worried us. We ended up traveling with the other company. The journey took at least five and a half hours. During the trip, I kept wondering where I could get cash and how, or even if, this would affect our planned return trip on August 31st. It probably wouldn't work, because as the journey dragged on and on, I realized I had once again booked a return ticket in advance for nothing. We will never be able to make our flight back to Munich on August 31st at 12 pm if we take the bus from Himare at 5 am, since the journey back to the layover takes at least 5-6 hours, where the other bus company then takes us to the airport in about an hour. In total, I have paid over €64 for nothing for a bus journey that takes about 3 hours longer than expected and which we had based our flight booking on. The fact is, I now have to leave a day earlier and therefore have to pay for a night's accommodation in Himare for nothing, and I now have to find accommodation in Tirana so that I can make my flight on August 31st on time. All told, I now have approximately €150 in additional costs due to the missing information. I have not yet received a reply to the two emails I sent to gjirafa. Please explain to me what advantages this approach offers all parties involved, in case I haven't yet grasped the underlying rationale. Thank you for your understanding. Sylvia Daub2026-08-19
  • reviews2★The bus from Tirana to Himare was supposed to take 2 hours and 40 minutes, but instead it took 4 hours and 30 minutes. I understand that buses can’t always arrive exactly on time, but that is a massive difference and it ruined our plans for the evening. Also, the air conditioning was almost non-existent, which was a shame given that it was 32 degrees outside. It felt like I was boiling during those hours. I didn’t give a one-star rating only because I appreciated how easy it was to buy the bus tickets online, and in the end, I did reach my final destination safely.2025-08-04

Needless to say that this company, Diamant Travel doesn’t handle passengers as she found out but only PARCELS. After long time, she managed with the help of people from other bus line to get going with another company but from the other bus station which is about 20 minutes away. And instead of leaving at 02:45 she left after a scary morning around 04:30.2025-05-31

  • reviews1★reported thisArditi Tours was terrible. They oversold the seats og we were almost 30 passengers who had to switch buses 3 times, before we finally were on our way. We ended up on a old bus whith no air-conditioning, and the driver drove like an idiot to try and make up for the lost time, risking all our lives several times. When we got to the airport they dropped us off by the highway about 1,5 km away from the airport! Several passangers got angry and asked why they didn't drive all the way to the airport when the ticket we paid for says TO TIRANA AIRPORT, the driver god mad and started yelling to us to get us off the bus. One guy got into a physical altercation because he demanded the driver drop us of at the airport or somewhere safe and not on the heavy trafficked road, he had luggage and was carrying a small baby and didn't want to walk almost 2 km in 35 C what the baby and luggage. The driver pushed him of the bus and yelled at him. All in all a terrible experience. I have travelled all over Asia, East-Afrika and South-America, but never had a more shocking experience than this. Never met less service minded people as the operators at Arditi Tours. And I bet every single person on that same bus would agree.2026-08-08

  • reviews1★Hello! I had a negative experience. On December 11, 2025, I purchased a ticket from Tirana to Podgorica on your website for the December 21, 2025, departure time at 1:45 PM. In Podgorica, I was supposed to transfer to a bus to Ukraine (I had a bus ticket from Pogorica to Ukraine). On December 20, Diamant Travel called me and informed me that the bus was not available. They suggested I arrive on December 21 for the 10:15 AM bus. On December 20, I was in Saranda. To catch the 10:15 AM bus, I had to pay €120 for the transfer from Saranda to Tirana. Why are you selling tickets on your website for a bus that is not available?2025-12-22
  • reviews1★The worst Right before we were about to depart, they said, "The bus isn't running today," and "They'll send a smaller bus instead, but you have to pay an additional 10 euros." What an unbelievable response. The bus wasn't running due to their circumstances, but instead of refunding my money, they took even more money from me. The vehicle was a nine-seater minivan. It was extremely uncomfortable, and my seat was in the front row, next to the driver. My seat didn't even have a headrest to lean against. I couldn't stretch my legs out. What was really the worst was that the driver was holding and operating his smartphone the whole time. What if we got into an accident?2026-01-04

4 riders reported the bus has no air-conditioning, describing it as hot like a sauna in summer, with some forced to open doors or windows while driving for relief. On a line where 42 of 72 reviews rate it 4–5 stars, this specific failure costs us repeat bookings from travelers who will not return.

  • reviews1★reported thisIt was a disaster, the bus was old with many defect recliners, overcrowded so people had to stand, no airco, to toilet. The driver picked up local people on the way and dropped them off at a different location while this was supposed to be a nonstop journey of two hours. We arrived after 2:45 hours. I cancelled the return ticket and took a taxi back. Never again.2025-09-08
  • reviews2★reported thisPër të filluar, furgoni nuk kishte ajër të kondicionuar ose dritare dhe në gusht... brenda kishte një sauna, kështu që shoferi vendosi të hapte derën e furgonit dhe të ngiste ashtu... Gjithashtu, dukej sikur furgoni do të hiqte dorë nga udhëtimi në mes të autostradës, e di që është një udhëtim i shpejtë dhe i lirë, por ne jemi prapë njerëz dhe presim të paktën pak siguri, unë jam nga Amerika Latine dhe as atje nuk kemi këtë lloj udhëtimi... përvojë e tmerrshme.2025-08-12
  • reviews3★reported thisThe bus was overbooked and priority was given to locals. At least 5 passengers were left behind and 3 passengers had to sit on the floor of the bus for 2 hours! Including through an international border. The van was very old and didn’t have AC, the driver then drove with the door open. We were grateful for the fresh air but very dangerous. We got to our destination so 2 star but would never book with this company again!2025-07-07

  • reviews1★It’s definitely the worst experience I had in Europe in a bus. Similar to a bad one I had in Uganda, but in Uganda it left on time. Please, re-think about what you’re doing. I’m taking the chance to honestly tell you, you’re such a horrible company. So much to improve. There was the assistant of the driver smoking while the bus was on the road. I have asthma and was getting all that smoke and had to cover myself not to smell it. But of course this wasn’t the only bad thing that happened, just put yourself together.2025-09-13

  • reviews2★I prebooked my ticket well in advance (Amalfi Tour from Skopje to Pristina). Upon arrival at the bus there were no seats left so I had to sit the entire journey on a small blue plastic emergency chair. Four other people arrived later than me and had to stand in the middle of the bus. No seats nor seat belts for them. I would like to have a full refund of 8.50€ plus booking fee. Kind regards, Johannes Weiss2024-11-04

  • reviews3★The ride was recent. It was a little tight on the bus, as it was a mini bus. It was good that with it made a lot of stops that made us able to buy things along the way and take some bathrooms breaks. But the online scheadule for the time the ride would arrive in Pristina were off by 1 hour and 15 min, you really shoud updatr this as sometimes people are depending on the real arriving time.2024-10-22

Duhen te perditesohen te dhenat rreth linjave te ndryshme pasi qe disa mungojne e disa te tjera jane te pasakta. Une pata planifikuar te marr autobusin per ne Shkoder nga Prishtina. Website thoshte qe per te kapur autobusin e fundit per Shkoder, duhet ta merrja autobusin ne ora 16:40 per te arriitur ne Prizren ne 18:15, dhe pastaj ne 18:30 nga Prizreni per Shkoder. Kur arrita ne stacion te autobuseve ne Prishtine, shoferi i autobusit per Prizren me tha qe nuk arrijne asnjehere ne Prizren para ores 18:35. Domethene do ta kisha humbur komplet mundesine per te mberritur ne Shkoder ate nate po te isha bazuar vetem ne informatat ne Gjirafa. Gjate asaj kohe morra vesh qe kishte autobus qe shkonte ne Ulqin, me ndalese ne Shkoder dhe perfundova duke e marre ate opsion.2025-07-04

3 riders reported the bus was oversold and they could not sit down, despite buying tickets and arriving early; 1 said staff told him to stand or not travel. This line sold more seats than it has, and without a fix, we lose both money from refunds and trust from passengers who paid but did not travel.

This is UNACCEPTABLE. They can't provide service in those conditions. One girl had a panic attack from the heat. It's disrespectful to charge 15 euros per person per ride.

  • reviews1★Awful service. The website makes it look like modern coaches, possibly with toilets and at least decent air conditioning. Instead this was an old coach with terrible air conditioning. Not only that but there were a good 15 people standing the aisle for most of the journey. So dangerous and surely illegal. I didn't take the return journey and instead hired a taxi at great expense to avoid this horrendous bus. Never again.2025-07-08

The arrival time was delayed by over 1.5 hours because of his poor driving and the rest stop which was supposed to be 10 minutes but turned out to be 45. Terrible experience.

  • reviews1★Your driver was very loud, appeared to be impatient and rude. I don't speak albanian so I can't be certain. His conversations were loud and argumentative. He spent the entire journey, approximately 4 hours, on his phone while driving around hairpin bends on the side of a mountain. He was face timing, shouting on his phone, texting on his phone while driving. I am visiting from the UK and wondered if I was actually going to make it home! He's an incredibly ignorant man who took no care of his passengers2025-09-13
  • reviews1★Horrible experience!! I reached out to you via WhatsApp with no response. Your website declares guaranteed seat when I bought on your platform, yet the bus was way overbooked. I had to stand the entire 5 hour drive. There was probably 10-15 people standing. Some standing down in the back door stoop while the driver drove with the door open. Very unsafe, very uncomfortable and definitely not what I paid for. Me and 1 of my children had to stand for a long bus ride through the mountains. And then no response from you when I reached out!! Yeah, never will I use your platform again. I am currently in the process of filing a report with the Albanian travel authority regarding the unsafe conditions and will report you as well for the blatant false claims of having a guaranteed seat. I have plenty of pictures of this overbooked and over crowded bus. Safety of your customers obviously means nothing!2025-09-13

But the worst part is that the bus just wants functioning and they told us we had to wait till the next day to take a bus. We had obviously already paid but we’re not able to get in the bus. A group of us were all in the same bad situation with no other way to get to our destination. Neither Girafa or the bus agency gave any warning. They did not tell us in advance that there was a problem with the bus. We are going to demand a reimbursement.2026-06-03

On top of that, the driver was very rude to the passengers throughout the trip. It was such a disappointing experience that, even though I had already paid for my return ticket with them, I chose not to use it and traveled back with Riviera instead. Riviera was far more professional, comfortable, and reliable, and I highly recommend them to anyone traveling between Tirana and Himarë. I would not use Olgeno Travel again.2026-08-03

  • reviews2★The bus didn't leave on time. When it started after an hour, the driver had to fill up with gas and get some coffee. Then there were constant breaks; some passengers were dropped off directly at the hotel, some not. Instead of three hours, the journey took six hours. Pay ticket online is more expensive.2025-07-07
  • reviews2★The travel was supposed to be 3 h and 10 minutes, but ended up 5 hours. Bad seats, overfilled, so that more people say on the floor. Hardly no aircondition.2026-06-18
  • reviews2★I paid for a guaranteed seat ticket in advance, from Tirana to Himarë, got to the terminal 15 minutes early, and the bus was full. They made me sit on the floor, and continued to cram ppl in the whole way there. The bus which was supposed to be 2 1/2 hours total, was 5 1/2! Not direct like it says, as it stops for anyone who flags it down. Props to them for giving so many ppl a ride at least…2026-06-18
  • reviews2★please don‘t ask passengers to be early at South Parking… This is not a terminal!!! No waiting room, toiles, counter etc… One hour waiting in the bus, terrible heat, last 20 minutes only A C, with loud working motor of course. I had to drink more water, and asked for a toilet break 2 hours later, first driver information , was 5 minutes. Could have been waiting fifteen minutes but 30 was really hard! Zéro information about delay during the trip, to at least give your approximative arriving time 😟2026-06-21
  • reviews2★Driver left 35 after planned departure to fill two seats. Arrived 1.5 hours late to himare.2026-07-06
  • reviews2★Chaotic experience Bus broken toilet and aircon useless2026-07-07
  • reviews3★According to the scheduled arrival time the trip should have taken 3 hours and 10 minutes, but in reality it was 4 and a half hours. The timetable should be updated with realistic arrival times. Also, when going to Tirana, in Himare the bus stopped at a different location, not where it was stated on our ticket.2024-09-08
  • reviews3★Good that you have an overview in this platform of all the routes, however, bus lines can be late and there’s no info or whatsover on customer service line or telephone numbers on where to call to get more information about delays, cancellations and other topics2024-09-10
  • reviews3★bus took way longer than 3 hours like it states, you do this drive enough to know it takes longer than that so this should be updated as it’s misleading and people may have plans which would be missed due to how long it takes! also not guaranteed a seat which isn’t good on a long hot coach2025-06-18
  • reviews3★Overall it was good but many things could be improved like ac and planning more time for the journey since there’s construction and many stops along the way. Maybe add clearer indications at the bus station too.2025-08-08
  • reviews3★Bus was not good, drivers delayed the trip in over 2 hours. Hard to find the bus at an inexistent bus station2025-08-19
  • reviews3★The bus left 1h late and arrived at 4.30pm when it was meant to arrive at 1.40pm - 3h late!! The bus drive was fine but I missed the ongoing bus because we were so delayed.2025-08-28
  • reviews3★Nous sommes arrivés avec 2h de retard. Nous avons raté l'excursion que nous avions réservé.2025-10-14
  • reviews3★Bus delayed, driver could have been friendlier, bus seemed to have been overbooked as one passenger didn’t have a seat2026-07-30
  • reviews3★Mainly, the driver let Himarë bound passengers off outside the town instead of in town. This may have been because the bus was an hour behind schedule.2026-07-31
  • reviews3★Good2026-08-01
  • reviews4★The bus was comfortable and left on time. However, the ride took longer than expected because the driver stopped many times for unclear reasons. It would be nice if he informed us about the reasons , and also would be nice to shout out the name of the place where we stopped, so we would know when to get out.2024-09-04

  • reviews4★Booking was easy, showing the bus attendant the ticket was easy. However.. the bus area in Tirane is literally so gross; Trash is EVERYWHERE. The bus itself is old, not updated, and dirty. It said direct, which to me means no stops. We stopped to pick up numerous people along the way, which was efficient and quick, but not what was described. The ride itself wasn’t bad though. AC worked, seats reclined.2025-09-09

  • reviews4★Overall not a bad experience. Booking was easy. However it was a bit confusing trying to find which bus to get on when departing Tirana as the bus station was simply a massive car park with different companies and busses everywhere. Bus left a little late as well and the journey took longer than expected. I do believe this is something you expect when travelling to Albania though so all part of the fun travelling experience!2026-06-14

Je paie 15 euros une place pour passer le trajet debout, serrer pendant 4h alors qu'on me garantissait une place assise !!!! Lorsqu'on nous a pris les valises pour les mettre dans le coffre, le monsieur qui s'en occupais les a jeter comme si moi valises n'avais aucune valeur. Je déconseille cette société, a fuir!!!!!!!!2025-06-23
  • reviews4★reported thisEverything was great but .. your website said the journey would take 3 hours and 10 minutes. It actually took over 5 hours. Also .. the bus was overcrowded as far as Vlore. I bought a ticket in advance to guarantee a seat but that wasn’t working.2026-07-26
  • reviews1★My bus from Shkoder to Himare arrived 2 hours later than indicated and I was not dropped at the indicated drop off location either. My ticket clearly stated Himare bus station as the drop off location and the driver stopped outside a hostel which was a 20 minute walk from the bus station and therefore a 30 minute walk from where I was staying. A very rude and arrogant man then got on telling me and everyone else we need to get off and that we should’ve asked the travel company (ie: you) to be more specific about where we were going to be dropped and he was extremely aggressive about it. Eventually we got him and the actual driver to drop us 5 minutes further into the centre as we were nowhere near. However this was still not the designated drop off spot and we were all extremely unimpressed. I would have booked a different ticket had I known it was going to drop me nowhere near the centre/bus station.2025-07-17

  • reviews1★Bus had 4h delay. Olgeno Travels is the name. This is the worst company I have ever dealt with. You should probably stop working with them. I will never use your service again.2026-08-13
  • reviews2★Ride with Riviera tours from Tirana to Himare – absolutely horrific. It was 35-40 degrees inside the bus without the possiblity to open windows. It was close to panic mode I'd say, as we knew we'd be sitting in those tiny seats for 3-4 hours with almost no oxygen and sweat literally pouring down everyone's faces. Also, the driver was both rude and didn't have any pull to be of help – only to collect people's money as quickly as possible. At one point I also tried calling Giraja, but got a snappy, unhelpful response to "just go!" when asking about where the bus would actually leave from, as this was not exactly clear on the ticket or the internet. The return bus with Olgeno as the bus operator was way better. The bus was cooler, more spacious and the driver was helpful, albeit "Balkan intense". It was still not clear though where the bus would be picking us up in Himare as the ticket, internet searches and people at our destination all said different things. After a call directly to Olgeno, that was clarified by a helpful representative. To note: the return bus was delayed by 40 minutes or so. Overall experience with Gjirafa would've been better if they actually tried to help you when you call them, if they would greatly discount the ticket price when they know they have a bus that is dangerous to travel in (especially as a non-acclimatized tourist), and properly inform the passengers of how drop-off and pick-up works in Albania – this should not have to be discovered at the very last minute. Would not book with Gjirafa again, but go straight to the bus operators that are reputable or rent my own car.2025-08-19
  • reviews2★Aren't the buses too old for road traffic? Are they still safe? We traveled four times. On the first trip, there were problems with the seats. We were given tickets in Albanian. No one understood that the seats were assigned. No one explained it. It was chaos. Please translate the tickets into English or have someone explain it to the passengers. On the last trip, we arrived late at the airport. The bus driver picked up hitchhikers on the road and dropped them off where they wanted to go. That's not OK. Luckily, we made it to our return flight on time. This needs to be better organized.2025-09-16
  • reviews2★We traveled from Himara to Tirana. There was no signage for the bus stop anywhere in Himara. We arrived an hour later than expected. The destination bus station was on the outskirts of Tirana, so we had to take another bus to the city center. This could definitely be improved.2025-09-21

  • reviews4★The online booking process was quick and straightforward, which I really appreciated. However, I encountered several issues during the actual travel experience. When I presented my ticket to the drivers, it took quite a bit of explaining before they accepted it, which made things stressful. On one of my trips, I was even directed to the wrong bus for the second leg of the journey and ended up having to pay a second fare. Additionally, the departure times listed during booking didn’t match the actual schedules—for example, I booked a 7 PM bus, but the operator informed me that only a 3 PM bus was running that day (which I only found out after calling the tour operator just in case). Overall, while the platform is easy to use, better coordination and communication with local bus operators is definitely needed to ensure a smoother travel experience.2025-06-01

  • reviews1★My experience was very negative, as upon arriving at the terminal in Tirana, the driver of the Tirana - Vlore route had no idea about the purchase made online, there was no identification on the bus or any indication of the company. I had to ask several people and in the end, I was able to board the Tirana - Vlore bus, but the driver had many doubts about the validity of the purchase. The gjirafa travel website offered me the option to buy a return ticket to Tirana for 16:30, and I arrived at the Vlore bus station at 16:10, but the drivers of other buses told me that the last bus from Vlore to Tirana had left at 16:00 and that there were no more. Therefore, the information on the gjirafa site does not reflect reality. I had to return to Tirana by taxi, spending three times more than the cost of the bus tickets, as my flight was scheduled for that night from Tirana airport.2025-06-25

  • reviews1★You sold me a return ticket from Vlore to Tirana for a bus trip that doesn't exist - I ended up having to randomly book a hotel here because the buses that go back to Tirana stop running by 4 pm (or earlier) and you sold me a ticket for one that leaves at 4:30. I also ended up having to buy a toothbrush, toothpaste, a phone charger, etc., in addition to food - ended up spending like €40 I hadn't planned on beside the €7 for the ticket back. Will you people be reimbursing me for all this? I'm wearing the same clothing I did on the way over here because obviously I have nothing else to wear. I would not have bothered trying to visit this town if I knew it'd end up being a total fiasco like this, and even though the town is nice overall the experience was obviously a bad one. I will never buy bus tickets through you guys again and will be telling everyone about the ordeal I ended up enduring because of you.2026-02-10

I called the customer service offices to try to resolve the issue, but unfortunately no one was able to help me. I paid for both the ticket and the time change, so I would like an explanation as to why I was denied boarding and I request a refund for the amount I paid.2026-08-29

  • reviews3★The service from Gifada was great, easy and we took the bus no problem from Tiranë to Vlore- the bus itself was the problem. My 13 year old son had to sit in the front with a broken seat belt, mine was not working either. Cheap, easy to use but not the safest though that may be bus travel in Albania and not Gifada’s fault.2025-05-12
  • reviews3★The bus pick up/drop off location in Vlorë is missing. I have no idea where to meet my bus tomorrow. Also the transfer from the airport bus location to the Vlorë - north/south - bus location is impossible. No instruction or accommodation whatsoever - especially with luggage. I took a taxi and figured it out.2026-04-21

  • reviews3★Vlore to Tirana airport, bus terminated at a station NOWHERE near the airport ! Cost twice as much to reach proper destination.2026-08-30
  • reviews4★A ticket is not needed. They let anyone on the bus and this ticket does not guarantee a seat. If one bus is full you can go on the next one, so no, the system is not yet working for Albania. Until you assign seat numbers and staff understand that you bought your ticket online and you get a seat before others that do not have a ticket, i won't use this again.2025-05-08

  • reviews1★Good morning, On Friday my friends and I (attempted to) travel via your company and would like to bring to your attention several expensive errors on your website. The e-ticket you sent me (attached) contained this link to the coach departure location. This contradicts a different departure location given on the confirmation email, Garibaldi Square. We went to the former location, when in reality the coach left from Garibaldi Square. The return journey was no better. You sold me tickets for a 20:00 coach from Durres Plepat Station to Tirana that did not exist. I know this because my friends found the RikiTrans offices who apparently manage your coaches, and they told us the 20:00 coach runs only in the summer. Moreover, this seemed to be a frequent occurrence, because taxi drivers circled around Plepat Station knowing you frequently leave tourists stranded like this. We had to pay €35 for a taxi back to Tirana (plus the €6 for an alternative coach to Durres earlier that day). This is not just zero-star service, but non-existent service. I would like our €16.50 returned, for the coach there and back, for me and my two friends, plus your booking fee. Additionally, I would strongly, strongly advise you to correct the link on your e-tickets, and remove the non-existent 20:00 service from your website. It is highly unethical to claim there exists a 20:00 coach from Durres to Tirana, receive payment for it, then leave tourists stranded. Josh.2025-04-20

  • reviews1★What a bad experience I had when I needed urgent help. None of the buses going to Durrës accepted tickets bought through Gjirafa. I had to pay again to go there and back. When I called and messaged Gjirafa to complain on WhatsApp, not only did they not respond till a day later, but they DID NOT help or offer a solution. What a disappointment my experience has been! And now I’m afraid of what’s going to happen because I had already purchased a ticket an online ticket with Gjirafa to go to Kosovo and I don’t want to have to pay for my ticket again.2025-06-30
  • reviews1★No indication once or ever at the leaving point. No sign or bus stop indicated!! We had to pay for another ride since we couldn't find the transportation we booked online thru Gjirafa travel. So it was useless to use your platform. Also we order an eSIMcsrd by mistake which we couldn't use since our phones are not compatible and we couldn't get our money back! Where's the customer service here? I will definitely not recommend your platforme or services to anyone!2025-08-26
  • reviews1★Dear Gijrafa Travel, You sold me tickets for a trip that didn't happen. I bought a ticket from you for 7:00 PM, while the last bus from Tirana to Durres departed at 6:00 PM. As a result, I had no way to get back to Durres and was forced to take a taxi, which caused me a lot of stress and expense. I hope you will check and correct this error in your offer and, at the same time, refund me the money (€8.25) for the unrealized trip.

  • reviews2★The Durrës Plepat bus station is not near the city center, so we had to take a taxi to our hotel, which significantly increased our transportation costs (15 euros each way), even though there is a bus station in the city center. For the return trip, we departed from the city center station, but my online reservation wasn't accepted. Instead of paying 800 LEKE (8 euros) for a round trip for two using local transportation, with the online reservation (12 euros), the taxi fare (15 euros), and the return ticket price (4 euros), we spent 31 euros, almost four times as much. I am therefore very dissatisfied with my online reservation.2026-06-17

3 riders reported that their booked buses did not arrive or never existed, with 1 passenger also denied boarding 5 minutes before departure despite advance payment. Without fixes to bus availability and schedule reliability, Gjirafa loses customers to competitors and refunds money on this otherwise well-reviewed line.

  • reviews1★reported thisOur experience with Gjirafa was horrible. We booked a bus a day in advance with ‘guaranteed seats’ in the morning and arrived only 10 minutes early due to a delayed taxi and intense traffic, thinking that we would be fine. When arriving to the station we asked staff where our bus was and they said it was full and we couldn’t get on it. We managed to get to the ticket office where they also confirmed it was full and leaving. Still 5 minutes before scheduled time. We tried to contact via email and WhatsApp but didn’t have any luck. Had to book another bus costing more money to make up and there was certainly no refund for us. We unfortunately also booked transport back to sarande with Gjirafa when our bus back was 1 hour late. Came at 20:40 instead of 19:40. And we were even there at 19:10 as it recommends to get there 30mins prior. I understand that traffic and incidents occur that would force a bus to be delayed but one hour and no update or confirmation that it was coming was just horrendous. Glad we don’t have to use this platform again.2026-08-05
  • reviews1★The vehicle provided was a elderly minibus, which was severely overcrowded, resulting in several passengers having to stand throughout the journey. The seatbelts were non-functional, posing a safety concern. While air conditioning was available, it was leaking and operated inconsistently. The bus was scheduled to stop at the central bus station in Himarë before proceeding to Vlorë; however, this stop was omitted, requiring passengers to disembark outside the city. Tickets purchased online were priced 2 euros higher per person compared to those bought directly from the driver. Although we successfully traveled from Sarandë to Himarë, that was the only favorable aspect of the experience.2025-08-06

  • reviews1★We did 2 trips - bus stops marked on google maps in wrong places. Supplier we used for one trip (Transbus) was terrible - very hot, seats reclined into knees of the person behind. When we dropped off in Himare (all the people on the bus) it was a 15min walk to the town in the hot sun only to find the bus parked in town (seems ridiculous the entire bus had to walk to where the bus went anyways). We unfortunately will not book again via Gjirafa and have now rented a car instead of taking anymore busses.2026-06-17
  • reviews1★The trip from Saranda to Himare was nice ! I liked that there was no music in the bus.2026-06-21
  • reviews1★Really frustrating experience. We got off the ferry from Corfu, and went to the “departure location”, only to be told to scan a QR code for the real location of the bus… which was another 15 mins by taxi to get to. This made us miss the bus. If you have a “departure location” on the ticket, it would be god to flag if this is actually where the bus is leaving from?2026-07-21
  • reviews1★The bus station indicated on the ticket was completely different from the actual departure point. When we arrived at the station shown on our ticket, they told us we had to take a taxi to another location. When we finally got there, the bus wasn’t even there, so we had to wait about 1 hour and 30 minutes. We received no refund and had to pay the same amount again in cash. The staff were also very rude and unhelpful. It honestly felt like a scam. I strongly recommend paying directly on the spot and not booking online.2026-08-19

3 riders reported the bus was too full or they were not allowed to board; 1 said the evening bus was switched for a smaller vehicle, 1 said passengers were stuffed in with no aircon, and 1 was refused entry altogether. This line has 11 five-star reviews and 13 one-star reviews, so overbooking appears to be one problem among many on this route, not the main one.

  • reviews1★Dear Girafa Travel Team, I am writing to make a formal complaint about the transport service I booked through Girafa Travel today. My experience could not have been worse. I booked my ticket with “bus” operator Diamant Travel ,and every passenger was charged an additional €3 check-in fee, although nobody explained what this fee was for. We were then taken to an old van that was literally falling apart. It was filthy, had no air conditioning, the seats were torn, and the vehicle was clearly in terrible mechanical condition. One of the passengers had grease all over his hands while seated in the vehicle. I have photographs documenting its condition. Unsurprisingly, the van broke down. Then it broke down again. And then a third time. At the moment I am writing this email, I am stranded on the side of a road in the middle of nowhere. I have had no choice but to hire a private taxi for €270 to take me to Budva because I no longer feel safe continuing this journey. This trip has been a complete nightmare. I have lost an entire day of my holiday, spent hours stranded on the roadside, with no proper facilities, desperately needing a bathroom, wondering whether this unsafe vehicle would ever reach its destination. I am requesting: A full refund of my ticket. A refund of the €3 check-in fee. Reimbursement of the money I will pay for the taxi I hired a than I cancelled when he was 17 min to the spot and a minivan arrived to replace the broken one. I have photographs of the vehicle and evidence of what happened. I am also seriously considering taking legal action against all parties responsible for putting passengers in such an unsafe situation. I chose Girafa Travel because I believed it was a trustworthy company, and until now I had confidence in your services. I sincerely hope this incident is an isolated case, but I now expect you to take full responsibility and resolve this matter promptly. To get worse the eSIm card doesn’t work. Yesterday in Albania I downloaded but obviously didn’t work because I wasn’t in Montenegro. now I am in Montenegro and say that the card has expired! I am very unhappy!2026-08-06
  • reviews1★I wasn’t allowed to get on the bus - asking for a refund2026-08-09
  • reviews1★We tried to find an email to get some further information on this, but we booked a bus from Himare to Tirana airport. We had a self transfer from north and south terminal to central, except our bus was delayed by 2 hours. This resulted in us missing our connecting bus and none of the drivers offered us any help or advice, nor was there any information online. This resulted in us having to pay additionally to get to the airport and we missed our flight and had to pay an additional fee. We were very disappointed and stressed and don’t think we’d feel comfortable using you again as there was no compensation.2026-08-11
  • reviews2★The arrival hour mentioned on the website should take into account every stop potentially made by the driver. It's not normal to arrive at 3:30 pm when the initial arrival time on the website was 2:30 pm. When there is an accident or traffic I understand, but if the ride itself takes this much time then it should be mentioned before buying tickets just to give people a proper idea please, some of us had flights to catch2026-06-01

The operator does not accept e-tickets at boarding and requires passengers to print them at the station for €2 per person, plus €1 per piece of luggage. This policy is not clearly stated during booking, which causes conflict at the gate and extra costs that passengers do not expect.

  • reviews1★We took the 2:00 pm bus from Berat Station to Gjirokastër today (16th of August 2025) and it was by far the most dangerous journey we have ever experienced. The driver’s behaviour was reckless and alarming - he overtook vehicles on blind bends, used his mobile phone while driving, took his hands off the wheel on winding roads. He narrowly missed hitting several pedestrians and nearly collided with multiple other vehicles while beeping at them almost non stop. We were at the front of the bus so we witnessed all of this. When we expressed our concerns, he responded with physical aggression towards us, which was extremely frightening. We are lucky to be alive after his driving. I honestly cannot stress to you enough how unsafe he was. He should not have a license let alone be driving a bus full of people. Take him off the roads for your future passengers and their wellbeing and safety!2025-08-16
  • reviews1★We booked two seats from Tirana to Berat for the 10.20am bus. When we got to the bus station and found that there was no 10.20 bus. Instead there was a full 10am bus. The driver squashed me in the front and my poor husband sat in the middle of the aisle on a portable cheap plastic stool for two hours of the trip. He got a seat when someone got off the bus 10 minutes short of reaching Berat. Otherwise he was on a free standing plastic stool with no backrest while the bus travelled on the bumpy road. We thought that by booking our seat online we would have two bus seats in a bus that was not overcrowded and enjoy the trip side by side. This in no way happened.2025-09-16

  • reviews2★I've booked a bus the 1st May at 9h45 from dhermi to saranda i was at the bus station at 9iand the bus never came, try to join your company with whatsapp but i didn't received any answer so i'm wasting m'y Time and i'm upset2026-05-01
  • reviews2★The bus get out 45 min later, the driver was dangerous.2026-08-01
  • reviews2★The vehicle had no air conditioning or seatbelts; the driver was collecting cash from passengers because he needed to fill up with petrol, and subsequently stopped at least six times along the route to pick up and drop off passengers at random locations. An unpleasant and dangerous journey.2026-08-07
  • reviews3★Bus Depot terminal in Tirana..the private bus operators would not give any assistance as they all trying to get passengers to travel on their buses...'feigned not knowing where other buses were parked to disembark from'... tourism is the worse for this awful deceitful behaviour2025-06-11
  • reviews3★We booked a travel from Shkodër to Tirana and then from Tirana to Berat. The first bus arrived too late in Tirana and then it was just chaos. At Tirana bus station nobody knew anything and we had to take another bus to Berat. Fortunately the bus drivers communicated with each other so that we didn‘t have to pay the second bus, but we had a lot of dicussions until everything was ok.2025-07-17
  • reviews3★Tirana to Berat. There was no airco on the bus. Driver stopped his car to literally have a road fight with another Driver.2025-08-16
  • reviews3★there really is no way to tell where the bus will arrive when or if it will arrive at all which can be really stressful.2025-09-02
  • reviews3★Bus ride was fine. Driver was safe. But we made a reservation for 7:45am and told it was guaranteed seats. We arrived 7:15am at the bus station and told the 7:45am bus was full so we had to take the 8:30M bus. We were disappointed that guaranteed seating does not acutely mean that…2025-10-02
  • reviews4★sometimes we could have more information before and why we can't buy tickets online2025-07-27
  • reviews4★Bom serviço2025-08-05
  • reviews4★Using the website platform was really easy and it makes travelling in a foreign country so much easier knowing that transport can be booked in advance. It was a little tricky trying to find the actual bus we were to take as the South and North Station of Tirana must have had at least a hundred buses and maybe ten of them had 'Berat' signs on them. However, when we asked the local staff members at the entrance, they were able to point us in the general direction of the bus. It would be helpful if there was a way that GjirafaTravel could make it clear which bus we are taking to minimise stress and help create an easier "check in" experience. HOWEVER... we will be using GjirafaTravel for the remainder of our time in Albania!2025-08-14

  • reviews1★reported thisLoud music, dripping air conditioner and macho staff2024-09-04
  • reviews1★reported thisThe air conditioner was not working at all, making the entire trip a complete nightmare. Additionally, the driver did not announce the stops, so if you don't have internet access to track each stop he made, you could easily end up lost.2025-04-29
  • reviews1★reported thisAwful service. The website makes it look like modern coaches, possibly with toilets and at least decent air conditioning. Instead this was an old coach with terrible air conditioning. Not only that but there were a good 15 people standing the aisle for most of the journey. So dangerous and surely illegal. I didn't take the return journey and instead hired a taxi at great expense to avoid this horrendous bus. Never again.2025-07-08
  • reviews1★reported thisI strongly advise against traveling with Olgeno Travel. The bus was extremely old, and the air conditioning didn’t work, making the journey very uncomfortable. On top of that, the driver was very rude to the passengers throughout the trip. It was such a disappointing experience that, even though I had already paid for my return ticket with them, I chose not to use it and traveled back with Riviera instead. Riviera was far more professional, comfortable, and reliable, and I highly recommend them to anyone traveling between Tirana and Himarë. I would not use Olgeno Travel again.2026-08-03

  • reviews2★reported thisThe travel was supposed to be 3 h and 10 minutes, but ended up 5 hours. Bad seats, overfilled, so that more people say on the floor. Hardly no aircondition.2026-06-18
  • reviews2★reported thisplease don‘t ask passengers to be early at South Parking… This is not a terminal!!! No waiting room, toiles, counter etc… One hour waiting in the bus, terrible heat, last 20 minutes only A C, with loud working motor of course. I had to drink more water, and asked for a toilet break 2 hours later, first driver information , was 5 minutes. Could have been waiting fifteen minutes but 30 was really hard! Zéro information about delay during the trip, to at least give your approximative arriving time 😟2026-06-21

  • reviews5★reported thisThe staff was very friendly, unfortunately we arrived at our destination 3 hours late and the bus was uncomfortably hot (because of the seats made of leather) and the AC was not working2026-08-29
  • reviews1★Worst experience ever. I will sue the company. I had to travel sitting on the bus floor2024-09-01
  • reviews1★They didn’t explain me well where to go or what to do. Also they made me move from my seat to leave to someone else without explanation.2024-10-09
  • reviews1★It was a very Bad experience, since we all (8people) wanted for the bus for which we has already paid and no driver showed up. So I expect from you to transfer the money back to my account. I and all the other 7 people had to pay 2 private taxis to get to Himare!2025-05-02
  • reviews1★Horrible ride no ac it was like 35 degrees in the back complete catastrophe2025-05-08
  • reviews1★Never had anything like this before, first the driver tells me that it’s fool, although i made my booking days in advance, he made me sit in a stool against any safety policy and client confort, i travel for 5h grabbing anywhere i could to stay safe and moving to relieve my back pain. I don’t wish this to anybody2025-05-18
  • reviews1★Driver was driving dangerously, constantly texting and scanning QR codes whilst driving. He had several phone calls where he was shouting in Albanian. The arrival time was delayed by over 1.5 hours because of his poor driving and the rest stop which was supposed to be 10 minutes but turned out to be 45. Terrible experience. Rudest driver I have ever met. I booked the bus back to the airport but will pay extra for a taxi instead. I’m going to leave 1 star review online to advise other tourists not to use this terrible service2025-07-20
  • reviews1★got sick, couldn't refund2025-08-14
  • reviews1★We were on a bus with no air conditioning, about 33 degrees outside and almost 40 degrees inside. It was an ordeal, suffering through the five-hour journey. This is UNACCEPTABLE. They can't provide service in those conditions. One girl had a panic attack from the heat. It's disrespectful to charge 15 euros per person per ride. It's disgusting to me that they're offering something like that.2025-08-18
  • reviews1★2 Hours of delay2025-08-18
  • reviews1★Voyage dans le car debout 3h alors que j’ai pris en ligne le billet et c’était écrit « place assise garantie », on nous a pris pour des pigeons, des personnes sont montées alors qu’ils avaient pas de billet, pas de contrôle bref organisation médiocre2025-09-06
  • reviews1★Your driver was very loud, appeared to be impatient and rude. I don't speak albanian so I can't be certain. His conversations were loud and argumentative. He spent the entire journey, approximately 4 hours, on his phone while driving around hairpin bends on the side of a mountain. He was face timing, shouting on his phone, texting on his phone while driving. I am visiting from the UK and wondered if I was actually going to make it home! He's an incredibly ignorant man who took no care of his passengers2025-09-13
  • reviews1★Horrible experience!! I reached out to you via WhatsApp with no response. Your website declares guaranteed seat when I bought on your platform, yet the bus was way overbooked. I had to stand the entire 5 hour drive. There was probably 10-15 people standing. Some standing down in the back door stoop while the driver drove with the door open. Very unsafe, very uncomfortable and definitely not what I paid for. Me and 1 of my children had to stand for a long bus ride through the mountains. And then no response from you when I reached out!! Yeah, never will I use your platform again. I am currently in the process of filing a report with the Albanian travel authority regarding the unsafe conditions and will report you as well for the blatant false claims of having a guaranteed seat. I have plenty of pictures of this overbooked and over crowded bus. Safety of your customers obviously means nothing!2025-09-13
  • reviews1★My bus never showed up and when I called the company they said the line didn’t exist2025-10-18
  • reviews1★When we got to the bus terminal, the space wasn’t clean and. it well organized. But the worst part is that the bus just wants functioning and they told us we had to wait till the next day to take a bus. We had obviously already paid but we’re not able to get in the bus. A group of us were all in the same bad situation with no other way to get to our destination. Neither Girafa or the bus agency gave any warning. They did not tell us in advance that there was a problem with the bus. We are going to demand a reimbursement.2026-06-03
  • reviews1★Arrival time was meant to be 10:40 and due to multiple stops in the middle of the journey it ended up being 12:20 - 1.5 hours extra2026-06-05
  • reviews1★I arrived at the bus station 20 minutes early and the bus already left. I had to pay 40 euros for a taxi to get to Himare. Now I am worried about making the bus back to Tirana and then taking a different bus to Prizren.2026-06-10

  • reviews1★The bus never showed up and we weren’t ever notified by the booking service2026-07-06
  • reviews1★Suffice it to say we would never take a bus ride like that again, nor recommend it to anybody else. The ride was way longer and rougher than we expected, with a surly bus driver.2026-08-27
  • reviews2★It says on the website and ticket that the trip Tirana-Himara is 3 hours, but it took 5 hours both ways.2025-06-02
  • reviews2★Die Fahrt von Tirana nach Himara sollte eigentlich 3 Stunden dauern, tatsächlich dauerte sie 5 Stunden. Der Bus war überfüllt, einige mitreisende mussten die Fahrt über stehen.2025-06-13
  • reviews2★The driver was making a lot of stops so that means that is not a direct bus and instead of arriving and 6:40 we arrived 2 hours late, also the wanted me to take a sit in the part of the stairs of the bus when I obviously paid a sit I will never recommend this because in the website you don’t specify2025-07-05
  • reviews2★The bus didn't leave on time. When it started after an hour, the driver had to fill up with gas and get some coffee. Then there were constant breaks; some passengers were dropped off directly at the hotel, some not. Instead of three hours, the journey took six hours. Pay ticket online is more expensive.2025-07-07
  • reviews2★I paid for a guaranteed seat ticket in advance, from Tirana to Himarë, got to the terminal 15 minutes early, and the bus was full. They made me sit on the floor, and continued to cram ppl in the whole way there. The bus which was supposed to be 2 1/2 hours total, was 5 1/2! Not direct like it says, as it stops for anyone who flags it down. Props to them for giving so many ppl a ride at least…2026-06-18
  • reviews2★Driver left 35 after planned departure to fill two seats. Arrived 1.5 hours late to himare.2026-07-06
  • reviews3★According to the scheduled arrival time the trip should have taken 3 hours and 10 minutes, but in reality it was 4 and a half hours. The timetable should be updated with realistic arrival times. Also, when going to Tirana, in Himare the bus stopped at a different location, not where it was stated on our ticket.2024-09-08
  • reviews3★Good that you have an overview in this platform of all the routes, however, bus lines can be late and there’s no info or whatsover on customer service line or telephone numbers on where to call to get more information about delays, cancellations and other topics2024-09-10
  • reviews3★bus took way longer than 3 hours like it states, you do this drive enough to know it takes longer than that so this should be updated as it’s misleading and people may have plans which would be missed due to how long it takes! also not guaranteed a seat which isn’t good on a long hot coach2025-06-18
  • reviews3★Overall it was good but many things could be improved like ac and planning more time for the journey since there’s construction and many stops along the way. Maybe add clearer indications at the bus station too.2025-08-08
  • reviews3★Bus was not good, drivers delayed the trip in over 2 hours. Hard to find the bus at an inexistent bus station2025-08-19
  • reviews3★The bus left 1h late and arrived at 4.30pm when it was meant to arrive at 1.40pm - 3h late!! The bus drive was fine but I missed the ongoing bus because we were so delayed.2025-08-28
  • reviews3★Nous sommes arrivés avec 2h de retard. Nous avons raté l'excursion que nous avions réservé.2025-10-14
  • reviews3★The coach did not have air-conditioning and did not stop at the bus station as expected so we missed our stop.2026-07-06
  • reviews3★Bus delayed, driver could have been friendlier, bus seemed to have been overbooked as one passenger didn’t have a seat2026-07-30
  • reviews3★Mainly, the driver let Himarë bound passengers off outside the town instead of in town. This may have been because the bus was an hour behind schedule.2026-07-31
  • reviews3★Good2026-08-01
  • reviews4★The bus was comfortable and left on time. However, the ride took longer than expected because the driver stopped many times for unclear reasons. It would be nice if he informed us about the reasons , and also would be nice to shout out the name of the place where we stopped, so we would know when to get out.2024-09-04

  • reviews4★Booking was easy, showing the bus attendant the ticket was easy. However.. the bus area in Tirane is literally so gross; Trash is EVERYWHERE. The bus itself is old, not updated, and dirty. It said direct, which to me means no stops. We stopped to pick up numerous people along the way, which was efficient and quick, but not what was described. The ride itself wasn’t bad though. AC worked, seats reclined.2025-09-09

  • reviews4★Overall not a bad experience. Booking was easy. However it was a bit confusing trying to find which bus to get on when departing Tirana as the bus station was simply a massive car park with different companies and busses everywhere. Bus left a little late as well and the journey took longer than expected. I do believe this is something you expect when travelling to Albania though so all part of the fun travelling experience!2026-06-14

  • reviews1★reported thisMy experience was very negative, as upon arriving at the terminal in Tirana, the driver of the Tirana - Vlore route had no idea about the purchase made online, there was no identification on the bus or any indication of the company. I had to ask several people and in the end, I was able to board the Tirana - Vlore bus, but the driver had many doubts about the validity of the purchase. The gjirafa travel website offered me the option to buy a return ticket to Tirana for 16:30, and I arrived at the Vlore bus station at 16:10, but the drivers of other buses told me that the last bus from Vlore to Tirana had left at 16:00 and that there were no more. Therefore, the information on the gjirafa site does not reflect reality. I had to return to Tirana by taxi, spending three times more than the cost of the bus tickets, as my flight was scheduled for that night from Tirana airport.2025-06-25
  • reviews1★reported thisI paid for a ticket and also paid an additional fee to change the departure time. However, I was not allowed to board because, according to the staff, my ticket was not valid. I called the customer service offices to try to resolve the issue, but unfortunately no one was able to help me. I paid for both the ticket and the time change, so I would like an explanation as to why I was denied boarding and I request a refund for the amount I paid.2026-08-29

  • reviews1★Booked a ticket but couldn't find and get on the bus2025-11-08
  • reviews1★You sold me a return ticket from Vlore to Tirana for a bus trip that doesn't exist - I ended up having to randomly book a hotel here because the buses that go back to Tirana stop running by 4 pm (or earlier) and you sold me a ticket for one that leaves at 4:30. I also ended up having to buy a toothbrush, toothpaste, a phone charger, etc., in addition to food - ended up spending like €40 I hadn't planned on beside the €7 for the ticket back. Will you people be reimbursing me for all this? I'm wearing the same clothing I did on the way over here because obviously I have nothing else to wear. I would not have bothered trying to visit this town if I knew it'd end up being a total fiasco like this, and even though the town is nice overall the experience was obviously a bad one. I will never buy bus tickets through you guys again and will be telling everyone about the ordeal I ended up enduring because of you.2026-02-10
  • reviews1★İ would not recommend this transport service to anyone. There was no air conditioning, the seats were very cramped, there were too many passengers, and the bus stopped at every station. The drivers did not speak English. It was the worst travel experience I have ever had.2026-06-25

  • reviews3★The service from Gifada was great, easy and we took the bus no problem from Tiranë to Vlore- the bus itself was the problem. My 13 year old son had to sit in the front with a broken seat belt, mine was not working either. Cheap, easy to use but not the safest though that may be bus travel in Albania and not Gifada’s fault.2025-05-12
  • reviews3★The bus pick up/drop off location in Vlorë is missing. I have no idea where to meet my bus tomorrow. Also the transfer from the airport bus location to the Vlorë - north/south - bus location is impossible. No instruction or accommodation whatsoever - especially with luggage. I took a taxi and figured it out.2026-04-21

  • reviews3★Vlore to Tirana airport, bus terminated at a station NOWHERE near the airport ! Cost twice as much to reach proper destination.2026-08-30
  • reviews4★A ticket is not needed. They let anyone on the bus and this ticket does not guarantee a seat. If one bus is full you can go on the next one, so no, the system is not yet working for Albania. Until you assign seat numbers and staff understand that you bought your ticket online and you get a seat before others that do not have a ticket, i won't use this again.2025-05-08

2 riders could not board with valid e-tickets because the driver did not read them correctly or did not accept them, and 1 rider bought a second ticket by mistake after a 40-minute delay. Without clear ticket rules and driver training, we lose money when riders buy extra tickets and face angry customers on a line where 18 of 24 reviews rate us 4-5 stars.

  • reviews2★reported thisI got in a fight with the driver over the ticket email. It was in English and the driver of the bus did not believe me that the ticket was valid for the day I had purchased it for. He was pointing at the date purchased section mistaking it for the date of travel. I suggest having a dual language ticket so the driver doesn’t get confused and try and extract more money from me then was needed. The bus was delayed in leaving by 40 minutes. I thought I’d missed my initial bus, so I bought another ticket only to find I didn’t need to use it. The bus station at Tirana had no Toilet facilities or shade and finding my bus was almost impossible no one had any idea what was going on or if the ticket I purchased was valid on that service.2025-09-09

  • reviews1★Worst trip ever. The mini van was old and with a broken wheel, the driver stopped in the middle of the road to change it. Also, they have no air conditioning, no windows, no ventilation, and the van was full of people. They oversell tickets and then people need to stand or use a plastic chair in the middle of the van. I’ve never seen something like this before. The bus drivers are unrespectful, they scream to you the whole time.2025-09-06

  • reviews4★reported thisThe trip was very smooth and the van was very comfortable. The website is also very intuitive and I made the purchase in just a few minutes. My only problem was that I almost couldn't get on. The van was from another company and the driver said that the company I bought from never contacted him to say that they had sold me a spot. So he didn't even know if there would be any space left, and if there wasn't I wouldn't be able to get on. But it turned out that there were 3 empty seats and he let me go. But if it had been full I would have been left behind due to poor communication.2025-01-08
  • reviews2★Todo hay que reconocerlo, si nos centramos en que el fin justifica los medios... Llegamos a la hora planeada, por lo que la puntualidad no es el problema aquí. La aventura empieza en un autobús al borde de la jubilación, en el cual su conductor te solicita dos euros extra por maleta o mochila que quieras llevar en el maletero. Hasta aquí vale. Posteriormente procedes a subir a un autobús, que como ya había mencionado antes, le debería de quedar poco recorrido... Y ya lo mejor te lo encuentras cuando ves que absolutamente nadie cumple ninguna norma básica de conducción... Desde adelantamientos imposibles hasta recorridos sin fin por el arcén. En ocasiones es divertido, en otras en cambio piensas que vas a morir. Acercándonos al final de este glorioso recorrido, el conductor pregunta que si alguien quiere bajar en el aeropuerto, que por el módico precio de 5 euros te acerca hasta una carretera cerca el aeropuerto. El viaje terminó con última parada en el centro de Tirana ( algo beneficioso para todo el mundo) y no en la estación sur de autobuses (lo que es la east gate)... Que en principio es a dónde iba pero también sin ningún tipo de lógica... En conclusión, la puntuación se debe a nuestra percepción de cómo deben funcionar los servicios de transporte, pero las risas no faltaron.2024-09-28

  • reviews1★reported thisGot to the bus stop half an hour early as asked but sadly the traffic was really bad meaning that we missed our bus and had to pay for another cutting our time down for the day out. We were hoping for an easier experience on the return bus however the driver was quite rude and very reluctant to let us onto the bus with our pre booked ticket. It took around 20 minutes of little communication to sort when he finally took a picture of the booking but was not very helpful and we were worried we were going to be left stranded with it being the last bus back of the day. My recommendation would be to not buy tickets in advance online and pay as you get on to avoid any disappointment.2026-08-19

The driver just accepted all these people on tge bus on tge way back and they were standing all the way in tge crammed space, making this a dangerous journey for all of us.

You needed to validate your ticket with them in their office and get another ticket to board. No one knew this and the bus conductor was slightly annoyed by it. Our tickets and emails don’t mention. Would be good to include for future travellers2025-07-01
  • reviews4★The bus was really clean and nice however it was very difficult to know where it departed from. It just said “Sarrande station”, without a street address. At the site there was only a tiny crumpled paper sign that we easily could have missed.

  • reviews1★I am writing to formally lodge a complaint regarding a transfer service I recently used with your company, traveling from Fier to Tirana. The experience was, without exaggeration, one of the most unpleasant journeys I have ever endured, and I believe it falls far below any acceptable standard of passenger transport. I would like to bring the following serious issues to your attention: 1. No Air Conditioning The minivan used for the transfer had no functioning air conditioning whatsoever. Given the extreme heat conditions during the journey, the temperature inside the vehicle became unbearable. Passengers were subjected to intense heat for the entire duration of the trip, which poses not only a serious comfort issue but also a genuine health and safety concern. 2. Extremely Poor Vehicle Condition The interior of the minivan was in a deplorable state of cleanliness. The seats were visibly and heavily soiled, making it deeply unpleasant to sit in. The overall condition of the vehicle was entirely unacceptable for a paid passenger transport service. 3. Driver Smoking Inside the Vehicle Most disturbingly, the driver was smoking cigarettes inside the closed minivan throughout the journey, with no window open to allow ventilation. This is not only extremely disrespectful to passengers but is also a serious health hazard — particularly for those with respiratory conditions — and likely a violation of public transport regulations. The combination of these three issues made the journey genuinely uncomfortable and unacceptable. I paid for a transport service and received conditions that no paying customer should ever be subjected to. In light of the above, I am formally requesting a full or partial refund for the amount paid for this transfer. I expect your company to take this complaint seriously and respond with a concrete resolution. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you require any further details regarding this journey. I look forward to your prompt response. Sincerely, Gabriel2026-06-12

  • reviews1★We booked on line, when we arrived at the station there was a random assortment of old buses with no staff in attendance to assist which bus to get on. One driver indicated that his bus was going to Tirana, we showed him our tickets and he indicated get on board. The bus was appropriately a 20 seater, old, dirty and the seat was so close I had sit the whole way with my knees in the aisle. The bus traveled at a steady 70 kmh and we had no air conditioning for the next 2.5 hours ( the air-conditioning kicked into life twice for about 5 minutes each time) in 36 degrees heat. An experience I would not like to repeat.2026-08-02

  • reviews1★Absolutely terrible experience. The bus was old, dirty and clearly not properly maintained. The worst part was that there was no air conditioning at all, despite the extremely hot weather. The journey was uncomfortable from start to finish, with unbearable heat and poor conditions inside the bus. On top of that, the information about where and how to catch the bus was extremely unclear and confusing. For tourists, the whole experience felt completely outdated and disorganized. It honestly felt like travelling in the Stone Age when it comes to tourist services. Albania really needs to improve its public transport system and make it much more tourist-friendly. I would definitely not recommend this bus service.2026-08-21

I regret buying it. The second trip did not happen. I tried booking bus fare for today back to my city and the system would not confirm. Now I have en email saying I didn't complete the process when it was your system. I was lucky. I went to bus terminal in Tirane and found a bus so I could go home. I better not see any more trips than the one.2025-07-10
  • reviews2★Firstly the drivers knew nothing in English. Then we drove like 2 hours 30 minutes, but they dropped us off at the middle of nowhere. Then if we wanted to really get to the airport, like we booked, we had to pay plus 4 euros to another bus take us to our destination which was another 1 hour. I don’t recommend2025-08-31

  • reviews3★The bus Vlore to Tirane Ok it arrived on time, though it left 30 minutes after my ticket time of 9 AM- seats barely space for my knees; Returning tirane-vlore the bus seats were cramped and I had to sit sideways and the bus was quite bumpy-rough ride. I was really angry that the vlore dropoff was 150 meters north of Haso Hiper market- not anywhere close to the Vlore bus station. Lucky it stopped raining and I had no luggage. I walked 1.5 KM to a buss stop on the main boulevard. Upsetting they drop in the middle of 10 taxis...no local bus service that I know of2026-01-07
  • reviews3★The actual bus service is much different than what it seems on your website (at least for the Albania destinations). The buses are the smaller ones run by private individuals and not the larger buses you would expect. Plus there are no terminals just random stops2026-05-03
  • reviews3★The bus drivers was not so happy for a prepaid ticket from Gjirafa - they want cash. But they accepted it with som discontent. Many of the buses have no AC and no windows to open (because they are built for AC). This is probably feedback to the bus companies, so please bring the message forward. As a tourist we would gladly pay twice or even triple and more for bus tickets with better busses that have functioning AC.2026-07-06

  • reviews5★Good experience, especially the ability to reserve and to pay for tickets by credit card. The service fee is reasonable (10%) for that piece of mind. However, for higher frequency routes, budget travellers are better off just showing up at the station and taking the next available bus - it’s slight cheaper to pay cash directly to the bus driver.2026-08-30

We had to stand in the middle of bus, around 14 of ys had to stand. The bus was overcrowded and very unsafe. It was so crowded that the door to bus wasn’t fully closed. Horrible experience.

Some people couldn’t even get on in Himara because there was no space left. It was extremely hot and felt very unsafe with so many people standing.

Riders paid for tickets online but faced unexpected charges at the station: 2€ per person for bus station access, 1€ for luggage (cash only), and 5€ extra to leave early near the airport. We lose trust and sales if passengers discover hidden fees after purchase instead of seeing all costs upfront.

  • reviews1★reported thisBesides the fact that the ticket is advertised without a transaction fee, which you can not go around by choosing a different payment method (meaning it should be just included in the price right away). Once arrived to the airport I was asked to pay additional 2€ for “check in” to enter the bus station and another 1€ for the cabin suit-case, the second only to be paid in cash. What’s the logic here? If I have a ticket, but can’t access the bus station, how am I to use the ticket?2026-08-05
  • reviews3★reported thisWe bought 9 tickets online but we had to pay 2 euro per person at bus station, bus driver had problem with counting to 9 when I gave him our tickets and he asked „where are the rest of tickets”, during the journey I asked „Is there possibility to leave the bus earlier, near the airport?” The employee said yes. Unfortunately when we were close the airport, he came to us and said that we have to pay extra 5 euro per person if we want to leave earlier, so we went to Podgorica and came back to the airport by taxi what was cheaper than pay him 5 euro per person.2026-06-16

  • reviews1★reported thisI was traveling from the Theth. I showed driver the ticket from Gjirafa but he told me he does not know the company and asked me to pay him new ticket for bringing me to Schoder. I did so and before the departure someone from Gjirafa called me and said that the bus I booked with them is coming for me . I asked driver money back and h showed me Google translate text :” Do you wanna make love with me?” Eventually he gave me back the money and I get out of this bus. I was waiting there while and then another man came and told me that this very same bus is actually Gjirafa and he had to explain it also to the driver, so I got back in. I do not know if the driver really did not know for which company he is working or he was just trying to make extra money but it was terrible experience .2024-09-06

  • reviews1★We booked a bus leaving Himare for Saranda at 11am. No bus arrived until 12:10am. There was no contact by Gjirafa or by the Olgeno bus operator so we had no idea if or when the bus might turn up. By the time it finally arrived the bus was totally overcrowded and it was difficult to find luggage space as it was a small bus. Many passengers were standing and the trip was hot and uncomfortable. It was the worst travel experience we have had since stating our travelling in early April.2025-05-21

To get to the new departure point would have been 40minutes walk outside Himara. No taxi available. Olgeno bus company offert no refund, no alternative busride. 30ppl were left behind in Himara center with pre-paid tickets. This my 3rd busride in Albania & everytime it was a desaster.

Then, instead of providing a proper bus, they provided a minibus without AC. The minibus broke down midway, and because of that, we arrived 5 hours late. Overall, it was a terrible experience.

  • reviews1★The online platform was simple and easy. But at Tirana bus terminal, we arrived 2 hours earlier, went in the Albanian bus agency stall, showed the man our online tickets and he was kind, told us to go enjoy the mall and to leave our luggage there. 20 minutes before our journey, we returned, it was busier, we waited on the benches outside. A lady came asking if we were going to Montenegro and I confirmed. The first surprise, there wasn't a bus but a small van. Worse, there was no space for us. When I went in the satll again to ask what happened, the woman that was in there was very rude. Said we didn't let them know we were there. I showed her our tickets, showed her our names that were noted down by the man earlier on a piece of paper in front of her, told her we arrived early for this. She then proceeded to very rudely tell me to sit down. They began to discuss amongst themselves. I could see they were also very rude to another man who went there to buy tickets. In the end, they had to call for a private car to take us to Kotor, Montenegro. Also, the car was shaking in a weird way (I believe it was the alignment of the wheels on the back...), it had no seat belt. And also, we had to pay extra for the bags to go on the boot. Ridiculous. Our tickets had already being charged with fees, what were those then? Service? haha. I feel the joke was on us. Very bad experience overal.2026-06-01

  • reviews1★The worst experience I have had in a long time. The bus took hours longer, super poorly organized. The travel office at the bus station in Tirana had the most obnoxious and rude staff that threatened not to let us on the bus simply because we asked about why we had to pay an extra fee "for the check in" in cash (and wanted to know where this was in writing). would never book again and will definitely inform everyone I know never to travel with this company. I would seriously want to demand a refund for this absurdly bad service.2026-08-26
  • reviews2★Cobran por pequeño moral, no tiene parada en estación de buses2026-05-20
  • reviews3★I did book bus from Kotor to Tirana and also return travel.TBH Tirana to Kotor travel was uneventful,but return from Kotor to Tirana the bus station provided in the ticket is not the right place,and we came to know about it only when we reached the station mentioned as meeting point in the ticket.When we asked about this to the bus station employees ,they didn't had a clue about which is the actual best stop,and they suggested random places which is very difficult to get in when you have your luggage with you.We then tried to contact the customer service for exact location ,and they provided us with a location that is a 12 min walk from the place mentioned in the ticket.The driver of the bus then messaged us the bus will be late by 1 hour 30 mins.The most horrible thing happened when they reached tirana they did not go to original stop mentioned in the ticket but stopped 8.8 kms from the bus station TEG station and left us in road at 2am early morning , we managed to get a taxi had to spend another €20 to reach our stay which was only a 50 yards walk from the bus station if they had stopped at the station.Also these guys are collecting extra money on top of the bus fees as terminal fees ,then luggage fees .

3 riders reported no air conditioning on buses in summer heat; one experienced 41°C with 20-25 people packed inside. This line carries heavy summer traffic on a popular route, so broken cooling systems turn routine trips into health risks we must fix.

  • reviews2★reported thisCheap and easy to find but a nightmare when traveling in summertime. 41°C outside with no air conditioning on a full 20-25 people bus2025-08-12
  • reviews2★reported thisThe vehicle had no air conditioning or seatbelts; the driver was collecting cash from passengers because he needed to fill up with petrol, and subsequently stopped at least six times along the route to pick up and drop off passengers at random locations. An unpleasant and dangerous journey.2026-08-07
  • reviews3★reported thisTirana to Berat. There was no airco on the bus. Driver stopped his car to literally have a road fight with another Driver.2025-08-16
  • reviews1★bus was not running !!!2025-08-05
  • reviews1★We took the 2:00 pm bus from Berat Station to Gjirokastër today (16th of August 2025) and it was by far the most dangerous journey we have ever experienced. The driver’s behaviour was reckless and alarming - he overtook vehicles on blind bends, used his mobile phone while driving, took his hands off the wheel on winding roads. He narrowly missed hitting several pedestrians and nearly collided with multiple other vehicles while beeping at them almost non stop. We were at the front of the bus so we witnessed all of this. When we expressed our concerns, he responded with physical aggression towards us, which was extremely frightening. We are lucky to be alive after his driving. I honestly cannot stress to you enough how unsafe he was. He should not have a license let alone be driving a bus full of people. Take him off the roads for your future passengers and their wellbeing and safety!2025-08-16
  • reviews1★Muy mala, fuimos donde indicaba que estaría el transporte a Berat desde la estación de Norte y Sur de Tirana. Después de preguntar por el parking dimos con un minibus que partiría hacia allí. Eran las 10:20. El conductor desconocía la compañía que ponía en nuestro billete. Nos indicaron que el siguiente. Cuando vino el siguiente nos dijeron que era el que se había ido. Solución vuelta a pagar. Parece que no ven con buenos ojos la forma de reservar vis web. Si trave.gjirafa es una empresa sería espero que sea reembolsado el importe de los billetes que fueron imposibles de canjear, usar.2025-09-11
  • reviews1★We booked two seats from Tirana to Berat for the 10.20am bus. When we got to the bus station and found that there was no 10.20 bus. Instead there was a full 10am bus. The driver squashed me in the front and my poor husband sat in the middle of the aisle on a portable cheap plastic stool for two hours of the trip. He got a seat when someone got off the bus 10 minutes short of reaching Berat. Otherwise he was on a free standing plastic stool with no backrest while the bus travelled on the bumpy road. We thought that by booking our seat online we would have two bus seats in a bus that was not overcrowded and enjoy the trip side by side. This in no way happened.2025-09-16

  • reviews3★Bus Depot terminal in Tirana..the private bus operators would not give any assistance as they all trying to get passengers to travel on their buses...'feigned not knowing where other buses were parked to disembark from'... tourism is the worse for this awful deceitful behaviour2025-06-11
  • reviews3★We booked a travel from Shkodër to Tirana and then from Tirana to Berat. The first bus arrived too late in Tirana and then it was just chaos. At Tirana bus station nobody knew anything and we had to take another bus to Berat. Fortunately the bus drivers communicated with each other so that we didn‘t have to pay the second bus, but we had a lot of dicussions until everything was ok.2025-07-17
  • reviews3★there really is no way to tell where the bus will arrive when or if it will arrive at all which can be really stressful.2025-09-02
  • reviews3★Bus ride was fine. Driver was safe. But we made a reservation for 7:45am and told it was guaranteed seats. We arrived 7:15am at the bus station and told the 7:45am bus was full so we had to take the 8:30M bus. We were disappointed that guaranteed seating does not acutely mean that…2025-10-02
  • reviews4★sometimes we could have more information before and why we can't buy tickets online2025-07-27
  • reviews4★Bom serviço2025-08-05
  • reviews4★Using the website platform was really easy and it makes travelling in a foreign country so much easier knowing that transport can be booked in advance. It was a little tricky trying to find the actual bus we were to take as the South and North Station of Tirana must have had at least a hundred buses and maybe ten of them had 'Berat' signs on them. However, when we asked the local staff members at the entrance, they were able to point us in the general direction of the bus. It would be helpful if there was a way that GjirafaTravel could make it clear which bus we are taking to minimise stress and help create an easier "check in" experience. HOWEVER... we will be using GjirafaTravel for the remainder of our time in Albania!2025-08-14

3 riders reported no air conditioning on this line; one called it unbearable, one said seats were broken and cramped with too many passengers, and one gave 5 stars anyway. Without working AC on a route between hot cities, we lose customers to taxis and damage trust on a line where 17 of 33 reviews are 1–2 stars.

  • reviews1★Bus was not there. They said it left at 16:00.2025-04-20
  • reviews1★I tried to call your wa number but nobody answer because i did not found the start station in vlora. For that reason i have been forced to go to tirana by a taxi. A very bad service2025-05-14
  • reviews1★My experience was very negative, as upon arriving at the terminal in Tirana, the driver of the Tirana - Vlore route had no idea about the purchase made online, there was no identification on the bus or any indication of the company. I had to ask several people and in the end, I was able to board the Tirana - Vlore bus, but the driver had many doubts about the validity of the purchase. The gjirafa travel website offered me the option to buy a return ticket to Tirana for 16:30, and I arrived at the Vlore bus station at 16:10, but the drivers of other buses told me that the last bus from Vlore to Tirana had left at 16:00 and that there were no more. Therefore, the information on the gjirafa site does not reflect reality. I had to return to Tirana by taxi, spending three times more than the cost of the bus tickets, as my flight was scheduled for that night from Tirana airport.2025-06-25

  • reviews1★Booked a ticket but couldn't find and get on the bus2025-11-08
  • reviews1★You sold me a return ticket from Vlore to Tirana for a bus trip that doesn't exist - I ended up having to randomly book a hotel here because the buses that go back to Tirana stop running by 4 pm (or earlier) and you sold me a ticket for one that leaves at 4:30. I also ended up having to buy a toothbrush, toothpaste, a phone charger, etc., in addition to food - ended up spending like €40 I hadn't planned on beside the €7 for the ticket back. Will you people be reimbursing me for all this? I'm wearing the same clothing I did on the way over here because obviously I have nothing else to wear. I would not have bothered trying to visit this town if I knew it'd end up being a total fiasco like this, and even though the town is nice overall the experience was obviously a bad one. I will never buy bus tickets through you guys again and will be telling everyone about the ordeal I ended up enduring because of you.2026-02-10

  • reviews1★I paid for a ticket and also paid an additional fee to change the departure time. However, I was not allowed to board because, according to the staff, my ticket was not valid. I called the customer service offices to try to resolve the issue, but unfortunately no one was able to help me. I paid for both the ticket and the time change, so I would like an explanation as to why I was denied boarding and I request a refund for the amount I paid.2026-08-29
  • reviews2★The bus didn't come for us as return. Even if we were at the bus stop 30 mins before and waited for it ofr 2 hours. Since it was the last bus we had to go by taxi.2026-07-09
  • reviews3★Things to improve : my journey to vlore was late by 1 hour. There was no marker or logo to identify the bus. return journey, bus was early to depart. I would still use the bus, but would help if the following are improved : - make it easy to identify the bus - punctuality2025-04-22
  • reviews3★The service from Gifada was great, easy and we took the bus no problem from Tiranë to Vlore- the bus itself was the problem. My 13 year old son had to sit in the front with a broken seat belt, mine was not working either. Cheap, easy to use but not the safest though that may be bus travel in Albania and not Gifada’s fault.2025-05-12
  • reviews3★The bus pick up/drop off location in Vlorë is missing. I have no idea where to meet my bus tomorrow. Also the transfer from the airport bus location to the Vlorë - north/south - bus location is impossible. No instruction or accommodation whatsoever - especially with luggage. I took a taxi and figured it out.2026-04-21
  • reviews3★It was very confusing, the bus left 20 minutes earlier than what the ticket said and didn't even drive to the city.2026-07-15
  • reviews3★Vlore to Tirana airport, bus terminated at a station NOWHERE near the airport ! Cost twice as much to reach proper destination.2026-08-30
  • reviews4★A ticket is not needed. They let anyone on the bus and this ticket does not guarantee a seat. If one bus is full you can go on the next one, so no, the system is not yet working for Albania. Until you assign seat numbers and staff understand that you bought your ticket online and you get a seat before others that do not have a ticket, i won't use this again.2025-05-08
  • reviews4★The bus left 30 minutes too late ... After we arrived, everyone still needed to pay :-( You should do this in front. Too many people ... not very comfortable in travelling for 2u30.

  • reviews1★reported thisMy busride with "Bregasi" company from Vlore to Himare was a nightmare. The minibus had no aircon (outside 35°C & NO windows could be opened for a breeze. Inside the bus the temperature was 60°C (I'm not lying; it felt like inside a turkish steambath). After about 1,5 hours driving I felt very dizzy, my blood-pressure dropped & was close to fainting because of a heatstroke. The busdriver stopped, I layed myself down on the floor of the bus with my legs up to bring blood back up to my brain. The the rest of the 1h drive to Himare I was laying flat in the bus, because the dizziness from the heat was so bad. It was completely unsafe to use this broken bus with no aircon & windows to open. It was manslaughter & a high risk for the customers health.2026-06-28

  • reviews3★reported thisOverall it was good. But we went to Vlore Station but it was the wrong place so needed tp hurry and find the correct bus station. It was not that easy to find the right Vlore Station in Google Maps cause there was no Adresse in the Tickets and many different places named Vlore Station. An adress would be better than just the name Vlore Station. And the Bus had no AC it was incredibly hot in there. We arrived on time.2026-08-12

  • reviews2★I arrived at the bus station and was told multiple times that the only bus to Himare was not the one I had a ticket for. Finally after having two different people look at my ticket a combined 6 times, he said oh yeah that's us, sorry. Then the bus broke down about 2/3 of the way there. We had to stop multiple times to put water in the radiator, and then were told that everyone was getting dropped at city center since it needed to go to the mechanic. So I needed to push my luggage up steep, uneven sidewalks to the hotels area. My back has been horrible since.2026-07-15

  • reviews3★reported thisThe white van from podgarcia was like an oven. No fan, no AC. We were sweating like pigs. Luckily half way through, we were transferred to a big blue bus, then it was ok, it had AC. Also please mention on your booking page "customers should print the ticket confirmation" otherwise pay €3 at podgarcia bus station just for a print out. That was a rip off price to print a piece of paper. Had I known before, I had printer at home. So I would suggest you to mention this on your website. Thank you2026-06-26

On this line, 2 riders report the bus was overbooked: one waited 75 minutes without a seat and needed 2 bus changes, the other paid a service fee but got no AC and was squished. We need to fix overbooking practices now, or we risk more passengers bumped and delayed on a route where 5 of 10 reviews praise the service.

  • reviews2★reported thisScheduled arrival at 23 p.m., actual arrival at 2 a.m. The bus was overbooked, so for the first 75 minutes I (and six others) had no seat. Then we (seven) needed two times change to replacement busses, resulting in a massive delay. Communication about the improvised change of plans could be improved as well.2026-08-29

The bus did not arrive at Tirana airport for 2 riders, leaving them without transport. This line has 5 five-star reviews, but the pickup failure costs us trust and forces passengers to buy tickets with other companies.

Burri që u ul pranë meje nuk reshtte së ankuari pse e kisha vendosur çantën mbi sedilje, ndoshta sepse nuk i pëlqejnë të huajt—edhe pse më u desh ta merrja çantën e madhe brenda sepse bagazhi prapa ishte plotësisht i mbushur. Shoferi nuk bëri asgjë për të më ndihmuar. Ishte një përvojë e tmerrshme dhe nuk dua të hip kurrë më aty. Për më tepër, si në vajtje ashtu edhe në kthim, kondicioneri nuk funksiononte fare dhe bënte shumë nxehtë. Ishte një mundim i vërtetë.2026-08-12

2 riders booked seats online but found buses full and were forced onto later buses or given unsafe standing room instead of guaranteed seats. We are losing customers who paid for reserved seating and received none, risking refund claims and damage to our booking system's credibility.

  • reviews1★reported thisWe booked two seats from Tirana to Berat for the 10.20am bus. When we got to the bus station and found that there was no 10.20 bus. Instead there was a full 10am bus. The driver squashed me in the front and my poor husband sat in the middle of the aisle on a portable cheap plastic stool for two hours of the trip. He got a seat when someone got off the bus 10 minutes short of reaching Berat. Otherwise he was on a free standing plastic stool with no backrest while the bus travelled on the bumpy road. We thought that by booking our seat online we would have two bus seats in a bus that was not overcrowded and enjoy the trip side by side. This in no way happened.2025-09-16
  • reviews3★reported thisBus ride was fine. Driver was safe. But we made a reservation for 7:45am and told it was guaranteed seats. We arrived 7:15am at the bus station and told the 7:45am bus was full so we had to take the 8:30M bus. We were disappointed that guaranteed seating does not acutely mean that…2025-10-02

  • reviews1★We took the 2:00 pm bus from Berat Station to Gjirokastër today (16th of August 2025) and it was by far the most dangerous journey we have ever experienced. The driver’s behaviour was reckless and alarming - he overtook vehicles on blind bends, used his mobile phone while driving, took his hands off the wheel on winding roads. He narrowly missed hitting several pedestrians and nearly collided with multiple other vehicles while beeping at them almost non stop. We were at the front of the bus so we witnessed all of this. When we expressed our concerns, he responded with physical aggression towards us, which was extremely frightening. We are lucky to be alive after his driving. I honestly cannot stress to you enough how unsafe he was. He should not have a license let alone be driving a bus full of people. Take him off the roads for your future passengers and their wellbeing and safety!2025-08-16
  • reviews1★Muy mala, fuimos donde indicaba que estaría el transporte a Berat desde la estación de Norte y Sur de Tirana. Después de preguntar por el parking dimos con un minibus que partiría hacia allí. Eran las 10:20. El conductor desconocía la compañía que ponía en nuestro billete. Nos indicaron que el siguiente. Cuando vino el siguiente nos dijeron que era el que se había ido. Solución vuelta a pagar. Parece que no ven con buenos ojos la forma de reservar vis web. Si trave.gjirafa es una empresa sería espero que sea reembolsado el importe de los billetes que fueron imposibles de canjear, usar.2025-09-11

  • reviews3★We booked a travel from Shkodër to Tirana and then from Tirana to Berat. The first bus arrived too late in Tirana and then it was just chaos.

  • reviews4★Using the website platform was really easy and it makes travelling in a foreign country so much easier knowing that transport can be booked in advance. It was a little tricky trying to find the actual bus we were to take as the South and North Station of Tirana must have had at least a hundred buses and maybe ten of them had 'Berat' signs on them. However, when we asked the local staff members at the entrance, they were able to point us in the general direction of the bus. It would be helpful if there was a way that GjirafaTravel could make it clear which bus we are taking to minimise stress and help create an easier "check in" experience. HOWEVER... we will be using GjirafaTravel for the remainder of our time in Albania!2025-08-14

  • reviews1★The bus ride was an absolute nightmare. The driver arrived 40 minutes late and then insisted on running the air conditioning while we were still waiting. We finally left with about an hour’s delay. After roughly one hour of driving, the bus suddenly stopped on the highway and we were stuck there for another 40 minutes. The bus was overcrowded—so many people were crammed in that some passengers had to sit on the stairs. During the highway stop, the driver didn’t even pull the handbrake, so the bus rolled backwards several meters while we were all inside. On the highway! It was advertised as a direct trip with no stops, but instead the driver made nine additional stops. In the end, we arrived more than two hours late. Never again.2025-08-16

  • reviews3★reported thisThe bus was overbooked, the seat numbers we were given didn't exist, there ended up being one young lady having to sit on a stool in the aisle, another young lady on a step at the front, my friend in the spare driver's seat. The driver then dropped us off on the motorway junction for Durres instead of driving into the bus station 500 meters away so we had to walk up the motorway, it also meant I almost missed my stop as I was sat on the very back seat and couldn't see what was going on. The driver then shouted at me aggressively when I told him I still needed to get off and needed my luggage. Very poor experience.2026-07-01

  • reviews1★The guy at the ticket office said to get on the same bus as Tirana, but the bus driver didn't drop me at the Durres bus stop as planned. When I asked him he said he is going to Tirana and then stopped and dropped me at a service station in Durres! I had to arrange a taxi to take me to where I was staying. Very unprofessional and not a nice experience for a solo female traveller.2025-06-10

  • reviews1★Hello, we have an issue Me and 2 other guys bought tickets from Saranda to Durres from you. We told 4 times to the driver, that we go to DURES, not TIRANA and we have electronic tickets to DURRES PLEPAT STATION, not Tirana. Nevertheless the driver forgot and now we are going straight to Tirana. We would like to get our money back - all 3 of us. Our booking ID: I8kayVpd 2 people, vgOAN2rl - 1 person. Let me know what kind of payment is suitable for you - we have Czech card or Revolut. Thank you.2025-07-16
  • reviews1★Awful!! The worst experience in Albania. Very hot bus!2025-08-20
  • reviews1★It was terible in sarande they gave us the wrong ticket to Tiranë instead of durres. So we missed our city and had two take a taxi from Tiranë to durres the bus driver was very rude. We had two buy two taxis for over 10000 lek to get to our hotel and back + the fee for the buss. Terrible experience and service2026-07-12
  • reviews1★A catastrophic journey! According to the schedule, we were only supposed to change buses once, but we ended up changing three times. At the first transfer point, there was no bus or company waiting for us, so we had to travel another 30 minutes to reach a different bus. Then, in the middle of the road, we had to switch buses again just to get to Ferizaj. The organization was extremely poor, and the whole trip was stressful. However, I would like to mention that the staff and the drivers were very friendly, helpful, and did their best to assist us throughout the journey. Despite their efforts, the overall experience was very disappointing due to the poor organization. If it were possible, I wouldn’t give this service even one star.2026-07-23
  • reviews1★I bought tickets for two trips. The first was from Vlorë to Sarandë. We arrived an hour early when it was 36 degrees, but the driver wouldn’t let us board the bus so he could seat people first. If you paid him extra, you could get on and have a seat; otherwise, he wanted us to sit on a folding stool in the aisle. He treated us very rudely. The minibus was packed, with people standing; it was going very slowly, and the trip took 4 hours—not to mention the lack of safety, of course. The second trip was from Saranda to Durres. Everything was going well until we reached the Durres/Tirana turnoff, and he dropped us all off at the highway exit, with nothing around us. Instead of dropping us off at our destination, which was the station.2026-07-23
  • reviews2★We bought a ticket to the airport, we tried to change bus in Durres as the ticket said, busdriver said no, and then he only took us to the bus terminal. We had to take a taxi to the airport.2025-06-17
  • reviews2★I had my travel from Sarandë to Durres. The driver left us on the road far from any public transport or taxis somewhere near Durrës. At the gas station, he said we should go off if we plan to go to Durrës. Random strangers from the gas station ordered me a taxi and I had to pay 30€ extra for the taxi to Durrës. It was awful experience. When I buy a ticket to Durrës I want to finish my journey at the bus station or public place. Not in the middle of the highway.2025-09-29
  • reviews2★Traveling from Sarande to Durres driver dropped us on the road, and not at the bus station. Customer service was not helpful..2026-04-24
  • reviews2★Booked a coach from Saranda to durres for 10.45am. Despite getting there for 10.15am, there was a long queue to "check-in" despite having online tickets. We were then put on a 11am coach that ended up leaving 11.30am. Super tight seating/limited legroom that was quite uncomfortable. We had a 15min service stop about halfway into the journey which was helpful. However coach driver did not stop in durres and kept on driving towards Tirana. We had to keep asking him to stop while he was on the road leaving durres to avoid the long journey from Tirana back to durres. He eventually let us off the highway which wasn't an ideal place (!) and thankfully our airbnb host had our location to pick us up (our host mentioned that he has had 3 other guests of his face similar experiences with this coach). The coach driver spoke limited English so I'd recommend making sure colleagues at check-in make it explicitly clear to the driver that they need to stop at the locations you've paid to get off at.2026-07-18
  • reviews2★The initial journey was fine. It left on time and included a stop to afford passengers time for a comfort break. However, the journey was ruined when the bus stopped on the main road prior to Durrës. The staff instructed my girlfriend and I to get off here. On the main road with no pavement. It was an extremely precarious situation. We did not know where we were, how far the walk to Durrës was and according to my phone at this time it was 37°C. We had to walk up a slip road with our suitcases avoiding traffic before we reached a pavement. I was left furious as they exposed my girlfriend and I to an unnecessary risk. We paid to go to Durrës, assumably to a bus terminal, not dumped at the side of a motorway. I felt scammed and did not get what I paid for.2026-08-10
  • reviews2★You should make the address for ticket check-in highly visible and not just “check-in at the Trans Butrinti office”, which is a different place from the New bus station from where to get the bus. Driver was rude and cannot communicate in English some simple words2026-08-14

  • reviews3★Hi, I’d like to share some feedback about my recent trip with your bus service. The departure from Saranda was perfectly on time, which I really appreciated. However, my ticket stated that the drop-off point was Durres Station, but in reality the bus stopped before entering Durres. This wasn’t the most convenient location - when I checked the map, I saw it was about 6 km from my hotel. Some other passengers also seemed confused and unsure where exactly we were. I later checked my ticket again and saw that the stop mentioned there matches where we were dropped off, but it would be much more convenient if the bus could go a bit further into Durres, closer to the city centre or the main bus station. Thank you for your attention, and I hope this feedback helps improve the experience for future travelers.2025-10-06
  • reviews3★it were right gud2025-10-19
  • reviews3★From Sarande: It is not clear that you have to go to the ticket office to get a physical ticket or you won’t get a seat number. You literally have to arrive 30 minutes before or your seat could get sold to someone else.2026-07-08
  • reviews3★The experience was poor, but not due to girafa- it was the local bus experience that was poor. The bus was on time leaving but arrived 30 minutes late at the destination. It was full and very little leg room, no charging for phones or toilet. Even small backpacks did not fit overhead. The seat in front of me was broken so reclined the whole time and my knees were bruised by the end. I'm only short, so I've no idea how a tall person would cope. We were dropped on the side of a busy dual carriage way at a petrol station, not a bus stop. No info given for where we were. We had to pay a taxi to get us into the city even though the bus was meant to take us there. The Girafa booking experience was easy, but the partner local bus company they use is poor.2026-07-28
  • reviews3★G2026-08-13
  • reviews3★The points of pick up and drop off were both wrong, Thats huge for me as a solo traveler to know where I’m going to be dropped off, it was very stressful being dropped off on the side of the motorway when my ticket told me the bus station. Other than that the driver was safe and the ride was really pleasant2026-08-26

  • reviews4★The bus did not stop at the designated bus station in Durres. It stopper 500 meters beyond. The driver did not make clear it was the stop for Durres, so we did not get out and drove on to Tirana where we had to take a taxi back to Durres for 35 euro’s, and 1,5 hrs later.2025-09-30

2 riders reported the bus was overbooked: one paid for a seat but sat on suitcases next to the driver; the other stood in a crammed space for the full journey. We need more buses on this route or we risk losing customers to safety concerns and broken promises on seat guarantees.

  • reviews2★reported thisFirst of all, the fact that the seat is nit guranteed evethough bought in advance is pretty unfair. The busses are super old and on the point of breaking down, no air-conditioning. The driver just accepted all these people on tge bus on tge way back and they were standing all the way in tge crammed space, making this a dangerous journey for all of us. You know that there is a demand for this route, so consider more busses.2026-08-30

  • reviews1★Got to the bus stop half an hour early as asked but sadly the traffic was really bad meaning that we missed our bus and had to pay for another cutting our time down for the day out. We were hoping for an easier experience on the return bus however the driver was quite rude and very reluctant to let us onto the bus with our pre booked ticket. It took around 20 minutes of little communication to sort when he finally took a picture of the booking but was not very helpful and we were worried we were going to be left stranded with it being the last bus back of the day. My recommendation would be to not buy tickets in advance online and pay as you get on to avoid any disappointment.2026-08-19

  • reviews4★All great. One thing for the bus from Saranda to Gjirokaster, it was operated by Trans Butrinti. You needed to validate your ticket with them in their office and get another ticket to board. No one knew this and the bus conductor was slightly annoyed by it. Our tickets and emails don’t mention. Would be good to include for future travellers2025-07-01
  • reviews4★The bus was really clean and nice however it was very difficult to know where it departed from. It just said “Sarrande station”, without a street address. At the site there was only a tiny crumpled paper sign that we easily could have missed. Then the bus driver said we were meant to check in for a paper ticket somewhere else, which wasn’t explained to us during the purchase of the ticket.2025-07-11

  • reviews1★We booked two tickets online to go from Girokaster to Sarande. We arrived at 4:35pm and the bus had overbooking for the bus that departed at 5pm. The driver asked two people to stand up their seats and gave them to us. They travelled sitting down in the bus aisle. Two days later, we had book tickets to depart at 8:30 from Sarande to Tirana, we arrived at 8:20 and they asked as to do manual checking and the bus was overbooked again. The drivers told us to take the bus at 9:30. We arrived around 3pm but we should have arrived in Tirana at 12:50.2026-08-13

What I didn’t like at all, however, was that in the bus four additional people had to sit on stools between the rows of seats, which of course made it very cramped, and there also wasn’t enough space in the luggage rack for all the people who were on the bus.2025-09-19

  • reviews4★Overall it’s been very easy to use Gjirafa, and all trips have worked. The Gjirafa tickets have no seat assignments, so I gather that a smart idea is to find your bus ASAP and get a seat. I am not sure if that can be done a day or so in advance, an hour in advance, or not at all. I imagine each trip is different. It would also be nice to know the type of bus when booking. Or maybe I am naive and all buses are the same, more or less a minibus.2024-10-07

  • reviews1★reported thisBus was completely overloaded only half Seat2026-08-07
  • reviews1★reported thisThe worst. They oversell their buses so people have to sit on the floor. Most recently, they oversold a bus so it left early because it was full. I had purchased a set on that bus almost two weeks in advance and was left without transportation to my next destination.2026-08-17
  • reviews1★We had two different bus rides (Tirana-Vlorë and Vlorë-Sarandë) and we were glad to reach our destinations alive. Horrible and dangerous old buses. According to Gjirafa, the ride to Sarandë would be 2 hours. In reality, it took us 5(!) hours to get there.2025-04-24

Le chauffeur très désagréable ne s occupe pas du tout de ses clients pas de climatisation pendant 5 h de route 42 degrés extérieur avec 3 enfant dans le bus 50 à l intérieur! 1 arrêt le chauffeur descend ne dit rien et va boire son café sans rien dire à personne ! On ne savait même pas si on pouvait descendre! Tout le monde c est regarde interrogatif !!!Inadmissible ! Ce chauffeur est une honte!!! À la présentation de notre billet à l arrivée à Vlora il nous fait signe de dégager car nous avons un billet électronique et pas de cash !!!!! Dommage!!!! À éviter absolument !!!!!!2026-08-02

  • reviews3★We couldn't find the bus at the Tirana bus station, and it wasn't clear to us whether we got on the right bus in the end, but the driver took us and accepted our tickets. We traveled in a minibus, which was quite cramped, with little ventilation and no air conditioning. There were no seat belts at our seats either. The journey took 3 hours, and we stopped once at a gas station.2025-07-26
  • reviews3★the first bus from tirana airport to tirana station was a very good travel and very comfort bute the next bus from tirana to vlore was a katastrophe it was warm not enough room to breath am we were realy happy when it was over..2026-06-27
  • reviews3★I bought two tickets in a single booking with a self-transfer, but the transfer time was far too short. We couldn’t make the connection, so we had to pay for another bus ourselves. I also don’t understand why tickets are sold from Tirana Airport to Tirana Center when the next departure is from a different station, which requires traveling almost back toward the airport. This makes the connection very confusing and unrealistic. On the positive side, the eSIM worked perfectly without any issues. The support team also responded quickly and helped me change my email address. Thanks to them for the fast and friendly assistance!2026-07-18

  • reviews1★reported thisThe bus was canselled without any infomation at al. The next bus was smal and owerbooked. Will not book this again!2025-04-21
  • reviews1★reported thisThey're selling more tickets than they have seats. And they're not buses, but small vans with limited legroom and barely any room for luggage. In our van, about 30% more passengers wanted to ride than was possible. The driver took everyone away, saying it wasn't his problem.2025-07-09
  • reviews1★It was terrible. The seat was very narrow, especially for taller people. I was also sitting above the wheel, which made my legs sit at an awkward angle. My knees were pressed against the seat in front of me the entire way, and after 30 minutes, it became extremely painful. That made a 3-hour ride feel incredibly long.2025-05-25
  • reviews1★Very poor condition bus-seatbelts didn’t work,seat was broken and ac ineffective.2025-06-17
  • reviews1★I had to pay 30 Macedonian denars for a printed ticket, and the driver asked me for extra money for my luggage.2025-07-27
  • reviews1★The bus had almost no leg room and broken seats. It was a really uncomfortable journey, especially as I was with my 78 year old father.2025-08-31
  • reviews1★It was not a “bus”, rather a “mini-bus”. And it was extremely old, crowded, filthy, and hot inside. The driver did not open air-conditioning. It smell awful. One of the worst journeys ever.2025-09-15
  • reviews1★The bus seemed as if it had not seen maintenance since the fall of the Soviet Union. There was no air-conditioning for majority of the trip, and the driver stopped at least 6 times to pick up random passengers. Overall, I would simply pick Flixbus next time.2025-09-26

  • reviews1★Bought ticket but staff member made me pay cash2026-05-08
  • reviews1★Dear Sir/Madam, I purchased an online ticket for the Gazmend Turist bus service from Ohrid to Skopje on 17 May 2026. Trip details are as follows: • Company: Gazmend Turist • Departure station: Ohrid Station • Arrival station: Skopje Station • Departure time: 18:00 • Arrival time: 21:00 • Passenger count: 1 • Total amount paid: 29.70 € Although I arrived at the designated departure location on time, I was informed that the bus was not departing from there. Due to incorrect or insufficient information regarding the departure point, I was unable to find the correct bus and therefore could not use my ticket. As this issue was caused by misinformation, I kindly request a full refund for the unused ticket. I would appreciate your prompt response regarding this matter. Thank you in advance. Best regards, Buse Yalçın2026-05-18

I tried once more to book 14th, but it didn't work, after confirming my booking, I was only asked to buy an eSim card, but nothinh happened, no confirmation for 14th! Please tell me quickly if there is a bus on Sunday or not. That was my bad experience. I never got an answer to my request, I had to leave Podgorica one day earlier and moreover I had to pay 3€ at the bus station, because they needed a printed copy of my ticket.2025-09-17
  • reviews2★The way to go was perfect. The way back was bad, because I wanted to change the departure time and that was not possible. I lost the money for the ticket. To be honest, the next time I will not choose Gjirafa.2026-05-06
  • reviews2★I was asked to pay more fees at the station. I would have appreciated a heads-up if that’s just protocol. And also, the bus terminated at a different location, which resulted in 28 min walk (with heavy suitcases) instead of 12 min.2026-05-25

The operator sold more tickets than seats on this route, leaving passengers without places to sit on a 2-hour trip, even those who booked in advance. This overselling damages trust and requires us to enforce seat limits with the operator or remove this line from our sales.

  • reviews1★reported thisOur experience with Gjirafa was horrible. We booked a bus a day in advance with ‘guaranteed seats’ in the morning and arrived only 10 minutes early due to a delayed taxi and intense traffic, thinking that we would be fine. When arriving to the station we asked staff where our bus was and they said it was full and we couldn’t get on it. We managed to get to the ticket office where they also confirmed it was full and leaving. Still 5 minutes before scheduled time. We tried to contact via email and WhatsApp but didn’t have any luck. Had to book another bus costing more money to make up and there was certainly no refund for us. We unfortunately also booked transport back to sarande with Gjirafa when our bus back was 1 hour late. Came at 20:40 instead of 19:40. And we were even there at 19:10 as it recommends to get there 30mins prior. I understand that traffic and incidents occur that would force a bus to be delayed but one hour and no update or confirmation that it was coming was just horrendous. Glad we don’t have to use this platform again.2026-08-05
  • reviews3★reported thisVery hot bus , overbooked2026-08-07
  • reviews1★The vehicle provided was a elderly minibus, which was severely overcrowded, resulting in several passengers having to stand throughout the journey. The seatbelts were non-functional, posing a safety concern. While air conditioning was available, it was leaking and operated inconsistently. The bus was scheduled to stop at the central bus station in Himarë before proceeding to Vlorë; however, this stop was omitted, requiring passengers to disembark outside the city. Tickets purchased online were priced 2 euros higher per person compared to those bought directly from the driver. Although we successfully traveled from Sarandë to Himarë, that was the only favorable aspect of the experience.2025-08-06

  • reviews1★We did 2 trips - bus stops marked on google maps in wrong places. Supplier we used for one trip (Transbus) was terrible - very hot, seats reclined into knees of the person behind. When we dropped off in Himare (all the people on the bus) it was a 15min walk to the town in the hot sun only to find the bus parked in town (seems ridiculous the entire bus had to walk to where the bus went anyways). We unfortunately will not book again via Gjirafa and have now rented a car instead of taking anymore busses.2026-06-17

  • reviews1★Bus from Sarande, Albania to Himare, Albania didn’t even exist lol. Waisted $15 each2026-07-14
  • reviews1★Really frustrating experience. We got off the ferry from Corfu, and went to the “departure location”, only to be told to scan a QR code for the real location of the bus… which was another 15 mins by taxi to get to. This made us miss the bus. If you have a “departure location” on the ticket, it would be god to flag if this is actually where the bus is leaving from?2026-07-21
  • reviews1★The bus station indicated on the ticket was completely different from the actual departure point. When we arrived at the station shown on our ticket, they told us we had to take a taxi to another location. When we finally got there, the bus wasn’t even there, so we had to wait about 1 hour and 30 minutes. We received no refund and had to pay the same amount again in cash. The staff were also very rude and unhelpful. It honestly felt like a scam. I strongly recommend paying directly on the spot and not booking online.2026-08-19

  • reviews1★reported thisDear Sir or Madam, I tried to prepare well for my trip from Munich to Himare, but I learned otherwise at Tinara Airport: planning and preparation in the usual sense seems to be a waste of time and money here. It frustrated me greatly, and still frustrates me, that I still don't understand what and where the South North Terminal is. Likewise, I still don't understand why a bus company's journey from the airport to Himare doesn't start at the South North Terminal, as advertised (which apparently doesn't even exist), but rather at a different, very distant location, which I can only reach by using another bus company, which I found thanks to some kind people. I thought I had arrived half an hour early, right on time at 12:30, so I could take the bus to Himare at 1 p.m. (the journey from the airport to Himare was listed as taking four hours). However, it took another hour before we stopped at the designated rest area, where we were informed that the bus we had booked with Riviera Tours had already left. In hindsight, this made sense, but I was also perplexed and very surprised. We were also told that we would need to buy another ticket, as we would now be traveling with a different bus company. Unfortunately, we couldn't withdraw any cash from the ATMs at the airport, which had already confused and worried us. We ended up traveling with the other company. The journey took at least five and a half hours. During the trip, I kept wondering where I could get cash and how, or even if, this would affect our planned return trip on August 31st. It probably wouldn't work, because as the journey dragged on and on, I realized I had once again booked a return ticket in advance for nothing. We will never be able to make our flight back to Munich on August 31st at 12 pm if we take the bus from Himare at 5 am, since the journey back to the layover takes at least 5-6 hours, where the other bus company then takes us to the airport in about an hour. In total, I have paid over €64 for nothing for a bus journey that takes about 3 hours longer than expected and which we had based our flight booking on. The fact is, I now have to leave a day earlier and therefore have to pay for a night's accommodation in Himare for nothing, and I now have to find accommodation in Tirana so that I can make my flight on August 31st on time. All told, I now have approximately €150 in additional costs due to the missing information. I have not yet received a reply to the two emails I sent to gjirafa. Please explain to me what advantages this approach offers all parties involved, in case I haven't yet grasped the underlying rationale. Thank you for your understanding. Sylvia Daub2026-08-19
  • reviews1★Wij hadden een busticket geboekt van Tirana naar Himare, bleek dat de bus niet aan het vliegveld stond maar in centrum Tirana waar we niet meer op tijd konden geraken en we dus hebben gemist. Let goed op dus! Was voor ons niet duidelijk2025-06-07
  • reviews1★Good morning, despite the hot weather, the driver repeatedly turned off the air conditioning even after being asked several times to keep it on. When I pointed it out, he laughed together with another lady and spoke loudly with her for most of the journey. Thank you.2026-03-06
  • reviews1★There were no seats available when we arrived. The driver moved items left to reserve seats when we insisted. The same happened to friends travelling in the same bus. There were unpleasant arguments over seats. There were not enough seats for the number of passengers. The bus went with four passengers standing which is dangerous.

  • reviews2★The bus from Tirana to Himare was supposed to take 2 hours and 40 minutes, but instead it took 4 hours and 30 minutes. I understand that buses can’t always arrive exactly on time, but that is a massive difference and it ruined our plans for the evening. Also, the air conditioning was almost non-existent, which was a shame given that it was 32 degrees outside. It felt like I was boiling during those hours. I didn’t give a one-star rating only because I appreciated how easy it was to buy the bus tickets online, and in the end, I did reach my final destination safely.2025-08-04

  • reviews1★reported thisThe experience was terrible i’d not recommend this website to anybody, in fact I also have shared my horrible experience on your facebook and on Trustpilot. The bus was old, the drivers were very rude they even smoke while driving , THEY OVERBOOKED THE BUS TO PODGORICA and they were 4 hours late so I arrived at 3 o’clock and this created further problems with my accommodation. Vetoni and you are the worst representation and model for foreigners visiting the balkans. Not even in Africa i had such poor service.2025-08-18
  • reviews1★reported thisDreadful. Broken seats, unclean and poor aircon. Transferred to a mini van which was not told when booking or before getting on the bus. Never again.2026-08-04
  • reviews1★picking up and dropping off people from 15 different locations caused us 2 hours delay of arrival time.2025-08-17
  • reviews1★We arrived somewhere and they started shouting skoder pedgoric luckily i found the situation bizarre and showed my ticket again and they said i need to change to mini bus so i saved 7 others that didnt know after 30 min we stopped nowhere to wait someone comming to take some packages but when i asked the driver why we here he keept saying 5 mins 5 mins he not understand that time is money and at the destination ppl are waiting for us. I helped 7 ppl to change the bus cause the driver was angry and shouting without explaining in English to tourists that you need to change here You need to put on the ticket or tell the passengers that they will change buses otherwise they stay till the end thinking they on good route2025-08-31

  • reviews1★Although this journey is advertised as “direct”, it is anything but. There are multiple stops and detours along the way, making the trip much longer and more confusing than expected. At one point, before the Montenegro border, all passengers were suddenly told to switch from the bus to a van, with no explanation. The staff did not speak English and provided no clear instructions, leaving passengers to figure things out among themselves. The lack of communication made the experience feel very disorganized and, at times, unsafe — especially since this was a night journey. At the border crossings, we had to get off the vehicle and stand on the roadside to present documents, again with no proper guidance. As a woman travelling alone, I did not feel safe, particularly given the circumstances and the lack of information throughout the trip. Overall, this is not a journey I would recommend. Clear communication, basic organization, and passenger safety should be a priority, and unfortunately, that was not the case here.2026-05-06
  • reviews1★Sorry, I should have given 4 stars. Everything went well except that it wasn't a direct trip Pristina - Podgorica as booked: at a certain point, I do not even know where, I had to change the bus (from a "normal" bus to a Sprinter)2026-06-21

2 riders report the bus left early or did not arrive at the pickup point; a third describes the same issue in detail. Without a fix, we lose riders to taxis and refund claims on this line.

  • reviews1★Dear Ghirafa Support, I am writing to file a complaint regarding a bus I booked through your platform. The trip was scheduled for the 20/07/2025 at Shkoder at 22:00 with the Vetoni Tourist company, departing from Shkodra. We were at the designated pick-up location (which was not clear from the ticket) on time but the bus did not stop when it arrived 1h late. The driver saw us and waved a sign to tell us to tell us that it would not stop, we run after it but it never stopped. The bus seemed to be very full with many people standing. Here are the details of my reservation: – Name: Étienne de L’Estoile – Reservation Number: vNUhUDN6 – Date and Time: 20/07/2025 at Shkoder at 22:00 – Location: Buna Bridge in Shköder As a result, I was unable to travel as planned. We were left alone at 11pm far from the center and had to book a taxi in order not to lose our accomodation in Monténégro (60€). I thus request a full refund of the ticket and an explanation of why the bus failed to stop at the scheduled location. I look forward to your prompt response and resolution. Kind regards, Étienne de L’Estoile and Julie Oudot2025-07-21

2 riders report the bus was full and did not stop for them at the pickup point, forcing them to find other transport. We risk losing customers and refund costs if pickup locations stay unclear and overbooking continues on this route.

2 riders reported that buses on this line left early or never arrived at all—1 said the 16:00 bus never showed up, the other said the bus did not arrive and money could not be refunded. We lose money and trust each time a bus fails to run or departs before schedule, and riders switch to other operators.

2 riders reported the bus had too many passengers and they had to stand for the full trip or 1.5 hours, with one experiencing physical contact from another person. We sold more seats than the bus held, which means we failed to deliver what passengers paid for and risk their health and safety.

  • reviews5★The bus itself was great, nicely airconned and not too busy, however the instructions to find the bus stop are very vague and the process very confusing, we went to the bus stop on google maps and had to get on a mini bus that charged us a pound, to then get to the other area where the bus was.. very strange process, also the journey is almost 2 hours2026-07-04

  • reviews1★reported thisTerrible. Bought my tickets in advance and turned up on time to the bus station in Pogradec to find out (through a member of the public who spoke English, because obviously none of the staff do) that the bus driver hadn't had any information about advance bookings, and that there were no seats. Eventually got shunted onto a different bus by another inexplicably angry bus driver, the bus was so hot a passenger fainted 20 minutes in and had to be brought round in the aisle. No stars2026-08-29
  • reviews2★reported thisDrivers were not aware of the possibility of having a ticket bought online, so it took some time and efforts trying to prove that the ticket is legit. In the way back almost all the seats were “booked” by the driver, so despite coming early I could not choose the seat, but had to be squeezed in the last row.2025-08-19

7 riders report rude or loud staff: drivers shouting on phones while driving, yelling at passengers, and speaking in ways that felt aggressive or impatient. This behavior appears on a line that 48 riders rated 4-5 stars and 35 rated 1-2 stars, so we need to confirm how often it truly happens and train staff on passenger respect.

  • reviews1★reported thisLoud music, dripping air conditioner and macho staff2024-09-04
  • reviews1★reported thisDriver was driving dangerously, constantly texting and scanning QR codes whilst driving. He had several phone calls where he was shouting in Albanian. The arrival time was delayed by over 1.5 hours because of his poor driving and the rest stop which was supposed to be 10 minutes but turned out to be 45. Terrible experience. Rudest driver I have ever met. I booked the bus back to the airport but will pay extra for a taxi instead. I’m going to leave 1 star review online to advise other tourists not to use this terrible service2025-07-20
  • reviews1★reported thisYour driver was very loud, appeared to be impatient and rude. I don't speak albanian so I can't be certain. His conversations were loud and argumentative. He spent the entire journey, approximately 4 hours, on his phone while driving around hairpin bends on the side of a mountain. He was face timing, shouting on his phone, texting on his phone while driving. I am visiting from the UK and wondered if I was actually going to make it home! He's an incredibly ignorant man who took no care of his passengers2025-09-13
  • reviews1★reported thisI strongly advise against traveling with Olgeno Travel. The bus was extremely old, and the air conditioning didn’t work, making the journey very uncomfortable. On top of that, the driver was very rude to the passengers throughout the trip. It was such a disappointing experience that, even though I had already paid for my return ticket with them, I chose not to use it and traveled back with Riviera instead. Riviera was far more professional, comfortable, and reliable, and I highly recommend them to anyone traveling between Tirana and Himarë. I would not use Olgeno Travel again.2026-08-03
  • reviews1★reported thisJourney Took twice as Long as descriped, Bus driver was very loud and the Bus barely had AC2026-08-04
  • reviews1★reported thisSuffice it to say we would never take a bus ride like that again, nor recommend it to anybody else. The ride was way longer and rougher than we expected, with a surly bus driver.2026-08-27
  • reviews3★reported thisBus delayed, driver could have been friendlier, bus seemed to have been overbooked as one passenger didn’t have a seat2026-07-30
  • reviews1★Worst experience ever. I will sue the company. I had to travel sitting on the bus floor2024-09-01
  • reviews1★They didn’t explain me well where to go or what to do. Also they made me move from my seat to leave to someone else without explanation.2024-10-09
  • reviews1★The air conditioner was not working at all, making the entire trip a complete nightmare. Additionally, the driver did not announce the stops, so if you don't have internet access to track each stop he made, you could easily end up lost.2025-04-29
  • reviews1★It was a very Bad experience, since we all (8people) wanted for the bus for which we has already paid and no driver showed up. So I expect from you to transfer the money back to my account. I and all the other 7 people had to pay 2 private taxis to get to Himare!2025-05-02
  • reviews1★Horrible ride no ac it was like 35 degrees in the back complete catastrophe2025-05-08
  • reviews1★Never had anything like this before, first the driver tells me that it’s fool, although i made my booking days in advance, he made me sit in a stool against any safety policy and client confort, i travel for 5h grabbing anywhere i could to stay safe and moving to relieve my back pain. I don’t wish this to anybody2025-05-18
  • reviews1★Awful service. The website makes it look like modern coaches, possibly with toilets and at least decent air conditioning. Instead this was an old coach with terrible air conditioning. Not only that but there were a good 15 people standing the aisle for most of the journey. So dangerous and surely illegal. I didn't take the return journey and instead hired a taxi at great expense to avoid this horrendous bus. Never again.2025-07-08
  • reviews1★got sick, couldn't refund2025-08-14
  • reviews1★We were on a bus with no air conditioning, about 33 degrees outside and almost 40 degrees inside. It was an ordeal, suffering through the five-hour journey. This is UNACCEPTABLE. They can't provide service in those conditions. One girl had a panic attack from the heat. It's disrespectful to charge 15 euros per person per ride. It's disgusting to me that they're offering something like that.2025-08-18

  • reviews1★Voyage dans le car debout 3h alors que j’ai pris en ligne le billet et c’était écrit « place assise garantie », on nous a pris pour des pigeons, des personnes sont montées alors qu’ils avaient pas de billet, pas de contrôle bref organisation médiocre2025-09-06
  • reviews1★Horrible experience!! I reached out to you via WhatsApp with no response. Your website declares guaranteed seat when I bought on your platform, yet the bus was way overbooked. I had to stand the entire 5 hour drive. There was probably 10-15 people standing. Some standing down in the back door stoop while the driver drove with the door open. Very unsafe, very uncomfortable and definitely not what I paid for. Me and 1 of my children had to stand for a long bus ride through the mountains. And then no response from you when I reached out!! Yeah, never will I use your platform again. I am currently in the process of filing a report with the Albanian travel authority regarding the unsafe conditions and will report you as well for the blatant false claims of having a guaranteed seat. I have plenty of pictures of this overbooked and over crowded bus. Safety of your customers obviously means nothing!2025-09-13
  • reviews1★My bus never showed up and when I called the company they said the line didn’t exist2025-10-18
  • reviews1★When we got to the bus terminal, the space wasn’t clean and. it well organized. But the worst part is that the bus just wants functioning and they told us we had to wait till the next day to take a bus. We had obviously already paid but we’re not able to get in the bus. A group of us were all in the same bad situation with no other way to get to our destination. Neither Girafa or the bus agency gave any warning. They did not tell us in advance that there was a problem with the bus. We are going to demand a reimbursement.2026-06-03
  • reviews1★Arrival time was meant to be 10:40 and due to multiple stops in the middle of the journey it ended up being 12:20 - 1.5 hours extra2026-06-05
  • reviews1★I arrived at the bus station 20 minutes early and the bus already left. I had to pay 40 euros for a taxi to get to Himare. Now I am worried about making the bus back to Tirana and then taking a different bus to Prizren.2026-06-10

  • reviews2★Die Fahrt von Tirana nach Himara sollte eigentlich 3 Stunden dauern, tatsächlich dauerte sie 5 Stunden. Der Bus war überfüllt, einige mitreisende mussten die Fahrt über stehen.2025-06-13
  • reviews2★The driver was making a lot of stops so that means that is not a direct bus and instead of arriving and 6:40 we arrived 2 hours late, also the wanted me to take a sit in the part of the stairs of the bus when I obviously paid a sit I will never recommend this because in the website you don’t specify2025-07-05
  • reviews2★The bus didn't leave on time. When it started after an hour, the driver had to fill up with gas and get some coffee. Then there were constant breaks; some passengers were dropped off directly at the hotel, some not. Instead of three hours, the journey took six hours. Pay ticket online is more expensive.2025-07-07
  • reviews2★The travel was supposed to be 3 h and 10 minutes, but ended up 5 hours. Bad seats, overfilled, so that more people say on the floor. Hardly no aircondition.2026-06-18
  • reviews2★I paid for a guaranteed seat ticket in advance, from Tirana to Himarë, got to the terminal 15 minutes early, and the bus was full. They made me sit on the floor, and continued to cram ppl in the whole way there. The bus which was supposed to be 2 1/2 hours total, was 5 1/2! Not direct like it says, as it stops for anyone who flags it down. Props to them for giving so many ppl a ride at least…2026-06-18
  • reviews2★please don‘t ask passengers to be early at South Parking… This is not a terminal!!! No waiting room, toiles, counter etc… One hour waiting in the bus, terrible heat, last 20 minutes only A C, with loud working motor of course. I had to drink more water, and asked for a toilet break 2 hours later, first driver information , was 5 minutes. Could have been waiting fifteen minutes but 30 was really hard! Zéro information about delay during the trip, to at least give your approximative arriving time 😟2026-06-21
  • reviews2★Driver left 35 after planned departure to fill two seats. Arrived 1.5 hours late to himare.2026-07-06
  • reviews2★Chaotic experience Bus broken toilet and aircon useless2026-07-07
  • reviews3★According to the scheduled arrival time the trip should have taken 3 hours and 10 minutes, but in reality it was 4 and a half hours. The timetable should be updated with realistic arrival times. Also, when going to Tirana, in Himare the bus stopped at a different location, not where it was stated on our ticket.2024-09-08
  • reviews3★Good that you have an overview in this platform of all the routes, however, bus lines can be late and there’s no info or whatsover on customer service line or telephone numbers on where to call to get more information about delays, cancellations and other topics2024-09-10
  • reviews3★bus took way longer than 3 hours like it states, you do this drive enough to know it takes longer than that so this should be updated as it’s misleading and people may have plans which would be missed due to how long it takes! also not guaranteed a seat which isn’t good on a long hot coach2025-06-18
  • reviews3★Overall it was good but many things could be improved like ac and planning more time for the journey since there’s construction and many stops along the way. Maybe add clearer indications at the bus station too.2025-08-08
  • reviews3★Bus was not good, drivers delayed the trip in over 2 hours. Hard to find the bus at an inexistent bus station2025-08-19
  • reviews3★The bus left 1h late and arrived at 4.30pm when it was meant to arrive at 1.40pm - 3h late!! The bus drive was fine but I missed the ongoing bus because we were so delayed.2025-08-28
  • reviews3★Nous sommes arrivés avec 2h de retard. Nous avons raté l'excursion que nous avions réservé.2025-10-14
  • reviews3★The coach did not have air-conditioning and did not stop at the bus station as expected so we missed our stop.2026-07-06
  • reviews3★Mainly, the driver let Himarë bound passengers off outside the town instead of in town. This may have been because the bus was an hour behind schedule.2026-07-31
  • reviews3★Good2026-08-01
  • reviews4★The bus was comfortable and left on time. However, the ride took longer than expected because the driver stopped many times for unclear reasons. It would be nice if he informed us about the reasons , and also would be nice to shout out the name of the place where we stopped, so we would know when to get out.2024-09-04

  • reviews4★Booking was easy, showing the bus attendant the ticket was easy. However.. the bus area in Tirane is literally so gross; Trash is EVERYWHERE. The bus itself is old, not updated, and dirty. It said direct, which to me means no stops. We stopped to pick up numerous people along the way, which was efficient and quick, but not what was described. The ride itself wasn’t bad though. AC worked, seats reclined.2025-09-09

  • reviews4★Overall not a bad experience. Booking was easy. However it was a bit confusing trying to find which bus to get on when departing Tirana as the bus station was simply a massive car park with different companies and busses everywhere. Bus left a little late as well and the journey took longer than expected. I do believe this is something you expect when travelling to Albania though so all part of the fun travelling experience!2026-06-14

  • reviews1★reported thisStaff is unfriendly and rude.2026-04-15
  • reviews1★reported thisChaotic to get on the bus, no fresh air, no air-conditioning, bus driver had a screaming argument with 4 different people that day and made everyone on board uncomfortable2026-05-28
  • reviews1★reported thisMy experience with Gjirafa Travel / Gazmend Turist was extremely disappointing and, frankly, unacceptable. The departure journey from Skopje to Prishtina was very unpleasant. The air conditioning barely worked, making the bus hot, stuffy, and uncomfortable throughout the trip. Despite passengers raising concerns, the driver was rude and unwilling to address the issue. The return journey from Prishtina to Skopje was even worse. We arrived at the station around 5:30 PM, well before the scheduled departure, and presented our valid electronic ticket on our phones. However, the driver refused to let us board, insisting that only a printed ticket would be accepted, despite no such requirement being clearly communicated during the booking process. We were forced to run around the bus station searching for a print shop, causing unnecessary stress and anxiety. After eventually allowing us to board, the driver deliberately made us sit at the very back of the bus despite many other seats being available. Throughout the interaction, his behaviour was rude, disrespectful, and unprofessional. We left feeling that we were treated differently because of our skin colour, which made the experience even more upsetting. No passenger should be subjected to such treatment. Good customer service starts with respect, professionalism, and equal treatment for everyone. I urge Gjirafa Travel to investigate this incident thoroughly and provide me with a formal response explaining what action has been taken against the staff involved. If I do not receive a satisfactory response, I will have no option but to escalate this matter to the relevant consumer protection authorities and share my experience on public review platforms so that other travellers are aware of how we were treated. I sincerely hope the company takes this complaint seriously and ensures that no other passengers have to endure such an unpleasant experience.2026-07-11
  • reviews1★reported thisEven though I was there on time, they refused to let me board the vehicle, saying it was full. I had made my reservation hours in advance. They let someone who paid in cash board instead, and left me behind. Even after I told the driver that I had already paid in advance, he just shrugged, made dismissive gestures with his hands, and didn’t even say a word. When I asked for my money back, he simply waved his hands, got into the vehicle, and drove away.2026-07-14
  • reviews1★reported thisI paid money just like everyone else so I can sit on the floor of the bus. There were no free sits and the driver told me to sit on the floor of the bus or wait for the other one. At least I got to sit on the floor, the other people who also bought tickets from you didn't get any chance to get on the bus, and some of them bought them since February and planned their trips so this rude driver can destroy it for them. The driver did a lot of driving mistakes where he got all of us into danger and he got into a heated argument on the border.2026-08-07
  • reviews2★reported thisThe driver was super rude, we said we needed to keep out small bags with us he just shut the door and shouted at us to either put the bags in the back or leave.2026-05-20
  • reviews3★reported thisWe missed our first bus because the people at the bus station wouldn’t let us in because we had to pay the bau station tax and instead of letting the bus know they wouldn’t let us in and then when we got there 2 minutes later it was gone. and then we couldn’t get on the bus 45 minutes later so we had to buy a new ticket. The bus driver was very rude as well and talking to someone else on the bus and when we got our tickets he kept bitching. So I wouldn’t recommend montoya travel.2026-08-12
  • reviews1★no AC for whole trip and delay 90mins2025-07-27
  • reviews1★On 14.08.2025 I traveled with Gazmend Turist from Prishtina to Skopje. Unfortunately, the experience was extremely disappointing and unsafe. The bus broke down in the middle of the highway, and all passengers were left waiting for over 2.5 hours at night without any clear information about what was happening. Even more concerning, no safety measures were taken – not even a simple warning triangle to alert other vehicles on the road. This created a dangerous situation for both passengers and other drivers. Basic passenger communication and safety procedures were completely missing. I expected at least timely updates, assistance, or visible concern for the wellbeing of the passengers, but this was not the case. This level of service is unacceptable for an international route. I strongly recommend the company to improve both safety standards and communication with passengers in such situations.2025-08-15
  • reviews1★The driver of the bus from Skopje to Pristina (on October 6, 2025, at 8 AM) tried to throw us off the bus despite the fact that we had tickets for a specific departure time – he ordered passengers with tickets bought online to get off.2025-10-09
  • reviews1★15 persons car, we are 22 people in the car. Most passengers were standing. Most passengers were standing. Everyone was uneasy.2025-10-26
  • reviews1★We were waiting for 20 minutes past the scheduled departure time, and when it finally arrived it occoured to us that we will be riding in a mini-bus that didn't have the amount of seats neeeded to move all of us, it was 5 seats short. So some of the ticket buyers were forcred to ride all the way through while standing. Awful experience to say the least.2025-11-01

  • reviews1★We waited at the designated spot for an hour before departure. Despite this, the driver only picked up some of the passengers. He left the rest without resolving the issue. How is it even possible that more tickets were sold than there are seats on the bus? We had to wait another several hours for another bus from a different carrier to reach our destination. Therefore, I am requesting a refund of the ticket reservation costs and compensation.2026-01-06

  • reviews1★We barely got let into the bus on the way back. People without online tickets were prioritized at boarding, and we could only board after all the people without online tickets physical tickets had boarded (even though we were at the bus more than 30 minutes prior to departure). This led to us having to stand up during the entire 2 hour bus trip2026-05-18

  • reviews1★On our return trip from Pristina to Skopje, my daughter and I traveled with 25 more people on a bus suitable for 23 people (4 people more than the capacity), and 4 people were left on the ground. Anlso, priority was given to people who had a paper ticket, before those who had an online booking. It is unbelievable that you accept more reservations than the actual seats capacity!2026-08-08
  • reviews1★Gazmend Turist drivers do not accept tickets purchased online through Girafa Travel. They only accept tickets purchased at the bus station and allow these passengers to board first. Passengers with online tickets through Girafa Travel will be left behind at the bus station.2026-08-14
  • reviews1★I have scammed. I paid a ticket with your company. Arrived 2 hours in advance at the station. When the bus came, they let other people go in then said the bus is full. I could not take the bus. I want refund. It is outrageous of you. I had to buy an other tikcet, more expensive of course.2026-08-15
  • reviews1★Se potessi mettere 0 stelle lo farei. Purtroppo la mia esperienza non è stata affatto positiva. Ho comprato i biglietti online e non sono garantiti, il personale fa salire coloro che hanno acquistato il biglietto cartaceo e se rimane posto ti fa salire. Ho prenotato per Pristina il 14/08/2026, la mattina nessuna informazione e l'autobus che dovevamo prendere non si è presentato e ho dovuto prendere quello dell' ora successiva senza che nessuno ha dato informazioni utili e quindi siamo arrivati a destinazione con quasi 2 ore di ritardo. Il vero problema è stato il viaggio di ritorno dove nonostante avessimo il biglietto ci è stato negato di salire. I posti disponibili erano meno della metà del necessario. Dopo discussioni hanno fatto viaggiare alcuni di noi in condizioni pessime, in totale assenza di procedure di sicurezza viaggiando su un banchetto di plastica nel corridoio, senza aria condizionata e in totale illegalità. Altri sono dovuti rimanere a terra nonostante avessero acquistato il biglietto. È stata una vera follia, senza nessuna indicazione, lasciando delle persone con regolare biglietto in un paese straniero. Mi sarei aspettato minimo il rimborso del biglietto e le scuse con una alternativa per tornare e invece il personale se ne è fregato. Ho trovato tutto questo totalmente assurdo, una situazione in cui non mi sono mai trovato nonostante io viaggi ogni mese anche per lavoro. Sconsiglio vivamente a tutti questa pessima esperienza.2026-08-15

  • reviews2★Hello, the online shopping experience was very good, however, I thought it was terrible that the driver prevented those who bought online from getting on the bus, we had to wait the last minutes to board and get the worst seats, I didn't understand why we had to wait to get inside and I went through a stressful situation during the holidays that I wouldn't like.

  • reviews2★Journey from Skopje to Pristina was perfect. Everyone has it's own place and it went smooth. Problem occurred when we were traveling back to Skopje from Pristina. We had tickets bought online with qr code , everything was paid in advance but the driver was letting to the bus only passengers with physical paper ticket from station and there were too many passenger to time we had bought our tickets. So situation was that passenger with paper ticket can go to bus and others who bought ticket online need stay because it's no enough seats. Fortunately some passenger translated to the driver from English to Macedonian and driver let us travel but we sitter on plastic chair in the aisle between other passenger , and some passengers were standing the whole journey to Skopje . So we traveled like 30 people in bus for 20 people (approximately). Your company is joke , you need to learn to sell only that much ticket how many places are on the real bus . This is not driver's mistake, he only drives and needs to deal with that situations daily as we heard . Your company selling much more tickets than seats in bus so you need to improve and also give driver som app that he can scan qr code and let passengers to the bus with online ticket also not only with paper tickets and then he needs to deals with situation what to do with the people left. We are grateful about driver because in the end he allow us to travel but as I said it was very uncomfortable to sit in the aisle basically between others like animals. Next time I would buy only paper tickets at the station if you don't know how to work with technologies.2026-07-30

  • reviews3★Overall experience was positive, although it is not clear why there should be a difference between those who buy the ticket online and those who buy it at the desk. In Skopje We had to wait for another bus as the first one was full of passengers who bought their ticket at the desk and arrived after us: being very cold outside this was not pleasant. In Pristina we made sure to arrive early as chances to not find a seat are quite high. Drivers could be more road wise as they tend to fidget quite a lot on cell phones, papers or being distracted talking to passengers.2026-01-03
  • reviews3★-in Skopje you have to pay an extra ticket to access the bus platform -I asked twice in Pristina if all was good with my ticket, and they said yes. Then when I arrived they said the bus was full and they could not grant a seat for me, even though I had booked a seat for that bus2026-05-11

  • reviews5★I was backpack-travelling Europe when I was in Tirana, searching for a bus ticket to Skopje and further to Sofia. It was either Google Maps or Rome to Rio that led me to the Gjirafa website. After a few minutes it was clear that I could book Tirana to Skopje (with connecting in Pristina) at Gjirafa. The cherry on the pie was an eSIM card for 12 Balkan countries for a good price - 100% fit for my needs! After 15 minutes I had purchased two bus tickets plus the eSIM card. I was happy and could relaxedly continue with my sightseeing in Tirana.2025-08-24

One of the other passengers asked him to turn it down, but he turned it back up again. They played the same CD four times on repeat. The music itself was good, but it was so loud, and it was rude to make it to where we could not hear our own even with noise canceling headphones.2025-09-29

  • reviews5★The process to buy a ticket was easy and saved me the headache of trying to get a ticket day-of from operators who might not have a physical presence at the station. Having a consolidated schedule across the various bus operators is also very useful. More details about the bus stations themselves beyond a map pin would be a nice-to-have feature (description/picture of staging area, note on how the bus boarding bay is picked or that you need to find it yourself if it's random, whether or not the operator has an office at the station, etc.) but this isn't critical. Ultimately, my journey was much less stressful because I bought my tickets ahead of time on Gjirafa.2025-11-28

  • reviews2★reported thisFirst of all, the fact that the seat is nit guranteed evethough bought in advance is pretty unfair. The busses are super old and on the point of breaking down, no air-conditioning. The driver just accepted all these people on tge bus on tge way back and they were standing all the way in tge crammed space, making this a dangerous journey for all of us.

  • reviews1★Got to the bus stop half an hour early as asked but sadly the traffic was really bad meaning that we missed our bus and had to pay for another cutting our time down for the day out. We were hoping for an easier experience on the return bus however the driver was quite rude and very reluctant to let us onto the bus with our pre booked ticket. It took around 20 minutes of little communication to sort when he finally took a picture of the booking but was not very helpful and we were worried we were going to be left stranded with it being the last bus back of the day. My recommendation would be to not buy tickets in advance online and pay as you get on to avoid any disappointment.2026-08-19

Would be good to include for future travellers2025-07-01
  • reviews4★The bus was really clean and nice however it was very difficult to know where it departed from. It just said “Sarrande station”, without a street address. At the site there was only a tiny crumpled paper sign that we easily could have missed. Then the bus driver said we were meant to check in for a paper ticket somewhere else, which wasn’t explained to us during the purchase of the ticket.2025-07-11

The bus had no air conditioning during 36-degree heat, making the 2.5-hour trip unbearable for 2 riders who reported it. On a line where 12 reviews rate it 4-5 stars but 14 rate it 1-2 stars, this failure directly drives negative ratings and lost customers.

  • reviews1★reported thisAbsolutely terrible experience. The bus was old, dirty and clearly not properly maintained. The worst part was that there was no air conditioning at all, despite the extremely hot weather. The journey was uncomfortable from start to finish, with unbearable heat and poor conditions inside the bus. On top of that, the information about where and how to catch the bus was extremely unclear and confusing. For tourists, the whole experience felt completely outdated and disorganized. It honestly felt like travelling in the Stone Age when it comes to tourist services. Albania really needs to improve its public transport system and make it much more tourist-friendly. I would definitely not recommend this bus service.2026-08-21
  • reviews2★reported thisNo good communication at arrival. Didn't say any name on the bus. No AC in the bus so we were sweating like animals. Just happy to arrive in time and to the right destination.2025-06-13
  • reviews1★I had a very bad experience with this supposedly called bus company. I bought a ticket from Vlora to Tirana and was expecting a bus with good conditions as described in the website, while all there was an old mini van (furgon) that seems to have contract with Girafa.

  • reviews1★I am writing to formally lodge a complaint regarding a transfer service I recently used with your company, traveling from Fier to Tirana. The experience was, without exaggeration, one of the most unpleasant journeys I have ever endured, and I believe it falls far below any acceptable standard of passenger transport. I would like to bring the following serious issues to your attention: 1. No Air Conditioning The minivan used for the transfer had no functioning air conditioning whatsoever. Given the extreme heat conditions during the journey, the temperature inside the vehicle became unbearable. Passengers were subjected to intense heat for the entire duration of the trip, which poses not only a serious comfort issue but also a genuine health and safety concern. 2. Extremely Poor Vehicle Condition The interior of the minivan was in a deplorable state of cleanliness. The seats were visibly and heavily soiled, making it deeply unpleasant to sit in. The overall condition of the vehicle was entirely unacceptable for a paid passenger transport service. 3. Driver Smoking Inside the Vehicle Most disturbingly, the driver was smoking cigarettes inside the closed minivan throughout the journey, with no window open to allow ventilation. This is not only extremely disrespectful to passengers but is also a serious health hazard — particularly for those with respiratory conditions — and likely a violation of public transport regulations. The combination of these three issues made the journey genuinely uncomfortable and unacceptable. I paid for a transport service and received conditions that no paying customer should ever be subjected to. In light of the above, I am formally requesting a full or partial refund for the amount paid for this transfer. I expect your company to take this complaint seriously and respond with a concrete resolution. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you require any further details regarding this journey. I look forward to your prompt response. Sincerely, Gabriel2026-06-12
  • reviews1★My bus scheduled for 5:30 simply never showed up. I was really disappointed. Luckily, there was another bus at 6:00, so I was able to leave on that one.2026-07-29
  • reviews1★We booked on line, when we arrived at the station there was a random assortment of old buses with no staff in attendance to assist which bus to get on. One driver indicated that his bus was going to Tirana, we showed him our tickets and he indicated get on board. The bus was appropriately a 20 seater, old, dirty and the seat was so close I had sit the whole way with my knees in the aisle. The bus traveled at a steady 70 kmh and we had no air conditioning for the next 2.5 hours ( the air-conditioning kicked into life twice for about 5 minutes each time) in 36 degrees heat. An experience I would not like to repeat.2026-08-02
  • reviews1★We weren’t able to get on the second bus because we came to the station at 12:20 not 11:20. And the trip started at 9:15 not at 9:002026-08-03
  • reviews1★it was awfullll it was a small car and all seats were occupied which doesnt make sense, we came there driver like yeah i have one plastic chiar you can sit , i was like we are 3 ppl are you mad? its a 2 hour 50 minute drive, he ended up finding another chair so two of my friends sat at the middel while i with 188m height sat in small area right at the entrance door for 80% of the drive i was around ppls feet on the dirty ground then driver proceeded to pick up more ppl by the road so he basically got ppl out of your app which is bs idk it was horrible i was dirty and sweaty whole time since i was under sun + when we first found he was like no im not your driver afte 3 minutes someone from side probably with better english understood checked and told him that he should call us back so he did and was like sorry you were right you are my passengers2026-08-11
  • reviews2★The first time using Girafa was fine, but I don't understand why you are offering an esim and the way it appears makes one think that you cannot book a trip without it. I regret buying it. The second trip did not happen. I tried booking bus fare for today back to my city and the system would not confirm. Now I have en email saying I didn't complete the process when it was your system. I was lucky. I went to bus terminal in Tirane and found a bus so I could go home. I better not see any more trips than the one.2025-07-10
  • reviews2★Firstly the drivers knew nothing in English. Then we drove like 2 hours 30 minutes, but they dropped us off at the middle of nowhere. Then if we wanted to really get to the airport, like we booked, we had to pay plus 4 euros to another bus take us to our destination which was another 1 hour. I don’t recommend2025-08-31
  • reviews2★Well. At least kin Vlore, I never know which of the two bus stations to get the buses. The last time I went to the station near Old Town. No Gjirafa travel bus signs, do I got on a bus that was there. A day ago, I paid for a ticket and again had no idea where to go or what bus to get on. I won't be buying any more tickets in advance because I don't use them and I wind up paying twice.2025-12-02

  • reviews3★The bus Vlore to Tirane Ok it arrived on time, though it left 30 minutes after my ticket time of 9 AM- seats barely space for my knees; Returning tirane-vlore the bus seats were cramped and I had to sit sideways and the bus was quite bumpy-rough ride. I was really angry that the vlore dropoff was 150 meters north of Haso Hiper market- not anywhere close to the Vlore bus station. Lucky it stopped raining and I had no luggage. I walked 1.5 KM to a buss stop on the main boulevard. Upsetting they drop in the middle of 10 taxis...no local bus service that I know of2026-01-07
  • reviews3★The actual bus service is much different than what it seems on your website (at least for the Albania destinations). The buses are the smaller ones run by private individuals and not the larger buses you would expect. Plus there are no terminals just random stops2026-05-03
  • reviews3★The bus drivers was not so happy for a prepaid ticket from Gjirafa - they want cash. But they accepted it with som discontent. Many of the buses have no AC and no windows to open (because they are built for AC). This is probably feedback to the bus companies, so please bring the message forward. As a tourist we would gladly pay twice or even triple and more for bus tickets with better busses that have functioning AC.2026-07-06

  • reviews5★Good experience, especially the ability to reserve and to pay for tickets by credit card. The service fee is reasonable (10%) for that piece of mind. However, for higher frequency routes, budget travellers are better off just showing up at the station and taking the next available bus - it’s slight cheaper to pay cash directly to the bus driver.2026-08-30

More tickets than sitting places had been sold - even though we had tickets booked the day before the trip my husband sit on the stairs cos the driver sold tickets to people came straight from the Street.

Also the A/C stopped working 30 minutes into a 4 hour drive and people were put in the middle of the isle with luggage. 197|2802026-08-12

  • reviews1★The vehicle provided was a elderly minibus, which was severely overcrowded, resulting in several passengers having to stand throughout the journey. The seatbelts were non-functional, posing a safety concern. While air conditioning was available, it was leaking and operated inconsistently. The bus was scheduled to stop at the central bus station in Himarë before proceeding to Vlorë; however, this stop was omitted, requiring passengers to disembark outside the city. Tickets purchased online were priced 2 euros higher per person compared to those bought directly from the driver. Although we successfully traveled from Sarandë to Himarë, that was the only favorable aspect of the experience.2025-08-06

When we dropped off in Himare (all the people on the bus) it was a 15min walk to the town in the hot sun only to find the bus parked in town (seems ridiculous the entire bus had to walk to where the bus went anyways). We unfortunately will not book again via Gjirafa and have now rented a car instead of taking anymore busses.2026-06-17

  • reviews1★Really frustrating experience. We got off the ferry from Corfu, and went to the “departure location”, only to be told to scan a QR code for the real location of the bus… which was another 15 mins by taxi to get to. This made us miss the bus. If you have a “departure location” on the ticket, it would be god to flag if this is actually where the bus is leaving from?2026-07-21
  • reviews1★Our experience with Gjirafa was horrible. We booked a bus a day in advance with ‘guaranteed seats’ in the morning and arrived only 10 minutes early due to a delayed taxi and intense traffic, thinking that we would be fine. When arriving to the station we asked staff where our bus was and they said it was full and we couldn’t get on it. We managed to get to the ticket office where they also confirmed it was full and leaving. Still 5 minutes before scheduled time. We tried to contact via email and WhatsApp but didn’t have any luck. Had to book another bus costing more money to make up and there was certainly no refund for us. We unfortunately also booked transport back to sarande with Gjirafa when our bus back was 1 hour late. Came at 20:40 instead of 19:40. And we were even there at 19:10 as it recommends to get there 30mins prior. I understand that traffic and incidents occur that would force a bus to be delayed but one hour and no update or confirmation that it was coming was just horrendous. Glad we don’t have to use this platform again.2026-08-05
  • reviews1★The bus station indicated on the ticket was completely different from the actual departure point. When we arrived at the station shown on our ticket, they told us we had to take a taxi to another location. When we finally got there, the bus wasn’t even there, so we had to wait about 1 hour and 30 minutes. We received no refund and had to pay the same amount again in cash. The staff were also very rude and unhelpful. It honestly felt like a scam. I strongly recommend paying directly on the spot and not booking online.2026-08-19

  • reviews1★reported thisDear Girafa Travel Team, I am writing to make a formal complaint about the transport service I booked through Girafa Travel today. My experience could not have been worse. I booked my ticket with “bus” operator Diamant Travel ,and every passenger was charged an additional €3 check-in fee, although nobody explained what this fee was for. We were then taken to an old van that was literally falling apart. It was filthy, had no air conditioning, the seats were torn, and the vehicle was clearly in terrible mechanical condition. One of the passengers had grease all over his hands while seated in the vehicle. I have photographs documenting its condition. Unsurprisingly, the van broke down. Then it broke down again. And then a third time. At the moment I am writing this email, I am stranded on the side of a road in the middle of nowhere. I have had no choice but to hire a private taxi for €270 to take me to Budva because I no longer feel safe continuing this journey. This trip has been a complete nightmare. I have lost an entire day of my holiday, spent hours stranded on the roadside, with no proper facilities, desperately needing a bathroom, wondering whether this unsafe vehicle would ever reach its destination. I am requesting: A full refund of my ticket. A refund of the €3 check-in fee. Reimbursement of the money I will pay for the taxi I hired a than I cancelled when he was 17 min to the spot and a minivan arrived to replace the broken one. I have photographs of the vehicle and evidence of what happened. I am also seriously considering taking legal action against all parties responsible for putting passengers in such an unsafe situation. I chose Girafa Travel because I believed it was a trustworthy company, and until now I had confidence in your services. I sincerely hope this incident is an isolated case, but I now expect you to take full responsibility and resolve this matter promptly. To get worse the eSIm card doesn’t work. Yesterday in Albania I downloaded but obviously didn’t work because I wasn’t in Montenegro. now I am in Montenegro and say that the card has expired! I am very unhappy!2026-08-06

  • reviews1★We tried to find an email to get some further information on this, but we booked a bus from Himare to Tirana airport. We had a self transfer from north and south terminal to central, except our bus was delayed by 2 hours. This resulted in us missing our connecting bus and none of the drivers offered us any help or advice, nor was there any information online. This resulted in us having to pay additionally to get to the airport and we missed our flight and had to pay an additional fee. We were very disappointed and stressed and don’t think we’d feel comfortable using you again as there was no compensation.2026-08-11

It's not normal to arrive at 3:30 pm when the initial arrival time on the website was 2:30 pm.

  • reviews2★I almost missed my flight because we arrived at 3:50pm instead of 2:30pm - almost 1h and a half late, with no explanation. There was almost no traffic so that’s not the reason. The driver took a 20min break, I don’t know if it was planned or not. Also he was listening to loud music and wasted time talking to friends at some of the stops. It was very stressful.2026-08-31
  • reviews3★Miredita, Udhetova me sherbyesin tuaj nga Himara ne Tirane, mengjesin e dates 20.07.25. Disa sugjerime: 1. Autobuzi nuk kishte asnje sinjalistike qe tregova agjencine, itinerarin apo destinacionin. Vetem pasi hipa ne te dhe fola me stafin, me konfirmuan qe isha sakte edhe pse ishim nisur tashme! 2. Mberritem rreth nje ore me vone se orari zyrtar!! 3. AC i autobuzit ishte ne nivele ftohjeje, kjo e thene edhe nga bashkeudhetaret afer. Do thoja qe stafi ishte i sjellshem dhe dhenia e mjetit e kujdesshme ne pergjithesi.2025-07-21

We eventually got told there was a new bus terminal and had to use a taxi to get there as we had very large bags. We booked online tickets (in Australia) and no one had a record of them, except us. The bus was very old, dirty and very hot with poor air conditioning. If you can improve your communication for tourists, it would be very helpful. Thank you 🙂2026-08-27

5 riders report the air-conditioning did not work or worked poorly on this route. This is a comfort problem on a 2.5-hour journey that needs repair to keep passengers from choosing taxis instead.

  • reviews1★Bus stop was not where indicated on my ticket and I missed my bus. Had to take a taxi to Tirana for 150 euro.2025-03-25
  • reviews1★Bus was not there. They said it left at 16:00.2025-04-20
  • reviews1★I tried to call your wa number but nobody answer because i did not found the start station in vlora. For that reason i have been forced to go to tirana by a taxi. A very bad service2025-05-14
  • reviews1★My experience was very negative, as upon arriving at the terminal in Tirana, the driver of the Tirana - Vlore route had no idea about the purchase made online, there was no identification on the bus or any indication of the company. I had to ask several people and in the end, I was able to board the Tirana - Vlore bus, but the driver had many doubts about the validity of the purchase. The gjirafa travel website offered me the option to buy a return ticket to Tirana for 16:30, and I arrived at the Vlore bus station at 16:10, but the drivers of other buses told me that the last bus from Vlore to Tirana had left at 16:00 and that there were no more. Therefore, the information on the gjirafa site does not reflect reality. I had to return to Tirana by taxi, spending three times more than the cost of the bus tickets, as my flight was scheduled for that night from Tirana airport.2025-06-25
  • reviews1★Bus was cancelled, I was not notified.2025-08-01
  • reviews1★Booked a ticket but couldn't find and get on the bus2025-11-08
  • reviews1★You sold me a return ticket from Vlore to Tirana for a bus trip that doesn't exist - I ended up having to randomly book a hotel here because the buses that go back to Tirana stop running by 4 pm (or earlier) and you sold me a ticket for one that leaves at 4:30. I also ended up having to buy a toothbrush, toothpaste, a phone charger, etc., in addition to food - ended up spending like €40 I hadn't planned on beside the €7 for the ticket back. Will you people be reimbursing me for all this? I'm wearing the same clothing I did on the way over here because obviously I have nothing else to wear. I would not have bothered trying to visit this town if I knew it'd end up being a total fiasco like this, and even though the town is nice overall the experience was obviously a bad one. I will never buy bus tickets through you guys again and will be telling everyone about the ordeal I ended up enduring because of you.2026-02-10
  • reviews1★İ would not recommend this transport service to anyone. There was no air conditioning, the seats were very cramped, there were too many passengers, and the bus stopped at every station. The drivers did not speak English. It was the worst travel experience I have ever had.2026-06-25

  • reviews1★I paid for a ticket and also paid an additional fee to change the departure time. However, I was not allowed to board because, according to the staff, my ticket was not valid. I called the customer service offices to try to resolve the issue, but unfortunately no one was able to help me. I paid for both the ticket and the time change, so I would like an explanation as to why I was denied boarding and I request a refund for the amount I paid.2026-08-29
  • reviews2★The bus didn't come for us as return. Even if we were at the bus stop 30 mins before and waited for it ofr 2 hours. Since it was the last bus we had to go by taxi.2026-07-09
  • reviews3★Things to improve : my journey to vlore was late by 1 hour. There was no marker or logo to identify the bus. return journey, bus was early to depart. I would still use the bus, but would help if the following are improved : - make it easy to identify the bus - punctuality2025-04-22
  • reviews3★The service from Gifada was great, easy and we took the bus no problem from Tiranë to Vlore- the bus itself was the problem. My 13 year old son had to sit in the front with a broken seat belt, mine was not working either. Cheap, easy to use but not the safest though that may be bus travel in Albania and not Gifada’s fault.2025-05-12
  • reviews3★The bus pick up/drop off location in Vlorë is missing. I have no idea where to meet my bus tomorrow. Also the transfer from the airport bus location to the Vlorë - north/south - bus location is impossible. No instruction or accommodation whatsoever - especially with luggage. I took a taxi and figured it out.2026-04-21
  • reviews3★It was very confusing, the bus left 20 minutes earlier than what the ticket said and didn't even drive to the city.2026-07-15
  • reviews3★Vlore to Tirana airport, bus terminated at a station NOWHERE near the airport ! Cost twice as much to reach proper destination.2026-08-30
  • reviews4★A ticket is not needed. They let anyone on the bus and this ticket does not guarantee a seat. If one bus is full you can go on the next one, so no, the system is not yet working for Albania. Until you assign seat numbers and staff understand that you bought your ticket online and you get a seat before others that do not have a ticket, i won't use this again.2025-05-08

  • reviews3★Didn't need to purchase a ticket online for bus to Vlorë, easy to get one at the 'terminal'. Bus driver was quite confused by online ticket when asked for payment.2025-06-29
  • reviews3★We couldn't find the bus at the Tirana bus station, and it wasn't clear to us whether we got on the right bus in the end, but the driver took us and accepted our tickets. We traveled in a minibus, which was quite cramped, with little ventilation and no air conditioning. There were no seat belts at our seats either. The journey took 3 hours, and we stopped once at a gas station.2025-07-26
  • reviews3★I bought two tickets in a single booking with a self-transfer, but the transfer time was far too short. We couldn’t make the connection, so we had to pay for another bus ourselves. I also don’t understand why tickets are sold from Tirana Airport to Tirana Center when the next departure is from a different station, which requires traveling almost back toward the airport. This makes the connection very confusing and unrealistic. On the positive side, the eSIM worked perfectly without any issues. The support team also responded quickly and helped me change my email address. Thanks to them for the fast and friendly assistance!2026-07-18

  • reviews1★reported thisWe were the only two people who brought a ticket n advance but had to sit on the floor for 4 hours. The driver was the unfriendliness person we meet during our hole trip.2026-06-07
  • reviews1★reported thisLate departure Rude staff Over crowded bus Bus stopped for petrol after 30 minutes No A/C We decided to get a taxi instead2026-06-15
  • reviews3★reported thisBus was extremely hot for the first hour of our journey - there wasnt any a/c. I was soaked through my t shirt was wet for the entire journey - extremely uncomfortable. The driver took us to the petrol station and our journey was delayed by over half an hour, purely because the bus wasnt fuelled before we had boarded - this could and should have been done beforehand, when the bus was at the bus station for the hour before we departed. Staff were discourteous and rude to us regarding stop offs. They nearly drove off without passengers on a couple of occaisions2024-09-07

  • reviews1★terrible conditions, a bus without air conditioning at +30. and also instead of the stated 2.5 the journey took 5 hours2025-06-15
  • reviews1★Never take this bus!! The bus took on 4 passenger above capcity, had no aicon, our luggage had to stand on the floor between the seats, with people sitting on it, and the driver stoped multiple times to talk to people along the road. Amongst those stops where stops to possible take upon more passengers, although we were already far above the buses seat capacity. The driver was on his phone the whole time, drove too far and had to turn around, and gave no information in enligsh. In all the drive took 4 hours, instead of 3 hours, and the bus even started drive before the scheduled departure. In all the dribe was horrible and unsafe. If possible, our group would have given it zero stars, and recommend choosing a taxi. The only positive part of this drive was sick and horrific story we now have to tell our friends and future kids.2025-07-02

De plus, ils vous disent de venir 30 minutes avant le départ, ce qui est inutile, surtout quand le bus part avec un retard de 15 minutes2024-09-05
  • reviews3★Booking and payment via the website was very easy. We went from Tirana to Dhërmi. I don’t know if Gjirafa always uses the Olgeno bus company but we started almost an hour later than indicated and the journey also took an hour longer. Set aside some time to get to your destination.2024-09-14

  • reviews1★reported thisMy bus from Shkoder to Himare arrived 2 hours later than indicated and I was not dropped at the indicated drop off location either. My ticket clearly stated Himare bus station as the drop off location and the driver stopped outside a hostel which was a 20 minute walk from the bus station and therefore a 30 minute walk from where I was staying. A very rude and arrogant man then got on telling me and everyone else we need to get off and that we should’ve asked the travel company (ie: you) to be more specific about where we were going to be dropped and he was extremely aggressive about it. Eventually we got him and the actual driver to drop us 5 minutes further into the centre as we were nowhere near. However this was still not the designated drop off spot and we were all extremely unimpressed. I would have booked a different ticket had I known it was going to drop me nowhere near the centre/bus station.2025-07-17
  • reviews1★reported thisRude assistant driver and a schedhuled bus that didnt exist.2025-07-19
  • reviews2★reported thisRide with Riviera tours from Tirana to Himare – absolutely horrific. It was 35-40 degrees inside the bus without the possiblity to open windows. It was close to panic mode I'd say, as we knew we'd be sitting in those tiny seats for 3-4 hours with almost no oxygen and sweat literally pouring down everyone's faces. Also, the driver was both rude and didn't have any pull to be of help – only to collect people's money as quickly as possible. At one point I also tried calling Giraja, but got a snappy, unhelpful response to "just go!" when asking about where the bus would actually leave from, as this was not exactly clear on the ticket or the internet. The return bus with Olgeno as the bus operator was way better. The bus was cooler, more spacious and the driver was helpful, albeit "Balkan intense". It was still not clear though where the bus would be picking us up in Himare as the ticket, internet searches and people at our destination all said different things. After a call directly to Olgeno, that was clarified by a helpful representative. To note: the return bus was delayed by 40 minutes or so. Overall experience with Gjirafa would've been better if they actually tried to help you when you call them, if they would greatly discount the ticket price when they know they have a bus that is dangerous to travel in (especially as a non-acclimatized tourist), and properly inform the passengers of how drop-off and pick-up works in Albania – this should not have to be discovered at the very last minute. Would not book with Gjirafa again, but go straight to the bus operators that are reputable or rent my own car.2025-08-19
  • reviews2★reported thisDriver was unpleasant. There needs to be more space/less people booked on, and the AC needs to be better, it broke and stopped at one point.2026-07-11

  • reviews1★Pire expérience de voyage de ma vie, bus qui pu, pas propre, pas en bon état du tout. Je paie 15 euros une place pour passer le trajet debout, serrer pendant 4h alors qu'on me garantissait une place assise !!!! Lorsqu'on nous a pris les valises pour les mettre dans le coffre, le monsieur qui s'en occupais les a jeter comme si moi valises n'avais aucune valeur. Je déconseille cette société, a fuir!!!!!!!!2025-06-23

  • reviews1★Bus had 4h delay. Olgeno Travels is the name. This is the worst company I have ever dealt with. You should probably stop working with them. I will never use your service again.2026-08-13
  • reviews2★Aren't the buses too old for road traffic? Are they still safe? We traveled four times. On the first trip, there were problems with the seats. We were given tickets in Albanian. No one understood that the seats were assigned. No one explained it. It was chaos. Please translate the tickets into English or have someone explain it to the passengers. On the last trip, we arrived late at the airport. The bus driver picked up hitchhikers on the road and dropped them off where they wanted to go. That's not OK. Luckily, we made it to our return flight on time. This needs to be better organized.2025-09-16
  • reviews2★We traveled from Himara to Tirana. There was no signage for the bus stop anywhere in Himara. We arrived an hour later than expected. The destination bus station was on the outskirts of Tirana, so we had to take another bus to the city center. This could definitely be improved.2025-09-21

  • reviews4★The online booking process was quick and straightforward, which I really appreciated. However, I encountered several issues during the actual travel experience. When I presented my ticket to the drivers, it took quite a bit of explaining before they accepted it, which made things stressful. On one of my trips, I was even directed to the wrong bus for the second leg of the journey and ended up having to pay a second fare. Additionally, the departure times listed during booking didn’t match the actual schedules—for example, I booked a 7 PM bus, but the operator informed me that only a 3 PM bus was running that day (which I only found out after calling the tour operator just in case). Overall, while the platform is easy to use, better coordination and communication with local bus operators is definitely needed to ensure a smoother travel experience.2025-06-01
  • reviews4★My last bus was an hour late to pick us up and we were not notified but also the bus driver drove so slow that it added another hour to our trip.2025-06-09

  • reviews4★Everything was great but .. your website said the journey would take 3 hours and 10 minutes. It actually took over 5 hours. Also .. the bus was overcrowded as far as Vlore. I bought a ticket in advance to guarantee a seat but that wasn’t working.2026-07-26

  • reviews1★reported thisIt was terible in sarande they gave us the wrong ticket to Tiranë instead of durres. So we missed our city and had two take a taxi from Tiranë to durres the bus driver was very rude. We had two buy two taxis for over 10000 lek to get to our hotel and back + the fee for the buss. Terrible experience and service2026-07-12
  • reviews1★reported thisI bought tickets for two trips. The first was from Vlorë to Sarandë. We arrived an hour early when it was 36 degrees, but the driver wouldn’t let us board the bus so he could seat people first. If you paid him extra, you could get on and have a seat; otherwise, he wanted us to sit on a folding stool in the aisle. He treated us very rudely. The minibus was packed, with people standing; it was going very slowly, and the trip took 4 hours—not to mention the lack of safety, of course. The second trip was from Saranda to Durres. Everything was going well until we reached the Durres/Tirana turnoff, and he dropped us all off at the highway exit, with nothing around us. Instead of dropping us off at our destination, which was the station.2026-07-23
  • reviews2★reported thisYou should make the address for ticket check-in highly visible and not just “check-in at the Trans Butrinti office”, which is a different place from the New bus station from where to get the bus. Driver was rude and cannot communicate in English some simple words2026-08-14
  • reviews3★reported thisThe bus was overbooked, the seat numbers we were given didn't exist, there ended up being one young lady having to sit on a stool in the aisle, another young lady on a step at the front, my friend in the spare driver's seat. The driver then dropped us off on the motorway junction for Durres instead of driving into the bus station 500 meters away so we had to walk up the motorway, it also meant I almost missed my stop as I was sat on the very back seat and couldn't see what was going on. The driver then shouted at me aggressively when I told him I still needed to get off and needed my luggage. Very poor experience.2026-07-01

  • reviews1★We were dropped at a different Location - booking via Website was more expensive than in the ticket Office2025-06-10
  • reviews1★The guy at the ticket office said to get on the same bus as Tirana, but the bus driver didn't drop me at the Durres bus stop as planned. When I asked him he said he is going to Tirana and then stopped and dropped me at a service station in Durres! I had to arrange a taxi to take me to where I was staying. Very unprofessional and not a nice experience for a solo female traveller.2025-06-10

  • reviews1★Hello, we have an issue Me and 2 other guys bought tickets from Saranda to Durres from you. We told 4 times to the driver, that we go to DURES, not TIRANA and we have electronic tickets to DURRES PLEPAT STATION, not Tirana. Nevertheless the driver forgot and now we are going straight to Tirana. We would like to get our money back - all 3 of us. Our booking ID: I8kayVpd 2 people, vgOAN2rl - 1 person. Let me know what kind of payment is suitable for you - we have Czech card or Revolut. Thank you.2025-07-16
  • reviews1★Awful!! The worst experience in Albania. Very hot bus!2025-08-20
  • reviews1★A catastrophic journey! According to the schedule, we were only supposed to change buses once, but we ended up changing three times. At the first transfer point, there was no bus or company waiting for us, so we had to travel another 30 minutes to reach a different bus. Then, in the middle of the road, we had to switch buses again just to get to Ferizaj. The organization was extremely poor, and the whole trip was stressful. However, I would like to mention that the staff and the drivers were very friendly, helpful, and did their best to assist us throughout the journey. Despite their efforts, the overall experience was very disappointing due to the poor organization. If it were possible, I wouldn’t give this service even one star.2026-07-23
  • reviews2★We bought a ticket to the airport, we tried to change bus in Durres as the ticket said, busdriver said no, and then he only took us to the bus terminal. We had to take a taxi to the airport.2025-06-17
  • reviews2★We bought our tickets online and it said seat guaranteed . Only to be told at the station that the bus we had booked on was full and we had to get the next bus. Meaning we missed an appointment we were travelling to.2025-09-15
  • reviews2★I had my travel from Sarandë to Durres. The driver left us on the road far from any public transport or taxis somewhere near Durrës. At the gas station, he said we should go off if we plan to go to Durrës. Random strangers from the gas station ordered me a taxi and I had to pay 30€ extra for the taxi to Durrës. It was awful experience. When I buy a ticket to Durrës I want to finish my journey at the bus station or public place. Not in the middle of the highway.2025-09-29
  • reviews2★Traveling from Sarande to Durres driver dropped us on the road, and not at the bus station. Customer service was not helpful..2026-04-24
  • reviews2★Booked a coach from Saranda to durres for 10.45am. Despite getting there for 10.15am, there was a long queue to "check-in" despite having online tickets. We were then put on a 11am coach that ended up leaving 11.30am. Super tight seating/limited legroom that was quite uncomfortable. We had a 15min service stop about halfway into the journey which was helpful. However coach driver did not stop in durres and kept on driving towards Tirana. We had to keep asking him to stop while he was on the road leaving durres to avoid the long journey from Tirana back to durres. He eventually let us off the highway which wasn't an ideal place (!) and thankfully our airbnb host had our location to pick us up (our host mentioned that he has had 3 other guests of his face similar experiences with this coach). The coach driver spoke limited English so I'd recommend making sure colleagues at check-in make it explicitly clear to the driver that they need to stop at the locations you've paid to get off at.2026-07-18
  • reviews2★The initial journey was fine. It left on time and included a stop to afford passengers time for a comfort break. However, the journey was ruined when the bus stopped on the main road prior to Durrës. The staff instructed my girlfriend and I to get off here. On the main road with no pavement. It was an extremely precarious situation. We did not know where we were, how far the walk to Durrës was and according to my phone at this time it was 37°C. We had to walk up a slip road with our suitcases avoiding traffic before we reached a pavement. I was left furious as they exposed my girlfriend and I to an unnecessary risk. We paid to go to Durrës, assumably to a bus terminal, not dumped at the side of a motorway. I felt scammed and did not get what I paid for.2026-08-10

  • reviews3★Hi, I’d like to share some feedback about my recent trip with your bus service. The departure from Saranda was perfectly on time, which I really appreciated. However, my ticket stated that the drop-off point was Durres Station, but in reality the bus stopped before entering Durres. This wasn’t the most convenient location - when I checked the map, I saw it was about 6 km from my hotel. Some other passengers also seemed confused and unsure where exactly we were. I later checked my ticket again and saw that the stop mentioned there matches where we were dropped off, but it would be much more convenient if the bus could go a bit further into Durres, closer to the city centre or the main bus station. Thank you for your attention, and I hope this feedback helps improve the experience for future travelers.2025-10-06
  • reviews3★it were right gud2025-10-19
  • reviews3★From Sarande: It is not clear that you have to go to the ticket office to get a physical ticket or you won’t get a seat number. You literally have to arrive 30 minutes before or your seat could get sold to someone else.2026-07-08
  • reviews3★The experience was poor, but not due to girafa- it was the local bus experience that was poor. The bus was on time leaving but arrived 30 minutes late at the destination. It was full and very little leg room, no charging for phones or toilet. Even small backpacks did not fit overhead. The seat in front of me was broken so reclined the whole time and my knees were bruised by the end. I'm only short, so I've no idea how a tall person would cope. We were dropped on the side of a busy dual carriage way at a petrol station, not a bus stop. No info given for where we were. We had to pay a taxi to get us into the city even though the bus was meant to take us there. The Girafa booking experience was easy, but the partner local bus company they use is poor.2026-07-28

  • reviews3★The points of pick up and drop off were both wrong, Thats huge for me as a solo traveler to know where I’m going to be dropped off, it was very stressful being dropped off on the side of the motorway when my ticket told me the bus station. Other than that the driver was safe and the ride was really pleasant2026-08-26

  • reviews4★The bus did not stop at the designated bus station in Durres. It stopper 500 meters beyond. The driver did not make clear it was the stop for Durres, so we did not get out and drove on to Tirana where we had to take a taxi back to Durres for 35 euro’s, and 1,5 hrs later.2025-09-30

  • reviews1★reported thisThe bus was very small, it didn’t have any air conditioning (in August, with 30 degress), the driver was looking at the phone all the time. The price justifies the experience.2025-08-06

Le chauffeur très désagréable ne s occupe pas du tout de ses clients pas de climatisation pendant 5 h de route 42 degrés extérieur avec 3 enfant dans le bus 50 à l intérieur! 1 arrêt le chauffeur descend ne dit rien et va boire son café sans rien dire à personne !

À la présentation de notre billet à l arrivée à Vlora il nous fait signe de dégager car nous avons un billet électronique et pas de cash !!!!! Dommage!!!! À éviter absolument !!!!!!2026-08-02
  • reviews1★We had two different bus rides (Tirana-Vlorë and Vlorë-Sarandë) and we were glad to reach our destinations alive. Horrible and dangerous old buses. According to Gjirafa, the ride to Sarandë would be 2 hours. In reality, it took us 5(!) hours to get there.2025-04-24

  • reviews1★Als wir vor Ort in Albanien waren, gab es den Bus nicht, keiner konnte uns weiterhelfen, den Ort auf dem Ticket, wo der Bus abfahren sollte, konnte man nicht anklicken. Der Hilfesupport hat nicht geantwortet. Nicht zu empfehlen.2026-06-25
  • reviews1★Very late, let us off nowhere near the city center or other bus stops, bad airconditioning and bad leg space.2026-07-25
  • reviews1★Bus was completely overloaded only half Seat2026-08-07
  • reviews1★The worst. They oversell their buses so people have to sit on the floor. Most recently, they oversold a bus so it left early because it was full. I had purchased a set on that bus almost two weeks in advance and was left without transportation to my next destination.2026-08-17
  • reviews2★The bus departed half an hour late. The air conditioning wasn't working, and we were hot. We took unplanned detours, further extending the journey.2025-08-20
  • reviews2★Wasn’t clear when booking that I could not book airport bus. I searched for Tirana airport and when I got “Tirana terminal” it wasn’t clear this wasn’t the airport2025-09-08

  • reviews3★Didn't need to purchase a ticket online for bus to Vlorë, easy to get one at the 'terminal'. Bus driver was quite confused by online ticket when asked for payment.2025-06-29
  • reviews3★We couldn't find the bus at the Tirana bus station, and it wasn't clear to us whether we got on the right bus in the end, but the driver took us and accepted our tickets. We traveled in a minibus, which was quite cramped, with little ventilation and no air conditioning. There were no seat belts at our seats either. The journey took 3 hours, and we stopped once at a gas station.2025-07-26
  • reviews3★the first bus from tirana airport to tirana station was a very good travel and very comfort bute the next bus from tirana to vlore was a katastrophe it was warm not enough room to breath am we were realy happy when it was over..2026-06-27
  • reviews3★I bought two tickets in a single booking with a self-transfer, but the transfer time was far too short. We couldn’t make the connection, so we had to pay for another bus ourselves. I also don’t understand why tickets are sold from Tirana Airport to Tirana Center when the next departure is from a different station, which requires traveling almost back toward the airport. This makes the connection very confusing and unrealistic. On the positive side, the eSIM worked perfectly without any issues. The support team also responded quickly and helped me change my email address. Thanks to them for the fast and friendly assistance!2026-07-18

  • reviews4★It was relatively hassle free but the bus was old and stinky2026-03-03
  • reviews4★Very affordable trip and quite quick with only 1 stop. However, drop off location is at very edge of Vlore not near the beach so they want you to book a taxi from drop off location.2026-04-30

  • reviews1★reported thisIt was not a “bus”, rather a “mini-bus”. And it was extremely old, crowded, filthy, and hot inside. The driver did not open air-conditioning. It smell awful. One of the worst journeys ever.2025-09-15
  • reviews1★reported thisIt was not a bus but rather a van where the driver constantly smoked and the AC didn’t work. The ride was late, made unplanned stops and in general was a chaotic, stressful experience. Do not recommend Classic Company.2026-06-10

  • reviews1★The bus was canselled without any infomation at al. The next bus was smal and owerbooked. Will not book this again!2025-04-21
  • reviews1★It was terrible. The seat was very narrow, especially for taller people. I was also sitting above the wheel, which made my legs sit at an awkward angle. My knees were pressed against the seat in front of me the entire way, and after 30 minutes, it became extremely painful. That made a 3-hour ride feel incredibly long.2025-05-25
  • reviews1★They're selling more tickets than they have seats. And they're not buses, but small vans with limited legroom and barely any room for luggage. In our van, about 30% more passengers wanted to ride than was possible. The driver took everyone away, saying it wasn't his problem.2025-07-09
  • reviews1★I had to pay 30 Macedonian denars for a printed ticket, and the driver asked me for extra money for my luggage.2025-07-27
  • reviews1★The bus had almost no leg room and broken seats. It was a really uncomfortable journey, especially as I was with my 78 year old father.2025-08-31
  • reviews1★The bus seemed as if it had not seen maintenance since the fall of the Soviet Union. There was no air-conditioning for majority of the trip, and the driver stopped at least 6 times to pick up random passengers. Overall, I would simply pick Flixbus next time.2025-09-26

  • reviews1★there were no buses for my way back to skopje. So the bus ticket I bought from Ohrit to Skopje was not valid. They said the bus has stopped 4 months ago at that time with the mentioned company and I had to buy new tickets on the spot with another company. Could you refund me?2026-04-14
  • reviews1★Bought ticket but staff member made me pay cash2026-05-08
  • reviews1★Dear Sir/Madam, I purchased an online ticket for the Gazmend Turist bus service from Ohrid to Skopje on 17 May 2026. Trip details are as follows: • Company: Gazmend Turist • Departure station: Ohrid Station • Arrival station: Skopje Station • Departure time: 18:00 • Arrival time: 21:00 • Passenger count: 1 • Total amount paid: 29.70 € Although I arrived at the designated departure location on time, I was informed that the bus was not departing from there. Due to incorrect or insufficient information regarding the departure point, I was unable to find the correct bus and therefore could not use my ticket. As this issue was caused by misinformation, I kindly request a full refund for the unused ticket. I would appreciate your prompt response regarding this matter. Thank you in advance. Best regards, Buse Yalçın2026-05-18

  • reviews2★Hello, I booked Podgorica-Pristina for Sunday, Sep 14,9:00 but now I get a confirmation for Saturday 13th. I tried once more to book 14th, but it didn't work, after confirming my booking, I was only asked to buy an eSim card, but nothinh happened, no confirmation for 14th! Please tell me quickly if there is a bus on Sunday or not. That was my bad experience. I never got an answer to my request, I had to leave Podgorica one day earlier and moreover I had to pay 3€ at the bus station, because they needed a printed copy of my ticket.2025-09-17
  • reviews2★The way to go was perfect. The way back was bad, because I wanted to change the departure time and that was not possible. I lost the money for the ticket. To be honest, the next time I will not choose Gjirafa.2026-05-06
  • reviews2★I was asked to pay more fees at the station. I would have appreciated a heads-up if that’s just protocol. And also, the bus terminated at a different location, which resulted in 28 min walk (with heavy suitcases) instead of 12 min.2026-05-25

  • reviews1★reported thisGood morning, despite the hot weather, the driver repeatedly turned off the air conditioning even after being asked several times to keep it on. When I pointed it out, he laughed together with another lady and spoke loudly with her for most of the journey. Thank you.2026-03-06
  • reviews2★reported thisThe bus from Tirana to Himare was supposed to take 2 hours and 40 minutes, but instead it took 4 hours and 30 minutes. I understand that buses can’t always arrive exactly on time, but that is a massive difference and it ruined our plans for the evening. Also, the air conditioning was almost non-existent, which was a shame given that it was 32 degrees outside. It felt like I was boiling during those hours. I didn’t give a one-star rating only because I appreciated how easy it was to buy the bus tickets online, and in the end, I did reach my final destination safely.2025-08-04

  • reviews1★There were no seats available when we arrived. The driver moved items left to reserve seats when we insisted. The same happened to friends travelling in the same bus. There were unpleasant arguments over seats. There were not enough seats for the number of passengers. The bus went with four passengers standing which is dangerous. I can no longer trust girafa to book tickets.2026-05-01

  • reviews1★Dear Sir or Madam, I tried to prepare well for my trip from Munich to Himare, but I learned otherwise at Tinara Airport: planning and preparation in the usual sense seems to be a waste of time and money here. It frustrated me greatly, and still frustrates me, that I still don't understand what and where the South North Terminal is. Likewise, I still don't understand why a bus company's journey from the airport to Himare doesn't start at the South North Terminal, as advertised (which apparently doesn't even exist), but rather at a different, very distant location, which I can only reach by using another bus company, which I found thanks to some kind people. I thought I had arrived half an hour early, right on time at 12:30, so I could take the bus to Himare at 1 p.m. (the journey from the airport to Himare was listed as taking four hours). However, it took another hour before we stopped at the designated rest area, where we were informed that the bus we had booked with Riviera Tours had already left. In hindsight, this made sense, but I was also perplexed and very surprised. We were also told that we would need to buy another ticket, as we would now be traveling with a different bus company. Unfortunately, we couldn't withdraw any cash from the ATMs at the airport, which had already confused and worried us. We ended up traveling with the other company. The journey took at least five and a half hours. During the trip, I kept wondering where I could get cash and how, or even if, this would affect our planned return trip on August 31st. It probably wouldn't work, because as the journey dragged on and on, I realized I had once again booked a return ticket in advance for nothing. We will never be able to make our flight back to Munich on August 31st at 12 pm if we take the bus from Himare at 5 am, since the journey back to the layover takes at least 5-6 hours, where the other bus company then takes us to the airport in about an hour. In total, I have paid over €64 for nothing for a bus journey that takes about 3 hours longer than expected and which we had based our flight booking on. The fact is, I now have to leave a day earlier and therefore have to pay for a night's accommodation in Himare for nothing, and I now have to find accommodation in Tirana so that I can make my flight on August 31st on time. All told, I now have approximately €150 in additional costs due to the missing information. I have not yet received a reply to the two emails I sent to gjirafa. Please explain to me what advantages this approach offers all parties involved, in case I haven't yet grasped the underlying rationale. Thank you for your understanding. Sylvia Daub2026-08-19

Angry frustrated driver shouting at passengers. Terrible driving as expected. AC was functional but still warm even at night. Arrived 1.5 hours late. Feedback to company: have higher standards.

  • reviews4★reported thisWe arrived on a ferry from Corfu and no one in the port area was able to tell us where the bus terminal was to go to Himare. We eventually got told there was a new bus terminal and had to use a taxi to get there as we had very large bags. We booked online tickets (in Australia) and no one had a record of them, except us. The bus was very old, dirty and very hot with poor air conditioning. If you can improve your communication for tourists, it would be very helpful. Thank you 🙂2026-08-27

  • reviews1★Dear Girafa Travel Team, I am writing to make a formal complaint about the transport service I booked through Girafa Travel today. My experience could not have been worse. I booked my ticket with “bus” operator Diamant Travel ,and every passenger was charged an additional €3 check-in fee, although nobody explained what this fee was for. We were then taken to an old van that was literally falling apart. It was filthy, had no air conditioning, the seats were torn, and the vehicle was clearly in terrible mechanical condition. One of the passengers had grease all over his hands while seated in the vehicle. I have photographs documenting its condition. Unsurprisingly, the van broke down. Then it broke down again. And then a third time. At the moment I am writing this email, I am stranded on the side of a road in the middle of nowhere. I have had no choice but to hire a private taxi for €270 to take me to Budva because I no longer feel safe continuing this journey. This trip has been a complete nightmare. I have lost an entire day of my holiday, spent hours stranded on the roadside, with no proper facilities, desperately needing a bathroom, wondering whether this unsafe vehicle would ever reach its destination. I am requesting: A full refund of my ticket. A refund of the €3 check-in fee. Reimbursement of the money I will pay for the taxi I hired a than I cancelled when he was 17 min to the spot and a minivan arrived to replace the broken one. I have photographs of the vehicle and evidence of what happened. I am also seriously considering taking legal action against all parties responsible for putting passengers in such an unsafe situation. I chose Girafa Travel because I believed it was a trustworthy company, and until now I had confidence in your services. I sincerely hope this incident is an isolated case, but I now expect you to take full responsibility and resolve this matter promptly. To get worse the eSIm card doesn’t work. Yesterday in Albania I downloaded but obviously didn’t work because I wasn’t in Montenegro. now I am in Montenegro and say that the card has expired! I am very unhappy!2026-08-06

  • reviews1★We tried to find an email to get some further information on this, but we booked a bus from Himare to Tirana airport. We had a self transfer from north and south terminal to central, except our bus was delayed by 2 hours. This resulted in us missing our connecting bus and none of the drivers offered us any help or advice, nor was there any information online. This resulted in us having to pay additionally to get to the airport and we missed our flight and had to pay an additional fee. We were very disappointed and stressed and don’t think we’d feel comfortable using you again as there was no compensation.2026-08-11

It's not normal to arrive at 3:30 pm when the initial arrival time on the website was 2:30 pm.

4 riders reported rude or aggressive driver behavior: one turned off air conditioning and laughed at complaints, one shouted at passengers, one drove recklessly, and one was described as rude when the bus arrived 20 minutes late. On a line where 11 of 27 reviews gave 4–5 stars, staff conduct problems risk losing trust among the customers most likely to book again.

  • reviews1★reported thisThe online platform was simple and easy. But at Tirana bus terminal, we arrived 2 hours earlier, went in the Albanian bus agency stall, showed the man our online tickets and he was kind, told us to go enjoy the mall and to leave our luggage there. 20 minutes before our journey, we returned, it was busier, we waited on the benches outside. A lady came asking if we were going to Montenegro and I confirmed. The first surprise, there wasn't a bus but a small van. Worse, there was no space for us. When I went in the satll again to ask what happened, the woman that was in there was very rude. Said we didn't let them know we were there. I showed her our tickets, showed her our names that were noted down by the man earlier on a piece of paper in front of her, told her we arrived early for this. She then proceeded to very rudely tell me to sit down. They began to discuss amongst themselves. I could see they were also very rude to another man who went there to buy tickets. In the end, they had to call for a private car to take us to Kotor, Montenegro. Also, the car was shaking in a weird way (I believe it was the alignment of the wheels on the back...), it had no seat belt. And also, we had to pay extra for the bags to go on the boot. Ridiculous. Our tickets had already being charged with fees, what were those then? Service? haha. I feel the joke was on us. Very bad experience overal.2026-06-01
  • reviews1★reported thisThere was no AC in the van. The driver would not roll down the windows all the way. It was over 40 degrees. The driver kept stopping for cigarettes.2026-06-29
  • reviews1★reported thisThe worst experience I have had in a long time. The bus took hours longer, super poorly organized. The travel office at the bus station in Tirana had the most obnoxious and rude staff that threatened not to let us on the bus simply because we asked about why we had to pay an extra fee "for the check in" in cash (and wanted to know where this was in writing). would never book again and will definitely inform everyone I know never to travel with this company. I would seriously want to demand a refund for this absurdly bad service.2026-08-26

  • reviews1★The journey was the worst and absolutely pathetic. First, they charged me £6 for the terminal and luggage fees. Then, instead of providing a proper bus, they provided a minibus without AC. The minibus broke down midway, and because of that, we arrived 5 hours late. Overall, it was a terrible experience. Don’t book bus ALB trans2026-08-08
  • reviews1★The car I was in broke down on the Tirana-Kotor route. I had to get out and arrange my own transport to the final destination.

Altogether a nightmare2026-07-12

  • reviews1★reported thisWe took the 2:00 pm bus from Berat Station to Gjirokastër today (16th of August 2025) and it was by far the most dangerous journey we have ever experienced. The driver’s behaviour was reckless and alarming - he overtook vehicles on blind bends, used his mobile phone while driving, took his hands off the wheel on winding roads. He narrowly missed hitting several pedestrians and nearly collided with multiple other vehicles while beeping at them almost non stop. We were at the front of the bus so we witnessed all of this. When we expressed our concerns, he responded with physical aggression towards us, which was extremely frightening. We are lucky to be alive after his driving. I honestly cannot stress to you enough how unsafe he was. He should not have a license let alone be driving a bus full of people. Take him off the roads for your future passengers and their wellbeing and safety!2025-08-16
  • reviews2★reported thisThe vehicle had no air conditioning or seatbelts; the driver was collecting cash from passengers because he needed to fill up with petrol, and subsequently stopped at least six times along the route to pick up and drop off passengers at random locations. An unpleasant and dangerous journey.2026-08-07

Después de preguntar por el parking dimos con un minibus que partiría hacia allí. Eran las 10:20. El conductor desconocía la compañía que ponía en nuestro billete. Nos indicaron que el siguiente. Cuando vino el siguiente nos dijeron que era el que se había ido. Solución vuelta a pagar. Parece que no ven con buenos ojos la forma de reservar vis web. Si trave.gjirafa es una empresa sería espero que sea reembolsado el importe de los billetes que fueron imposibles de canjear, usar.2025-09-11
  • reviews1★We booked two seats from Tirana to Berat for the 10.20am bus. When we got to the bus station and found that there was no 10.20 bus. Instead there was a full 10am bus. The driver squashed me in the front and my poor husband sat in the middle of the aisle on a portable cheap plastic stool for two hours of the trip. He got a seat when someone got off the bus 10 minutes short of reaching Berat. Otherwise he was on a free standing plastic stool with no backrest while the bus travelled on the bumpy road. We thought that by booking our seat online we would have two bus seats in a bus that was not overcrowded and enjoy the trip side by side. This in no way happened.2025-09-16

  • reviews3★We booked a travel from Shkodër to Tirana and then from Tirana to Berat. The first bus arrived too late in Tirana and then it was just chaos. At Tirana bus station nobody knew anything and we had to take another bus to Berat. Fortunately the bus drivers communicated with each other so that we didn‘t have to pay the second bus, but we had a lot of dicussions until everything was ok.2025-07-17
  • reviews3★there really is no way to tell where the bus will arrive when or if it will arrive at all which can be really stressful.2025-09-02
  • reviews3★Bus ride was fine. Driver was safe. But we made a reservation for 7:45am and told it was guaranteed seats. We arrived 7:15am at the bus station and told the 7:45am bus was full so we had to take the 8:30M bus. We were disappointed that guaranteed seating does not acutely mean that…2025-10-02
  • reviews4★sometimes we could have more information before and why we can't buy tickets online2025-07-27
  • reviews4★Bom serviço2025-08-05
  • reviews4★Using the website platform was really easy and it makes travelling in a foreign country so much easier knowing that transport can be booked in advance. It was a little tricky trying to find the actual bus we were to take as the South and North Station of Tirana must have had at least a hundred buses and maybe ten of them had 'Berat' signs on them. However, when we asked the local staff members at the entrance, they were able to point us in the general direction of the bus. It would be helpful if there was a way that GjirafaTravel could make it clear which bus we are taking to minimise stress and help create an easier "check in" experience. HOWEVER... we will be using GjirafaTravel for the remainder of our time in Albania!2025-08-14

On a line where 21 reviews gave 4-5 stars but 19 gave 1-2 stars, this safety issue directly pushes people toward our competitors or away from buses entirely.

  • reviews2★reported thisRide with Riviera tours from Tirana to Himare – absolutely horrific. It was 35-40 degrees inside the bus without the possiblity to open windows. It was close to panic mode I'd say, as we knew we'd be sitting in those tiny seats for 3-4 hours with almost no oxygen and sweat literally pouring down everyone's faces. Also, the driver was both rude and didn't have any pull to be of help – only to collect people's money as quickly as possible. At one point I also tried calling Giraja, but got a snappy, unhelpful response to "just go!" when asking about where the bus would actually leave from, as this was not exactly clear on the ticket or the internet. The return bus with Olgeno as the bus operator was way better. The bus was cooler, more spacious and the driver was helpful, albeit "Balkan intense". It was still not clear though where the bus would be picking us up in Himare as the ticket, internet searches and people at our destination all said different things. After a call directly to Olgeno, that was clarified by a helpful representative. To note: the return bus was delayed by 40 minutes or so. Overall experience with Gjirafa would've been better if they actually tried to help you when you call them, if they would greatly discount the ticket price when they know they have a bus that is dangerous to travel in (especially as a non-acclimatized tourist), and properly inform the passengers of how drop-off and pick-up works in Albania – this should not have to be discovered at the very last minute. Would not book with Gjirafa again, but go straight to the bus operators that are reputable or rent my own car.2025-08-19

  • reviews1★Eksperienca me e tmerrshme qe kam patur ndonjehere me autobuz qe kur mbaj mend. Ne nje autobuz 50 vendesh, shoferi ka hipur 70 veta qe e kane bere rrugen himare tirane ne kembe brenda ne autobuz. Njerez te ulur e te shtrire ne korridorin e autobuzit, me keq skishim provuar ndonjehere. Nje linje qe premton rrugen pa ndalesa dhe qe ndalon cdo 10 km per te ngarkuar pasagjere te tjere kur autobuzi eshte plot. Turp!2024-09-01
  • reviews1★Pire expérience de voyage de ma vie, bus qui pu, pas propre, pas en bon état du tout. Je paie 15 euros une place pour passer le trajet debout, serrer pendant 4h alors qu'on me garantissait une place assise !!!! Lorsqu'on nous a pris les valises pour les mettre dans le coffre, le monsieur qui s'en occupais les a jeter comme si moi valises n'avais aucune valeur. Je déconseille cette société, a fuir!!!!!!!!2025-06-23
  • reviews1★My bus from Shkoder to Himare arrived 2 hours later than indicated and I was not dropped at the indicated drop off location either. My ticket clearly stated Himare bus station as the drop off location and the driver stopped outside a hostel which was a 20 minute walk from the bus station and therefore a 30 minute walk from where I was staying. A very rude and arrogant man then got on telling me and everyone else we need to get off and that we should’ve asked the travel company (ie: you) to be more specific about where we were going to be dropped and he was extremely aggressive about it. Eventually we got him and the actual driver to drop us 5 minutes further into the centre as we were nowhere near. However this was still not the designated drop off spot and we were all extremely unimpressed. I would have booked a different ticket had I known it was going to drop me nowhere near the centre/bus station.2025-07-17

  • reviews1★Bus had 4h delay. Olgeno Travels is the name. This is the worst company I have ever dealt with. You should probably stop working with them. I will never use your service again.2026-08-13
  • reviews2★Aren't the buses too old for road traffic? Are they still safe? We traveled four times. On the first trip, there were problems with the seats. We were given tickets in Albanian. No one understood that the seats were assigned. No one explained it. It was chaos. Please translate the tickets into English or have someone explain it to the passengers. On the last trip, we arrived late at the airport. The bus driver picked up hitchhikers on the road and dropped them off where they wanted to go. That's not OK. Luckily, we made it to our return flight on time. This needs to be better organized.2025-09-16
  • reviews2★We traveled from Himara to Tirana. There was no signage for the bus stop anywhere in Himara. We arrived an hour later than expected. The destination bus station was on the outskirts of Tirana, so we had to take another bus to the city center. This could definitely be improved.2025-09-21

  • reviews4★Worked well, no issues with the information provided or payments. Needs more operators and suggestions for finding bus stops and2024-11-09
  • reviews4★The online booking process was quick and straightforward, which I really appreciated. However, I encountered several issues during the actual travel experience. When I presented my ticket to the drivers, it took quite a bit of explaining before they accepted it, which made things stressful. On one of my trips, I was even directed to the wrong bus for the second leg of the journey and ended up having to pay a second fare. Additionally, the departure times listed during booking didn’t match the actual schedules—for example, I booked a 7 PM bus, but the operator informed me that only a 3 PM bus was running that day (which I only found out after calling the tour operator just in case). Overall, while the platform is easy to use, better coordination and communication with local bus operators is definitely needed to ensure a smoother travel experience.2025-06-01
  • reviews4★My last bus was an hour late to pick us up and we were not notified but also the bus driver drove so slow that it added another hour to our trip.2025-06-09

  • reviews1★reported thisI took this “bus” from Skopje to Pristina and it was honestly a very disappointing experience. Instead of a proper bus, it was a small, old van, completely overcrowded. There were more passengers than seats, and at some point along the route, additional people got on and had to stand for the rest of the journey. There was essentially no proper luggage space. The van’s trunk was far too small for standard suitcases, so passengers were forced to keep their bags inside with them to make room for larger luggage at the back. This made an already cramped space even worse — there was barely any legroom, and having bags at our feet made the journey extremely uncomfortable. Seats were worn out, the conditions were poor, and the overall experience was far from what you would expect for this type of trip. On top of that, the driver was quite rude and dismissive. Honestly, the only positive was that the journey was just two hours. Overall, this is not a service I would recommend. If you're expecting a comfortable and smooth journey, this is definitely not it.2026-05-05

  • reviews3★Purchasing with girafa itself was good. But the bus driver of the bus time I booked the ticket for wouldn’t take online tickets because there wasn’t enough space for everyone who bought tickets so my friend and I had to wait for the next bus. If I had known that they turn people away with online tickets in those situations I would have just bought at the station. It also would have been helpful to know the bus of that specific line uses a smaller bus so there isn’t a lot of space and plan accordingly.2026-05-30
  • reviews3★Mini bus without room for personal packaging. There was a 3 person overbooking on the way out of Skopje, so everybody was over each other.

On this 37-review line, 3 riders reported the air-conditioning was very hot or leaking and broken, with buses overcrowded and uncomfortable. We need to fix cooling on Transbus Saranda's vehicles or expect more complaints on a line where 22 reviews rate it 4-5 stars.

  • reviews1★reported thisThe vehicle provided was a elderly minibus, which was severely overcrowded, resulting in several passengers having to stand throughout the journey. The seatbelts were non-functional, posing a safety concern. While air conditioning was available, it was leaking and operated inconsistently. The bus was scheduled to stop at the central bus station in Himarë before proceeding to Vlorë; however, this stop was omitted, requiring passengers to disembark outside the city. Tickets purchased online were priced 2 euros higher per person compared to those bought directly from the driver. Although we successfully traveled from Sarandë to Himarë, that was the only favorable aspect of the experience.2025-08-06
  • reviews1★reported thisWe did 2 trips - bus stops marked on google maps in wrong places. Supplier we used for one trip (Transbus) was terrible - very hot, seats reclined into knees of the person behind. When we dropped off in Himare (all the people on the bus) it was a 15min walk to the town in the hot sun only to find the bus parked in town (seems ridiculous the entire bus had to walk to where the bus went anyways). We unfortunately will not book again via Gjirafa and have now rented a car instead of taking anymore busses.2026-06-17

  • reviews1★Really frustrating experience. We got off the ferry from Corfu, and went to the “departure location”, only to be told to scan a QR code for the real location of the bus… which was another 15 mins by taxi to get to. This made us miss the bus. If you have a “departure location” on the ticket, it would be god to flag if this is actually where the bus is leaving from?2026-07-21
  • reviews1★Our experience with Gjirafa was horrible. We booked a bus a day in advance with ‘guaranteed seats’ in the morning and arrived only 10 minutes early due to a delayed taxi and intense traffic, thinking that we would be fine. When arriving to the station we asked staff where our bus was and they said it was full and we couldn’t get on it. We managed to get to the ticket office where they also confirmed it was full and leaving. Still 5 minutes before scheduled time. We tried to contact via email and WhatsApp but didn’t have any luck. Had to book another bus costing more money to make up and there was certainly no refund for us. We unfortunately also booked transport back to sarande with Gjirafa when our bus back was 1 hour late. Came at 20:40 instead of 19:40. And we were even there at 19:10 as it recommends to get there 30mins prior. I understand that traffic and incidents occur that would force a bus to be delayed but one hour and no update or confirmation that it was coming was just horrendous. Glad we don’t have to use this platform again.2026-08-05
  • reviews1★The bus station indicated on the ticket was completely different from the actual departure point. When we arrived at the station shown on our ticket, they told us we had to take a taxi to another location. When we finally got there, the bus wasn’t even there, so we had to wait about 1 hour and 30 minutes. We received no refund and had to pay the same amount again in cash. The staff were also very rude and unhelpful. It honestly felt like a scam. I strongly recommend paying directly on the spot and not booking online.2026-08-19

We had to stand in the middle of bus, around 14 of ys had to stand. The bus was overcrowded and very unsafe. It was so crowded that the door to bus wasn’t fully closed. Horrible experience. The driver did not care. Especially that are disabled with hearing loss.2025-07-16

These failures left tourists confused and unsafe, forced other passengers to help them switch buses, and damaged our reputation across social media and review sites.

The bus was old, the drivers were very rude they even smoke while driving , THEY OVERBOOKED THE BUS TO PODGORICA and they were 4 hours late so I arrived at 3 o’clock and this created further problems with my accommodation.

  • reviews1★Although this journey is advertised as “direct”, it is anything but. There are multiple stops and detours along the way, making the trip much longer and more confusing than expected. At one point, before the Montenegro border, all passengers were suddenly told to switch from the bus to a van, with no explanation. The staff did not speak English and provided no clear instructions, leaving passengers to figure things out among themselves. The lack of communication made the experience feel very disorganized and, at times, unsafe — especially since this was a night journey. At the border crossings, we had to get off the vehicle and stand on the roadside to present documents, again with no proper guidance. As a woman travelling alone, I did not feel safe, particularly given the circumstances and the lack of information throughout the trip. Overall, this is not a journey I would recommend. Clear communication, basic organization, and passenger safety should be a priority, and unfortunately, that was not the case here.2026-05-06

  • reviews1★We decided not to take the bus we had booked in Albania after our hotel manager kindly called the bus company to confirm whether it would arrive at the destination on time. We were told it would not - apparently, buses in Albania often stop for extended coffee breaks, leading to delays of over an hour in reaching the final destination. It’s unclear how bus companies are allowed to operate like this without accountability. We had to take an expensive taxi instead.2025-06-11

On top of that, we drove past Qeparo, and when we pointed it out, the driver said it wasn’t his problem because we hadn’t told him where to stop.2026-07-05

  • reviews1★reported thisThis was the worst trip I've had in a bus. The driver was smoking all the trip, taking phone calls (OVER 20! in the 6-hour trip) plus texting all the time, and on top of that didn't put the AC being at 30-35 degrees outside. It was a nightmare, and I took photos as proof of everything I'm claiming2025-09-15
  • reviews1★reported thisAbsolutely TERRIBLE STAFF at the station. No help! Super mean. And used forever helping. Also, had hidden fees not expressed on the website.

Tanto o motorista como os funcionários da rodoviária foram extremamente grosseiros e muito agrecivos.

  • reviews1★reported thisDear Sir/Madam, I am writing to formally complain about my recent journey from Tirana to Budva. Unfortunately, the entire experience was extremely stressful, poorly organised and, in several respects, unacceptable for a long-distance international bus service. The problems started before the bus even arrived. Passengers were instructed to arrive 30 minutes before departure, which we did. The scheduled departure time was 14:15, but we only actually departed after 15:00. The departure point itself was extremely confusing. There was a designated area for buses, and unlike the other operators, there was no clear sign identifying the departure point for this particular service. Several passengers were completely lost and had no idea whether we were in the correct place. We tried repeatedly to obtain information and called the company by telephone, but nobody answered. We were left walking around the area, carrying heavy suitcases and backpacks, trying to find someone who could tell us what was happening. Nobody seemed to know anything about this particular company or where the bus was supposed to arrive. The situation was made even more concerning by the different company names involved in the booking and the actual transportation. I purchased my ticket through Gjirafa, and my ticket clearly identifies Diamond as the company associated with the service. However, the vehicle that eventually arrived was identified as Supreme Travel and Tours, a completely different company. There was no clear explanation whatsoever as to the relationship between these companies or why a vehicle operating under the name Supreme Travel and Tours was being used for a journey booked and ticketed under Diamond. This was particularly concerning because the departure point was completely unmarked, nobody at the location seemed to know where the bus was supposed to arrive, and our attempts to contact the company by telephone were unsuccessful. As tourists in a foreign country, we were therefore left waiting for a vehicle whose identity did not correspond to the company clearly identified on our tickets. This created a genuine concern about whether we were boarding the correct authorised transport. Passengers should not have to resolve this kind of uncertainty themselves. There was also no equipment available to scan or properly validate our QR-code tickets. This made the boarding process even more confusing and reinforced the general lack of organisation. When the bus finally arrived, there was another serious problem: there were already passengers on board. Consequently, there were not enough proper seats for everyone who had been waiting at the departure point. One of the female passengers who had been waiting with us from the beginning was ultimately forced to sit next to the driver because there was no proper seat available for her. I find this completely unacceptable. Passengers who have purchased and paid for a ticket should be guaranteed an appropriate seat on the vehicle. A vehicle that arrives already partially occupied and does not have enough proper seats for the passengers booked at the departure point is simply not an appropriate vehicle for the service. The condition of the bus was also extremely poor, particularly considering that this was a long-distance international journey. Several elements of the seats were broken, the air conditioning was not functioning properly, and the window next to my seat could not be closed. As a result, direct sunlight was shining onto me for a significant part of the journey. After several hours, this became extremely uncomfortable and physically painful. I also found the driver’s behaviour extremely concerning. He was repeatedly using his mobile phone while driving, which I consider unacceptable from a safety perspective. At the same time, he was driving extremely slowly. Other buses and vehicles were repeatedly overtaking us, despite the fact that we were already considerably delayed. There was also an unnecessary stop during the journey. The driver stopped and asked whether anyone wanted to get off. Nobody wanted to get off, as we were already considerably behind schedule. Nevertheless, the driver left the bus and went to eat, while all the passengers remained waiting. Given the existing delay, I found this particularly inappropriate and unprofessional. This was a personal break for the driver’s benefit rather than a necessary passenger stop. There was also an issue regarding luggage. The driver attempted to charge me an additional €2 for my backpack. I explained that I wanted to keep my backpack with me, but he told me that there was no space inside the bus. Eventually, he placed it in the luggage compartment and apparently did not charge me the €2. Again, the issue was not simply the amount of money involved, but the lack of clear information regarding the luggage policy and the manner in which the situation was handled. I am also very concerned about the way passengers’ identity documents were handled. Our passports were collected by the staff and then passed from person to person as a pile, meaning that passengers were able to see other passengers’ passports and personal information. The same thing happened again at the end of the journey. Instead of the passports being individually returned to their respective owners by the responsible staff member, the entire pile was passed from passenger to passenger, with each person having to identify and take their own passport. I found this handling of passengers’ passports highly inappropriate and concerning from a privacy and security perspective. Passports contain sensitive personal information and should be handled carefully and returned directly to their respective owners, rather than being passed around among passengers. Most importantly, the journey eventually took approximately five and a half hours. I want to make it clear that this was not primarily due to the border crossing, which was actually relatively quick. The excessive journey time was largely the result of the late departure and the extremely slow progress of the bus. Considering that passengers are specifically instructed to arrive 30 minutes before departure, it is particularly frustrating to be expected to arrive early while the company itself provides such an unreliable service. I paid more than €30 for this journey, which is not an insignificant amount. For this price, I expected at least a properly organised, reliable and safe international bus service, with a clearly identified departure point, appropriate seating, a suitable and properly maintained vehicle, professional conduct from the driver and appropriate handling of passengers’ documents. Instead, the experience involved: * a significantly delayed departure; * an unmarked and confusing departure point; * nobody answering the company’s telephone; * passengers being left without information; * multiple and apparently unrelated company names involved in the booking and transportation; * a ticket identifying Diamond, while the vehicle was identified as Supreme Travel and Tours; * no equipment to scan our QR-code tickets; * insufficient proper seating for passengers; * a passenger being forced to sit next to the driver; * broken seats and other elements of the bus; * inadequate air conditioning; * a window that could not be closed; * direct sunlight causing significant discomfort during the journey; * the driver repeatedly using his mobile phone while driving; * unnecessarily slow driving; * an unnecessary stop for the driver’s personal meal despite the considerable delay; * an unclear attempt to charge an additional luggage fee; * inappropriate handling of passengers’ passports; * and a total journey time of approximately five and a half hours. I consider this level of service completely unacceptable for an international journey costing more than €30. Furthermore, the vehicle that was actually provided was clearly inadequate for a journey of this length and did not appear to correspond to the service that passengers had reasonably been led to expect when purchasing their tickets. Given the substantial difference between the service purchased and the service actually provided, together with the significant delay, poor condition of the vehicle, inadequate seating, safety concerns and overall lack of professional organisation, I am requesting a refund of 50% of the ticket price as reasonable compensation for the inadequate service provided. I have photographic evidence documenting the condition of the vehicle, including the damaged seats and other issues described above, and I can provide this evidence upon request. I also retain my booking confirmation and ticket. I ask that you take this complaint seriously and provide a written response addressing the issues raised above, including my request for a 50% refund. I look forward to receiving your response. Kind regards, Susana2026-08-31

  • reviews1★reported thisThe driver (from Skopje to Prishtina) was smoking for 1 hours. He didn't even open the window. So I took a photo and commented in their Facebook page. The driver stopped the bus and he shouted to passengers. He accused 1 girl taking his smoking photo and had a big arguement with her. After he found out it was me, he asked me to delete the photo. The staff from the Facebook messenger asked me to do the same. And the aircon was weak. It was a very bad experience.2025-07-24

As a result, we were forced to purchase two new tickets in order to complete our journey. This situation caused unnecessary inconvenience and additional expense, despite having already paid for valid tickets through your service. Since the service purchased was not provided as advertised, I kindly request a full refund of the original booking amount (€22.00).2026-05-28

  • reviews1★reported thisWorst trip ever. The mini van was old and with a broken wheel, the driver stopped in the middle of the road to change it. Also, they have no air conditioning, no windows, no ventilation, and the van was full of people. They oversell tickets and then people need to stand or use a plastic chair in the middle of the van. I’ve never seen something like this before. The bus drivers are unrespectful, they scream to you the whole time.2025-09-06
  • reviews2★reported thisI got in a fight with the driver over the ticket email. It was in English and the driver of the bus did not believe me that the ticket was valid for the day I had purchased it for. He was pointing at the date purchased section mistaking it for the date of travel. I suggest having a dual language ticket so the driver doesn’t get confused and try and extract more money from me then was needed. The bus was delayed in leaving by 40 minutes. I thought I’d missed my initial bus, so I bought another ticket only to find I didn’t need to use it. The bus station at Tirana had no Toilet facilities or shade and finding my bus was almost impossible no one had any idea what was going on or if the ticket I purchased was valid on that service.2025-09-09

  • reviews1★reported thisI used this travel agency 2 times, and we were never on time. We were not only late by a few minutes but by 2 hours. So in both cases I could not manage to make my appointments. It is highly unsatisfying when you arrive instead of 15h at 17h or at the 2nd time instead of 18h at 20h. Another problem was, when you don't speak the language - the drop-off was in a totally different area of the town than it was said in the ticket. Luckily another passenger was able to explain to me, that I have to take a taxi from the place, where the Bus dropped us off. Also instead of asking me to move to another seating-spot, I was requested by the staff to pay for a 2nd seat - because I didn't understand that I was sitting in the wrong seat. Nowhere was it said, that I can not sit in some seats. Overall the experience was intimidating and it would be much better, when the instructions about seating would be send in advance and also if the Busses could be on time.2026-05-04

  • reviews1★reported thisWe took the bus from Tirana to Budva on 26 August at 5am (planned arrival in Budva at 10am, although we arrived at 12:30. The experience was awful. The driver smoked during the whole trip while driving, which made the bus disgusting both to breathe and to smell. I am still coughing and it had been 1h since I left that bus. The driver was also completely rude, shouting at clients all the time when communicating. He even hit a passenger in her backpack. We had to pay 2 euros per bag put in the tray, which was never communicated to us when we did the booking. The bus driver stopped several times during the trip to buy cigarettes and coffee, and this made us get stuck in traffic and we arrived 2h 30mins late. We took the 5am bus on purpose to avoid traffic and arrive in time, but it was a horrible experience. The bus was also very dirty. We will never recommend other people to use this company.2026-08-26

Then, shockingly, the driver asked us — the ticketed passengers — to give up our seats so the newly boarded passengers could sit down. As a result, I had to sit on a plastic stool in the aisle for 2.5 hours of the journey. This is not only extremely uncomfortable but also illegal and unsafe. It's outrageous that a company would prioritize overbooking and profit over passenger safety and dignity. The staff showed no respect or concern, and there was no apology or explanation. This kind of behavior is unacceptable for any transportation company. Conclusion: If you care about your safety, rights, and comfort — do not travel with this company. This was one of the worst travel experiences of my life. Even one star is too generous.2025-07-14

2 riders reported the air-conditioning was broken or very weak on this route, with 1 describing chain smoking and dirt in the bus. The line runs well overall, so we need to fix the cooling system before summer travel becomes unsafe.

  • reviews3★Bus was chaos. Driver assigned seats bizarrely, people sitting on floor, there’s no way to get a seat assignment but driver wants it2024-10-07
  • reviews4★Overall it’s been very easy to use Gjirafa, and all trips have worked. The Gjirafa tickets have no seat assignments, so I gather that a smart idea is to find your bus ASAP and get a seat. I am not sure if that can be done a day or so in advance, an hour in advance, or not at all. I imagine each trip is different. It would also be nice to know the type of bus when booking. Or maybe I am naive and all buses are the same, more or less a minibus.2024-10-07

  • reviews4★The are now 2 bus stations in Durres. Your website has not been updated, so the bus to Berat which your website says leaves from the Station actually leaves from Plepa.2025-06-21
  • reviews4★Our experience in buying tickets was fine. The bus was waiting at Berat bus station as expected and left on time. The bus engine was overheating and at some point the driver switched off the aircon. We were at the front of the bus so still had some air from the driver's window but it must have been very hot at the back of the bus. We arrived in Gjirokaster on time.2025-06-24
  • reviews4★Basically, I really enjoyed the bus ride. I think it’s a very pleasant way to get from A to B. What I didn’t like at all, however, was that in the bus four additional people had to sit on stools between the rows of seats, which of course made it very cramped, and there also wasn’t enough space in the luggage rack for all the people who were on the bus.2025-09-19

The 2 riders reported the air conditioning did not work or worked only briefly during 2.5-hour trips in heat above 36 degrees. On a line with 12 five-star and 4-star reviews against 14 one- and two-star reviews, broken cooling in summer heat makes this route unreliable for paying passengers.

  • reviews1★reported thisI am writing to formally lodge a complaint regarding a transfer service I recently used with your company, traveling from Fier to Tirana. The experience was, without exaggeration, one of the most unpleasant journeys I have ever endured, and I believe it falls far below any acceptable standard of passenger transport. I would like to bring the following serious issues to your attention: 1. No Air Conditioning The minivan used for the transfer had no functioning air conditioning whatsoever. Given the extreme heat conditions during the journey, the temperature inside the vehicle became unbearable. Passengers were subjected to intense heat for the entire duration of the trip, which poses not only a serious comfort issue but also a genuine health and safety concern. 2. Extremely Poor Vehicle Condition The interior of the minivan was in a deplorable state of cleanliness. The seats were visibly and heavily soiled, making it deeply unpleasant to sit in. The overall condition of the vehicle was entirely unacceptable for a paid passenger transport service. 3. Driver Smoking Inside the Vehicle Most disturbingly, the driver was smoking cigarettes inside the closed minivan throughout the journey, with no window open to allow ventilation. This is not only extremely disrespectful to passengers but is also a serious health hazard — particularly for those with respiratory conditions — and likely a violation of public transport regulations. The combination of these three issues made the journey genuinely uncomfortable and unacceptable. I paid for a transport service and received conditions that no paying customer should ever be subjected to. In light of the above, I am formally requesting a full or partial refund for the amount paid for this transfer. I expect your company to take this complaint seriously and respond with a concrete resolution. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you require any further details regarding this journey. I look forward to your prompt response. Sincerely, Gabriel2026-06-12
  • reviews1★reported thisWe booked on line, when we arrived at the station there was a random assortment of old buses with no staff in attendance to assist which bus to get on. One driver indicated that his bus was going to Tirana, we showed him our tickets and he indicated get on board. The bus was appropriately a 20 seater, old, dirty and the seat was so close I had sit the whole way with my knees in the aisle. The bus traveled at a steady 70 kmh and we had no air conditioning for the next 2.5 hours ( the air-conditioning kicked into life twice for about 5 minutes each time) in 36 degrees heat. An experience I would not like to repeat.2026-08-02
  • reviews1★I had a very bad experience with this supposedly called bus company.

  • reviews1★Absolutely terrible experience. The bus was old, dirty and clearly not properly maintained. The worst part was that there was no air conditioning at all, despite the extremely hot weather. The journey was uncomfortable from start to finish, with unbearable heat and poor conditions inside the bus. On top of that, the information about where and how to catch the bus was extremely unclear and confusing. For tourists, the whole experience felt completely outdated and disorganized. It honestly felt like travelling in the Stone Age when it comes to tourist services. Albania really needs to improve its public transport system and make it much more tourist-friendly. I would definitely not recommend this bus service.2026-08-21

  • reviews2★The first time using Girafa was fine, but I don't understand why you are offering an esim and the way it appears makes one think that you cannot book a trip without it. I regret buying it. The second trip did not happen. I tried booking bus fare for today back to my city and the system would not confirm. Now I have en email saying I didn't complete the process when it was your system. I was lucky. I went to bus terminal in Tirane and found a bus so I could go home. I better not see any more trips than the one.2025-07-10
  • reviews2★Firstly the drivers knew nothing in English. Then we drove like 2 hours 30 minutes, but they dropped us off at the middle of nowhere. Then if we wanted to really get to the airport, like we booked, we had to pay plus 4 euros to another bus take us to our destination which was another 1 hour. I don’t recommend2025-08-31
  • reviews2★Well. At least kin Vlore, I never know which of the two bus stations to get the buses. The last time I went to the station near Old Town. No Gjirafa travel bus signs, do I got on a bus that was there. A day ago, I paid for a ticket and again had no idea where to go or what bus to get on. I won't be buying any more tickets in advance because I don't use them and I wind up paying twice.2025-12-02

I was really angry that the vlore dropoff was 150 meters north of Haso Hiper market- not anywhere close to the Vlore bus station. Lucky it stopped raining and I had no luggage. I walked 1.5 KM to a buss stop on the main boulevard. Upsetting they drop in the middle of 10 taxis...no local bus service that I know of2026-01-07
  • reviews3★The actual bus service is much different than what it seems on your website (at least for the Albania destinations). The buses are the smaller ones run by private individuals and not the larger buses you would expect. Plus there are no terminals just random stops2026-05-03
  • reviews3★The bus drivers was not so happy for a prepaid ticket from Gjirafa - they want cash. But they accepted it with som discontent. Many of the buses have no AC and no windows to open (because they are built for AC). This is probably feedback to the bus companies, so please bring the message forward. As a tourist we would gladly pay twice or even triple and more for bus tickets with better busses that have functioning AC.2026-07-06

  • reviews1★reported thisThe vehicle provided was a elderly minibus, which was severely overcrowded, resulting in several passengers having to stand throughout the journey. The seatbelts were non-functional, posing a safety concern. While air conditioning was available, it was leaking and operated inconsistently. The bus was scheduled to stop at the central bus station in Himarë before proceeding to Vlorë; however, this stop was omitted, requiring passengers to disembark outside the city. Tickets purchased online were priced 2 euros higher per person compared to those bought directly from the driver. Although we successfully traveled from Sarandë to Himarë, that was the only favorable aspect of the experience.2025-08-06
  • reviews1★reported thisThe bus station indicated on the ticket was completely different from the actual departure point. When we arrived at the station shown on our ticket, they told us we had to take a taxi to another location. When we finally got there, the bus wasn’t even there, so we had to wait about 1 hour and 30 minutes. We received no refund and had to pay the same amount again in cash. The staff were also very rude and unhelpful. It honestly felt like a scam. I strongly recommend paying directly on the spot and not booking online.2026-08-19

When we dropped off in Himare (all the people on the bus) it was a 15min walk to the town in the hot sun only to find the bus parked in town (seems ridiculous the entire bus had to walk to where the bus went anyways). We unfortunately will not book again via Gjirafa and have now rented a car instead of taking anymore busses.2026-06-17

  • reviews1★Really frustrating experience. We got off the ferry from Corfu, and went to the “departure location”, only to be told to scan a QR code for the real location of the bus… which was another 15 mins by taxi to get to. This made us miss the bus. If you have a “departure location” on the ticket, it would be god to flag if this is actually where the bus is leaving from?2026-07-21
  • reviews1★Our experience with Gjirafa was horrible. We booked a bus a day in advance with ‘guaranteed seats’ in the morning and arrived only 10 minutes early due to a delayed taxi and intense traffic, thinking that we would be fine. When arriving to the station we asked staff where our bus was and they said it was full and we couldn’t get on it. We managed to get to the ticket office where they also confirmed it was full and leaving. Still 5 minutes before scheduled time. We tried to contact via email and WhatsApp but didn’t have any luck. Had to book another bus costing more money to make up and there was certainly no refund for us. We unfortunately also booked transport back to sarande with Gjirafa when our bus back was 1 hour late. Came at 20:40 instead of 19:40. And we were even there at 19:10 as it recommends to get there 30mins prior. I understand that traffic and incidents occur that would force a bus to be delayed but one hour and no update or confirmation that it was coming was just horrendous. Glad we don’t have to use this platform again.2026-08-05

The bus air-conditioning was minimal or turned on late during a 1.5 hour journey on very hot days, leaving passengers stressed and uncomfortable. Out of 27 reviews on this line, 2 reported this issue while 21 gave it 1-2 stars, mostly for overcrowding and overbooking problems that make the heat worse.

  • reviews1★reported thisFor a 1.5 hour bus ride. It was one of the most distressing experiences in my travels. Tiny mini bus, with people having to stand and suitcases in the middle. Minimal air conditioner on a very hot day, had a lot of people beyond stressed from the heat and discomfort.2026-08-17
  • reviews2★reported thisThe Bus arrived late, and we had to wait by the street since there is no structure or bus stop. Also many people did the hole journey standing since there was no free sitting. It's incomprehensible how someone pays for a ticket and has no place to sit.. The AC was turned on almost at the end of the journey...2026-06-10
  • reviews1★I booked the ticket and there's no bus showing up, the refund process takes ages and unclear who's responsible for my refund. Besides, the no show bus also caused huge problems for my travel, if there's no bus, please don't sell the ticket2025-03-27
  • reviews1★I had bought tickets for 2 of us but the bus was overbooked and they allowed the people who did not buy tickets to have seats. We had to stand in the middle of bus, around 14 of ys had to stand. The bus was overcrowded and very unsafe. It was so crowded that the door to bus wasn’t fully closed. Horrible experience. The driver did not care. Especially that are disabled with hearing loss.2025-07-16
  • reviews1★J'ai fait signe au chauffeur de bus afin qu'il s'arrête et il est passé sans s'arrêter et indiquant qu'il était plein !hors la place est garantie quand on passe par le site d'ailleurs la place est plus cher qu'en payant directement au chauffeur ! Très déçu, j'espère être remboursé2025-08-26
  • reviews1★bad experience where no bus top clear sign, bus doesn't show on time and arrived already full and seems no system. Buses are running very little in peak of season. It seems the country not well prepared for tourism in an organized way.2025-08-27

  • reviews1★I ordered a ticket and went to the stop on the other side of town, even though I had never heard of buses going there. Slightly early the bus drove by, and it drove past me. I was the only person sitting there at the spot. It has been 2 days and I’ve only been told they’ll analyze the situation.2026-02-23
  • reviews1★We booked online and I was heading immediately to the toilet after we arrived. I had the ticket on my mobil. My friend took the luggage out of the bus.The driver was very aggressive because he wanted to get the money for the ticket and did not understand that we booked online. It was very scary and unfriendly!2026-06-01

  • reviews1★We booked a bus from himare to saranda and we were made to stand for an hour and a half through windy roads, very cramped as about 10 of us had to stand (no hand rails and bus not built for standing) - someone behind me was throwing up because of travel sickness, 0 regard for anyone’s happiness or health, joke of a company2026-07-10
  • reviews1★Overbooked bus. Sitting on floor.2026-07-20
  • reviews1★Unfortunately, I cannot say anything positive. I bought a ticket online for the trip from Himarë to Sarandë, but your driver arrived in a minibus that was already full; he left me and several other people behind, assuring us that another bus would arrive in 10 minutes—which never happened. I nearly missed my ferry to Corfu and my flight!😡2026-07-22

  • reviews1★The bus from Himara to Saranda was completely overcrowded. More than half of the passengers had to stand, even though we had paid for a guaranteed seat included in the ticket price. Some people couldn’t even get on in Himara because there was no space left. It was extremely hot and felt very unsafe with so many people standing. Definitely not worth the price ,very disappointing.2026-08-26

  • reviews1★reported thisThe bus is NOT direct, he stops for random people and at main stops. The driver was not polite to me, travelling alone he watched me struggle to put the bags in the undercarriage then proceeded to shout in his language that it’s been put in wrong, I later watched him help multiple people with their luggage. He also snatched my personal bag off me to put in the under carriage and another passenger beckoned him to give it back as he understood my English when I said “I have medicine in that bag” DO BOT BOOK WITH TRANSBUS. Also the journey was 5 and a half hours from vlore to saranda.2026-08-18
  • reviews4★reported thisI am writing to express my extreme dissatisfaction with the experience we had on our journey from Vlora to Saranda with your company. Firstly, the driver was extremely aggressive towards us and attempted to overcharge us a significant amount for our bicycles. We had to negotiate for a long time just to get on the bus, and the staff did not assist us with loading or unloading the bikes, which we had to disassemble ourselves. Additionally, the trip was supposed to take about two hours, but it ended up taking over four hours with more than twenty stops along the way. The driver also smoked in front of us and drove in a very dangerous manner. Furthermore, the driver arbitrarily set the price, which was unacceptable. Given these issues, I am requesting an immediate refund for the service provided. I look forward to your prompt response. Sincerely,2025-08-07
  • reviews1★Porque no nos dejaban entrar al bus con los tickets on line al principio nos ponían muchas pegas luego despues de insistir nos acabaron dejando2025-04-20
  • reviews1★Found out on the bus that the ticket price online was double what people were paying on the bus. Could have just shown up and paid there2025-05-26
  • reviews1★Very unorganized, cause they sold more tickets than the seats.2025-06-17
  • reviews1★The trip from Vlore to Sarande was not good at all. First, the scheduled arrival was supposed to be 14h30, but we only arrived at 15h30, not because of the traffic, but because the driver decided to stop 1h only after our departure from Vlora at a cafe on our way, and also kept stopping several times on the way to pick-up and drop-off people. Because of this delay, I nearly could have missed a tour that I’ve booked in Sarande. Moreover, the bus in itself was not good with the smell of the engine smoke all the way. So definitely not a good trip unfortunately, and sorry for this feedback but it’s the truth.2025-06-26
  • reviews1★Really upset, I expect reimbursement. The information about the travel is totally incorrect : none of the many stops is displayed on the ticket. Including the other ones in Vlora that could have arranged us. The time of arrival is totally wrong (18h30 instead of 16h30). That made our decision to take this trip irrelevant, since we miss all buses in saranda. Please contact us to reimburse us2025-07-09
  • reviews1★I paid 33euros for 2 passengers online for a trip from Vlore station to Saranda which would have cost just 20 euros if we had paid at the bus station. First off, it took a while to find your representative at Vlore station. We took off at 2.30 but the bus was moved very slowly and practically picked /drop off passengers at almost every stop/city. Meanwhile on your website you states that the trip was a direct 2 hours trip to Sarande. To make matters worse, the vehicle developed a fault on our way and we waited for almost an hour for them to get it fixed. This is the worst bus service I’ve ever experienced. A trip that was supposed to take 2 hours took us over 5 hours. It’s bad enough that we paid almost double of what we should have paid had we not booked on your website.2025-07-14
  • reviews1★There was no connection between the service we booked in the app and what we got when we arrived at the bus station. We certainly took whichever bus was scheduled for the time slot we bought but it was a small 12-13 seat van, which stopped in every possible spot along the way to pickup/drop off passengers, drove insanely unsafely, speeding in curvy roads while raining and making what was initially sold as a 2 hour direct (inland/highway) trip into a 3.5 hours coastal nerve wrecking night ride. The worst bus ride ever.2025-12-31
  • reviews1★Very bad service2026-04-10
  • reviews1★The trip was very disappointing. At first, the driver was driving extremely slowly for a long time and was always on his phone, sometimes only around 30 km/h. Later, the complete opposite happened: he drove down the winding mountain roads far too fast and recklessly, which felt very unsafe and uncomfortable. On top of that, the journey took about one and a half hours longer than originally scheduled. Overall, it was not a pleasant experience at all. Next time, I will definitely choose a different bus company. I didnt felt Safe!!!2026-05-19
  • reviews1★The bus never arrived at the location given and no one was able to help us.2026-06-15
  • reviews1★I didn’t like the experience at all. The indications for the meet point were not clear and the contact number provided on the website didn’t help us at all. Also I think it’s important to provide a number to whom clients can write on Whatsapp, as many tourist only have internet. The bus didn’t have any places where to sit, so my friends and I stayed on our feet for most of the travel. I would never recommend this website.2026-06-27
  • reviews1★Be more specific about how many stops bus will going to have it’s said on the ticket it’s a direct bus from vlore to Sarande and it’s stopped like 5 times and the whole journey took like 6 hours and the bus was moving like a turtle very slow2026-07-15
  • reviews1★The ticket was fake and the bus did not exist2026-08-05
  • reviews1★We had very bad experience. On the website we booked the bus says that the journey from Vlore to Saranda takes 3 hours and it says the journey is direct, the bus operator was Transbus. However,the bus took five and half hour to arrive, because the driver over loaded passengers, he stopped many places to pick up passengers, many people had to stand on the bus for the whole journey, it was a very hot day the bus had no air condition, everyone was suffering with the heat and stuffy bus. The bus is not same with over loading passsengers as it was difficult to go up the hill it went slowly like walking. Because it was so hot the driver had to open the bus door during the journey to let some fresh air comes in. The bus was old and dirty. l do not recommend this journey.2026-08-17

  • reviews1★We decided not to take the bus we had booked in Albania after our hotel manager kindly called the bus company to confirm whether it would arrive at the destination on time. We were told it would not - apparently, buses in Albania often stop for extended coffee breaks, leading to delays of over an hour in reaching the final destination. It’s unclear how bus companies are allowed to operate like this without accountability. We had to take an expensive taxi instead.2025-06-11
  • reviews1★The bus didn’t have seats for everyone even for people with tickets that was ordered many months in advance. Prepare to stand up for up to 5 hours. The information on the ticket is incorrect. The trip from Tirana to Dhermi and return took 5 hours instead of 2.5 hours as stated in the ticket.

  • reviews1★reported thisThe driver didn't want to let us on the bus. He said we must pay cash 20€ and that we must wait for the next bus at 14:40. Not only us but all the other people who have online ticket are still waiting, and we don't really know how long we have to wait. That's scandal that he wanted us to pay 20€ cash when we already paid 20€ online. Here, everybody hopes that we can travel with the next bus and there will be places. The driver was absolutely scam.2026-08-24
  • reviews2★reported thisFirst bus left half an hour late and arrived 2 hours late at destination. Drivers did not communicate stops. Second bus was an hour late and driver was yelling at passengers upon boarding. There was no seat available so I had to sit in the aisle. Actual drive was rough.2024-10-09
  • reviews1★We booked a bus leaving Himare for Saranda at 11am. No bus arrived until 12:10am. There was no contact by Gjirafa or by the Olgeno bus operator so we had no idea if or when the bus might turn up. By the time it finally arrived the bus was totally overcrowded and it was difficult to find luggage space as it was a small bus. Many passengers were standing and the trip was hot and uncomfortable. It was the worst travel experience we have had since stating our travelling in early April.2025-05-21
  • reviews1★We paid for bus tickets up front but the bus never turned up. So we paid for tickets and had to pay 50€ for a taxi to our hotel. We would recommend NOT buying any tickets in advance as you will be left out of pocket. Very disappointed..2025-06-05

To get to the new departure point would have been 40minutes walk outside Himara. No taxi available. Olgeno bus company offert no refund, no alternative busride. 30ppl were left behind in Himara center with pre-paid tickets. This my 3rd busride in Albania & everytime it was a desaster. All bus companies here are fraud.2026-07-05

  • reviews1★Never take this bus!! The bus took on 4 passenger above capcity, had no aicon, our luggage had to stand on the floor between the seats, with people sitting on it, and the driver stoped multiple times to talk to people along the road. Amongst those stops where stops to possible take upon more passengers, although we were already far above the buses seat capacity. The driver was on his phone the whole time, drove too far and had to turn around, and gave no information in enligsh. In all the drive took 4 hours, instead of 3 hours, and the bus even started drive before the scheduled departure. In all the dribe was horrible and unsafe. If possible, our group would have given it zero stars, and recommend choosing a taxi. The only positive part of this drive was sick and horrific story we now have to tell our friends and future kids.2025-07-02

  • reviews3★Bus was extremely hot for the first hour of our journey - there wasnt any a/c. I was soaked through my t shirt was wet for the entire journey - extremely uncomfortable. The driver took us to the petrol station and our journey was delayed by over half an hour, purely because the bus wasnt fuelled before we had boarded - this could and should have been done beforehand, when the bus was at the bus station for the hour before we departed. Staff were discourteous and rude to us regarding stop offs. They nearly drove off without passengers on a couple of occaisions2024-09-07

Buses leave late or don't arrive, stranding passengers who miss connections and pay extra for taxis—12 reports show this happens despite 149 riders rating the line 4-5 stars. We lose customer trust and money when schedule failures force people to buy second transport, especially on routes with tight transfer windows.

  • reviews1★reported thisI purchased a ticket for a journey from Saranda to Tirana Airport on June 8th. I bought a ticket for a bus departing from Saranda at 17:00. The system automatically created two separate tickets. The first one was for Saranda to Tirana Terminal (departure at 17:00 – arrival at 21:20). The second one was from Tirana Terminal to Tirana Airport (departure at 22:00 – arrival at 22:30). There was only a 40-minute gap between the two trips, and I only found out the details of the second trip after I had already made the purchase. However, the bus from Saranda arrived at the terminal at 23:00. The terminal, I later learned, closes at 22:00. When I arrived, there were no vehicles available. I was left stranded. Moreover, I paid €8 for 2 people for the terminal-to-airport transfer and an additional €4 service fee — a total of €12 wasted.2025-06-09
  • reviews1★reported thisThe bus was overbooked. So instead of going 10:45, we went 11:45. And we didn’t even get picked up in a bus. It was a mini van. There wasn’t room for all of us again. So some people had to wait even longer for the next bus even though they had a ticket for 10:45. The condition of the minivan was atrocious. Really bad The booking on gjirafa website was nice and easy The rest. Really bad2025-08-04

  • reviews1★reported thisBooking process was simple enough, although the travel was so bad. Bus was overbooked, so the bus company provided 2 extra buses - great, but because of that we didn’t leave until nearly 1,5hours later that we meant to. Nobody once was apologetic and bothered that we have a flight to catch. We literally just made it to the airport, were late for a transfer bus and ended up paying extra for a new one (even that we had one booked via gijrafa). Buses in both directions were very uncomfortable and no leg space whatsoever. So thinking that if you leave Saranda at 10:45 to catch the flight in Tirana at 8pm, which gives over 9 hours, was completely wrong.2025-08-16

  • reviews2★reported thisTirana-Budva bus. It was a bad experience. The bus was scheduled to leave at 5 am, but it departed at about 5:40. At the station, it was revealed that a ticket needed to be printed. This is not stated on the ticket, which caused additional stress. Printing one ticket costs 1 euro. It is expensive and seems like a rip-off, but there is no alternative. I am still not sure that you really need to print the ticket and that this is not a business scheme. I bought a ticket to Petrovac, but the driver said that the bus does not stop there and goes only to Budva and asked: "Will you go?". Of course I will, I am standing at the bus station in Tirana at 5 am! The driver smoked on the bus, but this is a common practice here. The toilets did not work, there was one stop between Tirana and Budva. At 10 am the heat started and it turned out that the air conditioner could not cope with the heat. Two stars just for getting from point A to point B (almost).2025-06-28

  • reviews1★We booked a ticket for a train from Sarande to Tirana airport and they offered two buses with a transfer in between (they said the transfer was a 22 minute drive and that’s it, no other information about the transfer from one bus to another). We would have been better off getting the one bus and then a taxi ourselves rather than getting the first bus, taking a taxi going back on ourselves for the second bus (the taxi to the second bus was the same cost as the taxi to the airport!). The taxi to the airport was also about 25 mins whereas the second bus took an hour!!!! Not practical at all and just added stress!2024-10-13

  • reviews1★I had the worst experience with this company. When my friend and I arrived at the bus, the driver took both of our suitcases and loaded them onto the bus – we saw this with our own eyes. The bus itself was in terrible condition – honestly, it was falling apart. During the drive, the driver was texting and talking on the phone, which is completely unacceptable. And without exaggerating, we were driving at 30 km/h for over an hour on the highway. On top of that, the bus randomly stopped twice in the middle of the road for no reason. With about an hour left of the trip, the driver came to the back of the bus and handed me his phone. A man on the line told me in English that they had found my suitcase in the middle of the street in Sarandë. I explained that this was not my responsibility, as I had trusted the driver to load it – which both of us had clearly seen him do. When the driver was informed about the situation, he started yelling at me, saying it was my fault, and completely denied having done anything wrong. He took no responsibility at all and was extremely rude and aggressive in the way he spoke to me. They offered to send the suitcase with the next bus, but I wasn’t going to receive it in time before my flight. It all turned into a huge mess, and I ended up having to book a new flight for the next day – and pay for a hotel – just to get my luggage back. To make things worse, the other bus driver who brought my suitcase demanded €10 for doing so. I will never travel back and will absolutely never use this company again. It was a truly awful experience. This was yesterday at 09:302025-06-07
  • reviews1★I had purchased two bus tickets from sarande to Tirana airport. So there was a transfer. The bus was very late getting to Tirana and so we were stranded at the bus terminal. The driver should have put us in a cab and paid for it.2025-06-09

Tampoco pudimos tomar a tiempo el siguiente bus que ya habiamos comprado nuestros billetes desde Tirana hasta el aeropuerto osea perdimos nuestro dinero y tuvimos que pagar un taxi para alcanzar a tiempo el avión. Fué caótico pir culpa de que los buses de esta compañia son todos rotos y viejos, además no le hacen servicio de mantención. No recomiendo esta compañia.2025-07-21

  • reviews1★They were very polite until you bought the ticket, but I can't begin to describe their rudeness here! A young blonde man with black sunglasses waiting at the Saranda bus stop. A perverted young man who gave priority to beautiful women and yelled and scolded others who asked questions! Due to my bureaucratic duties, I kept quiet that day to avoid getting into trouble! I've never seen someone both rude and perverted in my life, so this was a lesson learned! Saturday, August 2nd, 10:45 AM bus from Saranda to Tirana. I was one of the customers in two groups, A1 and A2. The pervert was organizing the red bus. Don't give these kinds of perverts any business, dear authorities!2025-08-05

  • reviews1★I took the bus from Tirana to Saranda in Albania, but it wasn't easy to find the bus stop when leaving the airport. I actually had to take a taxi for 20 minutes once I arrived at the airport to get to the bus stop. Given how complicated the process was, I almost missed my bus, and the same thing happened on the way back. You have to go to a tourist office before boarding the bus. It's not enough to have already bought your bus ticket. The process is complicated for no good reason. My driver was not at all friendly and didn't bother to explain anything to me, even though we didn't speak the same language, and of course I missed the bus. I lost money and had to pay €170 for taxis to get to the airport. It was an obstacle course both ways because of the complicated system for no good reason, the lack of information, the fact that it was poorly signposted, and the lack of professionalism of the drivers. I do not recommend it!2025-09-21
  • reviews1★Bus was overbooked despite us purchasing tickets the day before online and getting the paper tickets 1 hour before the departure time. We were 29-30 seats but some people were already on the bus coming from Ksamil. They had been given the same seats. There was no seat for my companion. The driver aggressively shouted at people, including us. Finally one woman had enough and left which opened up the seat for my companion. This experience tarnished my view of Albania and I decided I will recommend private transfers to everyone. Absolutely astonishing experience.2025-09-21

  • reviews1★I am a person who travels a lot. Different cities, different countries, different cultures. But I have never felt as insecure traveling as I did with this company. The driver was speeding for long stretches of the route, exceding the limits (I recorded qith Google Maps to control the speed of it, so it wasn'tjust a felling). On our trip, there was an over-sale of tickets, forcing people to travel standing or sitting on the floor for long hours, on routes full of curves, ups and downs. It seems to me to be the worst service that has ever existed, without naming that the law has been broke in different aspects.2026-06-20

  • reviews1★Transport in Albania is run by greedy people who avoid tolls and go on busy roads to save money, tell you it is a direct service when they pick up and drop off people along the way, do parcel deliveries along the way, take twice as long to finish a journey than it would take to go there directly AND if that wasn't bad enough, they do it all without air conditioning. You are expected to waste your time on a bus and drip in sweat with your legs up high in the air because of their greed, instead of being out there enjoying your life or working etc. Their greed and inability to take someone from A to B in a quick and efficient manner, stops everyone else from prospering. Further they stop fir a break for 20 minutes because they are taking so long to complete the journey. When the last bus leaves at 4pm, you don't have time to do all the things you wanted to do at your destination. You don't spend money at the restaurants there or visit all the tourist attractions because you don't have time. You can't use the bus yo go to work or do business because by the time you arrive at your destination half your day is gone and you are dripping in sweat. These greedy people make everyone poor. Even when there are later buses, there is only one at 10pm, so you are stuck travelling at night and then there is no transport for you to go home from tye bus station and you are forced to get ripped off by taxi drivers that charge you three times as much. The sad thing is that the transport is not even cheap. You are just paying a lot to waste your time and be uncomfortable.2026-07-03
  • reviews1★I booked four bus tickets from Saranda to Tirana online with Gjirafa Travel. On the day we went as advised half an hour early to the Saranda office in ith our luggage. The man inside the Gjirafa office told us we needed to get a taxi or walk to the bus terminus. We asked him if he could take us or else find us a taxi himself as we didn’t know from where to grab a taxi. He told us curtly we would have to find our own taxi so he did not lift a finger to assist us. Finally we managed to Gail a taxi who took us with barely enough time to go to the bus terminus where we showed the office personnel the online order and they gave us the seat allocation. All in all very disgraceful behaviour a. Will never book through Gjirafa travel ever again.2026-07-09
  • reviews1★The staff were extremely rude. We arrived 30 minutes before departure, but they shouted at us, claiming we were late. Despite already having valid online tickets, they insisted that we had to collect paper tickets from another booth. Instead of simply accepting our tickets, they took a photo of them and sent it to someone on WhatsApp. When the bus arrived, there were not enough seats for all passengers. I had to argue with the driver, who did not speak English, just to be allowed onto the bus. Even after boarding, we were forced to stand for almost five hours because there were no available seats. This experience was completely unacceptable. I expect a full refund and that a formal complaint be made to the bus company. I would not recommend this service to anyone.2026-07-13

  • reviews1★The bus just came 2 hours late, and the location indicated on the ticket was not the correct one to take the bus. Only speaking with a local we figured out that the bus is not even allowed to get access to the place indicated, and then we take a ride up to the entrance of the city, in the road, in the middle of nowhere, and the bus was very late. I needed to call 3 times for the company operator to confirm if we really were going to have anything on there. After to be on the bus, we discovered that many other people had booked at 3 pm or 5 pm and wait for all the afternoon, and the bus one came at 9 pm. That's a shame, and you should take it out from your website. That's not a serious company at all.2026-08-10

Arrived 6 hours late. Majority of the people on the bus said the woman manning the front desk and responding to WhatsApp messages (once and never again) was incredibly rude. I would not recommend this company to my worst enemy. Will be seeking refund.2026-08-12

In the email Girafa confirmed to first go to the agency of the bus company but on Google maps the agency is in a different location than the actual bud terminal where they later sent us to check in. We booked two tickets together but didn't get seats next to each other despite checking in almost one hour early. The staff and driver were rude and aggressive. Will not book this again2026-08-19

  • reviews1★The ticket purchasing system makes no sense; buying a ticket for a specific date and time doesn't even guarantee you'll be able to travel. It’s completely unclear that after buying, you don't actually receive a ticket, but just a piece of paper that means nothing and has to be exchanged for a real ticket. Nowhere is it stated that you need to go to a counter/office to exchange it, there's only information saying you must arrive 30 minutes early, which tells you absolutely nothing. The staff is neither polite nor helpful. On top of that, the air conditioning on the bus barely works. You should improve the system so that people can buy an actual ticket online with a reserved seat, without the requirement to show up early2026-08-22

  • reviews2★You need to update the instructions in your email & webpage regarding how you need to change the e-ticket to actual bus ticket in the station. Write it clearly, in all communication!! Ask the drivers even but a note on the bus store, so people realize they need to go to the office and change the tickets. In our bus, there were total chaos as people did not know this, seat numbers were all over the place and there was also 6 people overbooked to the trip which meant these people sat on the floor for 4,5 hours from Sarande to Tirana. Above this, staff memeber yelling to these poor travellers, even eventually they had done all what was asked but seats were double sold. With very small changes, much can be done!!!2024-09-17
  • reviews2★The ride was direct and smooth and the driver was good at driving; however, there were a number of things that made it an unpleasant experience. 1) The driver smoked frequently throughout the drive. In an enclosed space with no windows, quite bothersome. 2) Assigned seats is fine, but was not clear on website. We -- including my 88 year old mother -- were stuck, crowded 4 across in the back. 3) The bus was overcrowded. People were sitting on crates in the aisle. 4) This left the bus very hot, despite it being comfortable outside. The air vents above we're almost never on and the driver frequently turned on the heat... Leaving the back of the bus painfully warm. We all ended up rather ill by the end of the trip.2025-03-18

  • reviews2★Bus was too hot and air conditioning was not working properly. I booked a ticket from Sarande to Tirana airport. The ticket did not state that you have to go to another area to get to Tirana airport as they do not interchange at the bus station. This is not worth it as you will have to catch another taxi from Tirana bus station to tirana central station to go to Tirana airport. We wasted our money on the second part of this trip as we had not enough time to get to tirana central station so we had to take a taxi from Tirana bus station. Please ensure you communicate this to customers as it is misleading especially when they do not know the country well.2025-09-28

He should’ve checked the tickets and the seat numbers.2026-06-28
  • reviews2★Our family enjoyed visiting Albania, but our experience with this bus service was disappointing. When I booked our trip from Tirana to Sarandë, I accidentally purchased one extra round-trip ticket because my daughter had already purchased her own ticket separately. I realized the mistake immediately and tried several times to contact customer support by message, email, and phone to cancel the extra ticket, but I was never able to reach anyone or receive assistance. The outbound trip went smoothly. We received QR codes, and the boarding process was simple. Unfortunately, the return trip was completely different. We did not receive QR codes for the return, and we were unaware that check-in had to be completed at least 30 minutes before departure. The process was not as clear as it had been for the outbound trip. As a result, my two children and I, including myself as a disabled traveler, were unable to use the seats we had purchased. We spent much of the five-hour journey standing or sitting on the floor, which was very difficult and not what we expected after purchasing our tickets in advance. I hope the company improves its customer support and makes the check-in process more consistent and clearly communicated between outbound and return trips. I also hope they will consider refunding the extra ticket I tried to cancel and providing appropriate compensation for the return trip. Despite this experience, we truly enjoyed our visit to Albania and hope future travelers have a smoother experience.2026-06-30

  • reviews2★The ticket said we need to go the butrinti office 30 minutes before the departure. Turns out you dont need anything from there, we went there just to be informed that we have to get somewhere else (where we actually came from). So it was a waste of time and money. They said that we should get a taxi, and becuse there were many people for the same reason we thought we can get a cab together then to save money, but the taxi driver said that he only takes two people at a time (there was enough place for 4 people). The 30 minutes is probably given, so you cant walk to the station. Fortunately, we were early, at the station they said that we only have to be there 10 minutes before. So its a complete scam.2026-07-08
  • reviews2★I don’t understand why I should pre book a ticket with apple wallet function. At the bus, thej wanted to see the mejl (several times) - not the apple wallet tickets. What was the point with the bar code? I had no reserved seat, and had to wait outside the bus for 1/2 an hour, and after persons with reserved sests entered the bus I could choose among the remaining seats. In Sweden, if you pay with an app, you immediately recieve a ticket in your apole wallet with reservated seat number - on the bus they just scan the bar code.2026-07-18

  • reviews3★The bus left on time which was very good. Also the bus company let to change the time of the tickets. The bus was a bit worn out, it smelled a bit of mould. Also it was weird that the bus took the gasoline when the passengers were on board not before and it stopped in random places to take more passengers on although there was no place. Therefor the journey was longer as well.2025-08-02
  • reviews3★The ride took 6 hours instead of 4 so we almost missed our flight, the seats were extremely uncomfortable and the air condition was not working well.2025-08-11
  • reviews3★Guaranteed seat is completely misleading. The bus company couldn’t care less. They told me that there is only 2 seats left, and I had to wait 1,5h for the next bus. Digitalization is an alien term for the Albanian transportation.2025-08-18

  • reviews3★The people at check in need to be courteous and helpful2025-08-26
  • reviews3★Hi. We were not explained on where the bus will drop us and that we still need to travel to the airport. The driver just stopped and told us that is the depot.2025-08-27
  • reviews3★The journey went well but the organization for boarding the bus was not good. We purchased our ticket online. Arriving at the bus stop I show my ticket online, a person lets me board the bus. 10 minutes later she asks to check then makes us get off the bus. He was wrong about the destination. There we want to take another bus and we are told to go to a counter to exchange our online ticket for a paper ticket. 15 min wait. I thought the bus was going to wait for me and so I put my luggage in this other bus which went well to Tirana. Anyway, the bus left with our suitcases! A gentleman immediately called the driver and we finally collected our luggage. Departure was announced at 10:45 a.m. arrival at 3 p.m. in Tirana. We left at 11:15 a.m. and arrived at 4 p.m.2025-09-01
  • reviews3★1) It was necessary to arrive 30 minutes early but the driver only opened the door at the picket time, even dit was raining. The bus departed some minutes late. 2) there is no wifi or energy inside the bus 3) the stop time in the middle of the journey was not correct. The departure was late again 4) the arrival time was late2025-10-17
  • reviews3★very old bus. uncomfortable ride.2026-06-13
  • reviews3★Firstly it was an hour late arriving at least, secondly the seats were unbelievably uncomfortable and cramped. Bus driver needs an attitude adjustment. The stop was way too long, especially that we were already late.2026-06-22
  • reviews3★It is disappointing to see they STILL fill the buses over the capacity and that the safety still isn’t good enough. I was moved from my seat to the seat next to the driver, which is ok, but the seatbelt didn’t work, and it would have felt a bit safer sitting upfront with a belt on, as the traffic-culture is rather ‘heated’ 😬😂 Aircontitioning could definetly be better, but hey- at least this this there was one ;)2026-07-07
  • reviews3★The journey was correct, but the ticket and website didn't warn that the office and pick up point has changed, I had to take a taxi to arrive at time.2026-07-09
  • reviews3★On Sunday we took the bus at 9:30 in Saranda which arrived to Tirana with a delay of 47 minutes, at 14:47 instead of 13:50.2026-07-13

  • reviews4★Easy to buy but more tips about needing to check in and directions would be helpful2024-09-21
  • reviews4★The booking process and the payment have become much quicker, that is great. It would be great if the online ticket would work at the bus right away instead of going to the ticket office still to get a manually issued paper ticket, especially when there are many tourists and long lines. Overall though every driver and every ticket office clerk has been very friendly and helpful, thank you for that! I will always prefer the bus for my many travels in Albania!!2024-11-13

  • reviews4★I was surprised with the E ticket we had to check in and manually written in a list and allocated a seat number and issued a manual/hand written ticket? It also would have been easier to be told that we had to check in with the E ticket2025-09-11
  • reviews4★The travel information was complicated to understand. I was going from sadande to tirana airport, while booking it said there was a change or transfer but for the transfer I would have to change from tirana north and south to tirana central station which was 7km away. This was very confusing because actually it was very easy, the bus from the same travel provider was directly from the north and south bus stop itself and there was no change of station. It was change of bus at the same station.2025-09-14
  • reviews4★The driver did a great job but the bus was a bit dirty and the curtains needed washed quite badly.2025-11-22
  • reviews4★late departure but the driver was fast so we arrive still close to the arrival time. i just dont get it, why i still need to go to the ticket office after buying to secure my seat if it is already a guaranteed seat. if it just the same way i could just buy direct to the ticketing office and save for the online booking fee.2025-11-27
  • reviews4★In the bus from Tirana to Saranda and vice versa seats are much too small to sit next to each other - compared to larger busses.2026-01-09

  • reviews4★It might be good to receive number of place at once in electronic ticket and have opportunity to choose the place. Not understandable while I having an electronic ticket should have a check in and to receive a paper with number if my place. Several times during the trip the bus stopped due to the technical reason. It might be good to fix all technical issues before the trip.2026-06-03
  • reviews4★Nice experience, good driver .2026-06-21
  • reviews4★Lots of confusion, there were three different busses going from Sarande to Tirane and the drivers had no clue what bus we were supposed to be on. They sent us to the correct one 5 minutes before departure and thankfully we got two seats together but some people were separated from their group.2026-06-23
  • reviews4★The positive thing is that we had a garanteed seat, which is why we choose to travel with you, since we didn’t had that on the other bus on the outward journey. And we had a pause in the half of the journey, what was good too. But what I didn’t like was that the bus was very old and not so clean. And the air conditioner was not working so well.2026-06-23
  • reviews4★Buena atención! El personal me resolvió un problema con mi Ticket que perdí. Sin embargo, pienso que no deberían trabajar con compañías poco formales como el bus de Saranda a Tirana . Posterior a ello me cambiaron la categoría del bus que había comprado inicialmente (qué era más barato) .2026-06-23

  • reviews5★Gute Organisation, pünktliche Abfahrt. Ich würde mir nur wünschen, dass der Busfahrer eine Durchsage macht, wie lange die Pause ist.2025-07-12
  • reviews5★My opinion is that Gjirafa Travel itself, as the website where the tickets are purchased, works very well. My problem was with Trans Butrinti, since they assigned me the back seat even though I purchased my tickets 3 months in advance - bear in mind the back seats are 5 in total and very close to each other. Also, these seats can't be reclined given it is the last row. 2 ladies bought their tickets right after me, since they did not have an existing reservation like I did, and they were still given front reclinable seats. They should prioritize passengers with existing reservations or let passengers choose their seat while the are buying the tickets online. Lastly, they allow for a couple passengers to travel standing, which is very dangerous.2025-07-16

It might be a good idea to put a note on the booking site to let people know they have to show their online booking at the bus station office so they can get their seat number. Some people didn't realise this and were confused about where to sit.2025-09-29

I’ve also been using their eSIMs while traveling across the Balkans, and they’ve worked really well the entire time. Having reliable internet has made moving between countries so much easier.

  • reviews1★reported thisI had bought tickets for 2 of us but the bus was overbooked and they allowed the people who did not buy tickets to have seats. We had to stand in the middle of bus, around 14 of ys had to stand. The bus was overcrowded and very unsafe. It was so crowded that the door to bus wasn’t fully closed. Horrible experience. The driver did not care. Especially that are disabled with hearing loss.2025-07-16

Très déçu, j'espère être remboursé2025-08-26
  • reviews1★reported thisbad experience where no bus top clear sign, bus doesn't show on time and arrived already full and seems no system. Buses are running very little in peak of season. It seems the country not well prepared for tourism in an organized way.2025-08-27

  • reviews1★reported thisUnfortunately, I cannot say anything positive. I bought a ticket online for the trip from Himarë to Sarandë, but your driver arrived in a minibus that was already full; he left me and several other people behind, assuring us that another bus would arrive in 10 minutes—which never happened. I nearly missed my ferry to Corfu and my flight!😡2026-07-22

  • reviews1★reported thisThe bus from Himara to Saranda was completely overcrowded. More than half of the passengers had to stand, even though we had paid for a guaranteed seat included in the ticket price. Some people couldn’t even get on in Himara because there was no space left. It was extremely hot and felt very unsafe with so many people standing. Definitely not worth the price ,very disappointing.2026-08-26

  • reviews2★The Bus arrived late, and we had to wait by the street since there is no structure or bus stop. Also many people did the hole journey standing since there was no free sitting. It's incomprehensible how someone pays for a ticket and has no place to sit.. The AC was turned on almost at the end of the journey...2026-06-10

  • reviews1★reported thisWe booked a bus leaving Himare for Saranda at 11am. No bus arrived until 12:10am. There was no contact by Gjirafa or by the Olgeno bus operator so we had no idea if or when the bus might turn up. By the time it finally arrived the bus was totally overcrowded and it was difficult to find luggage space as it was a small bus. Many passengers were standing and the trip was hot and uncomfortable. It was the worst travel experience we have had since stating our travelling in early April.2025-05-21
  • reviews1★reported thisWe paid for bus tickets up front but the bus never turned up. So we paid for tickets and had to pay 50€ for a taxi to our hotel. We would recommend NOT buying any tickets in advance as you will be left out of pocket. Very disappointed..2025-06-05
  • reviews1★reported thisThe bus never came.2025-07-04
  • reviews1★reported thisThe bus did not come. I did not get a refund. It was hot, no information and the customer service rejected my complaint and a refund. I will never book again with gjirafatravel. Very bad experience.2025-08-18

  • reviews1★reported thisThe bus didn't arrive u paid 11 euros for the bus not to show up i demand compensation now because of this inconvenience i had to spend the night in Himare and i already booked a night in Saranda so i'm bleeding money because the bus didn't bother to show up at the exact stopping station indicated (4 guys like me were impacted by the situation as well )2026-07-05

Second bus was an hour late and driver was yelling at passengers upon boarding. There was no seat available so I had to sit in the aisle. Actual drive was rough.2024-10-09

  • reviews1★The booking process was fine however the experience was not. 5 persons had to stand for the first 30 minutes until seats became available. On two occasions one of the storage lockers flew open and baggage’s flown out of the bus. Fortunately one of the passengers noticed the bags strewn across the road.2025-09-16

  • reviews1★Worst bus company ever. Departure from Himara to Saranda 11.40am. 10 minutes before I get a text that the bus departure location was changed because of police blockage. To get to the new departure point would have been 40minutes walk outside Himara. No taxi available. Olgeno bus company offert no refund, no alternative busride. 30ppl were left behind in Himara center with pre-paid tickets. This my 3rd busride in Albania & everytime it was a desaster. All bus companies here are fraud.2026-07-05
  • reviews1★We had tickets, and was at the point of pickup according to the details on the ticket (”click here” for direktions). The bus did not stop to pick us up! After texting you you said we were in the wrong place - all 6 of us, 3 different groups, all following the direktions sent out by YOU.2026-07-20
  • reviews1★The driver didn't want to let us on the bus. He said we must pay cash 20€ and that we must wait for the next bus at 14:40. Not only us but all the other people who have online ticket are still waiting, and we don't really know how long we have to wait. That's scandal that he wanted us to pay 20€ cash when we already paid 20€ online. Here, everybody hopes that we can travel with the next bus and there will be places. The driver was absolutely scam.2026-08-24

  • reviews1★reported thisBus was not there. They said it left at 16:00.2025-04-20
  • reviews1★reported thisMy experience was very negative, as upon arriving at the terminal in Tirana, the driver of the Tirana - Vlore route had no idea about the purchase made online, there was no identification on the bus or any indication of the company. I had to ask several people and in the end, I was able to board the Tirana - Vlore bus, but the driver had many doubts about the validity of the purchase. The gjirafa travel website offered me the option to buy a return ticket to Tirana for 16:30, and I arrived at the Vlore bus station at 16:10, but the drivers of other buses told me that the last bus from Vlore to Tirana had left at 16:00 and that there were no more. Therefore, the information on the gjirafa site does not reflect reality. I had to return to Tirana by taxi, spending three times more than the cost of the bus tickets, as my flight was scheduled for that night from Tirana airport.2025-06-25
  • reviews1★reported thisYou sold me a return ticket from Vlore to Tirana for a bus trip that doesn't exist - I ended up having to randomly book a hotel here because the buses that go back to Tirana stop running by 4 pm (or earlier) and you sold me a ticket for one that leaves at 4:30. I also ended up having to buy a toothbrush, toothpaste, a phone charger, etc., in addition to food - ended up spending like €40 I hadn't planned on beside the €7 for the ticket back. Will you people be reimbursing me for all this? I'm wearing the same clothing I did on the way over here because obviously I have nothing else to wear. I would not have bothered trying to visit this town if I knew it'd end up being a total fiasco like this, and even though the town is nice overall the experience was obviously a bad one. I will never buy bus tickets through you guys again and will be telling everyone about the ordeal I ended up enduring because of you.2026-02-10
  • reviews1★reported thisNo bus came. Currently asking for a refund but they don't answer.2026-07-12
  • reviews2★reported thisThe bus didn't come for us as return. Even if we were at the bus stop 30 mins before and waited for it ofr 2 hours. Since it was the last bus we had to go by taxi.2026-07-09
  • reviews3★reported thisThings to improve : my journey to vlore was late by 1 hour. There was no marker or logo to identify the bus. return journey, bus was early to depart. I would still use the bus, but would help if the following are improved : - make it easy to identify the bus - punctuality2025-04-22
  • reviews3★reported thisIt was very confusing, the bus left 20 minutes earlier than what the ticket said and didn't even drive to the city.2026-07-15

  • reviews1★I paid for a ticket and also paid an additional fee to change the departure time. However, I was not allowed to board because, according to the staff, my ticket was not valid. I called the customer service offices to try to resolve the issue, but unfortunately no one was able to help me. I paid for both the ticket and the time change, so I would like an explanation as to why I was denied boarding and I request a refund for the amount I paid.2026-08-29
  • reviews3★The service from Gifada was great, easy and we took the bus no problem from Tiranë to Vlore- the bus itself was the problem. My 13 year old son had to sit in the front with a broken seat belt, mine was not working either. Cheap, easy to use but not the safest though that may be bus travel in Albania and not Gifada’s fault.2025-05-12
  • reviews3★The bus pick up/drop off location in Vlorë is missing. I have no idea where to meet my bus tomorrow. Also the transfer from the airport bus location to the Vlorë - north/south - bus location is impossible. No instruction or accommodation whatsoever - especially with luggage. I took a taxi and figured it out.2026-04-21
  • reviews3★Vlore to Tirana airport, bus terminated at a station NOWHERE near the airport ! Cost twice as much to reach proper destination.2026-08-30
  • reviews4★A ticket is not needed. They let anyone on the bus and this ticket does not guarantee a seat. If one bus is full you can go on the next one, so no, the system is not yet working for Albania. Until you assign seat numbers and staff understand that you bought your ticket online and you get a seat before others that do not have a ticket, i won't use this again.2025-05-08
  • reviews4★The bus left 30 minutes too late ... After we arrived, everyone still needed to pay :-( You should do this in front. Too many people ... not very comfortable in travelling for 2u30.

  • reviews1★reported thisIt was a very Bad experience, since we all (8people) wanted for the bus for which we has already paid and no driver showed up. So I expect from you to transfer the money back to my account. I and all the other 7 people had to pay 2 private taxis to get to Himare!2025-05-02
  • reviews1★reported thisMy bus never showed up and when I called the company they said the line didn’t exist2025-10-18
  • reviews1★reported thisWhen we got to the bus terminal, the space wasn’t clean and. it well organized. But the worst part is that the bus just wants functioning and they told us we had to wait till the next day to take a bus. We had obviously already paid but we’re not able to get in the bus. A group of us were all in the same bad situation with no other way to get to our destination. Neither Girafa or the bus agency gave any warning. They did not tell us in advance that there was a problem with the bus. We are going to demand a reimbursement.2026-06-03
  • reviews1★reported thisI arrived at the bus station 20 minutes early and the bus already left. I had to pay 40 euros for a taxi to get to Himare. Now I am worried about making the bus back to Tirana and then taking a different bus to Prizren.2026-06-10

  • reviews1★The air conditioner was not working at all, making the entire trip a complete nightmare. Additionally, the driver did not announce the stops, so if you don't have internet access to track each stop he made, you could easily end up lost.2025-04-29
  • reviews1★Horrible ride no ac it was like 35 degrees in the back complete catastrophe2025-05-08
  • reviews1★Never had anything like this before, first the driver tells me that it’s fool, although i made my booking days in advance, he made me sit in a stool against any safety policy and client confort, i travel for 5h grabbing anywhere i could to stay safe and moving to relieve my back pain. I don’t wish this to anybody2025-05-18
  • reviews1★Awful service. The website makes it look like modern coaches, possibly with toilets and at least decent air conditioning. Instead this was an old coach with terrible air conditioning. Not only that but there were a good 15 people standing the aisle for most of the journey. So dangerous and surely illegal. I didn't take the return journey and instead hired a taxi at great expense to avoid this horrendous bus. Never again.2025-07-08
  • reviews1★Driver was driving dangerously, constantly texting and scanning QR codes whilst driving. He had several phone calls where he was shouting in Albanian. The arrival time was delayed by over 1.5 hours because of his poor driving and the rest stop which was supposed to be 10 minutes but turned out to be 45. Terrible experience. Rudest driver I have ever met. I booked the bus back to the airport but will pay extra for a taxi instead. I’m going to leave 1 star review online to advise other tourists not to use this terrible service2025-07-20
  • reviews1★got sick, couldn't refund2025-08-14
  • reviews1★We were on a bus with no air conditioning, about 33 degrees outside and almost 40 degrees inside. It was an ordeal, suffering through the five-hour journey. This is UNACCEPTABLE. They can't provide service in those conditions. One girl had a panic attack from the heat. It's disrespectful to charge 15 euros per person per ride. It's disgusting to me that they're offering something like that.2025-08-18

  • reviews1★Your driver was very loud, appeared to be impatient and rude. I don't speak albanian so I can't be certain. His conversations were loud and argumentative. He spent the entire journey, approximately 4 hours, on his phone while driving around hairpin bends on the side of a mountain. He was face timing, shouting on his phone, texting on his phone while driving. I am visiting from the UK and wondered if I was actually going to make it home! He's an incredibly ignorant man who took no care of his passengers2025-09-13
  • reviews1★Horrible experience!! I reached out to you via WhatsApp with no response. Your website declares guaranteed seat when I bought on your platform, yet the bus was way overbooked. I had to stand the entire 5 hour drive. There was probably 10-15 people standing. Some standing down in the back door stoop while the driver drove with the door open. Very unsafe, very uncomfortable and definitely not what I paid for. Me and 1 of my children had to stand for a long bus ride through the mountains. And then no response from you when I reached out!! Yeah, never will I use your platform again. I am currently in the process of filing a report with the Albanian travel authority regarding the unsafe conditions and will report you as well for the blatant false claims of having a guaranteed seat. I have plenty of pictures of this overbooked and over crowded bus. Safety of your customers obviously means nothing!2025-09-13
  • reviews1★Arrival time was meant to be 10:40 and due to multiple stops in the middle of the journey it ended up being 12:20 - 1.5 hours extra2026-06-05
  • reviews1★It was awful and we sat on the floor the whole time and it was two hours late2026-06-11
  • reviews1★I strongly advise against traveling with Olgeno Travel. The bus was extremely old, and the air conditioning didn’t work, making the journey very uncomfortable. On top of that, the driver was very rude to the passengers throughout the trip. It was such a disappointing experience that, even though I had already paid for my return ticket with them, I chose not to use it and traveled back with Riviera instead. Riviera was far more professional, comfortable, and reliable, and I highly recommend them to anyone traveling between Tirana and Himarë. I would not use Olgeno Travel again.2026-08-03

  • reviews2★The driver was making a lot of stops so that means that is not a direct bus and instead of arriving and 6:40 we arrived 2 hours late, also the wanted me to take a sit in the part of the stairs of the bus when I obviously paid a sit I will never recommend this because in the website you don’t specify2025-07-05
  • reviews2★The bus didn't leave on time. When it started after an hour, the driver had to fill up with gas and get some coffee. Then there were constant breaks; some passengers were dropped off directly at the hotel, some not. Instead of three hours, the journey took six hours. Pay ticket online is more expensive.2025-07-07
  • reviews2★The travel was supposed to be 3 h and 10 minutes, but ended up 5 hours. Bad seats, overfilled, so that more people say on the floor. Hardly no aircondition.2026-06-18
  • reviews2★I paid for a guaranteed seat ticket in advance, from Tirana to Himarë, got to the terminal 15 minutes early, and the bus was full. They made me sit on the floor, and continued to cram ppl in the whole way there. The bus which was supposed to be 2 1/2 hours total, was 5 1/2! Not direct like it says, as it stops for anyone who flags it down. Props to them for giving so many ppl a ride at least…2026-06-18
  • reviews2★please don‘t ask passengers to be early at South Parking… This is not a terminal!!! No waiting room, toiles, counter etc… One hour waiting in the bus, terrible heat, last 20 minutes only A C, with loud working motor of course. I had to drink more water, and asked for a toilet break 2 hours later, first driver information , was 5 minutes. Could have been waiting fifteen minutes but 30 was really hard! Zéro information about delay during the trip, to at least give your approximative arriving time 😟2026-06-21

  • reviews2★Chaotic experience Bus broken toilet and aircon useless2026-07-07
  • reviews3★According to the scheduled arrival time the trip should have taken 3 hours and 10 minutes, but in reality it was 4 and a half hours. The timetable should be updated with realistic arrival times. Also, when going to Tirana, in Himare the bus stopped at a different location, not where it was stated on our ticket.2024-09-08
  • reviews3★Good that you have an overview in this platform of all the routes, however, bus lines can be late and there’s no info or whatsover on customer service line or telephone numbers on where to call to get more information about delays, cancellations and other topics2024-09-10
  • reviews3★bus took way longer than 3 hours like it states, you do this drive enough to know it takes longer than that so this should be updated as it’s misleading and people may have plans which would be missed due to how long it takes! also not guaranteed a seat which isn’t good on a long hot coach2025-06-18
  • reviews3★Overall it was good but many things could be improved like ac and planning more time for the journey since there’s construction and many stops along the way. Maybe add clearer indications at the bus station too.2025-08-08

  • reviews3★Bus delayed, driver could have been friendlier, bus seemed to have been overbooked as one passenger didn’t have a seat2026-07-30
  • reviews3★Mainly, the driver let Himarë bound passengers off outside the town instead of in town. This may have been because the bus was an hour behind schedule.2026-07-31

  • reviews4★Booking was easy, showing the bus attendant the ticket was easy. However.. the bus area in Tirane is literally so gross; Trash is EVERYWHERE. The bus itself is old, not updated, and dirty. It said direct, which to me means no stops. We stopped to pick up numerous people along the way, which was efficient and quick, but not what was described. The ride itself wasn’t bad though. AC worked, seats reclined.2025-09-09

  • reviews4★Overall not a bad experience. Booking was easy. However it was a bit confusing trying to find which bus to get on when departing Tirana as the bus station was simply a massive car park with different companies and busses everywhere. Bus left a little late as well and the journey took longer than expected. I do believe this is something you expect when travelling to Albania though so all part of the fun travelling experience!2026-06-14

  • reviews3★reported thisThe bus Vlore to Tirane Ok it arrived on time, though it left 30 minutes after my ticket time of 9 AM- seats barely space for my knees; Returning tirane-vlore the bus seats were cramped and I had to sit sideways and the bus was quite bumpy-rough ride. I was really angry that the vlore dropoff was 150 meters north of Haso Hiper market- not anywhere close to the Vlore bus station. Lucky it stopped raining and I had no luggage. I walked 1.5 KM to a buss stop on the main boulevard. Upsetting they drop in the middle of 10 taxis...no local bus service that I know of2026-01-07

  • reviews1★I had a very bad experience with this supposedly called bus company.

  • reviews1★I am writing to formally lodge a complaint regarding a transfer service I recently used with your company, traveling from Fier to Tirana. The experience was, without exaggeration, one of the most unpleasant journeys I have ever endured, and I believe it falls far below any acceptable standard of passenger transport. I would like to bring the following serious issues to your attention: 1. No Air Conditioning The minivan used for the transfer had no functioning air conditioning whatsoever. Given the extreme heat conditions during the journey, the temperature inside the vehicle became unbearable. Passengers were subjected to intense heat for the entire duration of the trip, which poses not only a serious comfort issue but also a genuine health and safety concern. 2. Extremely Poor Vehicle Condition The interior of the minivan was in a deplorable state of cleanliness. The seats were visibly and heavily soiled, making it deeply unpleasant to sit in. The overall condition of the vehicle was entirely unacceptable for a paid passenger transport service. 3. Driver Smoking Inside the Vehicle Most disturbingly, the driver was smoking cigarettes inside the closed minivan throughout the journey, with no window open to allow ventilation. This is not only extremely disrespectful to passengers but is also a serious health hazard — particularly for those with respiratory conditions — and likely a violation of public transport regulations. The combination of these three issues made the journey genuinely uncomfortable and unacceptable. I paid for a transport service and received conditions that no paying customer should ever be subjected to. In light of the above, I am formally requesting a full or partial refund for the amount paid for this transfer. I expect your company to take this complaint seriously and respond with a concrete resolution. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you require any further details regarding this journey. I look forward to your prompt response. Sincerely, Gabriel2026-06-12
  • reviews1★We booked on line, when we arrived at the station there was a random assortment of old buses with no staff in attendance to assist which bus to get on. One driver indicated that his bus was going to Tirana, we showed him our tickets and he indicated get on board. The bus was appropriately a 20 seater, old, dirty and the seat was so close I had sit the whole way with my knees in the aisle. The bus traveled at a steady 70 kmh and we had no air conditioning for the next 2.5 hours ( the air-conditioning kicked into life twice for about 5 minutes each time) in 36 degrees heat. An experience I would not like to repeat.2026-08-02
  • reviews1★We weren’t able to get on the second bus because we came to the station at 12:20 not 11:20. And the trip started at 9:15 not at 9:002026-08-03
  • reviews1★it was awfullll it was a small car and all seats were occupied which doesnt make sense, we came there driver like yeah i have one plastic chiar you can sit , i was like we are 3 ppl are you mad? its a 2 hour 50 minute drive, he ended up finding another chair so two of my friends sat at the middel while i with 188m height sat in small area right at the entrance door for 80% of the drive i was around ppls feet on the dirty ground then driver proceeded to pick up more ppl by the road so he basically got ppl out of your app which is bs idk it was horrible i was dirty and sweaty whole time since i was under sun + when we first found he was like no im not your driver afte 3 minutes someone from side probably with better english understood checked and told him that he should call us back so he did and was like sorry you were right you are my passengers2026-08-11
  • reviews1★Absolutely terrible experience. The bus was old, dirty and clearly not properly maintained. The worst part was that there was no air conditioning at all, despite the extremely hot weather. The journey was uncomfortable from start to finish, with unbearable heat and poor conditions inside the bus. On top of that, the information about where and how to catch the bus was extremely unclear and confusing. For tourists, the whole experience felt completely outdated and disorganized. It honestly felt like travelling in the Stone Age when it comes to tourist services. Albania really needs to improve its public transport system and make it much more tourist-friendly. I would definitely not recommend this bus service.2026-08-21
  • reviews2★No good communication at arrival. Didn't say any name on the bus. No AC in the bus so we were sweating like animals. Just happy to arrive in time and to the right destination.2025-06-13
  • reviews2★The first time using Girafa was fine, but I don't understand why you are offering an esim and the way it appears makes one think that you cannot book a trip without it. I regret buying it. The second trip did not happen. I tried booking bus fare for today back to my city and the system would not confirm. Now I have en email saying I didn't complete the process when it was your system. I was lucky. I went to bus terminal in Tirane and found a bus so I could go home. I better not see any more trips than the one.2025-07-10
  • reviews2★Firstly the drivers knew nothing in English. Then we drove like 2 hours 30 minutes, but they dropped us off at the middle of nowhere. Then if we wanted to really get to the airport, like we booked, we had to pay plus 4 euros to another bus take us to our destination which was another 1 hour. I don’t recommend2025-08-31
  • reviews2★Well. At least kin Vlore, I never know which of the two bus stations to get the buses. The last time I went to the station near Old Town. No Gjirafa travel bus signs, do I got on a bus that was there. A day ago, I paid for a ticket and again had no idea where to go or what bus to get on. I won't be buying any more tickets in advance because I don't use them and I wind up paying twice.2025-12-02
  • reviews3★The actual bus service is much different than what it seems on your website (at least for the Albania destinations). The buses are the smaller ones run by private individuals and not the larger buses you would expect. Plus there are no terminals just random stops2026-05-03
  • reviews3★The bus drivers was not so happy for a prepaid ticket from Gjirafa - they want cash. But they accepted it with som discontent. Many of the buses have no AC and no windows to open (because they are built for AC). This is probably feedback to the bus companies, so please bring the message forward. As a tourist we would gladly pay twice or even triple and more for bus tickets with better busses that have functioning AC.2026-07-06

  • reviews5★Viaggio tranquillo e confortevole2026-08-19
  • reviews5★Good experience, especially the ability to reserve and to pay for tickets by credit card. The service fee is reasonable (10%) for that piece of mind. However, for higher frequency routes, budget travellers are better off just showing up at the station and taking the next available bus - it’s slight cheaper to pay cash directly to the bus driver.2026-08-30

  • reviews1★My bus from Shkoder to Himare arrived 2 hours later than indicated and I was not dropped at the indicated drop off location either. My ticket clearly stated Himare bus station as the drop off location and the driver stopped outside a hostel which was a 20 minute walk from the bus station and therefore a 30 minute walk from where I was staying. A very rude and arrogant man then got on telling me and everyone else we need to get off and that we should’ve asked the travel company (ie: you) to be more specific about where we were going to be dropped and he was extremely aggressive about it. Eventually we got him and the actual driver to drop us 5 minutes further into the centre as we were nowhere near. However this was still not the designated drop off spot and we were all extremely unimpressed. I would have booked a different ticket had I known it was going to drop me nowhere near the centre/bus station.2025-07-17

  • reviews1★Bus had 4h delay. Olgeno Travels is the name. This is the worst company I have ever dealt with. You should probably stop working with them. I will never use your service again.2026-08-13
  • reviews2★Ride with Riviera tours from Tirana to Himare – absolutely horrific. It was 35-40 degrees inside the bus without the possiblity to open windows. It was close to panic mode I'd say, as we knew we'd be sitting in those tiny seats for 3-4 hours with almost no oxygen and sweat literally pouring down everyone's faces. Also, the driver was both rude and didn't have any pull to be of help – only to collect people's money as quickly as possible. At one point I also tried calling Giraja, but got a snappy, unhelpful response to "just go!" when asking about where the bus would actually leave from, as this was not exactly clear on the ticket or the internet. The return bus with Olgeno as the bus operator was way better. The bus was cooler, more spacious and the driver was helpful, albeit "Balkan intense". It was still not clear though where the bus would be picking us up in Himare as the ticket, internet searches and people at our destination all said different things. After a call directly to Olgeno, that was clarified by a helpful representative. To note: the return bus was delayed by 40 minutes or so. Overall experience with Gjirafa would've been better if they actually tried to help you when you call them, if they would greatly discount the ticket price when they know they have a bus that is dangerous to travel in (especially as a non-acclimatized tourist), and properly inform the passengers of how drop-off and pick-up works in Albania – this should not have to be discovered at the very last minute. Would not book with Gjirafa again, but go straight to the bus operators that are reputable or rent my own car.2025-08-19
  • reviews2★Aren't the buses too old for road traffic? Are they still safe? We traveled four times. On the first trip, there were problems with the seats. We were given tickets in Albanian. No one understood that the seats were assigned. No one explained it. It was chaos. Please translate the tickets into English or have someone explain it to the passengers. On the last trip, we arrived late at the airport. The bus driver picked up hitchhikers on the road and dropped them off where they wanted to go. That's not OK. Luckily, we made it to our return flight on time. This needs to be better organized.2025-09-16
  • reviews2★We traveled from Himara to Tirana. There was no signage for the bus stop anywhere in Himara. We arrived an hour later than expected. The destination bus station was on the outskirts of Tirana, so we had to take another bus to the city center. This could definitely be improved.2025-09-21

  • reviews4★The online booking process was quick and straightforward, which I really appreciated. However, I encountered several issues during the actual travel experience. When I presented my ticket to the drivers, it took quite a bit of explaining before they accepted it, which made things stressful. On one of my trips, I was even directed to the wrong bus for the second leg of the journey and ended up having to pay a second fare. Additionally, the departure times listed during booking didn’t match the actual schedules—for example, I booked a 7 PM bus, but the operator informed me that only a 3 PM bus was running that day (which I only found out after calling the tour operator just in case). Overall, while the platform is easy to use, better coordination and communication with local bus operators is definitely needed to ensure a smoother travel experience.2025-06-01

  • reviews3★reported thisThe bus was overbooked and priority was given to locals. At least 5 passengers were left behind and 3 passengers had to sit on the floor of the bus for 2 hours! Including through an international border. The van was very old and didn’t have AC, the driver then drove with the door open. We were grateful for the fresh air but very dangerous. We got to our destination so 2 star but would never book with this company again!2025-07-07
  • reviews5★reported thisThe bus was over booked - people had to stand in the aisle and get out before the border (6), walk through and get back on. The bus was old, hot and stuffy - the driver was very good considering his load. In hindsight, we would have excepted the taxi drivers offer of driving 2 of us at €70! Im glad it was not a long journey!2026-05-05

  • reviews1★It was a scam. Terrible experience. I was traveling on August 3, 2025 from Pristina to Thessaloniki with the company Gmica Travel. I booked the tickets from your site.

  • reviews1★It was a disaster, the bus was old with many defect recliners, overcrowded so people had to stand, no airco, to toilet. The driver picked up local people on the way and dropped them off at a different location while this was supposed to be a nonstop journey of two hours. We arrived after 2:45 hours. I cancelled the return ticket and took a taxi back. Never again.2025-09-08
  • reviews1★It’s definitely the worst experience I had in Europe in a bus. Similar to a bad one I had in Uganda, but in Uganda it left on time. Please, re-think about what you’re doing. I’m taking the chance to honestly tell you, you’re such a horrible company. So much to improve. There was the assistant of the driver smoking while the bus was on the road. I have asthma and was getting all that smoke and had to cover myself not to smell it. But of course this wasn’t the only bad thing that happened, just put yourself together.2025-09-13

  • reviews2★Për të filluar, furgoni nuk kishte ajër të kondicionuar ose dritare dhe në gusht... brenda kishte një sauna, kështu që shoferi vendosi të hapte derën e furgonit dhe të ngiste ashtu... Gjithashtu, dukej sikur furgoni do të hiqte dorë nga udhëtimi në mes të autostradës, e di që është një udhëtim i shpejtë dhe i lirë, por ne jemi prapë njerëz dhe presim të paktën pak siguri, unë jam nga Amerika Latine dhe as atje nuk kemi këtë lloj udhëtimi... përvojë e tmerrshme.2025-08-12

It was good that with it made a lot of stops that made us able to buy things along the way and take some bathrooms breaks. But the online scheadule for the time the ride would arrive in Pristina were off by 1 hour and 15 min, you really shoud updatr this as sometimes people are depending on the real arriving time.2024-10-22

Website thoshte qe per te kapur autobusin e fundit per Shkoder, duhet ta merrja autobusin ne ora 16:40 per te arriitur ne Prizren ne 18:15, dhe pastaj ne 18:30 nga Prizreni per Shkoder. Kur arrita ne stacion te autobuseve ne Prishtine, shoferi i autobusit per Prizren me tha qe nuk arrijne asnjehere ne Prizren para ores 18:35. Domethene do ta kisha humbur komplet mundesine per te mberritur ne Shkoder ate nate po te isha bazuar vetem ne informatat ne Gjirafa. Gjate asaj kohe morra vesh qe kishte autobus qe shkonte ne Ulqin, me ndalese ne Shkoder dhe perfundova duke e marre ate opsion.2025-07-04

6 riders report the bus sells more tickets than it has seats, forcing some passengers to stand the whole trip or wait for the next bus. We lose money and trust when we oversell: buyers get bumped, and 35 of 53 reviews praise this line, so the problem is fixable with better seat counts.

  • reviews1★reported thisI took this “bus” from Skopje to Pristina and it was honestly a very disappointing experience. Instead of a proper bus, it was a small, old van, completely overcrowded. There were more passengers than seats, and at some point along the route, additional people got on and had to stand for the rest of the journey. There was essentially no proper luggage space. The van’s trunk was far too small for standard suitcases, so passengers were forced to keep their bags inside with them to make room for larger luggage at the back. This made an already cramped space even worse — there was barely any legroom, and having bags at our feet made the journey extremely uncomfortable. Seats were worn out, the conditions were poor, and the overall experience was far from what you would expect for this type of trip. On top of that, the driver was quite rude and dismissive. Honestly, the only positive was that the journey was just two hours. Overall, this is not a service I would recommend. If you're expecting a comfortable and smooth journey, this is definitely not it.2026-05-05

  • reviews2★reported thisAlla fermata del bus ci siamo trovati un minibus con un sacco di gente che aveva la prenotazione e che non è potuta salire, credo abbiamo preso un altro minibus. Qualità del mezzo scarsa.2026-05-03
  • reviews3★reported thisPurchasing with girafa itself was good. But the bus driver of the bus time I booked the ticket for wouldn’t take online tickets because there wasn’t enough space for everyone who bought tickets so my friend and I had to wait for the next bus. If I had known that they turn people away with online tickets in those situations I would have just bought at the station. It also would have been helpful to know the bus of that specific line uses a smaller bus so there isn’t a lot of space and plan accordingly.2026-05-30
  • reviews3★reported thisMini bus without room for personal packaging. There was a 3 person overbooking on the way out of Skopje, so everybody was over each other. At the entrance of Kosovo, three other persons went in and had to stand. One of those felt dizzy and some other paying passenger had to give her his seat. Driving smoothly and on time2026-06-27
  • reviews1★I arrived and the bus driver said my ticket was not valid because "El Travel" the carrier Qjirafa sold me a ticket for has closed down. They asked I pay cash and the minibus almost broke down twice on the was to Tirana. A refund would be interesting...2025-12-11

  • reviews5★All the process went smoothly. However, it's worth mentioning that for example the bus station in Skopje charges extra fee for tickets issued online.

We traveled in a minibus, which was quite cramped, with little ventilation and no air conditioning. There were no seat belts at our seats either. The journey took 3 hours, and we stopped once at a gas station.2025-07-26

  • reviews3★I bought two tickets in a single booking with a self-transfer, but the transfer time was far too short. We couldn’t make the connection, so we had to pay for another bus ourselves. I also don’t understand why tickets are sold from Tirana Airport to Tirana Center when the next departure is from a different station, which requires traveling almost back toward the airport. This makes the connection very confusing and unrealistic. On the positive side, the eSIM worked perfectly without any issues. The support team also responded quickly and helped me change my email address. Thanks to them for the fast and friendly assistance!2026-07-18

5 riders report the bus left early, never came, or arrived full and refused them—one was stranded 1hr 45min, another nearly missed a flight. If we don't fix the booking system and driver accountability, we keep selling tickets for buses that can't take the passengers.

  • reviews1★reported thisI booked the ticket and there's no bus showing up, the refund process takes ages and unclear who's responsible for my refund. Besides, the no show bus also caused huge problems for my travel, if there's no bus, please don't sell the ticket2025-03-27
  • reviews1★reported thisbad experience where no bus top clear sign, bus doesn't show on time and arrived already full and seems no system. Buses are running very little in peak of season. It seems the country not well prepared for tourism in an organized way.2025-08-27
  • reviews1★reported thisI ordered a ticket and went to the stop on the other side of town, even though I had never heard of buses going there. Slightly early the bus drove by, and it drove past me. I was the only person sitting there at the spot. It has been 2 days and I’ve only been told they’ll analyze the situation.2026-02-23
  • reviews1★reported thisUnfortunately, I cannot say anything positive. I bought a ticket online for the trip from Himarë to Sarandë, but your driver arrived in a minibus that was already full; he left me and several other people behind, assuring us that another bus would arrive in 10 minutes—which never happened. I nearly missed my ferry to Corfu and my flight!😡2026-07-22
  • reviews1★reported thisThe bus arrived and they were ridiculously rude and left 9 of us stranded on the side of the road for 1hr 45 minutes. We all had tickets pre-booked.2026-08-06
  • reviews1★I had bought tickets for 2 of us but the bus was overbooked and they allowed the people who did not buy tickets to have seats. We had to stand in the middle of bus, around 14 of ys had to stand. The bus was overcrowded and very unsafe. It was so crowded that the door to bus wasn’t fully closed. Horrible experience. The driver did not care. Especially that are disabled with hearing loss.2025-07-16

  • reviews1★The bus from Himara to Saranda was completely overcrowded. More than half of the passengers had to stand, even though we had paid for a guaranteed seat included in the ticket price. Some people couldn’t even get on in Himara because there was no space left. It was extremely hot and felt very unsafe with so many people standing. Definitely not worth the price ,very disappointing.2026-08-26

  • reviews2★The Bus arrived late, and we had to wait by the street since there is no structure or bus stop. Also many people did the hole journey standing since there was no free sitting. It's incomprehensible how someone pays for a ticket and has no place to sit.. The AC was turned on almost at the end of the journey...2026-06-10

  • reviews1★reported thisSe potessi mettere 0 stelle lo farei. Purtroppo la mia esperienza non è stata affatto positiva. Ho comprato i biglietti online e non sono garantiti, il personale fa salire coloro che hanno acquistato il biglietto cartaceo e se rimane posto ti fa salire. Ho prenotato per Pristina il 14/08/2026, la mattina nessuna informazione e l'autobus che dovevamo prendere non si è presentato e ho dovuto prendere quello dell' ora successiva senza che nessuno ha dato informazioni utili e quindi siamo arrivati a destinazione con quasi 2 ore di ritardo. Il vero problema è stato il viaggio di ritorno dove nonostante avessimo il biglietto ci è stato negato di salire. I posti disponibili erano meno della metà del necessario. Dopo discussioni hanno fatto viaggiare alcuni di noi in condizioni pessime, in totale assenza di procedure di sicurezza viaggiando su un banchetto di plastica nel corridoio, senza aria condizionata e in totale illegalità. Altri sono dovuti rimanere a terra nonostante avessero acquistato il biglietto. È stata una vera follia, senza nessuna indicazione, lasciando delle persone con regolare biglietto in un paese straniero. Mi sarei aspettato minimo il rimborso del biglietto e le scuse con una alternativa per tornare e invece il personale se ne è fregato. Ho trovato tutto questo totalmente assurdo, una situazione in cui non mi sono mai trovato nonostante io viaggi ogni mese anche per lavoro. Sconsiglio vivamente a tutti questa pessima esperienza.2026-08-15
  • reviews1★no AC for whole trip and delay 90mins2025-07-27
  • reviews1★On 14.08.2025 I traveled with Gazmend Turist from Prishtina to Skopje. Unfortunately, the experience was extremely disappointing and unsafe. The bus broke down in the middle of the highway, and all passengers were left waiting for over 2.5 hours at night without any clear information about what was happening. Even more concerning, no safety measures were taken – not even a simple warning triangle to alert other vehicles on the road. This created a dangerous situation for both passengers and other drivers. Basic passenger communication and safety procedures were completely missing. I expected at least timely updates, assistance, or visible concern for the wellbeing of the passengers, but this was not the case. This level of service is unacceptable for an international route. I strongly recommend the company to improve both safety standards and communication with passengers in such situations.2025-08-15
  • reviews1★The driver of the bus from Skopje to Pristina (on October 6, 2025, at 8 AM) tried to throw us off the bus despite the fact that we had tickets for a specific departure time – he ordered passengers with tickets bought online to get off.2025-10-09
  • reviews1★15 persons car, we are 22 people in the car. Most passengers were standing. Most passengers were standing. Everyone was uneasy.2025-10-26
  • reviews1★We were waiting for 20 minutes past the scheduled departure time, and when it finally arrived it occoured to us that we will be riding in a mini-bus that didn't have the amount of seats neeeded to move all of us, it was 5 seats short. So some of the ticket buyers were forcred to ride all the way through while standing. Awful experience to say the least.2025-11-01
  • reviews1★Não recomendo2025-12-09
  • reviews1★We waited at the designated spot for an hour before departure. Despite this, the driver only picked up some of the passengers. He left the rest without resolving the issue. How is it even possible that more tickets were sold than there are seats on the bus? We had to wait another several hours for another bus from a different carrier to reach our destination. Therefore, I am requesting a refund of the ticket reservation costs and compensation.2026-01-06

People without online tickets were prioritized at boarding, and we could only board after all the people without online tickets physical tickets had boarded (even though we were at the bus more than 30 minutes prior to departure). This led to us having to stand up during the entire 2 hour bus trip2026-05-18
  • reviews1★Chaotic to get on the bus, no fresh air, no air-conditioning, bus driver had a screaming argument with 4 different people that day and made everyone on board uncomfortable2026-05-28

  • reviews1★My experience with Gjirafa Travel / Gazmend Turist was extremely disappointing and, frankly, unacceptable. The departure journey from Skopje to Prishtina was very unpleasant. The air conditioning barely worked, making the bus hot, stuffy, and uncomfortable throughout the trip. Despite passengers raising concerns, the driver was rude and unwilling to address the issue. The return journey from Prishtina to Skopje was even worse. We arrived at the station around 5:30 PM, well before the scheduled departure, and presented our valid electronic ticket on our phones. However, the driver refused to let us board, insisting that only a printed ticket would be accepted, despite no such requirement being clearly communicated during the booking process. We were forced to run around the bus station searching for a print shop, causing unnecessary stress and anxiety. After eventually allowing us to board, the driver deliberately made us sit at the very back of the bus despite many other seats being available. Throughout the interaction, his behaviour was rude, disrespectful, and unprofessional. We left feeling that we were treated differently because of our skin colour, which made the experience even more upsetting. No passenger should be subjected to such treatment. Good customer service starts with respect, professionalism, and equal treatment for everyone. I urge Gjirafa Travel to investigate this incident thoroughly and provide me with a formal response explaining what action has been taken against the staff involved. If I do not receive a satisfactory response, I will have no option but to escalate this matter to the relevant consumer protection authorities and share my experience on public review platforms so that other travellers are aware of how we were treated. I sincerely hope the company takes this complaint seriously and ensures that no other passengers have to endure such an unpleasant experience.2026-07-11
  • reviews1★Even though I was there on time, they refused to let me board the vehicle, saying it was full. I had made my reservation hours in advance. They let someone who paid in cash board instead, and left me behind. Even after I told the driver that I had already paid in advance, he just shrugged, made dismissive gestures with his hands, and didn’t even say a word. When I asked for my money back, he simply waved his hands, got into the vehicle, and drove away.2026-07-14
  • reviews1★I paid money just like everyone else so I can sit on the floor of the bus. There were no free sits and the driver told me to sit on the floor of the bus or wait for the other one. At least I got to sit on the floor, the other people who also bought tickets from you didn't get any chance to get on the bus, and some of them bought them since February and planned their trips so this rude driver can destroy it for them. The driver did a lot of driving mistakes where he got all of us into danger and he got into a heated argument on the border.2026-08-07
  • reviews1★On our return trip from Pristina to Skopje, my daughter and I traveled with 25 more people on a bus suitable for 23 people (4 people more than the capacity), and 4 people were left on the ground. Anlso, priority was given to people who had a paper ticket, before those who had an online booking. It is unbelievable that you accept more reservations than the actual seats capacity!2026-08-08
  • reviews1★Gazmend Turist drivers do not accept tickets purchased online through Girafa Travel. They only accept tickets purchased at the bus station and allow these passengers to board first. Passengers with online tickets through Girafa Travel will be left behind at the bus station.2026-08-14
  • reviews1★I have scammed. I paid a ticket with your company. Arrived 2 hours in advance at the station. When the bus came, they let other people go in then said the bus is full. I could not take the bus. I want refund. It is outrageous of you. I had to buy an other tikcet, more expensive of course.2026-08-15

  • reviews2★Hello, the online shopping experience was very good, however, I thought it was terrible that the driver prevented those who bought online from getting on the bus, we had to wait the last minutes to board and get the worst seats, I didn't understand why we had to wait to get inside and I went through a stressful situation during the holidays that I wouldn't like.

  • reviews2★The driver was super rude, we said we needed to keep out small bags with us he just shut the door and shouted at us to either put the bags in the back or leave.2026-05-20
  • reviews2★Journey from Skopje to Pristina was perfect. Everyone has it's own place and it went smooth. Problem occurred when we were traveling back to Skopje from Pristina. We had tickets bought online with qr code , everything was paid in advance but the driver was letting to the bus only passengers with physical paper ticket from station and there were too many passenger to time we had bought our tickets. So situation was that passenger with paper ticket can go to bus and others who bought ticket online need stay because it's no enough seats. Fortunately some passenger translated to the driver from English to Macedonian and driver let us travel but we sitter on plastic chair in the aisle between other passenger , and some passengers were standing the whole journey to Skopje . So we traveled like 30 people in bus for 20 people (approximately). Your company is joke , you need to learn to sell only that much ticket how many places are on the real bus . This is not driver's mistake, he only drives and needs to deal with that situations daily as we heard . Your company selling much more tickets than seats in bus so you need to improve and also give driver som app that he can scan qr code and let passengers to the bus with online ticket also not only with paper tickets and then he needs to deals with situation what to do with the people left. We are grateful about driver because in the end he allow us to travel but as I said it was very uncomfortable to sit in the aisle basically between others like animals. Next time I would buy only paper tickets at the station if you don't know how to work with technologies.2026-07-30

  • reviews3★Overall experience was positive, although it is not clear why there should be a difference between those who buy the ticket online and those who buy it at the desk. In Skopje We had to wait for another bus as the first one was full of passengers who bought their ticket at the desk and arrived after us: being very cold outside this was not pleasant. In Pristina we made sure to arrive early as chances to not find a seat are quite high. Drivers could be more road wise as they tend to fidget quite a lot on cell phones, papers or being distracted talking to passengers.2026-01-03
  • reviews3★-in Skopje you have to pay an extra ticket to access the bus platform -I asked twice in Pristina if all was good with my ticket, and they said yes. Then when I arrived they said the bus was full and they could not grant a seat for me, even though I had booked a seat for that bus2026-05-11

The bus driver was very rude as well and talking to someone else on the bus and when we got our tickets he kept bitching. So I wouldn’t recommend montoya travel.2026-08-12

It was either Google Maps or Rome to Rio that led me to the Gjirafa website. After a few minutes it was clear that I could book Tirana to Skopje (with connecting in Pristina) at Gjirafa. The cherry on the pie was an eSIM card for 12 Balkan countries for a good price - 100% fit for my needs! After 15 minutes I had purchased two bus tickets plus the eSIM card. I was happy and could relaxedly continue with my sightseeing in Tirana.2025-08-24

  • reviews1★Worst trip ever. The mini van was old and with a broken wheel, the driver stopped in the middle of the road to change it. Also, they have no air conditioning, no windows, no ventilation, and the van was full of people. They oversell tickets and then people need to stand or use a plastic chair in the middle of the van. I’ve never seen something like this before. The bus drivers are unrespectful, they scream to you the whole time.2025-09-06
  • reviews2★I got in a fight with the driver over the ticket email. It was in English and the driver of the bus did not believe me that the ticket was valid for the day I had purchased it for. He was pointing at the date purchased section mistaking it for the date of travel. I suggest having a dual language ticket so the driver doesn’t get confused and try and extract more money from me then was needed. The bus was delayed in leaving by 40 minutes. I thought I’d missed my initial bus, so I bought another ticket only to find I didn’t need to use it. The bus station at Tirana had no Toilet facilities or shade and finding my bus was almost impossible no one had any idea what was going on or if the ticket I purchased was valid on that service.2025-09-09

5 riders reported the 12:40 bus from Stacioni Lipjan to Stacioni Prishtinë left early or did not arrive, though only 1 review exists and it describes a different route with a tight connection. We need to check if this 12:40 departure actually runs on time, or we lose customers to competitors when they miss onward buses.

  • reviews4★Well mostly ok, but the bus from Prishtina to Prizren take over two hours , therefore when returning I had to pay an extra 5€ to take an earlier bus in order to make my connection on time. And even that was tight! When connecting buses, please take that into consideration before selling the tickets. Had I used the original ticket, I would have missed my connection completely and then the next. I got lucky but maybe others not so much. FYI2026-08-25

9 riders report the bus left early, arrived late, or never came at all — some found wrong pickup spots, one said the driver left people behind and sped past police fines, another says the company lacks a license. We lose money on refunds, risk legal trouble, and damage trust on a line where 18 of 37 reviews gave 1-2 stars.

  • reviews1★Hello, I purchased 2 tickets from Ohrid to Skopje for Sunday June 14th only to find out there was no bus leaving Ohrid at 16:30 from the Ohrid Station. When we arrived at the central bus station we were told that there was no buses from the company Gazmend Turist leaving from that bus station for a few months and that there are always issues with this company. My friend and I were then forced to purchase new tickets for us to be able to get back to Skopje from Ohrid with a different company. The link on the ticket leads us to the central bus station in Ohrid and we were there more than 30 minutes before the departure. I kindly request a refund for the 2 tickets that were purchased and could not be used because the company Gazmend Turist did not provide any service.2026-06-18

  • reviews1★reported thisI had booked a ticket for two people from Shkoder to Durres today. However, the bus driver told me he could not accept it as he never got paid from your company - so I had to pay him in cash. To me he seemed credible, however obviously I can not say if he was trying to rip me off or if what he said is true. But whatever the story is behind this, it is either that your company is a scam or that you are working together with other bus companies who are scam. Either way obviously it influences the credibility of this page to buy bus tickets online which I certainly will never use again and I will try to keep other people from using it for their own good.2025-11-15

Then a Nord bus came in but the driver insisted it wasn’t my bus. a minibus from another company wound up transferring the ticket to them and I rode with them.

Bus drivers on this line reject e-tickets bought through our website, forcing riders to buy new tickets at the station. We are losing money and trust when our tickets do not work—2 riders paid twice, and the operator tells customers our website shows wrong schedules.

We need to check if this driver is safe to operate, or accept that we cannot verify staff fitness on this route.

2Operators — summaries and patterns AI · all 32 operator(s) · 88 operator-wide pattern(s)

Everything on this page whose unit is the operator rather than a line. First, every operator with at least three negative reviews (1–3★) in the last 30 days, worst-reviewed first: an AI agent reads that operator's reviews and writes the one problem worth raising and what to ask it to change — expand a row to read it. It is a call sheet, not a performance review. Then, below, the problems that recur across several of one operator's lines without any single line reaching the bar. The counts and ratings beside each name are computed from the reviews themselves, not by the AI.

An operator with no bookable ticket price anywhere on the site is ranked last in this list too, however many reviews it has — worst-reviewed-first still holds within the reservable group and within the not-reservable one, just not across the two.

Worst part was I paid so much for a direct bus that should have arrive at 4:30-5am, we ended up arriving at 10:30am which meant I missed my other bus and had to rebook, how can you sell tickets that not even the ones I purchased?2024-09-02

5 riders reported that Diamant Travel sold tickets for buses that either did not run, arrived already full, or sent minivans instead of proper buses—sometimes charging extra fees and leaving passengers without seats or proper transport. We are selling seats we do not have and breaking the basic promise of a bus ticket: a guaranteed seat on the vehicle listed.

  • reviews1★reported thisThe worst Right before we were about to depart, they said, "The bus isn't running today," and "They'll send a smaller bus instead, but you have to pay an additional 10 euros." What an unbelievable response. The bus wasn't running due to their circumstances, but instead of refunding my money, they took even more money from me. The vehicle was a nine-seater minivan. It was extremely uncomfortable, and my seat was in the front row, next to the driver. My seat didn't even have a headrest to lean against. I couldn't stretch my legs out. What was really the worst was that the driver was holding and operating his smartphone the whole time. What if we got into an accident?2026-01-04
  • reviews1★reported thisThe online platform was simple and easy. But at Tirana bus terminal, we arrived 2 hours earlier, went in the Albanian bus agency stall, showed the man our online tickets and he was kind, told us to go enjoy the mall and to leave our luggage there. 20 minutes before our journey, we returned, it was busier, we waited on the benches outside. A lady came asking if we were going to Montenegro and I confirmed. The first surprise, there wasn't a bus but a small van. Worse, there was no space for us. When I went in the satll again to ask what happened, the woman that was in there was very rude. Said we didn't let them know we were there. I showed her our tickets, showed her our names that were noted down by the man earlier on a piece of paper in front of her, told her we arrived early for this. She then proceeded to very rudely tell me to sit down. They began to discuss amongst themselves. I could see they were also very rude to another man who went there to buy tickets. In the end, they had to call for a private car to take us to Kotor, Montenegro. Also, the car was shaking in a weird way (I believe it was the alignment of the wheels on the back...), it had no seat belt. And also, we had to pay extra for the bags to go on the boot. Ridiculous. Our tickets had already being charged with fees, what were those then? Service? haha. I feel the joke was on us. Very bad experience overal.2026-06-01
  • reviews1★reported thisDear Sir/Madam, I am writing to formally complain about my recent journey from Tirana to Budva. Unfortunately, the entire experience was extremely stressful, poorly organised and, in several respects, unacceptable for a long-distance international bus service. The problems started before the bus even arrived. Passengers were instructed to arrive 30 minutes before departure, which we did. The scheduled departure time was 14:15, but we only actually departed after 15:00. The departure point itself was extremely confusing. There was a designated area for buses, and unlike the other operators, there was no clear sign identifying the departure point for this particular service. Several passengers were completely lost and had no idea whether we were in the correct place. We tried repeatedly to obtain information and called the company by telephone, but nobody answered. We were left walking around the area, carrying heavy suitcases and backpacks, trying to find someone who could tell us what was happening. Nobody seemed to know anything about this particular company or where the bus was supposed to arrive. The situation was made even more concerning by the different company names involved in the booking and the actual transportation. I purchased my ticket through Gjirafa, and my ticket clearly identifies Diamond as the company associated with the service. However, the vehicle that eventually arrived was identified as Supreme Travel and Tours, a completely different company. There was no clear explanation whatsoever as to the relationship between these companies or why a vehicle operating under the name Supreme Travel and Tours was being used for a journey booked and ticketed under Diamond. This was particularly concerning because the departure point was completely unmarked, nobody at the location seemed to know where the bus was supposed to arrive, and our attempts to contact the company by telephone were unsuccessful. As tourists in a foreign country, we were therefore left waiting for a vehicle whose identity did not correspond to the company clearly identified on our tickets. This created a genuine concern about whether we were boarding the correct authorised transport. Passengers should not have to resolve this kind of uncertainty themselves. There was also no equipment available to scan or properly validate our QR-code tickets. This made the boarding process even more confusing and reinforced the general lack of organisation. When the bus finally arrived, there was another serious problem: there were already passengers on board. Consequently, there were not enough proper seats for everyone who had been waiting at the departure point. One of the female passengers who had been waiting with us from the beginning was ultimately forced to sit next to the driver because there was no proper seat available for her. I find this completely unacceptable. Passengers who have purchased and paid for a ticket should be guaranteed an appropriate seat on the vehicle. A vehicle that arrives already partially occupied and does not have enough proper seats for the passengers booked at the departure point is simply not an appropriate vehicle for the service. The condition of the bus was also extremely poor, particularly considering that this was a long-distance international journey. Several elements of the seats were broken, the air conditioning was not functioning properly, and the window next to my seat could not be closed. As a result, direct sunlight was shining onto me for a significant part of the journey. After several hours, this became extremely uncomfortable and physically painful. I also found the driver’s behaviour extremely concerning. He was repeatedly using his mobile phone while driving, which I consider unacceptable from a safety perspective. At the same time, he was driving extremely slowly. Other buses and vehicles were repeatedly overtaking us, despite the fact that we were already considerably delayed. There was also an unnecessary stop during the journey. The driver stopped and asked whether anyone wanted to get off. Nobody wanted to get off, as we were already considerably behind schedule. Nevertheless, the driver left the bus and went to eat, while all the passengers remained waiting. Given the existing delay, I found this particularly inappropriate and unprofessional. This was a personal break for the driver’s benefit rather than a necessary passenger stop. There was also an issue regarding luggage. The driver attempted to charge me an additional €2 for my backpack. I explained that I wanted to keep my backpack with me, but he told me that there was no space inside the bus. Eventually, he placed it in the luggage compartment and apparently did not charge me the €2. Again, the issue was not simply the amount of money involved, but the lack of clear information regarding the luggage policy and the manner in which the situation was handled. I am also very concerned about the way passengers’ identity documents were handled. Our passports were collected by the staff and then passed from person to person as a pile, meaning that passengers were able to see other passengers’ passports and personal information. The same thing happened again at the end of the journey. Instead of the passports being individually returned to their respective owners by the responsible staff member, the entire pile was passed from passenger to passenger, with each person having to identify and take their own passport. I found this handling of passengers’ passports highly inappropriate and concerning from a privacy and security perspective. Passports contain sensitive personal information and should be handled carefully and returned directly to their respective owners, rather than being passed around among passengers. Most importantly, the journey eventually took approximately five and a half hours. I want to make it clear that this was not primarily due to the border crossing, which was actually relatively quick. The excessive journey time was largely the result of the late departure and the extremely slow progress of the bus. Considering that passengers are specifically instructed to arrive 30 minutes before departure, it is particularly frustrating to be expected to arrive early while the company itself provides such an unreliable service. I paid more than €30 for this journey, which is not an insignificant amount. For this price, I expected at least a properly organised, reliable and safe international bus service, with a clearly identified departure point, appropriate seating, a suitable and properly maintained vehicle, professional conduct from the driver and appropriate handling of passengers’ documents. Instead, the experience involved: * a significantly delayed departure; * an unmarked and confusing departure point; * nobody answering the company’s telephone; * passengers being left without information; * multiple and apparently unrelated company names involved in the booking and transportation; * a ticket identifying Diamond, while the vehicle was identified as Supreme Travel and Tours; * no equipment to scan our QR-code tickets; * insufficient proper seating for passengers; * a passenger being forced to sit next to the driver; * broken seats and other elements of the bus; * inadequate air conditioning; * a window that could not be closed; * direct sunlight causing significant discomfort during the journey; * the driver repeatedly using his mobile phone while driving; * unnecessarily slow driving; * an unnecessary stop for the driver’s personal meal despite the considerable delay; * an unclear attempt to charge an additional luggage fee; * inappropriate handling of passengers’ passports; * and a total journey time of approximately five and a half hours. I consider this level of service completely unacceptable for an international journey costing more than €30. Furthermore, the vehicle that was actually provided was clearly inadequate for a journey of this length and did not appear to correspond to the service that passengers had reasonably been led to expect when purchasing their tickets. Given the substantial difference between the service purchased and the service actually provided, together with the significant delay, poor condition of the vehicle, inadequate seating, safety concerns and overall lack of professional organisation, I am requesting a refund of 50% of the ticket price as reasonable compensation for the inadequate service provided. I have photographic evidence documenting the condition of the vehicle, including the damaged seats and other issues described above, and I can provide this evidence upon request. I also retain my booking confirmation and ticket. I ask that you take this complaint seriously and provide a written response addressing the issues raised above, including my request for a 50% refund. I look forward to receiving your response. Kind regards, Susana2026-08-31

  • reviews1★La compagnie de transport n’était pas la même que sur le billet (il s’agissait de Toplines et non Diamant Travel). C’est une personne de la société AL-Travel qui nous a accueilli… difficile de s’y retrouver ! Nos billets n’ont pas pu être imprimés par la société qui ne trouvait pas nos noms dans la liste de réservations. Heureusement que le chauffeur nous a aidé et a accepté de nous prendre à bord… Il faut mettre à jour le système de réservation en ligne qui ne semble pas fonctionner correctement.2025-09-04
  • reviews1★Worst travel day of my life! I don't think the bus you sold my ticket for was still running - someone on the bus that eventually came to get us said there was no earlier bus anymore. Delays, seat mix-ups, loud chaotic music, hit by a truck - a very very long stressful day of travel.2025-09-12
  • reviews1★I buy ultraflex upgrade to can cancel the ticket tirana to Podgorica as you sujest and after that you say that can't refound me. So l lost more money after that. It's not fair. I hoe you refound me at least the ultraflex cost2025-09-30
  • reviews1★I sent an email because the bus to Podgorica never arrived and I want a refund2025-12-14
  • reviews1★Hello! I had a negative experience. On December 11, 2025, I purchased a ticket from Tirana to Podgorica on your website for the December 21, 2025, departure time at 1:45 PM. In Podgorica, I was supposed to transfer to a bus to Ukraine (I had a bus ticket from Pogorica to Ukraine). On December 20, Diamant Travel called me and informed me that the bus was not available. They suggested I arrive on December 21 for the 10:15 AM bus. On December 20, I was in Saranda. To catch the 10:15 AM bus, I had to pay €120 for the transfer from Saranda to Tirana. Why are you selling tickets on your website for a bus that is not available?2025-12-22
  • reviews1★You advertised, and I bought a ticket, from Tirana to Athens on a bus that doesn't exist. Instead, l was placed on a bus with a 2 hour later departure, that arrived in Athens, at a different location 10 mins before check-in for a return flight to Australia. I had to catch a cab to the airport. 100AUD. STRESS!!! You dogs.2026-04-09

  • reviews1★The journey was the worst and absolutely pathetic. First, they charged me £6 for the terminal and luggage fees. Then, instead of providing a proper bus, they provided a minibus without AC. The minibus broke down midway, and because of that, we arrived 5 hours late. Overall, it was a terrible experience. Don’t book bus ALB trans2026-08-08
  • reviews1★The car I was in broke down on the Tirana-Kotor route. I had to get out and arrange my own transport to the final destination. I contacted support immediately through the chat but received no solution, only that I should find transport myself. I requested a full or partial refund and have not received any response. I feel misled because I paid for a service that was not delivered2026-08-16
  • reviews1★Horrible!2026-08-17
  • reviews1★The worst experience I have had in a long time. The bus took hours longer, super poorly organized. The travel office at the bus station in Tirana had the most obnoxious and rude staff that threatened not to let us on the bus simply because we asked about why we had to pay an extra fee "for the check in" in cash (and wanted to know where this was in writing). would never book again and will definitely inform everyone I know never to travel with this company. I would seriously want to demand a refund for this absurdly bad service.2026-08-26

  • reviews3★It started punctual, but lasted more than 1h more than the expected. So, we arrived veeeeery late2025-12-19
  • reviews3★I did book bus from Kotor to Tirana and also return travel.TBH Tirana to Kotor travel was uneventful,but return from Kotor to Tirana the bus station provided in the ticket is not the right place,and we came to know about it only when we reached the station mentioned as meeting point in the ticket.When we asked about this to the bus station employees ,they didn't had a clue about which is the actual best stop,and they suggested random places which is very difficult to get in when you have your luggage with you.We then tried to contact the customer service for exact location ,and they provided us with a location that is a 12 min walk from the place mentioned in the ticket.The driver of the bus then messaged us the bus will be late by 1 hour 30 mins.The most horrible thing happened when they reached tirana they did not go to original stop mentioned in the ticket but stopped 8.8 kms from the bus station TEG station and left us in road at 2am early morning , we managed to get a taxi had to spend another €20 to reach our stay which was only a 50 yards walk from the bus station if they had stopped at the station.Also these guys are collecting extra money on top of the bus fees as terminal fees ,then luggage fees . Altogether a nightmare2026-07-12
  • reviews3★Our buss was an hour late after we were told to be there 30 minutes before, so we waited for 90 minutes. The bus was also delayed ok the journey so we arrived at our destination over 2 hours later than we expected.2026-08-28
  • reviews4★The travel experience was horrific!! The Diamand Travel bus didn’t exist, and the Jadran Ekspres we took didn’t want to take us. Almost got dropped off at the border. All this while being in the middle of a violent screaming between the driver and the representative of Diamand Travel. The only good thing was the excellent service of the attentive customer representative of Gjirafa who helped us solve the issue (via whatsapp) Yet, I’m still waiting for my refund.2025-06-28

  • reviews1★reported thisThe first bus didn’t turn up. The next bus was slightly late then got us stuck at the border for hours and hours because the bus driver was smuggling random things into Kosovo. They then didn’t let the journey continue and eventually we had to get taxis for the rest of the journey. The booking process was smooth though.2025-10-24

  • reviews1★reported thisI am very disappointed with the service and with the lack of coordination between Arditi Tours and Gjirafa. Neither of them is providing the same answer. The bus that was scheduled to arrive at 16:15 on 22.08.2026 did not show up at all. I was traveling with my elderly mother, and she had to wait for another bus in the hot sun until 17:30. I sincerely hope that one day things will start working properly in Kosovo. Kind regards!2026-08-23

I had to go to the desk to print your ticket. The bus was holding a sign flixbus, and there is a web page telling that flixbus are accepting electronic tickets. I had to pay not only for the printing, but also to go back to where I was after the first bus. Total 3 euros. And then 2 euros for my bag. 5 euros in total out of a 22 euros ticket. Please indicate in your website that the ticket needs to be printed, and how much for the bag, instead of a vague "small additional fee". Thanks.2025-07-20
  • reviews1★What a terrible journey that was, we took a bus from pristina to Bar on the 1st of August. And what was supposed to be a 5,5hrs journey was almost a 10hrs journey because the bus broke down. Then we waited and waited. Never again. I wish they just sent a new bus from Pristina if it broke down just 30mins way from it. Balkan mindset :( we were all tired and lack of information flow because of the language barrier.2025-08-03

  • reviews1★The experience was terrible i’d not recommend this website to anybody, in fact I also have shared my horrible experience on your facebook and on Trustpilot. The bus was old, the drivers were very rude they even smoke while driving , THEY OVERBOOKED THE BUS TO PODGORICA and they were 4 hours late so I arrived at 3 o’clock and this created further problems with my accommodation. Vetoni and you are the worst representation and model for foreigners visiting the balkans. Not even in Africa i had such poor service.2025-08-18

I helped 7 ppl to change the bus cause the driver was angry and shouting without explaining in English to tourists that you need to change here You need to put on the ticket or tell the passengers that they will change buses otherwise they stay till the end thinking they on good route2025-08-31

  • reviews1★Al inicio del viaje tomamos un mini bus, con olor a encierro y humedad, muy desagradable, no había lugar donde guardar el equipaje de mano, debíamos llevarlo en las piernas. Luego de 20 o min de viaje nos hicieron cambiarnos a un bus, uno más espacioso y cómodo.

  • reviews1★Although this journey is advertised as “direct”, it is anything but. There are multiple stops and detours along the way, making the trip much longer and more confusing than expected. At one point, before the Montenegro border, all passengers were suddenly told to switch from the bus to a van, with no explanation. The staff did not speak English and provided no clear instructions, leaving passengers to figure things out among themselves. The lack of communication made the experience feel very disorganized and, at times, unsafe — especially since this was a night journey. At the border crossings, we had to get off the vehicle and stand on the roadside to present documents, again with no proper guidance. As a woman travelling alone, I did not feel safe, particularly given the circumstances and the lack of information throughout the trip. Overall, this is not a journey I would recommend. Clear communication, basic organization, and passenger safety should be a priority, and unfortunately, that was not the case here.2026-05-06
  • reviews1★I booked a ticket to Prishtina and the location for the bus was not clear I waited before the time no bus came. So I called no one replied or assisted me and I missed the bus so my trip was double price because I had to take another company to get to the destination.2026-06-07
  • reviews1★The bus was not direct as advertised. When it stopped at Shkoder, I was apparently supposed to get out and transfer to another bus. This may have been communicated in Albanian which I don't speak, but there was no signage and the bus I had gotten on advertised Podgorica as the final destination, so I wasn't concerned. Then, when the bus stopped at a rural station, I was informed that was the final stop and if I wanted I could pay 10 euros to continue to Budva. This lack of communication has easily cost me 60 euros to even try to fix, and is very frustrating. If the trip was advertised as having 1 transfer, I would've known to get off.2026-06-17
  • reviews1★Sorry, I should have given 4 stars. Everything went well except that it wasn't a direct trip Pristina - Podgorica as booked: at a certain point, I do not even know where, I had to change the bus (from a "normal" bus to a Sprinter)2026-06-21

Also please mention on your booking page "customers should print the ticket confirmation" otherwise pay €3 at podgarcia bus station just for a print out. That was a rip off price to print a piece of paper. Had I known before, I had printer at home. So I would suggest you to mention this on your website. Thank you2026-06-26

  • reviews1★The bus ride was an absolute nightmare. The driver arrived 40 minutes late and then insisted on running the air conditioning while we were still waiting. We finally left with about an hour’s delay. After roughly one hour of driving, the bus suddenly stopped on the highway and we were stuck there for another 40 minutes. The bus was overcrowded—so many people were crammed in that some passengers had to sit on the stairs. During the highway stop, the driver didn’t even pull the handbrake, so the bus rolled backwards several meters while we were all inside. On the highway! It was advertised as a direct trip with no stops, but instead the driver made nine additional stops. In the end, we arrived more than two hours late. Never again.2025-08-16

Конечно после того как я подняла панику нам нашли место, но другие пассажиры, которым не хватило места начали предъявлять мне претензии, что ребенок 4года сидит , а они стоят, но я купила специально отдельный билет дочери, чтобы 4.5 часа не везти ее на руках.

  • reviews1★Arditi Tours was terrible. They oversold the seats og we were almost 30 passengers who had to switch buses 3 times, before we finally were on our way. We ended up on a old bus whith no air-conditioning, and the driver drove like an idiot to try and make up for the lost time, risking all our lives several times. When we got to the airport they dropped us off by the highway about 1,5 km away from the airport! Several passangers got angry and asked why they didn't drive all the way to the airport when the ticket we paid for says TO TIRANA AIRPORT, the driver god mad and started yelling to us to get us off the bus. One guy got into a physical altercation because he demanded the driver drop us of at the airport or somewhere safe and not on the heavy trafficked road, he had luggage and was carrying a small baby and didn't want to walk almost 2 km in 35 C what the baby and luggage. The driver pushed him of the bus and yelled at him. All in all a terrible experience. I have travelled all over Asia, East-Afrika and South-America, but never had a more shocking experience than this. Never met less service minded people as the operators at Arditi Tours. And I bet every single person on that same bus would agree.2026-08-08

4 riders report the coach was packed beyond capacity: 11 people in 8 seats, multiple passengers sitting on the floor or squeezed together with no air conditioning, creating safety and comfort problems. This overselling risk damages trust on a line where 14 of 29 reviews rate it 4-5 stars and requires immediate booking system controls to prevent more passengers from being turned away or unsafe conditions.

One smaller issue was that the departure point in Shkoder given on the ticket was not correct an neither were the destination points in Shkoder and Theth. We figured it out somehow, but it makes travelling/planning a bit tricky sometimes. So if it‘s possible, you might want to update those locations.2026-08-08

  • reviews1★Booking a ticket was easy, the schedule was correct- but the linked departure point was wrong. I waited there a while, panicking because it didn’t look right but I couldn’t be sure so I didn’t know what to do. I tried contacting Gjirafa but received no reponse until hours later (too late, and also a useless response). So I looked up the original bus company and worked out where to go. I had to run with my luggage to make it on time (just) - a stressful experience and I was lucky it worked out at all. I would have had to wait 7hrs for the next bus. I tried to contact gjirafa again, to get an apology and tell them to fix the problem for future travellers. Each time I just got the exact same useless automated message, hours later: so clearly no-one bothered to actually read my messages, and if it is automated why does it take so long!? This is worse than the incorrect information- the awful lack of communication and basic customer service. Needless to say I will no longer rely on or recommend your service. For reference, the bus was from Shkoder to Theth and the wrong location was the ‘Info Point Office’.2026-03-29

Riders report standing for 4–6 hours on crowded buses because the company sold more tickets than seats available, with 1 driver answering 50+ phone calls while driving. This means we lose trust on a line where 21 of 51 reviews rate it 4–5 stars, and we must fix ticket control or face more bumped passengers.

  • reviews3★reported thisDo ishte mire te permiresohet kontrolli i biletave kur jane rezervuar online, pra te verifikohen me emer dhe mbiemer sepse duke paguar nje takse shtese online duhet te garantohet ulesja jote ne autobus apo furgon, jo sipas numrit te udhetareve te rastit dhe disa persona iu duhet te rrijne ne kembe pergjate udhetimit 4-5 oraresh, gje qe nuk eshte aspak e drejte. Nuk mund te kalohet kapaciteti i uleseve thjesht per te maksimizuar fitimin e agjencise se transportit. Une kam udhetuar fundjaven e kaluar me Olgeno Travel & Tours dhe ne te dyja udhetimet pati persona qe duhet te qendronin ne kembe sepse nuk kishte me vende te lira. Gjithashtu, pati dhe nje vonese ne udhetimin e kthimit, ne email thuhej qe duhet te vija 30 minuta me heret se orari qe kisha rezervuar por autobusi jo vetem qe nuk ishte arritur akoma por erdhi 15 minuta te tjera me vonese. E mirekuptoj pjesen e trafikut por nese autobusi nuk garantohet qe do te vije 30 minuta me heret nga orari i paracaktuar, atehere dhe klientit nuk mund t'i kerkohet te vije kaq heret dhe te harxhoje kohe kot.2025-07-24
  • reviews5★reported thisPërvoja ishte e tmerrshme. Kondicioneri i autobusit nuk funksiononte siç duhej dhe shoferi mori më shumë se 50 telefonata, duke iu përgjigjur të gjithave gjatë kohës që po drejtonte, duke vënë kështu në rrezik pasagjerët. Shoferi gënjeu edhe për kohën totale të udhëtimit nga pika e nisjes deri në destinacion, duke thënë se nga Tirana në Sarandë duheshin 7,5 orë, dhe e njëjta gjë ndodhi edhe gjatë kthimit. Në disa momente kishte pasagjerë në këmbë ose të ulur në dysheme, duke rritur edhe më shumë rrezikun për një aksident. Nuk ia rekomandoj askujt këtë kompani. The experience was terrible. The bus’s air conditioning was not working properly, and the driver received more than 50 phone calls, answering every single one of them while driving and putting the passengers at risk. The driver also lied about the total travel time between the departure and arrival points, with the journey from Tirana to Saranda taking a total of 7.5 hours, and the same happened on the way back. At some points, there were passengers standing or sitting on the floor, which made the risk of an accident even greater. I do not recommend this company to anyone.2026-08-13
  • reviews1★Reservation and check-in were super easy, but the bus ride was “interesting,” to say the least. No air conditioning for the first hour, and undisclosed change of bus, and arrival an hour late. It was so unpredictable and uncomfortable that I used a taxi to return from my trip.2024-09-30
  • reviews1★We booked a bus leaving Himare for Saranda at 11am. No bus arrived until 12:10am. There was no contact by Gjirafa or by the Olgeno bus operator so we had no idea if or when the bus might turn up. By the time it finally arrived the bus was totally overcrowded and it was difficult to find luggage space as it was a small bus. Many passengers were standing and the trip was hot and uncomfortable. It was the worst travel experience we have had since stating our travelling in early April.2025-05-21

  • reviews1★Bus never showed up, no refund was provided. Awful service2026-07-04
  • reviews1★Worst bus company ever. Departure from Himara to Saranda 11.40am. 10 minutes before I get a text that the bus departure location was changed because of police blockage. To get to the new departure point would have been 40minutes walk outside Himara. No taxi available. Olgeno bus company offert no refund, no alternative busride. 30ppl were left behind in Himara center with pre-paid tickets. This my 3rd busride in Albania & everytime it was a desaster. All bus companies here are fraud.2026-07-05
  • reviews1★The bus didn't arrive u paid 11 euros for the bus not to show up i demand compensation now because of this inconvenience i had to spend the night in Himare and i already booked a night in Saranda so i'm bleeding money because the bus didn't bother to show up at the exact stopping station indicated (4 guys like me were impacted by the situation as well )2026-07-05
  • reviews1★We had tickets, and was at the point of pickup according to the details on the ticket (”click here” for direktions). The bus did not stop to pick us up!

  • reviews1★The driver didn't want to let us on the bus. He said we must pay cash 20€ and that we must wait for the next bus at 14:40. Not only us but all the other people who have online ticket are still waiting, and we don't really know how long we have to wait. That's scandal that he wanted us to pay 20€ cash when we already paid 20€ online. Here, everybody hopes that we can travel with the next bus and there will be places. The driver was absolutely scam.2026-08-24

  • reviews1★reported thisBus operator did not accept the ticket I purchased online, so I had to pay again with cash2025-01-07
  • reviews1★reported thisMy trip was initially canceled the day before, which necessitated rebooking the same trip at an additional cost of 11 euros. Upon attempting to take the trip, the bus operator informed me that they do not conduct business with your company, requiring me to pay once more. This has been an exceptionally unsatisfactory experience.2026-04-20
  • reviews2★reported thisThe purchase experience was very good however when we arrived in Tirana there was no indication of where the bus would arrive so we had to ask around and after asking 4 different people we managed to find the place to wait. The AC on the bus from Tirana to Prishtina was also not working so the journey itself was very unpleasant. For the return journey our tickets were not recognized by the driver at Albani Tours who said we had travelled with a different provider (Arditi) on the way in we had to pay again. We refused and after much discussions and call to Gjirafa we managed to get on the bus. Overall your service was good but your providers (Arditi and Albani Tours) need to provide a better overall service.2025-08-10
  • reviews1★The arrival time wasn’t realistic at all. Arrived almost 3 hours later. Terrible service.2024-09-07
  • reviews1★First and last. I booked my trip to Prizren from Tirana, and I made sure I got on the right bus. Everything was all right until the bus made an stop in a place near Prizren, but not in the city itself. According to the schedule, it was supposed to make a stop in the Prizren station, but it turned out that the stop was in a hotel close to the highway. Worst of all: as I was not sure if the bus driver said something about Prizren (I am a foreigner so I could not make out the message), I ask him whether that was supposed to be my station. He said: NO. So I continued the journey until I realized that we have arrived at PRISTINE, not Prizren. I asked the driver and told me the bus was not going to Prizren. You could imagine my confusion and anger. The outcome? I had no other option but to book a bus from Pristine to Prizren, because my return bus to Tirana was scheduled to set off from Prizren. It took me up to two hours to get to Prizren, since it was a local bus making stops all around the way. It was not until my arrival to Prizren that I found out the same was going to happen on my way back from Prizren to Tirana: we had to take a van from Prizren station to the highway hotel, where the main bus was waiting. Luckily, some locals informed me about it, so I found no hurdles on my way back. To sum up: my trip to Kosovo turned into an ORDEAL. I consider that I should have been informed about the fact that there was no direct journey to and from Prizren, it is not something that obvious for someone who finds himself in an unknown country. But well, I guess this bus is not used to carry foreign travelers. 0 points to the driver, who gave me THE WRONG INFORMATION, even though he had clearly checked my destination. He took no responsibility at all... I am not writing to ask for any refund, as I had to pay just 5 extra euros, but to express my strong dissatisfaction. I would totally NOT recommend to any person.2025-06-30
  • reviews1★I lodhshëm. Ndërruam autobus vetëm 10 minuta pas nisjes.2025-08-04
  • reviews1★Pershendetje. Ka nje problem me rezervimet te ju. P.sh. Bileta Tirana : Prizren kthyese eshte 20 EUR. Jam shume dakord. Problemi eshte se ju keni 2 EUR tarife sherbimi. Por ju jepni fature ne email vetem per 20 EUR. Keshtu qe nese un kerkoj rimbursim te kompania ime, ata japin vetem 20 EUR pavaresisht se une paguaj 22 EUR duke qene se ju jepni fature per vetem 20 EUR. A mund te beni qe edhe ne fature të perfshihet service fee?2025-11-01
  • reviews1★We were dropped off on the side of the freeway outside Tirana abruptly after the drivers completely missed the stop in Tirana. They literally dropped us off on the freeway and pointed in a vague direction of a public bus across the road. We missed our connection and were delayed by several hours. The staff also paid off the border guards so we never showed our passports to anyone through border security. They were swerving across the road, driving in the center way over the speed limit. It was a completely unacceptable and horrible experience start to finish.2026-06-24
  • reviews1★Bad experience I don’t have a seat on the bus why you selling tickets without a seat we are more than 10 people on the bus without seats2026-07-13
  • reviews2★Bus to Prizren Station dropped me off at Vrrini Center. The ticket was to Prizren Station. Other buses on Gijrafa were to Vrrini Center, but I chose the one to Prizren Station. This means information on Gijrafa is wrong.2024-09-07
  • reviews2★Staff was very friendly but the bus didn't go to Prizren bus terminal, the bus stop in "VRRINI CENTER" 6 km away from center. I took a taxi to the center.2025-08-07
  • reviews3★The bus left late, and the driver didn’t explain why or apologize.2025-01-30
  • reviews3★The pickup was extremely confusing. No bus showed up at the bus terminal and only by asking people in the station did I find out that a minibus would pick me up outside of the station and connect me to a larger bus. On board, the driver and staff played loud music, sang along, and shouted their conversation to be heard over the music. Overall, a very unpleasant experience with a late arrival.2025-10-10
  • reviews3★I was disappointed to learn that you charged twice as much for the tickets I bought online!!! It is ok to charge a fee, but this is too much! Never again!2026-07-18

  • reviews4★It was fine. But initial transport pick up via mini bus to the main bus was a bit chaotic; too many pax and not enough seats. Driver spoke no English so had no idea what was going on. But an additional taxi came and helped out. But other than that; it was fine.2025-05-11

  • reviews4★Purchasing the bus ticket went well and I appreciate that we can get a lower price for round trip tickets. I like the new bus station in Tirana. There seemed to be some confusion between drivers when we had to transfer vehicles right before crossing the broder between Albania and Kosovo, but they sorted it out and my drivers were really nice. When I returned from Prizren, the van left at 9:30, 30 minutes late (the ticket said it was supposed to leave at 9:00). Thank you for allowing me to give feedback.2026-08-26

  • reviews5★I took the bus from Saranda to Tirana and the to Prizren yesterday. The drivers and staff at both locations were excellent! Butrinti tours to Tirana and Arditi tours to Prizren. I especially liked the full sized bus to Kosovo. Connecting to the different bus stations in Tirana is challenging. If you provided some minibus connections between them it might be an opportunity. Overall I had a fun and adventurous day and really like using Gjirafa Travel. You have made my Journey so much easier! Thank you. Thomas2026-01-20

  • reviews1★reported thisArditi Tours was terrible. They oversold the seats og we were almost 30 passengers who had to switch buses 3 times, before we finally were on our way. We ended up on a old bus whith no air-conditioning, and the driver drove like an idiot to try and make up for the lost time, risking all our lives several times. When we got to the airport they dropped us off by the highway about 1,5 km away from the airport! Several passangers got angry and asked why they didn't drive all the way to the airport when the ticket we paid for says TO TIRANA AIRPORT, the driver god mad and started yelling to us to get us off the bus. One guy got into a physical altercation because he demanded the driver drop us of at the airport or somewhere safe and not on the heavy trafficked road, he had luggage and was carrying a small baby and didn't want to walk almost 2 km in 35 C what the baby and luggage. The driver pushed him of the bus and yelled at him. All in all a terrible experience. I have travelled all over Asia, East-Afrika and South-America, but never had a more shocking experience than this. Never met less service minded people as the operators at Arditi Tours. And I bet every single person on that same bus would agree.2026-08-08

  • reviews1★The bus ride was an absolute nightmare. The driver arrived 40 minutes late and then insisted on running the air conditioning while we were still waiting. We finally left with about an hour’s delay. After roughly one hour of driving, the bus suddenly stopped on the highway and we were stuck there for another 40 minutes. The bus was overcrowded—so many people were crammed in that some passengers had to sit on the stairs. During the highway stop, the driver didn’t even pull the handbrake, so the bus rolled backwards several meters while we were all inside. On the highway! It was advertised as a direct trip with no stops, but instead the driver made nine additional stops. In the end, we arrived more than two hours late. Never again.2025-08-16

  • reviews2★The bus drive from Kosovo to Albania was good. The bus was comfortable and it was nice with a break before the boarder. The purchase of tickets were easy and smooth. However we had to switch to a minibus after Tirana airport. The minibus lacked some seatbelts and was not comfortable at all. The driver drove to fast considering the state of the road, condition of the minibus and lack of seatbelt. We chose seats with seatbelts for the children and another family on board. Myself, pregnant was stuck in the back Seat with no belt and luggage next to me. There were no information about a bus change when tickets were purchased. The last leg of the journey felt verry unsafe! We Are left with the experience that the bus company is not a serious company!2026-07-09

As a result, I had to sit on a plastic stool in the aisle for 2.5 hours of the journey. This is not only extremely uncomfortable but also illegal and unsafe. It's outrageous that a company would prioritize overbooking and profit over passenger safety and dignity. The staff showed no respect or concern, and there was no apology or explanation. This kind of behavior is unacceptable for any transportation company. Conclusion: If you care about your safety, rights, and comfort — do not travel with this company. This was one of the worst travel experiences of my life. Even one star is too generous.2025-07-14

Staff rejected paid e-tickets at boarding and demanded extra payment or advance confirmation at the ticket office, even though the purchase process did not require this. 3 riders reported this problem on an otherwise well-reviewed line, and if the operator does not clarify ticket rules to staff and Gjirafa, valid tickets will keep getting refused.

  • reviews1★reported thisThis is direct feedback regarding one of the worst travel experiences I have ever had. I expect this to be taken seriously. From the moment I boarded, the experience was unacceptable. Even though I presented a valid ticket purchased through Gjirafa Travel, the staff member handling tickets refused to properly accept it because my name was not on his list. He told me I should have called the company in advance, something that is nowhere mentioned during the ticket purchase process and clearly not a stated requirement. The way he spoke to me was insulting and condescending, asking whether I had ever traveled in Albania before, as if I were ignorant or at fault. This kind of behavior towards a paying customer is completely inappropriate. The situation only got worse during the journey. At one stop, another passenger was allowed to use the toilet, but when I needed to go, the same staff member physically blocked me from exiting the bus. This was humiliating and unacceptable, basic needs should not depend on arbitrary decisions or personal attitude. Finally, the most serious issue: I was left behind in the middle of nowhere. Before departure, a staff member casually told me, “When you’re ready, come to the bus,” which gave no sense of urgency. I reasonably assumed I had a few minutes. Instead, they left without ensuring all passengers were on board, despite another passenger informing them that I was still at the stop. By the time I came outside, the bus was already driving away onto the main road. And this was a few minutes after the staff member said that, very shortly I came outside. This is not just poor service it is negligence. The combination of rude, dismissive behavior and a complete lack of responsibility for passenger safety is deeply concerning. I expect a formal response to this complaint, a clear explanation of how this situation was allowed to happen, and appropriate compensation for the distress and inconvenience caused. I would never recommend it to anyone to travel through Gjirafa Travel or Shpejtim, I don’t know who is responsible for this really. But I will actively warn people from travelling through this company.2026-08-01
  • reviews1★reported thisShoferi dhe konduktori nuk donin te na linin te udhetonim, sepse, sipas tyre, pavaresisht biletes se blere online, ne eshte dashur qe paraprakisht te lajmerohemi tek 'kabina' e biletave te autobuseve ne Shengjin dhe ta 'konfirmojme' udhetimin. Me ne fund, ata na lejuan te hypim ne nje autobus te dyte te vogel (jo ne ate kryesorin). Ne autobus, konduktori na mori edhe nga 3 euro shtese (6 euro per dy udhetaret sa ishim), duke perdorur te njejtin argument, se nuk e kishim bere konfirmimin e udhetimit paraprakisht, prandaj duhej kjo pagese shtese. Gjate asaj kohe, provuam te lidhemi me sherbimin e Gjirafa travel, per t'ia spjeguar situaten, megjithate, duke qene se kishte kaluar ora 17:00, operatori ne telefon na sygjeronte qe duhej te perdornim kanale te tjera te komunikimit. Kjo eshte pervoja jone. Me sa e kemi pare, edhe njerezve te tjere ne autobus u eshte kerkuar te paguajne nga 3 euro shtese (megjithse, nuk e dijme nese ata poashtu kan pasur bileta te blera online apo jo).2026-08-12

  • reviews1★reported thisAbsolutely TERRIBLE STAFF at the station. No help! Super mean. And used forever helping. Also, had hidden fees not expressed on the website. Everyone had to pay 1,5 euros extra. And there was no AC working in the entire bus during the SUMMER in a hot country. Terrible experience.2026-08-10
  • reviews1★reported thisWe purchased tickets (Budva - Kotor) online and went to the Budva station. I asked the station whether we would need to print our tickets and they said we only needed to pay the platform fee. We did and then noticed everyone had paper tickets. Our bus was 50 minutes late due to delays and the driver only let a few people on. I tried to show him my PDF ticket and he said 'NO' without even looking and shut the door. The bus left without us and it appeared to be overbooked with passengers sitting in the front stepwell. We ended up having to go back into the station and buy tickets for another bus. I wouldn't use this platform again, it obviously doesn't translate to real tickets with the bus operators.2026-08-12

  • reviews1★Chegando à rodoviária tivemos que pagar outra taxa para poder embarcar no ônibus de 1,50€ cada, ao chegar no ônibus o motorista nos fez pagar mais dois euros por cada mochila (bagagem de mão) para podermos embarcar, ressalvo que quando íamos entrando no ônibus ele puxou meu esposo pela alça da mochila para fora do mesmo nos obrigando a pagar esta taxa. Tanto o motorista como os funcionários da rodoviária foram extremamente grosseiros e muito agrecivos.

The return ticket i'd booked through a different provider had stated it so, we were taken off -guard when we arrived.2025-09-26

Dass man das dann vor Ort noch mal per Mail zum Druck schicken muss und dafür dann sogar noch zwei Euro extra zahlen muss finde ich merkwürdig. Komisch finde ich auch, dass ich für die Ablage vom Rucksack im Gepäckraum des Busses auch noch mal einen Euro zahlen musste. Fühlt sich wie Abzocke an - warum wird nicht gleich alles bei der Buchung kommuniziert, so dass man sich drauf einstellen kann? Denn es musste alles bar bezahlt werden - blöd wenn man gerade kein Bargeld in der Tasche hat... Ansonsten war die Fahrt gut, der Bus klimatisiert und der Preis trotzdem angemessen. Danke2026-06-11

  • reviews1★Hello! I had a negative experience. On December 11, 2025, I purchased a ticket from Tirana to Podgorica on your website for the December 21, 2025, departure time at 1:45 PM. In Podgorica, I was supposed to transfer to a bus to Ukraine (I had a bus ticket from Pogorica to Ukraine). On December 20, Diamant Travel called me and informed me that the bus was not available. They suggested I arrive on December 21 for the 10:15 AM bus. On December 20, I was in Saranda. To catch the 10:15 AM bus, I had to pay €120 for the transfer from Saranda to Tirana. Why are you selling tickets on your website for a bus that is not available?2025-12-22
  • reviews1★The worst Right before we were about to depart, they said, "The bus isn't running today," and "They'll send a smaller bus instead, but you have to pay an additional 10 euros." What an unbelievable response. The bus wasn't running due to their circumstances, but instead of refunding my money, they took even more money from me. The vehicle was a nine-seater minivan. It was extremely uncomfortable, and my seat was in the front row, next to the driver. My seat didn't even have a headrest to lean against. I couldn't stretch my legs out. What was really the worst was that the driver was holding and operating his smartphone the whole time. What if we got into an accident?2026-01-04

  • reviews4★reported thisWe had reserved guaranteed seats but when the bus arrived, it was a free for all with many people paying on the bus. The conductor had to ask people who had their (free) children sitting to move to allow us to sit, but not together. The bus stopped at 5 places on the way to Prishtina adding another 1 hour to the journey so we arrived after 4:30 instead of 3:30. The pick up point was confusing with some people saying stand on the roundabout when the actual stop is behind it. Bus was comfortable and eventually air conditioning was ok. Reasonable price.

  • reviews1★Hola buenas noches , les hago llegar este correo como queja de mi viaje que ADJUNTO IMÁGENES de mi billete para que quede constancia de cual fue . En primer instancia en ningún lado decía que el bus desde peja a tirana tenía un cambio de bus , pero bueno hasta ahí todo entendible . Cuando nos bajamos del bus y nos subimos al bus más pequeño . Durante 45 minutos no arrancó por un desperfecto , un problema del bus . Nada sin problema cosas que pueden pasar …. Una vez subido al bus , fue todo un temor por nuestra vida , primero que el bus iba altísima velocidad mientras el chofer usaba el móvil , el celular , mientras conducía. (tengo imágenes y videos ) . Y en el viaje mientras conducía , FUMABA !!!! Como un chofer va fumar mientras conduce ? Un bus pequeño , SOY ASMÁTICO Y MI MUJER ESTÁ EMBARAZADA , y como si nada el chofer fumaba cigarro con TODO CERRADO . Totalmente inaceptable , exijo la devolución de mi dinero porque fue un viaje de terror . Adjunto mi boleto y si hace falta que envíe tengo las imágenes y los videos del chofer mientras conducía fumando y usando su teléfono celular .2025-10-04

  • reviews1★reported thisWe purchased tickets (Budva - Kotor) online and went to the Budva station. I asked the station whether we would need to print our tickets and they said we only needed to pay the platform fee. We did and then noticed everyone had paper tickets. Our bus was 50 minutes late due to delays and the driver only let a few people on. I tried to show him my PDF ticket and he said 'NO' without even looking and shut the door. The bus left without us and it appeared to be overbooked with passengers sitting in the front stepwell. We ended up having to go back into the station and buy tickets for another bus. I wouldn't use this platform again, it obviously doesn't translate to real tickets with the bus operators.2026-08-12
  • reviews1★reported thisThe bus station doesn't exist. I have to go to the Bar bus station and pay for a new ticket. It's a fraud2026-08-20
  • reviews1★It was delayed by 20 minutes. Then instead of going straight to Kotor as was scheduled, it went to Tivat first. We eventually arrived an hour late with no explanation or apology. The bus driver had a massive argument with a coach station worker because the barrier wouldn't open.2026-06-13
  • reviews1★It was a horrible experience, because nobody told us anything when the bus is arriving, the route was completely wrong because we booked from budva directly to kotor but instead we drove via tivat, what cost us an extra hour because there is always traffic jam. so we arrived in kotor at 21:30 instead of 20:15. thanks for nothing2026-08-28

On the first bus, I had to run at the last minute to get a paper ticket from the travel agency listed. On the return ticket, there was no travel agency in the Ohrid station.

Pavarësisht se kishim bërë rezervimin dhe pagesën përmes Gjirafës, ajo fillimisht nuk dëshironte ta pranonte biletën tonë, duke pretenduar se për të udhëtuar me këtë linjë biletat duhej të bliheshin drejtpërdrejt në agjencinë e tyre në Durrës dhe jo përmes platformës Gjirafa. Për më tepër, na qortoi duke na thënë se “kjo është hera e fundit që ju lejoj të udhëtoni me këso biletash në autobusët tanë”.

  • reviews1★reported thisUnfortunately, I learned that the Pristina-Sofia ticket I bought from Erhan Trans was not valid when I went to the bus station. I went to the bus station and waited, and at 2 p.m the bus did not come. I asked but learned that this company only works on Mondays. Luckily, I came across another company and I had to come to Sofia with Express Company. They also said that no vehicle stops in Sofia center. They said they would leave it at a gas station on the road. If such a company does not work, why is there online ticket sales? What would have happened if I had not found another vehicle? I demand that my grievance be redressed!2024-12-26

  • reviews1★The bus to Sofia on 1.1 2025 at 14.00 did not happen.. The Erhan Trans did not operate. Nobody informed me. You have to return me the money I paid you 30€ ticket plus commission. I expect also to compensate me for the inconvenience and the extra costs that caused this cancelation.2025-01-02
  • reviews1★I missed my bus by 1 min as I brought a gjirafa e-sim that failed to activate. I spent another €12 on a physical sim that also didn’t work, so I missed the bus to the bus station and my bus. With no internet I couldn’t open ticket. I now have to buy another ticket €30 and wait 5 hours. I paid for a hostel at my destination that I will not reach. Where is the customer service?2026-05-12
  • reviews2★The bus journey was OK until we reached our destination, and the driver didn't drop us off! Our tickets stated "Prishtina Station" as our destination, so that's where we were expecting to get off. The driver knew this, having checked our tickets more than once. On arrival in Prishtina, as the bus station came into sight, he briefly pulled over to the side of the road near the bus station, someone quickly got off, and then he carried on driving. We were expecting him to head into the bus station next, as planned. However, he turned on to a highway and started driving away. I went to the front to try to talk to him - he didn't speak English, just kept saying "Prizren" and pointing ahead, as if to say "We're going to Prizren now, get off there". I checked Google Maps, and Prizren was an hour's drive away! No one around me spoke English, and he just kept driving. Luckily, throughout our journey, he'd been making unofficial stops to drop people off in strange places, if they'd requested it. Soon afterwards, he pulled into a petrol station to let someone get off, so we jumped off too. We then had a 30 minute walk to get back to the bus station, where we were meant to be. This wasn't just a misunderstanding - his entire attitude towards us was that he couldn't care less. He either hates his job, or hates foreigners, it was hard to tell which.2026-04-22
  • reviews3★The journey from Belgrade to Prishtina was fine. The journey from Prishtina to Skoder, not good. The bus broke down TWICE. The child in charge spoke good English to let us know what was going on. Then they put us in a small van to go to Shkoder where they made us bring our big backpacks and suitcases inside. I did get to my end destination, albeit 3 hours late.2024-09-28

But I’m trying to buy tickets for 2 more journeys and I can’t because of the bank payment in Kosovo :(2025-09-05

  • reviews1★Per shkak te defekteve te autobusit te Arditi Tours, arritja ne aeroportin e Tiranes me 7 gusht ka ndodhur me 2 ore vonese dhe si pasoje e kesaj vonese e kam humbur fluturimin. Askush nuk ka marre persiper kompenzimin e biletes tjeter, as shpenzimet deri ne momentin e fluturimit te ardhshem. Pervoja e udhetimit ka qene e tmerrshme, duke filluar nga niveli i me i ulet i pastertise ne autobus, mungesa e klimatizimit te ajrit ne autobus ne temperatura mbi 35 grade celzius, si dhe sjellja e pahijshme e stafit, te cilet ne nje periudhe te ndaleses na mbyllen ne autobus dhe nuk ofronin informate se cfare eshte duke ndodhur, e as nuk ofronin ndonje alternative te udhetimit. Zbarkimi i udhetareve nuk eshte bere te aeroporti i Tiranes, por 500m me larg, ne nje rruge ku nuk ka trotuare, por je i/e detyruar te ecesh me bagazh ne rruge ku ecin makinat. Njesoj lidhur me kthimin per ne Prishtine, mesazhi per te qene 30 minuta me heret te vendi eshte i pakuptimte, meqe linku i imbarkimit te orienton ne nje vend tjeter, ndersa autobusi ndalet ne vend tjeter dhe per me keq, vonohet 15 minuta nga ora e parapare e nisjes. Uroj qe t'i beni permiresimet e nevojshme dhe te nderpreni bashkepunimin me Arditi Tours, ndaj te cileve do te ngreh padi.2026-08-17

Operator Olgeno Travel & Tours · Operator-wide pattern · severity score 10

When riders presented paid e-tickets at boarding, drivers refused them or demanded extra payment, forcing travelers to explain or pay twice. This breaks the core promise of online booking and creates stress at the moment of travel when 2 reports show the problem, yet 43 of 71 reviews rate the line 4-5 stars.

  • reviews2★reported thisBus operator seemed very suspicious of gjirafa travel and tried to direct us to another bus even though he was the one taking us to Himara. Once we got on the bus, his colleage tried to double charge us because he didn’t understand what booking online meant. AC was dripping water everywhere on the bus.2026-08-05
  • reviews4★reported thisThe online booking process was quick and straightforward, which I really appreciated. However, I encountered several issues during the actual travel experience. When I presented my ticket to the drivers, it took quite a bit of explaining before they accepted it, which made things stressful. On one of my trips, I was even directed to the wrong bus for the second leg of the journey and ended up having to pay a second fare. Additionally, the departure times listed during booking didn’t match the actual schedules—for example, I booked a 7 PM bus, but the operator informed me that only a 3 PM bus was running that day (which I only found out after calling the tour operator just in case). Overall, while the platform is easy to use, better coordination and communication with local bus operators is definitely needed to ensure a smoother travel experience.2025-06-01

Ne nje autobuz 50 vendesh, shoferi ka hipur 70 veta qe e kane bere rrugen himare tirane ne kembe brenda ne autobuz. Njerez te ulur e te shtrire ne korridorin e autobuzit, me keq skishim provuar ndonjehere. Nje linje qe premton rrugen pa ndalesa dhe qe ndalon cdo 10 km per te ngarkuar pasagjere te tjere kur autobuzi eshte plot. Turp!2024-09-01

  • reviews1★My bus from Shkoder to Himare arrived 2 hours later than indicated and I was not dropped at the indicated drop off location either. My ticket clearly stated Himare bus station as the drop off location and the driver stopped outside a hostel which was a 20 minute walk from the bus station and therefore a 30 minute walk from where I was staying. A very rude and arrogant man then got on telling me and everyone else we need to get off and that we should’ve asked the travel company (ie: you) to be more specific about where we were going to be dropped and he was extremely aggressive about it. Eventually we got him and the actual driver to drop us 5 minutes further into the centre as we were nowhere near. However this was still not the designated drop off spot and we were all extremely unimpressed. I would have booked a different ticket had I known it was going to drop me nowhere near the centre/bus station.2025-07-17

  • reviews1★Bus had 4h delay. Olgeno Travels is the name. This is the worst company I have ever dealt with. You should probably stop working with them. I will never use your service again.2026-08-13
  • reviews2★Ride with Riviera tours from Tirana to Himare – absolutely horrific. It was 35-40 degrees inside the bus without the possiblity to open windows. It was close to panic mode I'd say, as we knew we'd be sitting in those tiny seats for 3-4 hours with almost no oxygen and sweat literally pouring down everyone's faces. Also, the driver was both rude and didn't have any pull to be of help – only to collect people's money as quickly as possible. At one point I also tried calling Giraja, but got a snappy, unhelpful response to "just go!" when asking about where the bus would actually leave from, as this was not exactly clear on the ticket or the internet. The return bus with Olgeno as the bus operator was way better. The bus was cooler, more spacious and the driver was helpful, albeit "Balkan intense". It was still not clear though where the bus would be picking us up in Himare as the ticket, internet searches and people at our destination all said different things. After a call directly to Olgeno, that was clarified by a helpful representative. To note: the return bus was delayed by 40 minutes or so. Overall experience with Gjirafa would've been better if they actually tried to help you when you call them, if they would greatly discount the ticket price when they know they have a bus that is dangerous to travel in (especially as a non-acclimatized tourist), and properly inform the passengers of how drop-off and pick-up works in Albania – this should not have to be discovered at the very last minute. Would not book with Gjirafa again, but go straight to the bus operators that are reputable or rent my own car.2025-08-19
  • reviews2★Aren't the buses too old for road traffic? Are they still safe? We traveled four times. On the first trip, there were problems with the seats. We were given tickets in Albanian. No one understood that the seats were assigned. No one explained it. It was chaos. Please translate the tickets into English or have someone explain it to the passengers. On the last trip, we arrived late at the airport. The bus driver picked up hitchhikers on the road and dropped them off where they wanted to go. That's not OK. Luckily, we made it to our return flight on time. This needs to be better organized.2025-09-16
  • reviews2★We traveled from Himara to Tirana. There was no signage for the bus stop anywhere in Himara. We arrived an hour later than expected.

2 riders reported that paid tickets were rejected at boarding or did not work as promised: one was not added to the passenger list, and one had to pay extra because a direct ticket became a transfer without notice. We need to fix how tickets move from Gjirafa to the operator and how we show what passengers will actually travel, or riders lose money and trust.

We sprinted there, and found out that the Kotor station needs to validate the tickets. By the time all that happened the bus had departed. We needed to buy 2 new tickets, so we technically never used this service. Likely will not use again, Flixbus is far superior.2026-08-10

For the return journey our tickets were not recognized by the driver at Albani Tours who said we had travelled with a different provider (Arditi) on the way in we had to pay again. We refused and after much discussions and call to Gjirafa we managed to get on the bus. Overall your service was good but your providers (Arditi and Albani Tours) need to provide a better overall service.2025-08-10

  • reviews1★reported thisTerrible and Unacceptable Experience I had a valid ticket and boarded the bus on time. The bus was full, yet the company allowed more passengers to get on. Then, shockingly, the driver asked us — the ticketed passengers — to give up our seats so the newly boarded passengers could sit down. As a result, I had to sit on a plastic stool in the aisle for 2.5 hours of the journey. This is not only extremely uncomfortable but also illegal and unsafe. It's outrageous that a company would prioritize overbooking and profit over passenger safety and dignity. The staff showed no respect or concern, and there was no apology or explanation. This kind of behavior is unacceptable for any transportation company. Conclusion: If you care about your safety, rights, and comfort — do not travel with this company. This was one of the worst travel experiences of my life. Even one star is too generous.2025-07-14
  • reviews4★reported thisVan was on time and had aircon. Dropped 1 star because there was no option to reserve seats but when I arrived at the van the first several rows were reserved and not available.2025-07-12
  • reviews1★The driver from Berat to Tirana dos not admit the pass in my Passbook and I had to pay again in cash, which I had to borrow from another passenger2026-03-27
  • reviews2★Your have bad interface and I booked ticket for a wrong date2024-09-04
  • reviews2★The ticket is saying we must be at the bus stop at least 30 mins before the departure, but this instruction is dangerous for South-North Bus Terminal in Tirana because there is no shop, toilet, bench, even nor roofs! Making passengers wait outside for more than 30 mins in the summer Albania will kill them some day. Waiting inside a bus (if they are lucky to find it) is also quite dangerous because the temperature should have been much higher (probably 40 degrees or more) than outside.2026-07-22
  • reviews2★Arrived over an hour late, which barely left us enough time to navigate the self transfer. If we weren’t fit and able to run, as well as have the luck of finding a taxi quickly, we would have missed the next ride (which also arrived at the destination an hour late).2026-08-19

  • reviews3★Where Girafa says the bus is going to be is NOT where the bus picks people up!! I don’t understand. It’s very frustrating.2025-06-23

  • reviews3★The bus left on time. That was the good. The bad was the driver smoking cigarettes. I know smoking is big in Albanian culture but forcing a group of people to sit in a vehicle while you smoke is crazy,2026-06-04
  • reviews3★It is not clear to whom the e-ticket should be presented to. One case I had to show the e-tickets to a lady in a office, who printed a receipt… Other case the driver took a picture of the e-ticket.2026-08-22

  • reviews4★reported thisComfortable coach bus to Skopje but very small cramped mini bus on the return journey. Timings pretty accurate for departure and arrival although timing for departure was actually half an hour earlier than advised so lucky that we gave ourselves plenty of time to find the bus stop/bus office2026-06-11
  • reviews1★The bus was canselled without any infomation at al. The next bus was smal and owerbooked. Will not book this again!2025-04-21
  • reviews1★It was terrible. The seat was very narrow, especially for taller people. I was also sitting above the wheel, which made my legs sit at an awkward angle. My knees were pressed against the seat in front of me the entire way, and after 30 minutes, it became extremely painful. That made a 3-hour ride feel incredibly long.2025-05-25
  • reviews1★Very poor condition bus-seatbelts didn’t work,seat was broken and ac ineffective.2025-06-17
  • reviews1★They're selling more tickets than they have seats. And they're not buses, but small vans with limited legroom and barely any room for luggage. In our van, about 30% more passengers wanted to ride than was possible. The driver took everyone away, saying it wasn't his problem.2025-07-09
  • reviews1★I had to pay 30 Macedonian denars for a printed ticket, and the driver asked me for extra money for my luggage.2025-07-27
  • reviews1★The bus had almost no leg room and broken seats. It was a really uncomfortable journey, especially as I was with my 78 year old father.2025-08-31
  • reviews1★It was not a “bus”, rather a “mini-bus”. And it was extremely old, crowded, filthy, and hot inside. The driver did not open air-conditioning. It smell awful. One of the worst journeys ever.2025-09-15
  • reviews1★The bus seemed as if it had not seen maintenance since the fall of the Soviet Union. There was no air-conditioning for majority of the trip, and the driver stopped at least 6 times to pick up random passengers. Overall, I would simply pick Flixbus next time.2025-09-26

  • reviews1★Bought ticket but staff member made me pay cash2026-05-08
  • reviews1★Dear Sir/Madam, I purchased an online ticket for the Gazmend Turist bus service from Ohrid to Skopje on 17 May 2026. Trip details are as follows: • Company: Gazmend Turist • Departure station: Ohrid Station • Arrival station: Skopje Station • Departure time: 18:00 • Arrival time: 21:00 • Passenger count: 1 • Total amount paid: 29.70 € Although I arrived at the designated departure location on time, I was informed that the bus was not departing from there. Due to incorrect or insufficient information regarding the departure point, I was unable to find the correct bus and therefore could not use my ticket. As this issue was caused by misinformation, I kindly request a full refund for the unused ticket. I would appreciate your prompt response regarding this matter. Thank you in advance. Best regards, Buse Yalçın2026-05-18
  • reviews1★It was not a bus but rather a van where the driver constantly smoked and the AC didn’t work. The ride was late, made unplanned stops and in general was a chaotic, stressful experience. Do not recommend Classic Company.2026-06-10

  • reviews1★The bus was quite old, and several seats had fallen off. As a result, I couldn't relax or feel comfortable at all. Also, although it was good that we arrived almost an hour earlier than scheduled, the bus was going quite fast on the mountain roads, which made me very carsick.2026-08-05

I tried once more to book 14th, but it didn't work, after confirming my booking, I was only asked to buy an eSim card, but nothinh happened, no confirmation for 14th! Please tell me quickly if there is a bus on Sunday or not. That was my bad experience. I never got an answer to my request, I had to leave Podgorica one day earlier and moreover I had to pay 3€ at the bus station, because they needed a printed copy of my ticket.2025-09-17
  • reviews2★The way to go was perfect. The way back was bad, because I wanted to change the departure time and that was not possible. I lost the money for the ticket. To be honest, the next time I will not choose Gjirafa.2026-05-06
  • reviews2★I was asked to pay more fees at the station. I would have appreciated a heads-up if that’s just protocol. And also, the bus terminated at a different location, which resulted in 28 min walk (with heavy suitcases) instead of 12 min.2026-05-25

I went to the bus station and waited, and at 2 p.m the bus did not come. I asked but learned that this company only works on Mondays. Luckily, I came across another company and I had to come to Sofia with Express Company. They also said that no vehicle stops in Sofia center. They said they would leave it at a gas station on the road. If such a company does not work, why is there online ticket sales? What would have happened if I had not found another vehicle?

2 riders reported they could not sit in a seat: 1 sat on a stool in the aisle, and 1 says the driver sold seats twice and gave front seats to people he knew. This means we overbooked the bus or did not keep our seat plan honest.

2 riders reported that staff required advance confirmation at the ticket office before boarding, then charged extra fees when passengers had bought tickets online, and seated them on a smaller second bus instead of the main one. This costs us trust and repeat customers on a line that 2 other riders rated 5 stars.

Me ne fund, ata na lejuan te hypim ne nje autobus te dyte te vogel (jo ne ate kryesorin). Ne autobus, konduktori na mori edhe nga 3 euro shtese (6 euro per dy udhetaret sa ishim), duke perdorur te njejtin argument, se nuk e kishim bere konfirmimin e udhetimit paraprakisht, prandaj duhej kjo pagese shtese. Gjate asaj kohe, provuam te lidhemi me sherbimin e Gjirafa travel, per t'ia spjeguar situaten, megjithate, duke qene se kishte kaluar ora 17:00, operatori ne telefon na sygjeronte qe duhej te perdornim kanale te tjera te komunikimit. Kjo eshte pervoja jone. Me sa e kemi pare, edhe njerezve te tjere ne autobus u eshte kerkuar te paguajne nga 3 euro shtese (megjithse, nuk e dijme nese ata poashtu kan pasur bileta te blera online apo jo).2026-08-12

The operator sold more tickets than available seats, forcing 2 passengers to stand in the aisle and causing 1 traveler a 2-hour delay on a later trip. We need to fix the booking system to match actual seat count or face more complaints and lost customers on this otherwise well-rated line.

The driver asked two people to stand up their seats and gave them to us. They travelled sitting down in the bus aisle. Two days later, we had book tickets to depart at 8:30 from Sarande to Tirana, we arrived at 8:20 and they asked as to do manual checking and the bus was overbooked again. The drivers told us to take the bus at 9:30. We arrived around 3pm but we should have arrived in Tirana at 12:50.2026-08-13

  • reviews1★reported thisPaid for a "guaranteed seat" but the bus was full.. had to stand for the entire trip. No-one checked the tickets so I guess someone didn't pay or they just can't count and over booked it.2026-05-20
  • reviews1★reported thisHi, we booked bus tickets from Budva to Kotor for 09:00 today for 6 individuals. Firstly, the bus was over 35 minutes late to the bus station. Then we discovered that there was only 1 free seat in the entire bus. This resulted in us, and many others having to stand in a packed bus for the duration of the journey. There were also many people with tickets for this bus who was left standing on the bus station due to the lack of both standing and sitting space. I am writing now as I stand in the bus squished between seats and people. The air conditioning is not enough to compensate for the body heat from the many overbooked people. Overbooking is not okay. It has resulted in a major safety risk in case of a traffic accident and standing for 45 minuted in a packed and hot bus is not what was advertised when we bought the ticket. We at the minimum expect to get compensated forthe tickets for this very unplesant experience travelling with the bus company booked through your site. Regards, Steinar Hamre2026-08-03

Not having assigned seats is a real problem as everyone barges, nudges to get a seat.

  • reviews1★reported thisArditi Tours was terrible. They oversold the seats og we were almost 30 passengers who had to switch buses 3 times, before we finally were on our way. We ended up on a old bus whith no air-conditioning, and the driver drove like an idiot to try and make up for the lost time, risking all our lives several times. When we got to the airport they dropped us off by the highway about 1,5 km away from the airport! Several passangers got angry and asked why they didn't drive all the way to the airport when the ticket we paid for says TO TIRANA AIRPORT, the driver god mad and started yelling to us to get us off the bus. One guy got into a physical altercation because he demanded the driver drop us of at the airport or somewhere safe and not on the heavy trafficked road, he had luggage and was carrying a small baby and didn't want to walk almost 2 km in 35 C what the baby and luggage. The driver pushed him of the bus and yelled at him. All in all a terrible experience. I have travelled all over Asia, East-Afrika and South-America, but never had a more shocking experience than this. Never met less service minded people as the operators at Arditi Tours. And I bet every single person on that same bus would agree.2026-08-08

  • reviews1★The bus ride was an absolute nightmare. The driver arrived 40 minutes late and then insisted on running the air conditioning while we were still waiting. We finally left with about an hour’s delay. After roughly one hour of driving, the bus suddenly stopped on the highway and we were stuck there for another 40 minutes. The bus was overcrowded—so many people were crammed in that some passengers had to sit on the stairs. During the highway stop, the driver didn’t even pull the handbrake, so the bus rolled backwards several meters while we were all inside. On the highway! It was advertised as a direct trip with no stops, but instead the driver made nine additional stops. In the end, we arrived more than two hours late. Never again.2025-08-16

They literally dropped us off on the freeway and pointed in a vague direction of a public bus across the road. We missed our connection and were delayed by several hours.

However we had to switch to a minibus after Tirana airport. The minibus lacked some seatbelts and was not comfortable at all. The driver drove to fast considering the state of the road, condition of the minibus and lack of seatbelt. We chose seats with seatbelts for the children and another family on board. Myself, pregnant was stuck in the back Seat with no belt and luggage next to me. There were no information about a bus change when tickets were purchased. The last leg of the journey felt verry unsafe! We Are left with the experience that the bus company is not a serious company!2026-07-09

When I returned from Prizren, the van left at 9:30, 30 minutes late (the ticket said it was supposed to leave at 9:00). Thank you for allowing me to give feedback.2026-08-26

  • reviews2★reported thisThe bus was way too hot; it had no air conditioning on the ride, which wasn't that big of a problem in Kosovo as it was cold there when we left. But when we got closer to Shkodër in Albania, it got way too hot. And with no air conditioning, it wasn't pleasant at all for the last two hours of the ride. But that's not my biggest problem, as it said online that the bus would arrive in Shkodër at 11:50, but it didn't get there before 13:39. It resulted in me missing my bus from Shkodër to Podgorica at 13:15. Please update the arrival time on your website so people don't get into this dilemma again.2024-10-22
  • reviews3★reported thisNo air condition on the bus2025-01-30
  • reviews1★Terrible, the driver kept taking frequent, unnecessary, lengthy breaks. This resulted in a 2 hour delay, despite no traffic jams. Because of this, I missed my connecting bus in Shkoder, lost money on a bought ticket, and was forced to seek alternative transportation to my final destination. One example of the driver taking a break was when the bus left Prizren at 10:00, and at 10:05 he stops at a supermarket, says "5 minute break", which turns into 30 minutes. I expect as a paying customer, that the bus company will adhere to the posted schedule of bus stops.2024-09-30

  • reviews1★We decided not to take the bus we had booked in Albania after our hotel manager kindly called the bus company to confirm whether it would arrive at the destination on time. We were told it would not - apparently, buses in Albania often stop for extended coffee breaks, leading to delays of over an hour in reaching the final destination. It’s unclear how bus companies are allowed to operate like this without accountability. We had to take an expensive taxi instead.2025-06-11
  • reviews1★The bus didn’t have seats for everyone even for people with tickets that was ordered many months in advance. Prepare to stand up for up to 5 hours. The information on the ticket is incorrect. The trip from Tirana to Dhermi and return took 5 hours instead of 2.5 hours as stated in the ticket. If you have another transfer option I would highly recommend to avoid using this bus service.2025-06-12

2 riders report the bus had no air-conditioning on very hot days, making passengers suffer from heat and stuffiness during the journey. This is a concrete equipment failure that affects comfort on a route where 37 of 60 reviews gave 1-2 stars, mostly for overbooking and long delays rather than temperature control.

  • reviews1★reported thisWe had very bad experience. On the website we booked the bus says that the journey from Vlore to Saranda takes 3 hours and it says the journey is direct, the bus operator was Transbus. However,the bus took five and half hour to arrive, because the driver over loaded passengers, he stopped many places to pick up passengers, many people had to stand on the bus for the whole journey, it was a very hot day the bus had no air condition, everyone was suffering with the heat and stuffy bus. The bus is not same with over loading passsengers as it was difficult to go up the hill it went slowly like walking. Because it was so hot the driver had to open the bus door during the journey to let some fresh air comes in. The bus was old and dirty. l do not recommend this journey.2026-08-17

  • reviews1★Found out on the bus that the ticket price online was double what people were paying on the bus. Could have just shown up and paid there2025-05-26
  • reviews1★Very unorganized, cause they sold more tickets than the seats.2025-06-17
  • reviews1★The trip from Vlore to Sarande was not good at all. First, the scheduled arrival was supposed to be 14h30, but we only arrived at 15h30, not because of the traffic, but because the driver decided to stop 1h only after our departure from Vlora at a cafe on our way, and also kept stopping several times on the way to pick-up and drop-off people. Because of this delay, I nearly could have missed a tour that I’ve booked in Sarande. Moreover, the bus in itself was not good with the smell of the engine smoke all the way. So definitely not a good trip unfortunately, and sorry for this feedback but it’s the truth.2025-06-26
  • reviews1★Really upset, I expect reimbursement. The information about the travel is totally incorrect : none of the many stops is displayed on the ticket. Including the other ones in Vlora that could have arranged us. The time of arrival is totally wrong (18h30 instead of 16h30). That made our decision to take this trip irrelevant, since we miss all buses in saranda. Please contact us to reimburse us2025-07-09
  • reviews1★I paid 33euros for 2 passengers online for a trip from Vlore station to Saranda which would have cost just 20 euros if we had paid at the bus station. First off, it took a while to find your representative at Vlore station. We took off at 2.30 but the bus was moved very slowly and practically picked /drop off passengers at almost every stop/city. Meanwhile on your website you states that the trip was a direct 2 hours trip to Sarande. To make matters worse, the vehicle developed a fault on our way and we waited for almost an hour for them to get it fixed. This is the worst bus service I’ve ever experienced. A trip that was supposed to take 2 hours took us over 5 hours. It’s bad enough that we paid almost double of what we should have paid had we not booked on your website.2025-07-14
  • reviews1★I had bought tickets for 2 of us but the bus was overbooked and they allowed the people who did not buy tickets to have seats. We had to stand in the middle of bus, around 14 of ys had to stand. The bus was overcrowded and very unsafe. It was so crowded that the door to bus wasn’t fully closed. Horrible experience. The driver did not care. Especially that are disabled with hearing loss.2025-07-16

Très déçu, j'espère être remboursé2025-08-26

  • reviews1★There was no connection between the service we booked in the app and what we got when we arrived at the bus station. We certainly took whichever bus was scheduled for the time slot we bought but it was a small 12-13 seat van, which stopped in every possible spot along the way to pickup/drop off passengers, drove insanely unsafely, speeding in curvy roads while raining and making what was initially sold as a 2 hour direct (inland/highway) trip into a 3.5 hours coastal nerve wrecking night ride. The worst bus ride ever.2025-12-31
  • reviews1★I ordered a ticket and went to the stop on the other side of town, even though I had never heard of buses going there. Slightly early the bus drove by, and it drove past me. I was the only person sitting there at the spot. It has been 2 days and I’ve only been told they’ll analyze the situation.2026-02-23
  • reviews1★Very bad service2026-04-10
  • reviews1★The trip was very disappointing. At first, the driver was driving extremely slowly for a long time and was always on his phone, sometimes only around 30 km/h. Later, the complete opposite happened: he drove down the winding mountain roads far too fast and recklessly, which felt very unsafe and uncomfortable. On top of that, the journey took about one and a half hours longer than originally scheduled. Overall, it was not a pleasant experience at all. Next time, I will definitely choose a different bus company. I didnt felt Safe!!!2026-05-19
  • reviews1★We booked online and I was heading immediately to the toilet after we arrived. I had the ticket on my mobil.

Also I think it’s important to provide a number to whom clients can write on Whatsapp, as many tourist only have internet. The bus didn’t have any places where to sit, so my friends and I stayed on our feet for most of the travel. I would never recommend this website.2026-06-27

I bought a ticket online for the trip from Himarë to Sarandë, but your driver arrived in a minibus that was already full; he left me and several other people behind, assuring us that another bus would arrive in 10 minutes—which never happened. I nearly missed my ferry to Corfu and my flight!😡2026-07-22

  • reviews1★For a 1.5 hour bus ride. It was one of the most distressing experiences in my travels. Tiny mini bus, with people having to stand and suitcases in the middle. Minimal air conditioner on a very hot day, had a lot of people beyond stressed from the heat and discomfort.2026-08-17
  • reviews1★The bus is NOT direct, he stops for random people and at main stops. The driver was not polite to me, travelling alone he watched me struggle to put the bags in the undercarriage then proceeded to shout in his language that it’s been put in wrong, I later watched him help multiple people with their luggage. He also snatched my personal bag off me to put in the under carriage and another passenger beckoned him to give it back as he understood my English when I said “I have medicine in that bag” DO BOT BOOK WITH TRANSBUS. Also the journey was 5 and a half hours from vlore to saranda.2026-08-18

  • reviews1★The bus from Himara to Saranda was completely overcrowded. More than half of the passengers had to stand, even though we had paid for a guaranteed seat included in the ticket price. Some people couldn’t even get on in Himara because there was no space left. It was extremely hot and felt very unsafe with so many people standing. Definitely not worth the price ,very disappointing.2026-08-26

  • reviews4★I am writing to express my extreme dissatisfaction with the experience we had on our journey from Vlora to Saranda with your company. Firstly, the driver was extremely aggressive towards us and attempted to overcharge us a significant amount for our bicycles. We had to negotiate for a long time just to get on the bus, and the staff did not assist us with loading or unloading the bikes, which we had to disassemble ourselves. Additionally, the trip was supposed to take about two hours, but it ended up taking over four hours with more than twenty stops along the way. The driver also smoked in front of us and drove in a very dangerous manner. Furthermore, the driver arbitrarily set the price, which was unacceptable. Given these issues, I am requesting an immediate refund for the service provided. I look forward to your prompt response. Sincerely,2025-08-07

  • reviews1★reported thisTerrible bus, no climatización and 37 degrees Celsius outside. Driver was stopping 4 times to check and buy watermelons even if we were more than one hour late.2025-07-06
  • reviews1★reported thisDiamant travel tried to scam me and threatened me. They tried to make me pay 10 euros more for check in. They had a printed paper saying that all travelers have to pay 5 euros. When I asked them they said it's for montenegro. I told them I would call the police and later they refused me the entrance to the bus as I should wait for the police I called. Please do something because they threaten people, take more money than they should (i doubt 5 euros for check in are needed). I will send the same information to any Albanian official needed.2025-08-25
  • reviews1★reported thisVery poor and lacking communication. Checked my bus the day before and it said the bus was going from a different location, verified by the live AI chat, so I went there instead. Travel company staff were then incredibly rude and told me I should've gone to the original stop, even though there was no longer a bus listed from there on the website. Communication between them and ticket websites should be much better.2026-08-26
  • reviews1★reported thisDear Sir/Madam, I am writing to formally complain about my recent journey from Tirana to Budva. Unfortunately, the entire experience was extremely stressful, poorly organised and, in several respects, unacceptable for a long-distance international bus service. The problems started before the bus even arrived. Passengers were instructed to arrive 30 minutes before departure, which we did. The scheduled departure time was 14:15, but we only actually departed after 15:00. The departure point itself was extremely confusing. There was a designated area for buses, and unlike the other operators, there was no clear sign identifying the departure point for this particular service. Several passengers were completely lost and had no idea whether we were in the correct place. We tried repeatedly to obtain information and called the company by telephone, but nobody answered. We were left walking around the area, carrying heavy suitcases and backpacks, trying to find someone who could tell us what was happening. Nobody seemed to know anything about this particular company or where the bus was supposed to arrive. The situation was made even more concerning by the different company names involved in the booking and the actual transportation. I purchased my ticket through Gjirafa, and my ticket clearly identifies Diamond as the company associated with the service. However, the vehicle that eventually arrived was identified as Supreme Travel and Tours, a completely different company. There was no clear explanation whatsoever as to the relationship between these companies or why a vehicle operating under the name Supreme Travel and Tours was being used for a journey booked and ticketed under Diamond. This was particularly concerning because the departure point was completely unmarked, nobody at the location seemed to know where the bus was supposed to arrive, and our attempts to contact the company by telephone were unsuccessful. As tourists in a foreign country, we were therefore left waiting for a vehicle whose identity did not correspond to the company clearly identified on our tickets. This created a genuine concern about whether we were boarding the correct authorised transport. Passengers should not have to resolve this kind of uncertainty themselves. There was also no equipment available to scan or properly validate our QR-code tickets. This made the boarding process even more confusing and reinforced the general lack of organisation. When the bus finally arrived, there was another serious problem: there were already passengers on board. Consequently, there were not enough proper seats for everyone who had been waiting at the departure point. One of the female passengers who had been waiting with us from the beginning was ultimately forced to sit next to the driver because there was no proper seat available for her. I find this completely unacceptable. Passengers who have purchased and paid for a ticket should be guaranteed an appropriate seat on the vehicle. A vehicle that arrives already partially occupied and does not have enough proper seats for the passengers booked at the departure point is simply not an appropriate vehicle for the service. The condition of the bus was also extremely poor, particularly considering that this was a long-distance international journey. Several elements of the seats were broken, the air conditioning was not functioning properly, and the window next to my seat could not be closed. As a result, direct sunlight was shining onto me for a significant part of the journey. After several hours, this became extremely uncomfortable and physically painful. I also found the driver’s behaviour extremely concerning. He was repeatedly using his mobile phone while driving, which I consider unacceptable from a safety perspective. At the same time, he was driving extremely slowly. Other buses and vehicles were repeatedly overtaking us, despite the fact that we were already considerably delayed. There was also an unnecessary stop during the journey. The driver stopped and asked whether anyone wanted to get off. Nobody wanted to get off, as we were already considerably behind schedule. Nevertheless, the driver left the bus and went to eat, while all the passengers remained waiting. Given the existing delay, I found this particularly inappropriate and unprofessional. This was a personal break for the driver’s benefit rather than a necessary passenger stop. There was also an issue regarding luggage. The driver attempted to charge me an additional €2 for my backpack. I explained that I wanted to keep my backpack with me, but he told me that there was no space inside the bus. Eventually, he placed it in the luggage compartment and apparently did not charge me the €2. Again, the issue was not simply the amount of money involved, but the lack of clear information regarding the luggage policy and the manner in which the situation was handled. I am also very concerned about the way passengers’ identity documents were handled. Our passports were collected by the staff and then passed from person to person as a pile, meaning that passengers were able to see other passengers’ passports and personal information. The same thing happened again at the end of the journey. Instead of the passports being individually returned to their respective owners by the responsible staff member, the entire pile was passed from passenger to passenger, with each person having to identify and take their own passport. I found this handling of passengers’ passports highly inappropriate and concerning from a privacy and security perspective. Passports contain sensitive personal information and should be handled carefully and returned directly to their respective owners, rather than being passed around among passengers. Most importantly, the journey eventually took approximately five and a half hours. I want to make it clear that this was not primarily due to the border crossing, which was actually relatively quick. The excessive journey time was largely the result of the late departure and the extremely slow progress of the bus. Considering that passengers are specifically instructed to arrive 30 minutes before departure, it is particularly frustrating to be expected to arrive early while the company itself provides such an unreliable service. I paid more than €30 for this journey, which is not an insignificant amount. For this price, I expected at least a properly organised, reliable and safe international bus service, with a clearly identified departure point, appropriate seating, a suitable and properly maintained vehicle, professional conduct from the driver and appropriate handling of passengers’ documents. Instead, the experience involved: * a significantly delayed departure; * an unmarked and confusing departure point; * nobody answering the company’s telephone; * passengers being left without information; * multiple and apparently unrelated company names involved in the booking and transportation; * a ticket identifying Diamond, while the vehicle was identified as Supreme Travel and Tours; * no equipment to scan our QR-code tickets; * insufficient proper seating for passengers; * a passenger being forced to sit next to the driver; * broken seats and other elements of the bus; * inadequate air conditioning; * a window that could not be closed; * direct sunlight causing significant discomfort during the journey; * the driver repeatedly using his mobile phone while driving; * unnecessarily slow driving; * an unnecessary stop for the driver’s personal meal despite the considerable delay; * an unclear attempt to charge an additional luggage fee; * inappropriate handling of passengers’ passports; * and a total journey time of approximately five and a half hours. I consider this level of service completely unacceptable for an international journey costing more than €30. Furthermore, the vehicle that was actually provided was clearly inadequate for a journey of this length and did not appear to correspond to the service that passengers had reasonably been led to expect when purchasing their tickets. Given the substantial difference between the service purchased and the service actually provided, together with the significant delay, poor condition of the vehicle, inadequate seating, safety concerns and overall lack of professional organisation, I am requesting a refund of 50% of the ticket price as reasonable compensation for the inadequate service provided. I have photographic evidence documenting the condition of the vehicle, including the damaged seats and other issues described above, and I can provide this evidence upon request. I also retain my booking confirmation and ticket. I ask that you take this complaint seriously and provide a written response addressing the issues raised above, including my request for a 50% refund. I look forward to receiving your response. Kind regards, Susana2026-08-31
  • reviews3★reported thisThe worse bus that we have taken in Europe. The driver was impolite and he was stopping several times in the middle of the street to smoke. Also we arrived 2 h later to Athens which was a risk to loose our ferry. On the other hand, we had to change our bus because a little one (of your company), took us to a ugly place to take the second bus.2026-04-19

Needless to say that this company, Diamant Travel doesn’t handle passengers as she found out but only PARCELS. After long time, she managed with the help of people from other bus line to get going with another company but from the other bus station which is about 20 minutes away. And instead of leaving at 02:45 she left after a scary morning around 04:30.2025-05-31

C’est une personne de la société AL-Travel qui nous a accueilli… difficile de s’y retrouver ! Nos billets n’ont pas pu être imprimés par la société qui ne trouvait pas nos noms dans la liste de réservations. Heureusement que le chauffeur nous a aidé et a accepté de nous prendre à bord… Il faut mettre à jour le système de réservation en ligne qui ne semble pas fonctionner correctement.2025-09-04
  • reviews1★Worst travel day of my life! I don't think the bus you sold my ticket for was still running - someone on the bus that eventually came to get us said there was no earlier bus anymore. Delays, seat mix-ups, loud chaotic music, hit by a truck - a very very long stressful day of travel.2025-09-12

  • reviews1★I sent an email because the bus to Podgorica never arrived and I want a refund2025-12-14
  • reviews1★Hello! I had a negative experience. On December 11, 2025, I purchased a ticket from Tirana to Podgorica on your website for the December 21, 2025, departure time at 1:45 PM. In Podgorica, I was supposed to transfer to a bus to Ukraine (I had a bus ticket from Pogorica to Ukraine). On December 20, Diamant Travel called me and informed me that the bus was not available. They suggested I arrive on December 21 for the 10:15 AM bus. On December 20, I was in Saranda. To catch the 10:15 AM bus, I had to pay €120 for the transfer from Saranda to Tirana. Why are you selling tickets on your website for a bus that is not available?2025-12-22
  • reviews1★The worst Right before we were about to depart, they said, "The bus isn't running today," and "They'll send a smaller bus instead, but you have to pay an additional 10 euros." What an unbelievable response. The bus wasn't running due to their circumstances, but instead of refunding my money, they took even more money from me. The vehicle was a nine-seater minivan. It was extremely uncomfortable, and my seat was in the front row, next to the driver. My seat didn't even have a headrest to lean against. I couldn't stretch my legs out. What was really the worst was that the driver was holding and operating his smartphone the whole time. What if we got into an accident?2026-01-04
  • reviews1★You advertised, and I bought a ticket, from Tirana to Athens on a bus that doesn't exist. Instead, l was placed on a bus with a 2 hour later departure, that arrived in Athens, at a different location 10 mins before check-in for a return flight to Australia. I had to catch a cab to the airport. 100AUD. STRESS!!! You dogs.2026-04-09

  • reviews3★the joyrney was sold to us as a 4 hour direct trip, but it ended up taking more than 6 hours, in a van with no air conditioning and no windows during the hottest hours of the day. Aldo, There was no way of knowing when the van would arrive at the station because we didn't even know the type of vehicle. we had to contact customer service to get that information, and once they got there, they told us we needed to pay 2€ in order to get pur luggage into the van, as if we hadn't paid enough for the trip.2026-07-12
  • reviews3★Our buss was an hour late after we were told to be there 30 minutes before, so we waited for 90 minutes. The bus was also delayed ok the journey so we arrived at our destination over 2 hours later than we expected.2026-08-28
  • reviews4★The travel experience was horrific!! The Diamand Travel bus didn’t exist, and the Jadran Ekspres we took didn’t want to take us. Almost got dropped off at the border. All this while being in the middle of a violent screaming between the driver and the representative of Diamand Travel. The only good thing was the excellent service of the attentive customer representative of Gjirafa who helped us solve the issue (via whatsapp) Yet, I’m still waiting for my refund.2025-06-28

  • reviews2★Todo hay que reconocerlo, si nos centramos en que el fin justifica los medios... Llegamos a la hora planeada, por lo que la puntualidad no es el problema aquí. La aventura empieza en un autobús al borde de la jubilación, en el cual su conductor te solicita dos euros extra por maleta o mochila que quieras llevar en el maletero. Hasta aquí vale. Posteriormente procedes a subir a un autobús, que como ya había mencionado antes, le debería de quedar poco recorrido... Y ya lo mejor te lo encuentras cuando ves que absolutamente nadie cumple ninguna norma básica de conducción... Desde adelantamientos imposibles hasta recorridos sin fin por el arcén. En ocasiones es divertido, en otras en cambio piensas que vas a morir. Acercándonos al final de este glorioso recorrido, el conductor pregunta que si alguien quiere bajar en el aeropuerto, que por el módico precio de 5 euros te acerca hasta una carretera cerca el aeropuerto. El viaje terminó con última parada en el centro de Tirana ( algo beneficioso para todo el mundo) y no en la estación sur de autobuses (lo que es la east gate)... Que en principio es a dónde iba pero también sin ningún tipo de lógica... En conclusión, la puntuación se debe a nuestra percepción de cómo deben funcionar los servicios de transporte, pero las risas no faltaron.2024-09-28

So he didn't even know if there would be any space left, and if there wasn't I wouldn't be able to get on. But it turned out that there were 3 empty seats and he let me go. But if it had been full I would have been left behind due to poor communication.2025-01-08

The AC on the bus from Tirana to Prishtina was also not working so the journey itself was very unpleasant. For the return journey our tickets were not recognized by the driver at Albani Tours who said we had travelled with a different provider (Arditi) on the way in we had to pay again. We refused and after much discussions and call to Gjirafa we managed to get on the bus. Overall your service was good but your providers (Arditi and Albani Tours) need to provide a better overall service.2025-08-10

  • reviews1★Arditi Tours was terrible. They oversold the seats og we were almost 30 passengers who had to switch buses 3 times, before we finally were on our way. We ended up on a old bus whith no air-conditioning, and the driver drove like an idiot to try and make up for the lost time, risking all our lives several times. When we got to the airport they dropped us off by the highway about 1,5 km away from the airport! Several passangers got angry and asked why they didn't drive all the way to the airport when the ticket we paid for says TO TIRANA AIRPORT, the driver god mad and started yelling to us to get us off the bus. One guy got into a physical altercation because he demanded the driver drop us of at the airport or somewhere safe and not on the heavy trafficked road, he had luggage and was carrying a small baby and didn't want to walk almost 2 km in 35 C what the baby and luggage. The driver pushed him of the bus and yelled at him. All in all a terrible experience. I have travelled all over Asia, East-Afrika and South-America, but never had a more shocking experience than this. Never met less service minded people as the operators at Arditi Tours. And I bet every single person on that same bus would agree.2026-08-08

4 riders reported air-conditioning broken or too weak: 1 said no AC for the first hour, 1 said it dripped water, 2 said it did not work well and the bus was hot. On a line with 42 strong reviews and 26 poor ones, a broken cooling system makes long trips unsafe and pushes passengers to pay for taxis instead.

  • reviews1★reported thisReservation and check-in were super easy, but the bus ride was “interesting,” to say the least. No air conditioning for the first hour, and undisclosed change of bus, and arrival an hour late. It was so unpredictable and uncomfortable that I used a taxi to return from my trip.2024-09-30
  • reviews2★reported thisBus operator seemed very suspicious of gjirafa travel and tried to direct us to another bus even though he was the one taking us to Himara. Once we got on the bus, his colleage tried to double charge us because he didn’t understand what booking online meant. AC was dripping water everywhere on the bus.2026-08-05
  • reviews4★reported this1 heure de retard, bus en mauvais état, la climatisation ne fonctionnait pas bien il faisait trop chaud2026-08-15
  • reviews5★reported thisPërvoja ishte e tmerrshme. Kondicioneri i autobusit nuk funksiononte siç duhej dhe shoferi mori më shumë se 50 telefonata, duke iu përgjigjur të gjithave gjatë kohës që po drejtonte, duke vënë kështu në rrezik pasagjerët. Shoferi gënjeu edhe për kohën totale të udhëtimit nga pika e nisjes deri në destinacion, duke thënë se nga Tirana në Sarandë duheshin 7,5 orë, dhe e njëjta gjë ndodhi edhe gjatë kthimit. Në disa momente kishte pasagjerë në këmbë ose të ulur në dysheme, duke rritur edhe më shumë rrezikun për një aksident. Nuk ia rekomandoj askujt këtë kompani. The experience was terrible. The bus’s air conditioning was not working properly, and the driver received more than 50 phone calls, answering every single one of them while driving and putting the passengers at risk. The driver also lied about the total travel time between the departure and arrival points, with the journey from Tirana to Saranda taking a total of 7.5 hours, and the same happened on the way back. At some points, there were passengers standing or sitting on the floor, which made the risk of an accident even greater. I do not recommend this company to anyone.2026-08-13
  • reviews1★coach never appeared.2025-05-16
  • reviews1★We booked a bus leaving Himare for Saranda at 11am. No bus arrived until 12:10am. There was no contact by Gjirafa or by the Olgeno bus operator so we had no idea if or when the bus might turn up. By the time it finally arrived the bus was totally overcrowded and it was difficult to find luggage space as it was a small bus. Many passengers were standing and the trip was hot and uncomfortable. It was the worst travel experience we have had since stating our travelling in early April.2025-05-21
  • reviews1★We paid for bus tickets up front but the bus never turned up. So we paid for tickets and had to pay 50€ for a taxi to our hotel. We would recommend NOT buying any tickets in advance as you will be left out of pocket. Very disappointed..2025-06-05

  • reviews1★The booking process was fine however the experience was not. 5 persons had to stand for the first 30 minutes until seats became available. On two occasions one of the storage lockers flew open and baggage’s flown out of the bus. Fortunately one of the passengers noticed the bags strewn across the road.2025-09-16

  • reviews1★Worst bus company ever. Departure from Himara to Saranda 11.40am. 10 minutes before I get a text that the bus departure location was changed because of police blockage. To get to the new departure point would have been 40minutes walk outside Himara. No taxi available. Olgeno bus company offert no refund, no alternative busride. 30ppl were left behind in Himara center with pre-paid tickets. This my 3rd busride in Albania & everytime it was a desaster. All bus companies here are fraud.2026-07-05
  • reviews1★The bus didn't arrive u paid 11 euros for the bus not to show up i demand compensation now because of this inconvenience i had to spend the night in Himare and i already booked a night in Saranda so i'm bleeding money because the bus didn't bother to show up at the exact stopping station indicated (4 guys like me were impacted by the situation as well )2026-07-05

Not only us but all the other people who have online ticket are still waiting, and we don't really know how long we have to wait. That's scandal that he wanted us to pay 20€ cash when we already paid 20€ online. Here, everybody hopes that we can travel with the next bus and there will be places. The driver was absolutely scam.2026-08-24

  • reviews3★Do ishte mire te permiresohet kontrolli i biletave kur jane rezervuar online, pra te verifikohen me emer dhe mbiemer sepse duke paguar nje takse shtese online duhet te garantohet ulesja jote ne autobus apo furgon, jo sipas numrit te udhetareve te rastit dhe disa persona iu duhet te rrijne ne kembe pergjate udhetimit 4-5 oraresh, gje qe nuk eshte aspak e drejte. Nuk mund te kalohet kapaciteti i uleseve thjesht per te maksimizuar fitimin e agjencise se transportit. Une kam udhetuar fundjaven e kaluar me Olgeno Travel & Tours dhe ne te dyja udhetimet pati persona qe duhet te qendronin ne kembe sepse nuk kishte me vende te lira. Gjithashtu, pati dhe nje vonese ne udhetimin e kthimit, ne email thuhej qe duhet te vija 30 minuta me heret se orari qe kisha rezervuar por autobusi jo vetem qe nuk ishte arritur akoma por erdhi 15 minuta te tjera me vonese. E mirekuptoj pjesen e trafikut por nese autobusi nuk garantohet qe do te vije 30 minuta me heret nga orari i paracaktuar, atehere dhe klientit nuk mund t'i kerkohet te vije kaq heret dhe te harxhoje kohe kot.2025-07-24

  • reviews1★The ticket information had no actual address to find where the bus picked up. The ticket had a pin that told us where to go on google maps. That pin was 1 km away from where the actual pick up spot was. A local pointed us in the right direction 10 minutes before departure. We sprinted there, and found out that the Kotor station needs to validate the tickets. By the time all that happened the bus had departed. We needed to buy 2 new tickets, so we technically never used this service. Likely will not use again, Flixbus is far superior.2026-08-10

  • reviews2★Buses can be full even with online ticket purchase. Have to still get a paper ticket from desk. Extra charges for printing, station fees and baggage plus what ever else asked. Journey not always accurate, booked a direct bus and one that ran was over an hour longer with extra stops. No clear platforms. This was in Albania and Montenegro so expected a bit of the above before any trip but still a painful experience.2026-08-09

  • reviews4★Die Online-Buchung war einfach. Aber nirgendwo ein Wort davon, dass man das Ticket ausdrucken muss. Dass man das dann vor Ort noch mal per Mail zum Druck schicken muss und dafür dann sogar noch zwei Euro extra zahlen muss finde ich merkwürdig. Komisch finde ich auch, dass ich für die Ablage vom Rucksack im Gepäckraum des Busses auch noch mal einen Euro zahlen musste. Fühlt sich wie Abzocke an - warum wird nicht gleich alles bei der Buchung kommuniziert, so dass man sich drauf einstellen kann? Denn es musste alles bar bezahlt werden - blöd wenn man gerade kein Bargeld in der Tasche hat... Ansonsten war die Fahrt gut, der Bus klimatisiert und der Preis trotzdem angemessen. Danke2026-06-11

3 riders reported the air-conditioning was broken or very weak, making buses too hot during travel. This problem appears on a line with mixed feedback, so we need to check if it is a single bus, a pattern across vehicles, or a seasonal issue before deciding on repairs.

Worst part was I paid so much for a direct bus that should have arrive at 4:30-5am, we ended up arriving at 10:30am which meant I missed my other bus and had to rebook, how can you sell tickets that not even the ones I purchased?2024-09-02
  • reviews1★reported thisThe bus itself was terrible, so packed, newbord crying all the time, AC is not working!, and driver held our passports for 4 hours (without explaining what happening)2025-07-12
  • reviews2★reported thisac was almost half the time on super hot when not even during the night; driving experience like from a rookie driver: dangerous overtaking in oncoming traffic; always breaks after the beginning of a bend - there are passengers in the back, not bricks or potatoes. where 3 hours late in munich - no communication no information in advance - when you‘re there, you‘re there. Over all bad or missing communication by the drivers of what is about to happen. the price is cheap and so was our experience2026-08-15

  • reviews1★reported thisI was traveling from the Theth. I showed driver the ticket from Gjirafa but he told me he does not know the company and asked me to pay him new ticket for bringing me to Schoder. I did so and before the departure someone from Gjirafa called me and said that the bus I booked with them is coming for me . I asked driver money back and h showed me Google translate text :” Do you wanna make love with me?” Eventually he gave me back the money and I get out of this bus. I was waiting there while and then another man came and told me that this very same bus is actually Gjirafa and he had to explain it also to the driver, so I got back in. I do not know if the driver really did not know for which company he is working or he was just trying to make extra money but it was terrible experience .2024-09-06
  • reviews1★reported thisWe got the bus from shkoder to Ulcinj on the 22nd August at 3:10pm. Driver was very rude, a simple question if he was driving to old town in Ulcinj was replied with “no. not my problem”, dropped us at a random stop, not even the Ulcinj bus station that it says on the ticket, definitely choose a different company!2025-08-22

  • reviews1★reported thisIt was a terrible trip. The driver chose to not drive as tickets destination and instead stopped middle of nowhere and said : take taxi to airport (my ticket was booked from Tirana to Airport but he did not want to drive to the destination because I did not give him my number). It was so unprofessional and scary. I could not find taxi and the cost in the end became a lot more than expected. Never again with this company.2026-04-01
  • reviews1★reported thisNone of the information on Gjirafa was correct. The first bus, from Pristina to durres, was not direct, instead I was yelled at and had to change busses. The bus from durres to Prishtina didn't depart on time, was not at adriatik hotel, not direct either, but had a stop in Tirana East, for 2 hours!!! and no toilet on board. No one could give any information. And furthermore, when I contacted Gjirafa staff, no one replied; contact to memi reisen was ' contact Gjirafa'. This is one of the WORST experiences one might have - please note that it says 12:00 - 14:30 when booking that trip, but since this is obviously a mistake, still I was home at 20:00 DESPITE completely free roads.2026-05-31

  • reviews1★Driver never showed up to pick me up2026-05-21
  • reviews1★The given travel time by Giirafa was not correct (2,5 hours). Our journeys start from Durres was 30 minutes late and there was no departure place data (map or precise location), so the departure was really frustrating and unpleasant. We bought the ticket from Durres to Pristina with 0 change, but we were left in T.E.G. to wait for transfer which was too late for our plans. So we lost 40 euros since we were forced to buy new tickets to Pristina for reasons of our original (given by Giirafa) timetable commitments. Memi-travel really cheated us and Giirafa Travel proved to be unreliable in your information given. You should compensate us the lost 40 euros. No answer also from Memi customer service phone.2026-05-22
  • reviews1★I had to go with a different bus and pay an additional 40 € to Arditi Tours because in Albania there was no proper labelling of the bus stop for the bus to Prishtina. It was stated as Adriatik Hotel, but personal of the hotel staff didn't know about such a stop for that bus. We were waiting by the nearby bus stop that had "Memi Reisen" labelling.2026-06-05

Por ndrrimi i shpeshtë i autobusëve,ka qenë i pa kuptimit dhe i pa nevojshme . Këto gjëra e dëmtojnë reputacionin e kompanisë dhe i largojnë klientet(udhëtarët).

  • reviews1★reported thisThis is direct feedback regarding one of the worst travel experiences I have ever had. I expect this to be taken seriously. From the moment I boarded, the experience was unacceptable. Even though I presented a valid ticket purchased through Gjirafa Travel, the staff member handling tickets refused to properly accept it because my name was not on his list. He told me I should have called the company in advance, something that is nowhere mentioned during the ticket purchase process and clearly not a stated requirement. The way he spoke to me was insulting and condescending, asking whether I had ever traveled in Albania before, as if I were ignorant or at fault. This kind of behavior towards a paying customer is completely inappropriate. The situation only got worse during the journey. At one stop, another passenger was allowed to use the toilet, but when I needed to go, the same staff member physically blocked me from exiting the bus. This was humiliating and unacceptable, basic needs should not depend on arbitrary decisions or personal attitude. Finally, the most serious issue: I was left behind in the middle of nowhere. Before departure, a staff member casually told me, “When you’re ready, come to the bus,” which gave no sense of urgency. I reasonably assumed I had a few minutes. Instead, they left without ensuring all passengers were on board, despite another passenger informing them that I was still at the stop. By the time I came outside, the bus was already driving away onto the main road. And this was a few minutes after the staff member said that, very shortly I came outside. This is not just poor service it is negligence. The combination of rude, dismissive behavior and a complete lack of responsibility for passenger safety is deeply concerning. I expect a formal response to this complaint, a clear explanation of how this situation was allowed to happen, and appropriate compensation for the distress and inconvenience caused. I would never recommend it to anyone to travel through Gjirafa Travel or Shpejtim, I don’t know who is responsible for this really. But I will actively warn people from travelling through this company.2026-08-01
  • reviews1★reported thisShoferi dhe konduktori nuk donin te na linin te udhetonim, sepse, sipas tyre, pavaresisht biletes se blere online, ne eshte dashur qe paraprakisht te lajmerohemi tek 'kabina' e biletave te autobuseve ne Shengjin dhe ta 'konfirmojme' udhetimin. Me ne fund, ata na lejuan te hypim ne nje autobus te dyte te vogel (jo ne ate kryesorin). Ne autobus, konduktori na mori edhe nga 3 euro shtese (6 euro per dy udhetaret sa ishim), duke perdorur te njejtin argument, se nuk e kishim bere konfirmimin e udhetimit paraprakisht, prandaj duhej kjo pagese shtese. Gjate asaj kohe, provuam te lidhemi me sherbimin e Gjirafa travel, per t'ia spjeguar situaten, megjithate, duke qene se kishte kaluar ora 17:00, operatori ne telefon na sygjeronte qe duhej te perdornim kanale te tjera te komunikimit. Kjo eshte pervoja jone. Me sa e kemi pare, edhe njerezve te tjere ne autobus u eshte kerkuar te paguajne nga 3 euro shtese (megjithse, nuk e dijme nese ata poashtu kan pasur bileta te blera online apo jo).2026-08-12

We had two buy two taxis for over 10000 lek to get to our hotel and back + the fee for the buss. Terrible experience and service2026-07-12
  • reviews1★A catastrophic journey! According to the schedule, we were only supposed to change buses once, but we ended up changing three times. At the first transfer point, there was no bus or company waiting for us, so we had to travel another 30 minutes to reach a different bus. Then, in the middle of the road, we had to switch buses again just to get to Ferizaj. The organization was extremely poor, and the whole trip was stressful. However, I would like to mention that the staff and the drivers were very friendly, helpful, and did their best to assist us throughout the journey. Despite their efforts, the overall experience was very disappointing due to the poor organization. If it were possible, I wouldn’t give this service even one star.2026-07-23
  • reviews1★I bought tickets for two trips. The first was from Vlorë to Sarandë. We arrived an hour early when it was 36 degrees, but the driver wouldn’t let us board the bus so he could seat people first. If you paid him extra, you could get on and have a seat; otherwise, he wanted us to sit on a folding stool in the aisle. He treated us very rudely. The minibus was packed, with people standing; it was going very slowly, and the trip took 4 hours—not to mention the lack of safety, of course. The second trip was from Saranda to Durres. Everything was going well until we reached the Durres/Tirana turnoff, and he dropped us all off at the highway exit, with nothing around us. Instead of dropping us off at our destination, which was the station.2026-07-23

  • reviews1★We booked two tickets online to go from Girokaster to Sarande. We arrived at 4:35pm and the bus had overbooking for the bus that departed at 5pm. The driver asked two people to stand up their seats and gave them to us. They travelled sitting down in the bus aisle. Two days later, we had book tickets to depart at 8:30 from Sarande to Tirana, we arrived at 8:20 and they asked as to do manual checking and the bus was overbooked again. The drivers told us to take the bus at 9:30. We arrived around 3pm but we should have arrived in Tirana at 12:50.2026-08-13
  • reviews1★Got to the bus stop half an hour early as asked but sadly the traffic was really bad meaning that we missed our bus and had to pay for another cutting our time down for the day out. We were hoping for an easier experience on the return bus however the driver was quite rude and very reluctant to let us onto the bus with our pre booked ticket. It took around 20 minutes of little communication to sort when he finally took a picture of the booking but was not very helpful and we were worried we were going to be left stranded with it being the last bus back of the day. My recommendation would be to not buy tickets in advance online and pay as you get on to avoid any disappointment.2026-08-19

At the gas station, he said we should go off if we plan to go to Durrës. Random strangers from the gas station ordered me a taxi and I had to pay 30€ extra for the taxi to Durrës. It was awful experience. When I buy a ticket to Durrës I want to finish my journey at the bus station or public place. Not in the middle of the highway.2025-09-29

  • reviews2★Booked a coach from Saranda to durres for 10.45am. Despite getting there for 10.15am, there was a long queue to "check-in" despite having online tickets. We were then put on a 11am coach that ended up leaving 11.30am. Super tight seating/limited legroom that was quite uncomfortable. We had a 15min service stop about halfway into the journey which was helpful. However coach driver did not stop in durres and kept on driving towards Tirana. We had to keep asking him to stop while he was on the road leaving durres to avoid the long journey from Tirana back to durres. He eventually let us off the highway which wasn't an ideal place (!) and thankfully our airbnb host had our location to pick us up (our host mentioned that he has had 3 other guests of his face similar experiences with this coach). The coach driver spoke limited English so I'd recommend making sure colleagues at check-in make it explicitly clear to the driver that they need to stop at the locations you've paid to get off at.2026-07-18
  • reviews2★The initial journey was fine. It left on time and included a stop to afford passengers time for a comfort break. However, the journey was ruined when the bus stopped on the main road prior to Durrës. The staff instructed my girlfriend and I to get off here. On the main road with no pavement. It was an extremely precarious situation. We did not know where we were, how far the walk to Durrës was and according to my phone at this time it was 37°C. We had to walk up a slip road with our suitcases avoiding traffic before we reached a pavement. I was left furious as they exposed my girlfriend and I to an unnecessary risk. We paid to go to Durrës, assumably to a bus terminal, not dumped at the side of a motorway. I felt scammed and did not get what I paid for.2026-08-10
  • reviews2★You should make the address for ticket check-in highly visible and not just “check-in at the Trans Butrinti office”, which is a different place from the New bus station from where to get the bus. Driver was rude and cannot communicate in English some simple words2026-08-14
  • reviews2★First of all, the fact that the seat is nit guranteed evethough bought in advance is pretty unfair. The busses are super old and on the point of breaking down, no air-conditioning. The driver just accepted all these people on tge bus on tge way back and they were standing all the way in tge crammed space, making this a dangerous journey for all of us. You know that there is a demand for this route, so consider more busses.2026-08-30

  • reviews3★Buying tickets online is straightforward. However the seat guarantee does not really apply as we still had to queue in the operator's office to get a seat assigned. And we were lucky as those who came late were standing.2025-09-12
  • reviews3★The first bus was 30mins late and it was not explained to us that we had to check in for the bus in Sarande.2025-10-02
  • reviews3★Bus was late to Sarandë. Confusing bus station at Sarande. Buses were clean though2025-10-03
  • reviews3★Hi, I’d like to share some feedback about my recent trip with your bus service. The departure from Saranda was perfectly on time, which I really appreciated. However, my ticket stated that the drop-off point was Durres Station, but in reality the bus stopped before entering Durres. This wasn’t the most convenient location - when I checked the map, I saw it was about 6 km from my hotel. Some other passengers also seemed confused and unsure where exactly we were. I later checked my ticket again and saw that the stop mentioned there matches where we were dropped off, but it would be much more convenient if the bus could go a bit further into Durres, closer to the city centre or the main bus station. Thank you for your attention, and I hope this feedback helps improve the experience for future travelers.2025-10-06
  • reviews3★it were right gud2025-10-19
  • reviews3★Coach was fine but it takes a lot longer than described. 50-60 mins was advised but it took around 1 hour 45 due to dropping people off on the way. Much easier to get a taxi home2026-06-14
  • reviews3★Easy to book, not so easy to show the ticket when the bus drivers have the mindset from someone in 1980’s haha (they were not satisfied with a digital ticket)2026-06-14
  • reviews3★The first trip arrived 40mns late. And the driver was bad humor2026-06-16
  • reviews3★The bus was overbooked, the seat numbers we were given didn't exist, there ended up being one young lady having to sit on a stool in the aisle, another young lady on a step at the front, my friend in the spare driver's seat. The driver then dropped us off on the motorway junction for Durres instead of driving into the bus station 500 meters away so we had to walk up the motorway, it also meant I almost missed my stop as I was sat on the very back seat and couldn't see what was going on. The driver then shouted at me aggressively when I told him I still needed to get off and needed my luggage. Very poor experience.2026-07-01
  • reviews3★From Sarande: It is not clear that you have to go to the ticket office to get a physical ticket or you won’t get a seat number. You literally have to arrive 30 minutes before or your seat could get sold to someone else.2026-07-08
  • reviews3★The experience was poor, but not due to girafa- it was the local bus experience that was poor. The bus was on time leaving but arrived 30 minutes late at the destination. It was full and very little leg room, no charging for phones or toilet. Even small backpacks did not fit overhead. The seat in front of me was broken so reclined the whole time and my knees were bruised by the end. I'm only short, so I've no idea how a tall person would cope. We were dropped on the side of a busy dual carriage way at a petrol station, not a bus stop. No info given for where we were. We had to pay a taxi to get us into the city even though the bus was meant to take us there. The Girafa booking experience was easy, but the partner local bus company they use is poor.2026-07-28

  • reviews3★The points of pick up and drop off were both wrong, Thats huge for me as a solo traveler to know where I’m going to be dropped off, it was very stressful being dropped off on the side of the motorway when my ticket told me the bus station.

  • reviews4★All great. One thing for the bus from Saranda to Gjirokaster, it was operated by Trans Butrinti. You needed to validate your ticket with them in their office and get another ticket to board. No one knew this and the bus conductor was slightly annoyed by it. Our tickets and emails don’t mention. Would be good to include for future travellers2025-07-01
  • reviews4★Ok experience2025-07-09
  • reviews4★The bus was really clean and nice however it was very difficult to know where it departed from. It just said “Sarrande station”, without a street address. At the site there was only a tiny crumpled paper sign that we easily could have missed. Then the bus driver said we were meant to check in for a paper ticket somewhere else, which wasn’t explained to us during the purchase of the ticket.2025-07-11

  • reviews1★reported thisThe driver smoked, talked on the phone, sent text messages and used social media while driving a bus full of passengers on the motorway. His dismissive attitude was unacceptable, as he continued despite being told to stop, putting the lives of passengers at risk — passengers who had paid for a safe journey. Expect delays.

If they say they have WiFi, toilets and power outlets, then they should have those things. Some buses were filthy. One of the drivers was smoking AND texting while driving, which was dangerous and pissed me off as I cannot stand the smoke! Others made random stops along the way and often at lousy cafes/rest stops. I’ve had MUCH better experiences with FLIX busses. Also the price from Tirana to Podgorica was 20 EURO more than the other bus companies. The bus was NOT worth the extra money + we were 45 minutes late into Podgorica.2025-04-28

  • reviews1★reported thisI bought a combined ticket Pristina - Tirana - Podgorica at Gurafa website. The ticket was more expensive than if I bought at the counter and I had to pay 5 euros of fee. I did it because I thought it was safer but I was wrong. The Pristina - Tirana part was ok, bus was there on time but your website should mention in which platform the bus will depart from because people from the bus station did not know and it is difficult to count on random people jn the balkans able to comunicate in english. But the main problem statted when I arrived at Tirana. My ticket said that the cimpany was called Diamant, so I went to the Diamant counter and asked which platform should I take the bus. A very ryde man told me that if I have a ticket I should know and he would not help me. Then by the time I was suposed to depart I went back in the counter and a lady told me to follow her to another company counter. They put me inside a van from another company, then they took me out of the van and made me print another ticket in a third company counter. The bus was already leaving, I had to stop, the bus driver was really mad and charged me 2 euros more for a "last minute ticket". It was really terrible. I felt so unsafe.2025-05-15
  • reviews4★reported thisThe journey was far from good let alone perfect, I booked a ticket from Prishtina at 5am to arrive at Tirana airport at 8.45am with Auloni Tours and of course things happen that might cause delays, however the driver and the person who checks/ sells tickets were not very professional, the driver would take phone calls constantly, the person who checked the tickets would swear when talking to the driver complaining about the fuel prices and their bosses, they would stop so many times, understandably to pick up other customers, but they stopped to fill the bus with fuel, to wash the windows, to have a snack, this should have been done before starting the journey, we were still in Kosova 2 hours into the journey, this wasted so much time and people had planes to catch, then they would stop for a break. A break from what? They took more breaks than actually driving, when we finally arrived at Tirana they didn’t even take us fully to the airport, they stopped in front of a hotel and hurried everyone out because they weren’t allowed to stop there and randomly pointed forward where the airport was meant to be, you then had to walk with luggage through the streets of Tirana instead of being stopped at the airport, this is not made clear when buying the ticket you would think you’re being taken right outside the airport when you book the ticket but you are not. When offering a service that takes you to an airport more things need to be taken into account, how your customer has to check in and how they have to go through security etc, not just take the money for the ticket and not care about anything else. I would never travel with Auloni Tours again, perhaps it’s different with the other bus companies, I’m not sure if Gjirafa travel can speak to these companies to improve them, since you’re selling tickets for them on your website. Tmerr. The eSIM was great though definitely worth it. Auloni tours is awful never book with these people.2026-08-25

2 riders say the driver was rude and treated passengers badly during the journey. Staff also held a passenger's passport for 4 hours without explanation, and communication about delays was poor. We need to train drivers on how to speak to passengers with respect, or we will lose customers to better operators.

  • reviews1★reported thisThis is the worst travelling experience I have ever had. Its such a shame in 2026 things like this still happen. Total lack customer support, poor communication and very wrong timelines. I bought a ticket that said leaving from Prizren at 13:00h, we left from Pristina at 15:00. A minivan took us to Pristina. It was for 10 people but about 30 were in squizing. And on top of that they damn smoke inside. On the bus, the driver treats you like a pig heading to a slaughterhouse. Very very bad communication and at the border crossing they treat you (the driver again) like sheep that have to walk past a fence. I had to stop one of them and tell him he cant talk to people like that. My ticket says we arrive in Frankfurt on May 30th at 12:59h. Its 15:23h and we are still in Munich. The bus stop as they wish, nobody tells you why we are going to be 6 hours delayed. What a shame. In every normal developed country you'd get your money back for such an awful experience full of irresponsible people. SHAME!!!2026-05-30

I either missed the bus I was supposed to be on for the reasons stated above..or, after waitress in Nikos informed me of the location change and I moved to this random spot, another bus picked me up 30 min later.

  • reviews1★reported thisThe experience from Tirana to Kotor was bad. The minibus was not suitable for such a long trip. The minibus was old, and the air conditioning was terrible. I will not be doing business with this company again.2026-07-14
  • reviews1★The online platform was simple and easy. But at Tirana bus terminal, we arrived 2 hours earlier, went in the Albanian bus agency stall, showed the man our online tickets and he was kind, told us to go enjoy the mall and to leave our luggage there. 20 minutes before our journey, we returned, it was busier, we waited on the benches outside. A lady came asking if we were going to Montenegro and I confirmed. The first surprise, there wasn't a bus but a small van. Worse, there was no space for us. When I went in the satll again to ask what happened, the woman that was in there was very rude. Said we didn't let them know we were there. I showed her our tickets, showed her our names that were noted down by the man earlier on a piece of paper in front of her, told her we arrived early for this. She then proceeded to very rudely tell me to sit down. They began to discuss amongst themselves. I could see they were also very rude to another man who went there to buy tickets. In the end, they had to call for a private car to take us to Kotor, Montenegro. Also, the car was shaking in a weird way (I believe it was the alignment of the wheels on the back...), it had no seat belt. And also, we had to pay extra for the bags to go on the boot. Ridiculous. Our tickets had already being charged with fees, what were those then? Service? haha. I feel the joke was on us. Very bad experience overal.2026-06-01

  • reviews1★reported thisMy experience with Gjirafa Travel / Gazmend Turist was extremely disappointing and, frankly, unacceptable. The departure journey from Skopje to Prishtina was very unpleasant. The air conditioning barely worked, making the bus hot, stuffy, and uncomfortable throughout the trip. Despite passengers raising concerns, the driver was rude and unwilling to address the issue. The return journey from Prishtina to Skopje was even worse. We arrived at the station around 5:30 PM, well before the scheduled departure, and presented our valid electronic ticket on our phones. However, the driver refused to let us board, insisting that only a printed ticket would be accepted, despite no such requirement being clearly communicated during the booking process. We were forced to run around the bus station searching for a print shop, causing unnecessary stress and anxiety. After eventually allowing us to board, the driver deliberately made us sit at the very back of the bus despite many other seats being available. Throughout the interaction, his behaviour was rude, disrespectful, and unprofessional. We left feeling that we were treated differently because of our skin colour, which made the experience even more upsetting. No passenger should be subjected to such treatment. Good customer service starts with respect, professionalism, and equal treatment for everyone. I urge Gjirafa Travel to investigate this incident thoroughly and provide me with a formal response explaining what action has been taken against the staff involved. If I do not receive a satisfactory response, I will have no option but to escalate this matter to the relevant consumer protection authorities and share my experience on public review platforms so that other travellers are aware of how we were treated. I sincerely hope the company takes this complaint seriously and ensures that no other passengers have to endure such an unpleasant experience.2026-07-11

  • reviews1★On 14.08.2025 I traveled with Gazmend Turist from Prishtina to Skopje. Unfortunately, the experience was extremely disappointing and unsafe. The bus broke down in the middle of the highway, and all passengers were left waiting for over 2.5 hours at night without any clear information about what was happening. Even more concerning, no safety measures were taken – not even a simple warning triangle to alert other vehicles on the road. This created a dangerous situation for both passengers and other drivers. Basic passenger communication and safety procedures were completely missing. I expected at least timely updates, assistance, or visible concern for the wellbeing of the passengers, but this was not the case. This level of service is unacceptable for an international route. I strongly recommend the company to improve both safety standards and communication with passengers in such situations.2025-08-15

  • reviews1★I took this “bus” from Skopje to Pristina and it was honestly a very disappointing experience. Instead of a proper bus, it was a small, old van, completely overcrowded. There were more passengers than seats, and at some point along the route, additional people got on and had to stand for the rest of the journey. There was essentially no proper luggage space. The van’s trunk was far too small for standard suitcases, so passengers were forced to keep their bags inside with them to make room for larger luggage at the back. This made an already cramped space even worse — there was barely any legroom, and having bags at our feet made the journey extremely uncomfortable. Seats were worn out, the conditions were poor, and the overall experience was far from what you would expect for this type of trip. On top of that, the driver was quite rude and dismissive. Honestly, the only positive was that the journey was just two hours. Overall, this is not a service I would recommend. If you're expecting a comfortable and smooth journey, this is definitely not it.2026-05-05

Even after I told the driver that I had already paid in advance, he just shrugged, made dismissive gestures with his hands, and didn’t even say a word. When I asked for my money back, he simply waved his hands, got into the vehicle, and drove away.2026-07-14
  • reviews1★I paid money just like everyone else so I can sit on the floor of the bus. There were no free sits and the driver told me to sit on the floor of the bus or wait for the other one. At least I got to sit on the floor, the other people who also bought tickets from you didn't get any chance to get on the bus, and some of them bought them since February and planned their trips so this rude driver can destroy it for them. The driver did a lot of driving mistakes where he got all of us into danger and he got into a heated argument on the border.2026-08-07
  • reviews1★First driver was good second one getting off was bad I was very confused and was left 38 minute walk from my hotel I was staying at they just dropped me off at a random gas station and said the city name so I was very confused and overall bad communication2026-08-07
  • reviews1★On our return trip from Pristina to Skopje, my daughter and I traveled with 25 more people on a bus suitable for 23 people (4 people more than the capacity), and 4 people were left on the ground. Anlso, priority was given to people who had a paper ticket, before those who had an online booking. It is unbelievable that you accept more reservations than the actual seats capacity!2026-08-08
  • reviews1★Driver told me it was overbooked ä. That gjirafa didn't put a stop sale. And I had to buy a new ticket!2026-08-11
  • reviews1★Gazmend Turist drivers do not accept tickets purchased online through Girafa Travel. They only accept tickets purchased at the bus station and allow these passengers to board first. Passengers with online tickets through Girafa Travel will be left behind at the bus station.2026-08-14
  • reviews1★I have scammed. I paid a ticket with your company. Arrived 2 hours in advance at the station. When the bus came, they let other people go in then said the bus is full. I could not take the bus. I want refund. It is outrageous of you. I had to buy an other tikcet, more expensive of course.2026-08-15
  • reviews1★Se potessi mettere 0 stelle lo farei. Purtroppo la mia esperienza non è stata affatto positiva. Ho comprato i biglietti online e non sono garantiti, il personale fa salire coloro che hanno acquistato il biglietto cartaceo e se rimane posto ti fa salire. Ho prenotato per Pristina il 14/08/2026, la mattina nessuna informazione e l'autobus che dovevamo prendere non si è presentato e ho dovuto prendere quello dell' ora successiva senza che nessuno ha dato informazioni utili e quindi siamo arrivati a destinazione con quasi 2 ore di ritardo. Il vero problema è stato il viaggio di ritorno dove nonostante avessimo il biglietto ci è stato negato di salire. I posti disponibili erano meno della metà del necessario. Dopo discussioni hanno fatto viaggiare alcuni di noi in condizioni pessime, in totale assenza di procedure di sicurezza viaggiando su un banchetto di plastica nel corridoio, senza aria condizionata e in totale illegalità. Altri sono dovuti rimanere a terra nonostante avessero acquistato il biglietto. È stata una vera follia, senza nessuna indicazione, lasciando delle persone con regolare biglietto in un paese straniero. Mi sarei aspettato minimo il rimborso del biglietto e le scuse con una alternativa per tornare e invece il personale se ne è fregato. Ho trovato tutto questo totalmente assurdo, una situazione in cui non mi sono mai trovato nonostante io viaggi ogni mese anche per lavoro. Sconsiglio vivamente a tutti questa pessima esperienza.2026-08-15

  • reviews2★Hello, the online shopping experience was very good, however, I thought it was terrible that the driver prevented those who bought online from getting on the bus, we had to wait the last minutes to board and get the worst seats, I didn't understand why we had to wait to get inside and I went through a stressful situation during the holidays that I wouldn't like.

  • reviews2★Journey from Skopje to Pristina was perfect. Everyone has it's own place and it went smooth. Problem occurred when we were traveling back to Skopje from Pristina. We had tickets bought online with qr code , everything was paid in advance but the driver was letting to the bus only passengers with physical paper ticket from station and there were too many passenger to time we had bought our tickets. So situation was that passenger with paper ticket can go to bus and others who bought ticket online need stay because it's no enough seats. Fortunately some passenger translated to the driver from English to Macedonian and driver let us travel but we sitter on plastic chair in the aisle between other passenger , and some passengers were standing the whole journey to Skopje . So we traveled like 30 people in bus for 20 people (approximately). Your company is joke , you need to learn to sell only that much ticket how many places are on the real bus . This is not driver's mistake, he only drives and needs to deal with that situations daily as we heard . Your company selling much more tickets than seats in bus so you need to improve and also give driver som app that he can scan qr code and let passengers to the bus with online ticket also not only with paper tickets and then he needs to deals with situation what to do with the people left. We are grateful about driver because in the end he allow us to travel but as I said it was very uncomfortable to sit in the aisle basically between others like animals. Next time I would buy only paper tickets at the station if you don't know how to work with technologies.2026-07-30

  • reviews3★Overall experience was positive, although it is not clear why there should be a difference between those who buy the ticket online and those who buy it at the desk. In Skopje We had to wait for another bus as the first one was full of passengers who bought their ticket at the desk and arrived after us: being very cold outside this was not pleasant. In Pristina we made sure to arrive early as chances to not find a seat are quite high. Drivers could be more road wise as they tend to fidget quite a lot on cell phones, papers or being distracted talking to passengers.2026-01-03

Then when I arrived they said the bus was full and they could not grant a seat for me, even though I had booked a seat for that bus2026-05-11
  • reviews3★Purchasing with girafa itself was good. But the bus driver of the bus time I booked the ticket for wouldn’t take online tickets because there wasn’t enough space for everyone who bought tickets so my friend and I had to wait for the next bus. If I had known that they turn people away with online tickets in those situations I would have just bought at the station. It also would have been helpful to know the bus of that specific line uses a smaller bus so there isn’t a lot of space and plan accordingly.2026-05-30

We booked online tickets for Sunday 14/06/2026 at 8:00, but when were at the station, they told us that there was NO BUS at 8:00 on Sundays, only at 10:10a.m. 2 hours spent in the neighborhood, nothing in the quarter... Please please please... Update your travel schedule!! No bus.. No tickets!!! Please!!!2026-06-27
  • reviews3★Mini bus without room for personal packaging. There was a 3 person overbooking on the way out of Skopje, so everybody was over each other.

The bus driver was very rude as well and talking to someone else on the bus and when we got our tickets he kept bitching. So I wouldn’t recommend montoya travel.2026-08-12

  • reviews5★I was backpack-travelling Europe when I was in Tirana, searching for a bus ticket to Skopje and further to Sofia. It was either Google Maps or Rome to Rio that led me to the Gjirafa website. After a few minutes it was clear that I could book Tirana to Skopje (with connecting in Pristina) at Gjirafa. The cherry on the pie was an eSIM card for 12 Balkan countries for a good price - 100% fit for my needs! After 15 minutes I had purchased two bus tickets plus the eSIM card. I was happy and could relaxedly continue with my sightseeing in Tirana.2025-08-24

  • reviews1★Dear Sir or Madam, I tried to prepare well for my trip from Munich to Himare, but I learned otherwise at Tinara Airport: planning and preparation in the usual sense seems to be a waste of time and money here. It frustrated me greatly, and still frustrates me, that I still don't understand what and where the South North Terminal is. Likewise, I still don't understand why a bus company's journey from the airport to Himare doesn't start at the South North Terminal, as advertised (which apparently doesn't even exist), but rather at a different, very distant location, which I can only reach by using another bus company, which I found thanks to some kind people. I thought I had arrived half an hour early, right on time at 12:30, so I could take the bus to Himare at 1 p.m. (the journey from the airport to Himare was listed as taking four hours). However, it took another hour before we stopped at the designated rest area, where we were informed that the bus we had booked with Riviera Tours had already left. In hindsight, this made sense, but I was also perplexed and very surprised. We were also told that we would need to buy another ticket, as we would now be traveling with a different bus company. Unfortunately, we couldn't withdraw any cash from the ATMs at the airport, which had already confused and worried us. We ended up traveling with the other company. The journey took at least five and a half hours. During the trip, I kept wondering where I could get cash and how, or even if, this would affect our planned return trip on August 31st. It probably wouldn't work, because as the journey dragged on and on, I realized I had once again booked a return ticket in advance for nothing. We will never be able to make our flight back to Munich on August 31st at 12 pm if we take the bus from Himare at 5 am, since the journey back to the layover takes at least 5-6 hours, where the other bus company then takes us to the airport in about an hour. In total, I have paid over €64 for nothing for a bus journey that takes about 3 hours longer than expected and which we had based our flight booking on. The fact is, I now have to leave a day earlier and therefore have to pay for a night's accommodation in Himare for nothing, and I now have to find accommodation in Tirana so that I can make my flight on August 31st on time. All told, I now have approximately €150 in additional costs due to the missing information. I have not yet received a reply to the two emails I sent to gjirafa. Please explain to me what advantages this approach offers all parties involved, in case I haven't yet grasped the underlying rationale. Thank you for your understanding. Sylvia Daub2026-08-19
  • reviews2★The bus from Tirana to Himare was supposed to take 2 hours and 40 minutes, but instead it took 4 hours and 30 minutes. I understand that buses can’t always arrive exactly on time, but that is a massive difference and it ruined our plans for the evening. Also, the air conditioning was almost non-existent, which was a shame given that it was 32 degrees outside. It felt like I was boiling during those hours. I didn’t give a one-star rating only because I appreciated how easy it was to buy the bus tickets online, and in the end, I did reach my final destination safely.2025-08-04

  • reviews4★reported thisGood: everything (in my experience) has left on time, staff are helpful To be improved: busses are incredibly hot with poor AC, Gjirafa sells trips that may not be feasible due to extremely short layover time (e.g., 50 min to get between north-south terminal and east terminal in Tiranë)2025-08-10
  • reviews1★Seats in these mini buses are small. There is no leg room. It made for a very uncomfortable ride. My husband I arrived 45 minutes early to get single seats because people told us it was first-come-first-serve. However, the driver told us the seats are reserved (there are no seat numbers on our tickets).2025-04-30

2 riders reported that the driver refused to accept their pre-booked tickets and was unhelpful, making them worry about being left stranded. On a line where 40 of 65 reviews rate it 4–5 stars, this rude behavior toward online ticket holders damages trust in advance booking and pushes customers to pay cash instead.

  • reviews1★reported thisGot to the bus stop half an hour early as asked but sadly the traffic was really bad meaning that we missed our bus and had to pay for another cutting our time down for the day out. We were hoping for an easier experience on the return bus however the driver was quite rude and very reluctant to let us onto the bus with our pre booked ticket. It took around 20 minutes of little communication to sort when he finally took a picture of the booking but was not very helpful and we were worried we were going to be left stranded with it being the last bus back of the day. My recommendation would be to not buy tickets in advance online and pay as you get on to avoid any disappointment.2026-08-19
  • reviews2★reported thisThe driver was very rude and rude to people who had already purchased a ticket online...never again with this rude driver, I felt sorry for the people who already had a ticket and yet he needed to prove something to the strangers who pay him2025-09-09
  • reviews1★Sold me a ticket for a bus that didn't exist so instead of a whole day sightseeing, I only had two hours before I had to go back and I had to buy another ticket. I am still waiting to see if they will refund me. Best to book direct rather than through Gjirafa2025-06-29

  • reviews1★We booked two tickets online to go from Girokaster to Sarande. We arrived at 4:35pm and the bus had overbooking for the bus that departed at 5pm. The driver asked two people to stand up their seats and gave them to us. They travelled sitting down in the bus aisle. Two days later, we had book tickets to depart at 8:30 from Sarande to Tirana, we arrived at 8:20 and they asked as to do manual checking and the bus was overbooked again. The drivers told us to take the bus at 9:30. We arrived around 3pm but we should have arrived in Tirana at 12:50.2026-08-13

  • reviews2★website is good but albania buses are not reliable or on time. they stop alot and dont tell you whats going on. mini bus did not have AC2025-09-27
  • reviews2★First of all, the fact that the seat is nit guranteed evethough bought in advance is pretty unfair. The busses are super old and on the point of breaking down, no air-conditioning. The driver just accepted all these people on tge bus on tge way back and they were standing all the way in tge crammed space, making this a dangerous journey for all of us. You know that there is a demand for this route, so consider more busses.2026-08-30

You needed to validate your ticket with them in their office and get another ticket to board. No one knew this and the bus conductor was slightly annoyed by it. Our tickets and emails don’t mention.

  • reviews1★How can I get refund fot a cancelled bus?2026-05-29
  • reviews1★Hi, we booked bus tickets from Budva to Kotor for 09:00 today for 6 individuals. Firstly, the bus was over 35 minutes late to the bus station. Then we discovered that there was only 1 free seat in the entire bus. This resulted in us, and many others having to stand in a packed bus for the duration of the journey. There were also many people with tickets for this bus who was left standing on the bus station due to the lack of both standing and sitting space. I am writing now as I stand in the bus squished between seats and people. The air conditioning is not enough to compensate for the body heat from the many overbooked people. Overbooking is not okay. It has resulted in a major safety risk in case of a traffic accident and standing for 45 minuted in a packed and hot bus is not what was advertised when we bought the ticket. We at the minimum expect to get compensated forthe tickets for this very unplesant experience travelling with the bus company booked through your site. Regards, Steinar Hamre2026-08-03
  • reviews1★Besides the fact that the ticket is advertised without a transaction fee, which you can not go around by choosing a different payment method (meaning it should be just included in the price right away). Once arrived to the airport I was asked to pay additional 2€ for “check in” to enter the bus station and another 1€ for the cabin suit-case, the second only to be paid in cash. What’s the logic here? If I have a ticket, but can’t access the bus station, how am I to use the ticket?2026-08-05

  • reviews3★Bus was 1/2 hour late into Budva which doesn't start the vibes of all. We know about Kotor roadworks. Not having assigned seats is a real problem as everyone barges, nudges to get a seat. Bus inside was not well maintained- broken seat,drop down trays were dirty - we like to use for reading etc. When bus is running late you'd think the stops would be cut down on time stopped -but no !!!!2025-10-31
  • reviews3★We bought 9 tickets online but we had to pay 2 euro per person at bus station, bus driver had problem with counting to 9 when I gave him our tickets and he asked „where are the rest of tickets”, during the journey I asked „Is there possibility to leave the bus earlier, near the airport?” The employee said yes. Unfortunately when we were close the airport, he came to us and said that we have to pay extra 5 euro per person if we want to leave earlier, so we went to Podgorica and came back to the airport by taxi what was cheaper than pay him 5 euro per person.2026-06-16

  • reviews2★reported thisI’m giving 2 out of 5 stars. The extra star is for the fact that you were responsive by email. However, I received no help on site at all. There was no agency or staff present at the Tirana bus station, and nobody there knew anything about the destination or could point us toward the bus. No one even recognized my ticket when I showed it. My friends and I searched for over an hour and never actually saw the bus. The only communication I received from your company came two minutes before departure, telling me where to go — which was far too late to be of any use. This lack of on-site support and information made for a very stressful and disorganized experience. The Google Maps point sent by email was not the correct location and I obviously missed my bus and there is obviously no refund.2026-08-16

When I went to Podgorica bus terminal at 17.30, they said that the bus left at 17.00. When I ask why? They said they did the bus schedule about 10 days ago. I was not informed about this. Also, when I look at the bus schedule again for tomorrow, the bus time appears to be 18.00. I request that this grievance be resolved as soon as possible.2024-10-13

We were told at the last minute that we had to travel all the way to Pristina instead. From there, the bus departed much, much later than planned. This caused huge delays and stress for everyone traveling. The whole experience was a complete disaster – misleading information, no proper communication, and no apology from the company.2025-08-09

I asked driver money back and h showed me Google translate text :” Do you wanna make love with me?” Eventually he gave me back the money and I get out of this bus. I was waiting there while and then another man came and told me that this very same bus is actually Gjirafa and he had to explain it also to the driver, so I got back in. I do not know if the driver really did not know for which company he is working or he was just trying to make extra money but it was terrible experience .2024-09-06

  • reviews1★reported thisThis is by far the worst experience of my life. Highly unprofessional and tending towards fraudulent. I paid €66 for a ticket to take me from Pristina to Athens on April 14. The bud never showed up at Pristina Airport at the designated time. No information whatsoever about cancellation, delay or refund. Upon calling them out, they apologized and tried to make alternative arrangements. But the damage had been done. I missed my Athens to Bangkok flight. I had to buy a new ticket. I incurred other expenses and I am expecting a refund of all my expenses and ready to enter a legal battle if I am not fully reimbursed.2025-04-17
  • reviews1★reported thisThe bus from Durres to Tirana did not arrive. I was not notified about the cancellation and had to travel to Tirana by taxi to catch the continuing service to Prishtina.2026-04-22
  • reviews1★reported thisDriver never showed up to pick me up2026-05-21
  • reviews1★The given travel time by Giirafa was not correct (2,5 hours). Our journeys start from Durres was 30 minutes late and there was no departure place data (map or precise location), so the departure was really frustrating and unpleasant. We bought the ticket from Durres to Pristina with 0 change, but we were left in T.E.G. to wait for transfer which was too late for our plans. So we lost 40 euros since we were forced to buy new tickets to Pristina for reasons of our original (given by Giirafa) timetable commitments. Memi-travel really cheated us and Giirafa Travel proved to be unreliable in your information given. You should compensate us the lost 40 euros. No answer also from Memi customer service phone.2026-05-22
  • reviews1★None of the information on Gjirafa was correct. The first bus, from Pristina to durres, was not direct, instead I was yelled at and had to change busses. The bus from durres to Prishtina didn't depart on time, was not at adriatik hotel, not direct either, but had a stop in Tirana East, for 2 hours!!! and no toilet on board. No one could give any information. And furthermore, when I contacted Gjirafa staff, no one replied; contact to memi reisen was ' contact Gjirafa'. This is one of the WORST experiences one might have - please note that it says 12:00 - 14:30 when booking that trip, but since this is obviously a mistake, still I was home at 20:00 DESPITE completely free roads.2026-05-31
  • reviews1★I had to go with a different bus and pay an additional 40 € to Arditi Tours because in Albania there was no proper labelling of the bus stop for the bus to Prishtina. It was stated as Adriatik Hotel, but personal of the hotel staff didn't know about such a stop for that bus. We were waiting by the nearby bus stop that had "Memi Reisen" labelling.2026-06-05

  • reviews1★reported thisThe bus I booked was not running. I paid an extra fee and chose the option to be notified by text if there were any changes to the schedule, but the message I received was nonsense: "The bus is running as scheduled, so get there 30 minutes before departure." I waited for an hour and a half for the bus that never came. During this time, I contacted your company by email and WhatsApp, but received no response. I had no choice but to return to the hotel and explain the situation to the hotel owner, who contacted the bus company and told me that "the bus was canceled because there was only one passenger." I am furious with both your company and the bus company. It's the worst. I want my money back.2026-05-05

  • reviews2★Upon arrival to the belgrade bus station, I had to buy an additional platform ticket for 600 RSD. This was not made clear ahead of time, and I almost missed my bus because of this confusion. On the way back from Belgrade to Pristina, the bus was an hour and twenty minutes late. There was no notice sent out to let us know that the bus was going to be late. There are also no assigned seats, and many people on the bus who bought tickets on the bus during the trip. That means that it would be possible for someone who did buy a ticket in advance to not have an actual seat on the bus they're supposed to ride on. Also, the bus from Belgrade to Pristina did not have a bathroom that was available despite there being a toilet on the bus. I asked and the driver told me that it didn't work.

  • reviews1★very bad2025-12-30
  • reviews1★I took this “bus” from Skopje to Pristina and it was honestly a very disappointing experience. Instead of a proper bus, it was a small, old van, completely overcrowded. There were more passengers than seats, and at some point along the route, additional people got on and had to stand for the rest of the journey. There was essentially no proper luggage space. The van’s trunk was far too small for standard suitcases, so passengers were forced to keep their bags inside with them to make room for larger luggage at the back. This made an already cramped space even worse — there was barely any legroom, and having bags at our feet made the journey extremely uncomfortable. Seats were worn out, the conditions were poor, and the overall experience was far from what you would expect for this type of trip. On top of that, the driver was quite rude and dismissive. Honestly, the only positive was that the journey was just two hours. Overall, this is not a service I would recommend. If you're expecting a comfortable and smooth journey, this is definitely not it.2026-05-05
  • reviews1★It was a fraud. The buses on the purchased tickets didn't exist and I had to buy it again in the bus station. You could transfer my money back.2026-06-02
  • reviews1★It is easy to book the tickets and there is no trouble with payment either, we booked the tickets from Sofia to Skopje. However the information on the departure location in Sofia is completely wrong. The point on the map shows a random Shell gas station outside of city centre and the bus does not actually take this route. The customer service did not provide any substantial answer regarding the departure location in Sofia. We went to Sofia central bus station and found out for ourselves wether the bus leaves from central station or would we really have to go to the Shell gas station marked on the map. That is how we found out that the bus does not even go near that gas station and that it actually departs form the central bus station in Sofia.2026-06-25

But the bus driver of the bus time I booked the ticket for wouldn’t take online tickets because there wasn’t enough space for everyone who bought tickets so my friend and I had to wait for the next bus. If I had known that they turn people away with online tickets in those situations I would have just bought at the station. It also would have been helpful to know the bus of that specific line uses a smaller bus so there isn’t a lot of space and plan accordingly.2026-05-30
  • reviews3★Mini bus without room for personal packaging. There was a 3 person overbooking on the way out of Skopje, so everybody was over each other. At the entrance of Kosovo, three other persons went in and had to stand. One of those felt dizzy and some other paying passenger had to give her his seat. Driving smoothly and on time2026-06-27

  • reviews5★All the process went smoothly. However, it's worth mentioning that for example the bus station in Skopje charges extra fee for tickets issued online. In practice, it means I was turned away from boarding the bus, had to get back to a ticketing office, pay a fee, and return with the receipt. Just a small detail.2026-06-25

Also, I thought it was direct from the bus station in Tirana to Prizren station but we spent at least 30 minutes at the airport. It would have been nice to know that was part of the trip. We didn’t go to Prizren station, we were dropped off at a nearby location on the side of the road in a parking lot. That would have been nice to know also. I will use again but I’ll have different expectations and hopefully this type of info can be communicated up front in the future.2026-07-04

  • reviews1★reported thisReservation and check-in were super easy, but the bus ride was “interesting,” to say the least. No air conditioning for the first hour, and undisclosed change of bus, and arrival an hour late. It was so unpredictable and uncomfortable that I used a taxi to return from my trip.2024-09-30

  • reviews1★Vendet e rezervuara nuk ishin mbajtur nga shoferi2024-09-07
  • reviews1★We decided not to take the bus we had booked in Albania after our hotel manager kindly called the bus company to confirm whether it would arrive at the destination on time. We were told it would not - apparently, buses in Albania often stop for extended coffee breaks, leading to delays of over an hour in reaching the final destination. It’s unclear how bus companies are allowed to operate like this without accountability. We had to take an expensive taxi instead.2025-06-11
  • reviews1★The bus didn’t have seats for everyone even for people with tickets that was ordered many months in advance. Prepare to stand up for up to 5 hours. The information on the ticket is incorrect. The trip from Tirana to Dhermi and return took 5 hours instead of 2.5 hours as stated in the ticket. If you have another transfer option I would highly recommend to avoid using this bus service.2025-06-12

  • reviews3★Do ishte mire te permiresohet kontrolli i biletave kur jane rezervuar online, pra te verifikohen me emer dhe mbiemer sepse duke paguar nje takse shtese online duhet te garantohet ulesja jote ne autobus apo furgon, jo sipas numrit te udhetareve te rastit dhe disa persona iu duhet te rrijne ne kembe pergjate udhetimit 4-5 oraresh, gje qe nuk eshte aspak e drejte. Nuk mund te kalohet kapaciteti i uleseve thjesht per te maksimizuar fitimin e agjencise se transportit. Une kam udhetuar fundjaven e kaluar me Olgeno Travel & Tours dhe ne te dyja udhetimet pati persona qe duhet te qendronin ne kembe sepse nuk kishte me vende te lira. Gjithashtu, pati dhe nje vonese ne udhetimin e kthimit, ne email thuhej qe duhet te vija 30 minuta me heret se orari qe kisha rezervuar por autobusi jo vetem qe nuk ishte arritur akoma por erdhi 15 minuta te tjera me vonese. E mirekuptoj pjesen e trafikut por nese autobusi nuk garantohet qe do te vije 30 minuta me heret nga orari i paracaktuar, atehere dhe klientit nuk mund t'i kerkohet te vije kaq heret dhe te harxhoje kohe kot.2025-07-24

  • reviews1★We took the 2:00 pm bus from Berat Station to Gjirokastër today (16th of August 2025) and it was by far the most dangerous journey we have ever experienced. The driver’s behaviour was reckless and alarming - he overtook vehicles on blind bends, used his mobile phone while driving, took his hands off the wheel on winding roads. He narrowly missed hitting several pedestrians and nearly collided with multiple other vehicles while beeping at them almost non stop. We were at the front of the bus so we witnessed all of this. When we expressed our concerns, he responded with physical aggression towards us, which was extremely frightening. We are lucky to be alive after his driving. I honestly cannot stress to you enough how unsafe he was. He should not have a license let alone be driving a bus full of people. Take him off the roads for your future passengers and their wellbeing and safety!2025-08-16

Después de preguntar por el parking dimos con un minibus que partiría hacia allí. Eran las 10:20. El conductor desconocía la compañía que ponía en nuestro billete. Nos indicaron que el siguiente. Cuando vino el siguiente nos dijeron que era el que se había ido. Solución vuelta a pagar. Parece que no ven con buenos ojos la forma de reservar vis web. Si trave.gjirafa es una empresa sería espero que sea reembolsado el importe de los billetes que fueron imposibles de canjear, usar.2025-09-11
  • reviews1★We booked two seats from Tirana to Berat for the 10.20am bus. When we got to the bus station and found that there was no 10.20 bus. Instead there was a full 10am bus. The driver squashed me in the front and my poor husband sat in the middle of the aisle on a portable cheap plastic stool for two hours of the trip. He got a seat when someone got off the bus 10 minutes short of reaching Berat. Otherwise he was on a free standing plastic stool with no backrest while the bus travelled on the bumpy road. We thought that by booking our seat online we would have two bus seats in a bus that was not overcrowded and enjoy the trip side by side. This in no way happened.2025-09-16

Shoferi nuk bëri asgjë për të më ndihmuar. Ishte një përvojë e tmerrshme dhe nuk dua të hip kurrë më aty. Për më tepër, si në vajtje ashtu edhe në kthim, kondicioneri nuk funksiononte fare dhe bënte shumë nxehtë. Ishte një mundim i vërtetë.2026-08-12

At Tirana bus station nobody knew anything and we had to take another bus to Berat. Fortunately the bus drivers communicated with each other so that we didn‘t have to pay the second bus, but we had a lot of dicussions until everything was ok.2025-07-17

  • reviews4★Using the website platform was really easy and it makes travelling in a foreign country so much easier knowing that transport can be booked in advance. It was a little tricky trying to find the actual bus we were to take as the South and North Station of Tirana must have had at least a hundred buses and maybe ten of them had 'Berat' signs on them. However, when we asked the local staff members at the entrance, they were able to point us in the general direction of the bus. It would be helpful if there was a way that GjirafaTravel could make it clear which bus we are taking to minimise stress and help create an easier "check in" experience. HOWEVER... we will be using GjirafaTravel for the remainder of our time in Albania!2025-08-14

  • reviews1★reported thisYour pick up times in Dhermi were not accurate. U waited for am hour for the bus to Sarande that was scheduled on your site to arrive at 2pm2025-09-10
  • reviews1★reported thisThe ticket was fake and the bus did not exist2026-08-05
  • reviews1★Porque no nos dejaban entrar al bus con los tickets on line al principio nos ponían muchas pegas luego despues de insistir nos acabaron dejando2025-04-20
  • reviews1★Found out on the bus that the ticket price online was double what people were paying on the bus. Could have just shown up and paid there2025-05-26
  • reviews1★Very unorganized, cause they sold more tickets than the seats.2025-06-17
  • reviews1★The trip from Vlore to Sarande was not good at all. First, the scheduled arrival was supposed to be 14h30, but we only arrived at 15h30, not because of the traffic, but because the driver decided to stop 1h only after our departure from Vlora at a cafe on our way, and also kept stopping several times on the way to pick-up and drop-off people. Because of this delay, I nearly could have missed a tour that I’ve booked in Sarande. Moreover, the bus in itself was not good with the smell of the engine smoke all the way. So definitely not a good trip unfortunately, and sorry for this feedback but it’s the truth.2025-06-26
  • reviews1★Really upset, I expect reimbursement. The information about the travel is totally incorrect : none of the many stops is displayed on the ticket. Including the other ones in Vlora that could have arranged us. The time of arrival is totally wrong (18h30 instead of 16h30). That made our decision to take this trip irrelevant, since we miss all buses in saranda. Please contact us to reimburse us2025-07-09
  • reviews1★I paid 33euros for 2 passengers online for a trip from Vlore station to Saranda which would have cost just 20 euros if we had paid at the bus station. First off, it took a while to find your representative at Vlore station. We took off at 2.30 but the bus was moved very slowly and practically picked /drop off passengers at almost every stop/city. Meanwhile on your website you states that the trip was a direct 2 hours trip to Sarande. To make matters worse, the vehicle developed a fault on our way and we waited for almost an hour for them to get it fixed. This is the worst bus service I’ve ever experienced. A trip that was supposed to take 2 hours took us over 5 hours. It’s bad enough that we paid almost double of what we should have paid had we not booked on your website.2025-07-14
  • reviews1★There was no connection between the service we booked in the app and what we got when we arrived at the bus station. We certainly took whichever bus was scheduled for the time slot we bought but it was a small 12-13 seat van, which stopped in every possible spot along the way to pickup/drop off passengers, drove insanely unsafely, speeding in curvy roads while raining and making what was initially sold as a 2 hour direct (inland/highway) trip into a 3.5 hours coastal nerve wrecking night ride. The worst bus ride ever.2025-12-31
  • reviews1★Very bad service2026-04-10
  • reviews1★The trip was very disappointing. At first, the driver was driving extremely slowly for a long time and was always on his phone, sometimes only around 30 km/h. Later, the complete opposite happened: he drove down the winding mountain roads far too fast and recklessly, which felt very unsafe and uncomfortable. On top of that, the journey took about one and a half hours longer than originally scheduled. Overall, it was not a pleasant experience at all. Next time, I will definitely choose a different bus company. I didnt felt Safe!!!2026-05-19
  • reviews1★The bus never arrived at the location given and no one was able to help us.2026-06-15
  • reviews1★I didn’t like the experience at all. The indications for the meet point were not clear and the contact number provided on the website didn’t help us at all. Also I think it’s important to provide a number to whom clients can write on Whatsapp, as many tourist only have internet. The bus didn’t have any places where to sit, so my friends and I stayed on our feet for most of the travel. I would never recommend this website.2026-06-27
  • reviews1★Be more specific about how many stops bus will going to have it’s said on the ticket it’s a direct bus from vlore to Sarande and it’s stopped like 5 times and the whole journey took like 6 hours and the bus was moving like a turtle very slow2026-07-15
  • reviews1★We had very bad experience. On the website we booked the bus says that the journey from Vlore to Saranda takes 3 hours and it says the journey is direct, the bus operator was Transbus. However,the bus took five and half hour to arrive, because the driver over loaded passengers, he stopped many places to pick up passengers, many people had to stand on the bus for the whole journey, it was a very hot day the bus had no air condition, everyone was suffering with the heat and stuffy bus. The bus is not same with over loading passsengers as it was difficult to go up the hill it went slowly like walking. Because it was so hot the driver had to open the bus door during the journey to let some fresh air comes in. The bus was old and dirty. l do not recommend this journey.2026-08-17
  • reviews1★The bus is NOT direct, he stops for random people and at main stops. The driver was not polite to me, travelling alone he watched me struggle to put the bags in the undercarriage then proceeded to shout in his language that it’s been put in wrong, I later watched him help multiple people with their luggage. He also snatched my personal bag off me to put in the under carriage and another passenger beckoned him to give it back as he understood my English when I said “I have medicine in that bag” DO BOT BOOK WITH TRANSBUS. Also the journey was 5 and a half hours from vlore to saranda.2026-08-18
  • reviews2★The ride from Vlore to Sarande took 5 hours instead of 3 because we made a lot of stops on the way.2025-08-04
  • reviews3★We had a 3 hours trip to go to Saranda, it taked 5:30 hours.2025-08-02
  • reviews3★The drivers shouldn’t be smoking, or eating, or on the phone on the ride. It’s a collective transport and bumpy road so, it’s better to be focused on the road, and not doing anything else. The bus should get a reform, because the seats are falling apart and old. The big buses are comfortable but the smallest ones ( like autobus from Dhermi to Sarande that we tooked) is very small and dangerous. The doors don’t close completely and we didn’t felt save. Anyway. It’s good price for the journey of 6 hours.2025-09-27
  • reviews3★The bus was on time but it took 4 hours instead for 3 hours.(not much trafic) I bought my ticket on line but those who hadn't ticket were already onboard and took all the seats.2026-07-11
  • reviews3★It took tooooo long, 5 hours from Saranda to Vlora and even the way back!! The minibus and the bus were too old and we prayed for our lives to reach to the destination safe and sound!!! The drivers were very helpful and kind but the whole vehicles should be changed.2026-08-15
  • reviews4★I am writing to express my extreme dissatisfaction with the experience we had on our journey from Vlora to Saranda with your company. Firstly, the driver was extremely aggressive towards us and attempted to overcharge us a significant amount for our bicycles. We had to negotiate for a long time just to get on the bus, and the staff did not assist us with loading or unloading the bikes, which we had to disassemble ourselves. Additionally, the trip was supposed to take about two hours, but it ended up taking over four hours with more than twenty stops along the way. The driver also smoked in front of us and drove in a very dangerous manner. Furthermore, the driver arbitrarily set the price, which was unacceptable. Given these issues, I am requesting an immediate refund for the service provided. I look forward to your prompt response. Sincerely,2025-08-07

  • reviews1★reported thisHello, I purchased 2 tickets from Ohrid to Skopje for Sunday June 14th only to find out there was no bus leaving Ohrid at 16:30 from the Ohrid Station. When we arrived at the central bus station we were told that there was no buses from the company Gazmend Turist leaving from that bus station for a few months and that there are always issues with this company. My friend and I were then forced to purchase new tickets for us to be able to get back to Skopje from Ohrid with a different company. The link on the ticket leads us to the central bus station in Ohrid and we were there more than 30 minutes before the departure. I kindly request a refund for the 2 tickets that were purchased and could not be used because the company Gazmend Turist did not provide any service.2026-06-18

  • reviews1★Terrible. Staff at station won’t talk to you if you booked online. 3 hour trip took 4 hours as drivers had been driving for 15 hours apparently and were tired so stopped 5 times.2025-09-01
  • reviews1★Sold a ticket to a bus route that did not exist. The route was seasonal, but this wasn’t possible to learn of through Gjirafa. Gjirafa sold a ticket for the route after the season was over, and thus we thought we had tickets for a ride that never existed.2025-09-03
  • reviews1★My bus never came so I lost all my money, the company never gave me a refund. The location of the bus they sent me in my email was wrong or the time of the bus they gave me was wrong.

  • reviews1★The departure location on the ticket did not match the actual departure location. I found the right location by asking people. But the bus was already full, and driver said there was no room for us and that we should talk to the company. The company arranged another bus for us going to another city. We took another bus from that city and arrived in Ohrid. It caused us to lose two hours. On the return journey, the location on the ticket and the location point were not the same again. Thanks to driver mr. Zülfikar we found the right location.2026-04-11
  • reviews1★I was informed at the Bus Station at Lake Ohrid that Gazmend Turista had gone out of Business and my Bus would not turn up. I had to buy another ticket for a much later Bus.2026-04-26

  • reviews1★still waiting for my refund2026-05-06
  • reviews1★Signposting of the bus pick up location was non existent. The bus wan hour late on the way to Ohrid, we were sat on the bus and received no updates or information. On the way back, the bus driver left 3 people in Ohrid so we had to turn around half hour after we left. Then the bus driver was speeding and got fined by police, we were nearly an hour late arriving back to Skopje and the bus was over booked and people were sat on the floor. So appalling and illegal practices and a terrible experience all around. I also had an issue at the booking stage and couldn’t get a hold of anyone at Gjirafa by phone or WhatsApp. Would not recommend!!!2026-05-11
  • reviews1★Horrible, teníamos que salir a las 9, salimos a las 10, había un conductor y dos mini buses, se fue con un minibus y nos dejó encerrados en el otro hasta las 10 que llegó el otro conductor, a la vuelta nos fuimos 10 minutos antes de la hora acordada y tuvo que volver porque se había dejado gente en Ohrid, había más gente que asientos, en los dos asientos de delante 3 personas, una sentada en el pasillo, nos paró la policía por exceso de velocidad y le pusieron una multa, un despropósito todo.2026-05-11
  • reviews1★On my way to Ohrid, the driver smoked all the way and dropped everyone at the wrong spot. On my way back, the van never showed up, and the staff at the bus station is not aware of this journey.2026-05-15
  • reviews1★The bus stop location was incorrect for Ohrid (central bus station location was provided, but we were dropped off before a roundabout from Old Bazaar). No support was given when asked for the correct bus stop for the return journey, given the ticket still had central bus station as the location. Got in touch with the operator and they also weren't clear, so took a chance and went back to the drop off point and luckily the coach was there2026-05-24

  • reviews1★I arrived at Ohrid bus station to be told by staff that Gjirafe is no longer operating from there. So you took my money and didn't provide a service. Awful!2026-06-16
  • reviews1★I had a valid ticket for the route Ohrid–Skopje on 21 June 2026 at 16:30 Me and other 6 person arrived at the station in advance, but the scheduled bus did not arrive and no alternative transportation was provided. As a result, I was forced to purchase a new ticket with another operator in order to reach Skopje. I want a full refund of my unused ticket. Reimbursement of the additional transportation costs incurred due to the non-performance of the service. I look forward to your prompt response.2026-06-22
  • reviews1★It is easy to book the tickets and there is no trouble with payment either, we booked the tickets from Sofia to Skopje. However the information on the departure location in Sofia is completely wrong. The point on the map shows a random Shell gas station outside of city centre and the bus does not actually take this route. The customer service did not provide any substantial answer regarding the departure location in Sofia. We went to Sofia central bus station and found out for ourselves wether the bus leaves from central station or would we really have to go to the Shell gas station marked on the map. That is how we found out that the bus does not even go near that gas station and that it actually departs form the central bus station in Sofia.2026-06-25

Drivers turned away passengers with online tickets, saying the bus was full or they had no payment record, forcing people to pay cash again or find other transport. This breaks the basic promise of online booking on a line where 20 of 36 recent reviews gave 1-2 stars, mostly citing driver problems and poor conditions.

I think he was very tired and I was able to see his eyes closing several times when he was driving from the rear mirror in front of him. We had to scream wake up several times. I spend the whole way watching his face….. I was very scared. The driver was nice but it was dangerous for all the passengers. Thank you taking time for my review. Best regards.2025-06-18

  • reviews1★I had booked a ticket for two people from Shkoder to Durres today. However, the bus driver told me he could not accept it as he never got paid from your company - so I had to pay him in cash. To me he seemed credible, however obviously I can not say if he was trying to rip me off or if what he said is true. But whatever the story is behind this, it is either that your company is a scam or that you are working together with other bus companies who are scam. Either way obviously it influences the credibility of this page to buy bus tickets online which I certainly will never use again and I will try to keep other people from using it for their own good.2025-11-15

3Lines to flag “no air-conditioning” on the site all time · 11 to flag · 3 to consider

A rider told before booking does not sit in a hot bus expecting otherwise, and does not come back to write the review — so this is the one problem on the tab the company can fix without an operator's cooperation. A bus with no air-conditioning and a bus whose air-conditioning broke are not the same problem here. The first is a fact about the vehicle that we can publish; the second is the operator's maintenance, and all we can do is pass it on. So they are separated, and the counts are never pooled — a line does not earn a public label out of reports saying a unit exists. Tier 1 needs 3+ riders saying there is none, across at least 3 different calendar months. The months matter more than the count: three complaints in one August is a heatwave, three across three months is a fleet.

Lines you cannot book are listed last in every table below and marked not reservable. This flag is a label published on the booking page, so a line with no bookable ticket price has no page to carry one — the evidence is kept and shown, but it is not a label anyone can put up today.

Consider flagging — consistently broken, not absent

These lines have air-conditioning, and riders keep reporting that it does not work: 4+ riders across 4+ months, a higher bar than tier 1 because inferring “there is none” from “it keeps failing” is our step, not the rider's. A bus whose AC never works is in practice a bus with no AC, so these are worth a look — but they are a recommendation to check, not a label to publish.

How we got here · data lineage

The three sections use the AI in deliberately different ways. In section 1 it picks from a fixed problem list and writes each card's summary paragraph — but code does every count, so nothing it writes is counted, ranked or turned into a finding. Section 1 draws on TWO tables, and both can raise a finding: a written review, and the tag a rider taps after a trip. Their counts are labelled separately everywhere and never added together, because a review and a tap are not the same unit — the single exception is each card's reports-vs-views box, where the two are pooled against the number of people who looked at that route. That view count is the one figure on this tab that does not come from the booking database: it is counted in Bisko, the site's own analytics, over the last 30 days, and it sizes a finding rather than raising one. This run: 2493 usable feedback row(s), 60 finding(s) raised from them, 28 problem(s) recovered from text no tag named.

The feedback rows are scored on a corpus of 147 typed message(s) against the rider's own tag, which riders pick loosely — so they carry intervals rather than point estimates, and nothing in CI gates them. service: too few tagged rows to read at all, shown as — rather than as a number.

Micro pools every category decision, so the common categories carry it. Counting each category equally — over only those the review text can support — macro-F1 is 0.59.

Category row: bus reviews only; 4,019 scored reviews · held-out test slice of 806 reviews. Sentiment row: the negative class over the whole scored corpus.

306 review(s) the classifier declined to answer are excluded from these figures and counted here rather than hidden — an opt-out flatters any score that buries it.

Not measured: service_issues.extract_one (issue enums); schedule_mismatch posted/actual time extraction; schedule_mismatch's actual-departure-time extraction from feedback text; the REVIEW free-text screens (a review carries no Reasons tag to score against); every prose/summary pass. Those passes have no ground truth in this repo, so no accuracy figure on this page describes them.

1What riders report all 48 finding(s)

Here the evidence is the rider, not the ticket. An AI pass reads every review and every message typed into a feedback form, and decides which of them describe a price problem; the counting, the ranking and the bar below are code. These rider sections lead the tab because our own ticket data cannot see a fee paid in cash at a station counter — that money never touches dbo.Tickets, so section 4 is blind to it by construction. Extra charges taken at the station are not here: they have section 2 to themselves, because the fix for one is a notice we publish rather than a call to the operator.

A line needs 2 report(s) to appear here on its own. Reports on a line already listed in section 4 are attached to that row instead, with no bar at all — the ticket comparison already proved that defect, so a single report is worth having. Findings are ordered by the size of the lever we hold, not by how many riders reported them: a fee we can disclose on the booking page ourselves outranks a bigger pile we can only pass to an operator. Where both sources report one line, each count is shown separately and never added together — a review and a tapped tag are different kinds of evidence.

reviews The model read 158 reviews out of 4,323 row(s); 188 were admitted only because it read the text.

userfeedbacks The model read 6 feedback messages out of 316 row(s); 4 were admitted only because it read the text.

No reason tag asserts a station fee, and reviews carry no price tag at all, so reading the text is the only route to that defect.

reviews1★ Besides the fact that the ticket is advertised without a transaction fee, which you can not go around by choosing a different payment method (meaning it should be just included in the price right away). Once arrived to the airport I was asked to pay additional 2€ for “check in” to enter the bus station and another 1€ for the cabin suit-case, the second only to be paid in cash. What’s the logic here? If I have a ticket, but can’t access the bus station, how am I to use the ticket?

reviews1★ Found out on the bus that the ticket price online was double what people were paying on the bus. Could have just shown up and paid there
reviews1★ I paid 33euros for 2 passengers online for a trip from Vlore station to Saranda which would have cost just 20 euros if we had paid at the bus station. First off, it took a while to find your representative at Vlore station. We took off at 2.30 but the bus was moved very slowly and practically picked /drop off passengers at almost every stop/city. Meanwhile on your website you states that the trip was a direct 2 hours trip to Sarande. To make matters worse, the vehicle developed a fault on our way and we waited for almost an hour for them to get it fixed. This is the worst bus service I’ve ever

reviews1★ Horrible experience!! I reached out to you via WhatsApp with no response. Your website declares guaranteed seat when I bought on your platform, yet the bus was way overbooked. I had to stand the entire 5 hour drive. There was probably 10-15 people standing. Some standing down in the back door stoop while the driver drove with the door open. Very unsafe, very uncomfortable and definitely not what I paid for. Me and 1 of my children had to stand for a long bus ride through the mountains. And then no response from you when I reached out!! Yeah, never will I use your platform again. I am currently
Sentence written by the AI, over the rider reports below.

152 further line(s) carry a single report each, below the 2-report bar, so none is a finding above. They are counted here rather than dropped — several of them sit at the same stations as the rows above, which is what the station table is for.

2Station fees all 10 finding(s)

A rider paid online, then had to hand over more money at a counter before boarding. This is the one defect on this tab we can fix alone and for free: dbo.TripsNotices already carries the wording — “A small additional fee may be charged at the station for this trip.” — so publishing it needs no operator's agreement. The deliverable is a list to tag on the website, which is the same bar the service tab's no-AC list is held to. One ticket per station, because one station is one decision covering every line out of it.

Riders who were warned are not evidence of an undisclosed fee, so they are dropped outright rather than counted and explained away: a report goes when the exact trip it was written about already carries the notice (falling back to the line where the report names no trip). 21 report(s) over 10 line(s) went that way this run. A station then needs 2 report(s) for a ticket; stations with one are in the fold at the end. Only the station-fee defect is here — a luggage charge or a double billing stays in section 1, because neither is fixed by this notice.

Whether a fee can be published for a whole station was measured, not assumed. It does follow the station rather than the operator — no operator here charges across its own whole network — but most stations carrying complaints carry them about one operator's own desk. So every ticket states which case it is and what that means: the check is how many other lines out of the same station riders reviewed 3+ times and never mentioned a fee. Where that is 0, everything anybody wrote about is charging. Ordered by how widely we can act, not by how many riders complained.

The notice is live on 128 trip(s) across 102 line(s) today. It is matched on its text — there is no flag or enum for it — so if the wording is edited in the back office this count drops and the suppression above quietly stops working. It also says what the site shows now, never what a rider saw when they booked.

4 station(s) where the evidence supports tagging the whole terminal: Stacioni Shkup, Stacioni Kotor, Stacioni Ohër, Stacioni Beograd. 4 where it is one operator's own desk and needs an operator conversation instead: Stacioni Sarandë, Stacioni Shkodër, Stacioni i Classic Company, Terminali Jugor dhe Verior.

reviews5★ Shkup - Prishtinë The online purchase itself was fine - no issues. What was not included in the process or the PDF ticket / email was the need to pay an additional charge at the station. I should've known as it's pretty common in this part of Europe. I would add a warning to your information and ticket PDF that the fee may be required at the stations. In Skopje it was 50 den or 1eu. The journey was fine as well - no delays, but gjirafa is not the bus operator(s). At least I do not believe they are
reviews4★ Shkup - Prishtinë Easy to book
reviews5★ Shkup - Prishtinë One thing not noted on the ticket: you need to buy an additional ticket at Skopje station (MKD 50) to get access to the departure bays. Would be good if they noted this on the confirmation.
reviews2★ Shkup - Prishtinë So hot in the buses. Really need to fix the ACs. Why do I have to pay again at the Skopje station. Almost missed my bus because of it. Makes no sense.
reviews3★ Shkup - Prishtinë I had to pay the administration fee to gjirafaTravel and then in the bus station I has to pay administration fees again. So at the end, i had to pay several taxes for the same bus. That is not detailed in any plce on the website. On the bus, the driver switched on and off the air conditioner every now and again. The temperature was very warm during all the trip
reviews4★ Shkup - Prishtinë Good search function and interface, but have to pay extra to get a ticket at the station
reviews5★ Shkup - Prishtinë It was a pleasant journey but you could include the tax in the ticket I had to pay separately and queue for a long while.
reviews5★ Shkup - Prishtinë Journey completed ok. It was a cramped minibus and at first it wasn’t clear that the driver would let some of us on. He was waiting for others with a different booking first. There was also an additional bus station tax to pay.
reviews1★ Shkup - Prishtinë The bus was very bad. Seats was broken. Door was opened while all path. In the station they charged a fee for bus. My girlfrien still sick because the bus was verry cold. E-sim is good working.
reviews4★ Shkup - Prishtinë We were not informed about the necessity to change the online ticket into a paper ticket and the additional costs. The bus was quiet old and the door didn't really close.
reviews2★ Shkup - Prishtinë The online booking with Gjiraga was very easy. The bus journeys would have been better if the drivers had not used their mobile phones when driving. The ticketing checks were different for every journey, which was confusing. And at Skopje there was an extra ticket required for the ‘bus station services’ which was not described at the time of booking.
reviews3★ Shkup - Prishtinë We missed our first bus because the people at the bus station wouldn’t let us in because we had to pay the bau station tax and instead of letting the bus know they wouldn’t let us in and then when we got there 2 minutes later it was gone. and then we couldn’t get on the bus 45 minutes later so we had to buy a new ticket. The bus driver was very rude as well and talking to someone else on the bus and when we got our tickets he kept bitching. So I wouldn’t recommend montoya travel.
reviews3★ Shkup - Prishtinë -in Skopje you have to pay an extra ticket to access the bus platform -I asked twice in Pristina if all was good with my ticket, and they said yes. Then when I arrived they said the bus was full and they could not grant a seat for me, even though I had booked a seat for that bus
reviews3★ Shkup - Prishtinë We were not aware that there was a bus station fee to pay so luckily had the money. Also had not expected the driver to be smoking and the smoke to come back into the bus.
reviews5★ Shkup - Prishtinë All the process went smoothly. However, it's worth mentioning that for example the bus station in Skopje charges extra fee for tickets issued online. In practice, it means I was turned away from boarding the bus, had to get back to a ticketing office, pay a fee, and return with the receipt. Just a small detail.
reviews1★ Shkup - Prishtinë Bus was 1 hour late in Podgorica Unexpected bus change to a smaller sprinter on the way in Albania workout prior info High air conditioning No English speaking staff (or any foreign language) Additional fee in Skopje
reviews1★ Shkup - Prishtinë No point in booking online if you have to queue at the station to pay an additional booking fee. The suggested bus from Skopje to Pristina was an uncomfortable minivan with an unprofessional driver.
reviews5★ Shkup - Prishtinë The site for buy ticket is perfect. We receive all information. But when we arrive at the bus station Skopje we need to pay for having the paper ticket.... It's not written than we need to pay more at this station !!
reviews5★ Shkup - Prizren Everything good except the payment to do in the station for the bus fee ...really? We should pay online in the ticket
reviews5★ Shkup - Prizren The voyage went well, but there was no information that you need to pay an entrance fee for the Skopje central bus station.
reviews3★ Shkup - Ohër No seats assigned, so the driver let us get on the bus the last ones and placed where there were seats available Nobody told us that tickets purchased online are required to pay a fee un the station (each person)
reviews2★ Shkup - Ohër No transparency. Or your vendor (bus provider) charges extra at the station for ticket purchased online, which is not stated during purchase online.

reviews2★ Shkup - Ohër Hello, I booked Podgorica-Pristina for Sunday, Sep 14,9:00 but now I get a confirmation for Saturday 13th. I tried once more to book 14th, but it didn't work, after confirming my booking, I was only asked to buy an eSim card, but nothinh happened, no confirmation for 14th! Please tell me quickly if there is a bus on Sunday or not. That was my bad experience. I never got an answer to my request, I had to leave Podgorica one day earlier and moreover I had to pay 3€ at the bus station, because they needed a printed copy of my ticket.
reviews5★ Shkup - Ohër Still need to pay the tax at the counter.
reviews5★ Shkup - Ohër you tell me which platform to waiting the bus coming and should cover platform fee 0.5 euro. Your price has already been more than buying a ticket at offline selling window
reviews2★ Shkup - Ohër I was asked to pay more fees at the station. I would have appreciated a heads-up if that’s just protocol. And also, the bus terminated at a different location, which resulted in 28 min walk (with heavy suitcases) instead of 12 min.
userfeedbacksShkup - Tetovë I was at the ticket counter at the Skopje bus station, and the woman working there first told me the ticket cost 840 MKD (€14). Then I asked the travel.gjirafa.com, and he told me the price was only 120 MKD (€2). Even after that, she still charged me 200 MKD.

reviews1★ Kotor - Budva Chegando à rodoviária tivemos que pagar outra taxa para poder embarcar no ônibus de 1,50€ cada, ao chegar no ônibus o motorista nos fez pagar mais dois euros por cada mochila (bagagem de mão) para podermos embarcar, ressalvo que quando íamos entrando no ônibus ele puxou meu esposo pela alça da mochila para fora do mesmo nos obrigando a pagar esta taxa. Tanto o motorista como os funcionários da rodoviária foram extremamente grosseiros e muito agrecivos. Outro ponto a viagem era direta e tivemos uma paragem antes da nossa em uma rodoviária próxima ao aeroporto de Kotor.

reviews1★ Tiranë - Janinë Diamant travel tried to scam me and threatened me. They tried to make me pay 10 euros more for check in. They had a printed paper saying that all travelers have to pay 5 euros. When I asked them they said it's for montenegro. I told them I would call the police and later they refused me the entrance to the bus as I should wait for the police I called. Please do something because they threaten people, take more money than they should (i doubt 5 euros for check in are needed). I will send the same information to any Albanian official needed.
reviews1★ Tiranë - Kotor The worst experience I have had in a long time. The bus took hours longer, super poorly organized. The travel office at the bus station in Tirana had the most obnoxious and rude staff that threatened not to let us on the bus simply because we asked about why we had to pay an extra fee "for the check in" in cash (and wanted to know where this was in writing). would never book again and will definitely inform everyone I know never to travel with this company. I would seriously want to demand a refund for this absurdly bad service.

reviews1★ Tiranë - Kotor The journey was the worst and absolutely pathetic. First, they charged me £6 for the terminal and luggage fees. Then, instead of providing a proper bus, they provided a minibus without AC. The minibus broke down midway, and because of that, we arrived 5 hours late. Overall, it was a terrible experience. Don’t book bus ALB trans

At the station, it was revealed that a ticket needed to be printed. This is not stated on the ticket, which caused additional stress. Printing one ticket costs 1 euro. It is expensive and seems like a rip-off, but there is no alternative. I am still not sure that you really need to print the ticket and that this is not a business scheme. I bought a ticket to Petrovac, but the driver said that the bus does not stop there and goes only to Budva and asked: "Will you go?". Of course I
reviews1★ Sarandë - Tiranë I had the worst experience with this company. When my friend and I arrived at the bus, the driver took both of our suitcases and loaded them onto the bus – we saw this with our own eyes. The bus itself was in terrible condition – honestly, it was falling apart. During the drive, the driver was texting and talking on the phone, which is completely unacceptable. And without exaggerating, we were driving at 30 km/h for over an hour on the highway. On top of that, the bus randomly stopped twice in the middle of the road for no reason. With about an hour left of the trip, the driver came to the bac

Printed Gjirafa tickets I should have exchanged to the local ticket in a small cabin at the station (which is an extra step in a process). The tickets told us to come 30 minutes before departure time, so we spent it in the heat, hiding in a shadow of the bus (there is no roof whatsoever). The vehicle floor was sticky, air conditioners almost didn’t work, so 4 hours of medium range suffering and we were at Saranda. Safely though, thanks to the driver.

Below, every row is one bus line where riders were charged a price the catalog does not list. Riders pay is what dbo.Tickets really took over the last 90 days; Site lists is the live dbo.Pricing row for the same departure, leg and age group. Return purchases are excluded, so a round-trip fare never shows up here as an overcharge — and so is any sale made before its listed price was last changed, since a catalog row that moved after the sale cannot judge it. No AI reads any of this — it is one comparison.

4Riders paid the wrong amount 0 paid more · 1 paid less

Riders paid than the site lists.

Correct the Pricing row, then decide whether the difference goes back to them.

No lines in this direction this run. Every ticket that would have landed here was sold before its own listed price changed, so it proves nothing about the catalog — the live mistakes are in section 3.

Nobody was overcharged, so this is not a refund question — it is money the listed price says we should have taken.

Separately, 449 ticket(s) (703 rider(s)) on 29 line(s) were sold where the catalog lists no price at all for that departure, leg and age group. There is nothing to compare against, so none of them is a finding above — but the gap is real and worth a look at the catalog.

How we got here · data lineage

FIVE TABLES FEED THIS TAB, and the AI touches only one route through them. Sections 1 and 2 are the rider's own words: an AI pass reads every review and every typed feedback message and decides which describe a price we did not advertise, and reads the extra amount out of the text where the rider names one. They lead the tab because they are the only part that can see a fee handed over in cash at a station counter — that money never enters dbo.Tickets. Everything after the model's yes/no is code: the counting, the 2-report bar, the ranking by which lever we hold, and each card's fix. Section 2 adds one step of its own, and it is a fourth table rather than a filter: every station-fee report is checked against the live dbo.TripsNotices warning for the trip the rider actually booked, and a rider who was already warned is dropped from the corpus — the defect there is an undisclosed fee, so a warned rider is not evidence of it. That notice has no flag or enum and is matched on its text alone. Section 3 needs no rider and no ticket at all: it reads the live dbo.Pricing catalog on its own and flags rows that are wrong on their own face — a bookable seat listed at zero, one fare listed at two prices at once, a return dearer than two singles, a price above the plausible ceiling. Pure SQL, no AI, and no sale has to exist for the row to be wrong. Section 4 is a comparison and nothing else, with no AI at any point: for every ticket sold in the last 90 days, what the rider was actually charged against every live dbo.Pricing row for that same trip, leg and age group. A ticket whose price matches none of them was sold at a price the site does not list. Three guards keep that honest, all in SQL: a ticket matching a listed round-trip price is a return purchase and never counted (without it, 137 of 235 apparent overcharges were return sales, measured 2026-08-10); Tickets.Price is per seat, so seat counts are never divided out; and a ticket is set aside when its own catalog row was created or last changed after the sale, because dbo.Pricing keeps no effective dates, so today's price cannot judge a charge made before it existed. That third guard is the one to weigh most: it decides whether a row is an overcharge or simply an old price, and on the run it landed it took section 4 from 67 lines to 1. The comparison only sees what Gjirafa itself charged. dbo.Tickets is our own sales ledger: all 84,815 tickets in the window carry a UserAccountId and 84,795 are web self-service. A fee a rider pays in cash at a station counter is in none of those rows, so the comparison below cannot raise it. That is what the rider-report findings are for — they read what riders actually wrote, which is the only evidence of an off-platform charge we have. Refunded euros are not on this tab at alldbo.Refunds has no reason column, so a refund euro beside a price finding would be correlation, not evidence.

Measured accuracy of the AI steps

Partly measured. Of the typed feedback messages whose rider tagged the complaint price_mismatch, this tab's screen caught 18% (11 message(s)). That figure describes the FEEDBACK half of the screen only.

The half it does not describe is the bigger half. Reviews carry roughly nine in ten of this tab's station-fee evidence, and a review has no rider-picked tag to score against — so the review screen, and the one-sentence summary on every card, remain unmeasured. Do not read the number above as covering them.

Check a card instead: every rider report is quoted in full behind each card's button, with the source it came from, and sections 3, 4 and 5 rest on no AI whatsoever — a line appearing in both halves of this tab is a defect two independent sources found. What is measured

3Bookable, but only with an inconvenient transfer one fix opens every route listed · all 1 case(s)

The ticket exists and the journey still does not work — the change is either between two stations on opposite sides of a city or onto a connecting bus that is not sold online, and one fix opens every route listed on the card.

Arriving and departing services use different stations in Tirana, 3.5–4.3 km apart. Every route below is bookable end-to-end, but only by crossing the city mid-journey — the ticket exists and the trip still does not work.

These routes are on sale and they do operate — there is just almost no choice of when, so each card names the times that exist, which is what the operator has to answer for.

How we got here · data lineage

Pure code — no AI, on either input. A leg is bookable only when an operator runs it with an online-reservable, actually-operating trip — the same rule as the site’s reservable filter, verified against live searches. Directions are merged per pair; through-routes broken by one leg are grouped onto that leg’s card. “Shown nothing” counts riders who got an empty results page in the last 31 days, and rider tags are counted over all time — never divided by searches or by each other (no two of these inputs share a denominator or a window). Rider feedback is supporting evidence only: it is attached to findings, it does not create them.

The feedback rows are scored on a corpus of 147 typed message(s) against the rider's own tag, which riders pick loosely — so they carry intervals rather than point estimates, and nothing in CI gates them. service: too few tagged rows to read at all, shown as — rather than as a number.

Micro pools every category decision, so the common categories carry it. Counting each category equally — over only those the review text can support — macro-F1 is 0.59.

Category row: bus reviews only; 4,019 scored reviews · held-out test slice of 806 reviews. Sentiment row: the negative class over the whole scored corpus.

306 review(s) the classifier declined to answer are excluded from these figures and counted here rather than hidden — an opt-out flatters any score that buries it.

Not measured: service_issues.extract_one (issue enums); schedule_mismatch posted/actual time extraction; schedule_mismatch's actual-departure-time extraction from feedback text; the REVIEW free-text screens (a review carries no Reasons tag to score against); every prose/summary pass. Those passes have no ground truth in this repo, so no accuracy figure on this page describes them.

·How accurately does the AI read a review?

The detectors put an AI in front of rider text in nine places. Two of them can be scored against something a human wrote down, and this is that measurement in full — the same numbers the console scorecard and the CI gate use, computed once.

This scores five AI passes. It is not a score for the tool. Two corpora are measured here and they are not comparable: the classifier reading a REVIEW's own text against the human category tag, and the free-text screens reading a typed FEEDBACK message against the tag the rider picked themselves. Nothing else in the pipeline is measured, and no ground truth for the rest exists in this repo.

Measured here

  • classify_one categories
  • classify_one sentiment
  • schedule_mismatch feedback screen (vs the rider's Reasons tag)
  • service_issues feedback screen (vs the rider's Reasons tag)
  • price_mismatch feedback screen (vs the rider's Reasons tag)

Not measured anywhere

  • service_issues.extract_one (issue enums)
  • schedule_mismatch posted/actual time extraction
  • schedule_mismatch's actual-departure-time extraction from feedback text
  • the REVIEW free-text screens (a review carries no Reasons tag to score against)
  • every prose/summary pass

So no figure on this tab describes a schedule finding or a service card. Those rest on the extractors in the right-hand column, which carry no measured number at all — which is why the accuracy figures on the other tabs sit beside the one claim each of them actually qualifies, and nowhere else.

0.59measurable-subset macro-F1 — scored over only the categories the recall ceiling says are recoverable from review text at all. Section 3 names them.

1What this run covered

Review types classified this run: bus (type 1).

eSIM reviews were not classified — that is the default. The four eSIM-only categories report NOT MEASURED below, never 0.00, and the macro averages cover the bus categories only, so this run's macro is not comparable with a remembered 12-category one. --with-esim scores all twelve.

2Reading the review's categories

How often the model recovers the problem a rider described, judged against the human ImprovementPossibilities tag. The held-out test slice is the honest number: it is never used to tune the prompt or the category definitions. Dev sits beside it as an overfit check, and the full corpus is the bigger sample for rare categories.

Recall is the metric this tool optimises for: catching the issue matters more than being tidy about it, because a manager verifies the top items anyway.

3What the review text allows at all

Not every human tag is recoverable from the comment text — plenty of reviews carry a tag the words never support. This is the share that is, sampled and judged by a second model, and it is what separates a model that missed something from a label nothing could have found.

28% [95% CI 23–35%] of human tags, across all categories, are recoverable from the text (n=200 sampled pairs)

That caps recall, not F1. At a recall ceiling C with perfect precision, F1 reaches 2C/(1+C) — so at a 56% ceiling an F1 of 0.66 is not a contradiction. Compare the recall column below with the ceiling column, never the F1 one; F1 max is what the ceiling actually permits F1 to reach.

CategoryF1F1 maxRecallRecall ceiling [95% CI]n

~ User interface0.280.0022%0% [0–56%]3

Measurable-subset macro-F1: 0.59, over the 4 category(ies) whose ceiling is both reliably sampled and high enough to score against — Journey experience, Travel Information, Customer service, Staff behavior. The plain macro above is dragged down by labels the text does not support.

~ — recall above the ceiling's point estimate but inside its interval: Check-out process, Payment method, Search functionality, Staff behavior, Travel Information, User interface. Two things allow that, and neither is a broken number. The ceiling is an estimate from a small sample while recall is measured on every tag; and a model that applies a common category liberally recovers tags the text never supported. The tell is that category's precision.

4Reading the review's sentiment

Satisfactory or Unsatisfactory, judged against the star rating. This is the one pass with ground truth on every single review, and it is the gate the service detector's candidate set is built from — so what it bounds is which reviews were read, not what was found in them.

SliceAccuracyMacro F1

Full corpus85%0.85
Class (full corpus)PrecisionRecallF1Reviews
Satisfactory99%76%0.862,356
Unsatisfactory74%99%0.851,663

The Unsatisfactory row is the one the service tab quotes: its recall is the share of genuinely negative reviews the detector ever gets to see.

5Adjudicated sentiment

590 rows where the rating and the classifier disagreed were re-judged blind; the judge sided with the classifier on 506 of them. Those are the hidden complaints — a good review text that is really a complaint — which the raw scoreboard above scores as classifier errors.

Labelled adjudicated, never actual: it is a blind model estimate with no human sign-off, shown so the delta against the raw scoreboard is visible. The raw one is never altered or dropped.

Class (adjudicated)PrecisionRecallF1Reviews
Satisfactory100%96%0.981,872
Unsatisfactory96%100%0.982,147

Judge: claude-sonnet-4-6 — a stronger tier than the classifier it is judging, because a judge no better than the thing on trial adds nothing.

6Reading a rider's typed feedback

A different corpus and a different vocabulary from everything above: 147 typed feedback message(s) scored against the reason tag the rider picked themselves, not against a curator's category. Never average these figures with the ones above.

Nothing here is gated by CI. At this corpus size a regression ratchet would fail pull requests on sampling noise, so eval_gate still watches the review metrics only. Any rate resting on fewer than 10 rows is shown as — with its row count, because the honest answer on that many rows is that there is not one yet.

3,067 feedback row(s) in the same frames carry no message at all and no screen ever reads them. They are outside this measurement entirely — not counted as misses.

26% of the tags riders picked are actually supported by the message they typed [95% CI 16–40%, n=49 pairs]

That is the ceiling on RECALL below. Riders pick bus_was_late for what their own text describes as a wrong timetable, so where this is low a poor recall is measuring the tag, not the screen.

MeasureValue95% intervalRows
Recall vs the tag18%5–48%11
Precision vs the tag------

No precision figure, and this is structural rather than missing data: the largest defect this screen looks for is a fee handed over in cash at a station counter, and there is no feedback tag for it at all — the one price tag says only that a price was wrong. Counting a caught station fee as a false positive would measure the vocabulary's blind spot, not the model. The adjudicated board below supplies it instead.

147 message(s) sent, 147 answered, 6 flagged, 41 scoreable. Dropped and NOT scored: 0 unanswered (a dropped batch is not a 'no'), 0 with no tag, 106 tagged only thumbs/other.

Adjudicated (never actual): a stronger model re-read the 11 disputed message(s) blind — no tag, no screen verdict — and sided with the screen against the rider's tag on 10 of them. On that board recall is -- and precision --.

service_issues feedback screen

Question scored: does this message describe one of the six service problems? · tags counted as YES: bus_did_not_arrive

MeasureValue95% intervalRows
Recall vs the tag--6–55%9
Precision vs the tag------

No precision figure, and this is structural rather than missing data: the screen looks for six enums and the feedback vocabulary has exactly one tag that maps to any of them (bus_did_not_arrive -> DEPARTED_EARLY_OR_NOSHOW). A rider describing a broken air-conditioner, an overbooked seat or a rejected e-ticket had no tag to pick, so a precision figure here would score the tag vocabulary rather than the screen. The adjudicated board below supplies it instead.

147 message(s) sent, 146 answered, 30 flagged, 40 scoreable. Dropped and NOT scored: 1 unanswered (a dropped batch is not a 'no'), 0 with no tag, 106 tagged only thumbs/other.

Adjudicated (never actual): a stronger model re-read the 14 disputed message(s) blind — no tag, no screen verdict — and sided with the screen against the rider's tag on 9 of them. On that board recall is 67% and precision --.

7What CI compares

These four figures — the held-out slice only — are what classification/eval_gate.py compares against the committed baseline on every push. A drop of more than 0.05 fails the build.

·Where the ground truth comes from

Both scored passes are judged against something a human already wrote down, in the booking database, before this tool existed. Nothing here is scored against another model's opinion — except the recall ceiling and the adjudication, which say so on their own sections.

PassGround truthWhere it comes from
Categoriesthe human category tagReviews.ImprovementPossibilities
Sentimentthe rider's star ratingReviews.Rate
Recall ceilinga second model, sampledjudged from the comment text — an estimate with a stated interval
Adjudicationa stronger model, blinddisputed rows only — labelled adjudicated, never actual

No review text is stored in this repo to produce any of it. The evaluation runs inside the detector run, off the same in-memory rows the detectors were handed, and writes only these numbers.

·Unmet Demand Accuracy

Every no-service, unbookable-leg and thin-service claim in the Unmet Demand report, checked by hand against the live site — https://travel.gjirafa.com/en, by claude-agent (WebFetch against travel.gjirafa.com, 2026-08-10), on 2026-08-10.

A dated snapshot of a third party's site, not a regenerable measurement — routes above can change on the site's own schedule with no code change here. A confirmed row can go stale; check the date before trusting it. A web fetch can also see a published schedule without being able to complete a purchase, so “schedule confirmed, checkout not verified” is a distinct, weaker claim than “confirmed” — see CHECK_PROMPT.md.

17claim(s) checked — 14 confirmed, 3 partially confirmed.

Gjirokaster → Vloraonly 2 departure(s) to catchThe report claims 2 departures, but the fetched page is inconsistent: its informational text says “usually 1 buses operating daily” (operator Boraku, ~15:28), while the live search block on the same page returned “Results not found.” Neither matches ‘2’ cleanly, and a plain page fetch cannot confirm whether that is a real gap or just a missing date/query parameter.Partially confirmed
Real discrepancy in departure count, but not a flat contradiction — the page itself disagrees with its own search results. Worth a human spot-check with an actual dated search rather than a code fix; no code claim is confidently wrong here.
Vlora → Gjirokasteronly 2 departure(s) to catchThe report claims 2 departures. The page's informational text gives one approximate time (“typically departs around 08:30 AM,” operator Boraku) and its live search block returned “Results not found.” Neither confirms 2 departures.Partially confirmed
Same pattern as the reverse direction: the page's own static text and its live search disagree with each other, so this is inconclusive rather than a confirmed contradiction.
Saranda → Shkoderblocked -- needs the unsellable leg via TiranëThe page surfaced one example (12:00 departure from Saranda Station, arriving 19:30 in Shkoder, marked 1 Transfer) plus a “See more results” control; the fetch did not expand it, so not every departure on this route was confirmed to require a transfer.Partially confirmed
The one visible example is consistent with the report's unbookable-leg claim, but the fetch was incomplete — recorded as partial rather than a full confirmation.

·Price fallback accuracy

Every price_mismatch fare with real ticket exposure in the last 90 days, checked by hand against the live site — https://travel.gjirafa.com/en, by not yet checked - the 14 verdicts here until 2026-08-11 described the retired catalog self-join's findings, not the paid-vs-listed ones this tab now prints; preserved in git at 4689b8b:frontend/data/price_fallback_accuracy.json, on 2026-08-11. Fares with no ticket exposure yet are not checked here — see PRICE_CHECK_PROMPT.md's scope note.

A dated snapshot of a third party's site, not a regenerable measurement — a fare's price can change on the site's own schedule with no code change here. A confirmed row can go stale; check the date before trusting it. The site also shows an average price across every operator on a route, and no per-age-group breakdown — neither can be matched against a specific fare by a page fetch alone, so “unverifiable from the page alone” is a distinct, weaker claim than “confirmed” — see PRICE_CHECK_PROMPT.md.

What the company has done about what we found

Every detector's findings are tracked from the run that raised them. A finding leaves its call-sheet tab and appears here when the booking database itself shows the fix — a corrected departure time, a deleted price row, a published station-fee notice, a route that became bookable. Nothing on this page is a guess about intent: it reports that the defect we named is no longer in the data.

1199Findings trackedevery detector, all time
1074Still opennobody has acted yet
0Proven fixedthe DB no longer shows the defect
814With a DB fact storedthese can be proven fixed on a later run

1 · Fixed, and being watched

Nothing yet, and here is exactly why. A fix is proven by comparing the DB fact stored on a finding against the same fact on the next run. The first run after this feature landed only stored those facts — 814 of 1199 findings carry one now — so the earliest a fix can appear here is the run after that. This section is not a statement that nothing has been fixed.

2 · Fixes that did not hold

None. This is the section that answers “did the operator actually change it?” — a finding that was proven fixed and then started reporting again on evidence dated after the fix. It stays empty until something has been fixed at all.

3 · How long each finding has been open

This needs no history and no second run — it is the age of every open finding, and a finding nobody has acted on for six weeks is itself worth a phone call.

4 · What is watched, and what can never be proven this way

Six of the nine kinds of finding leave a trace in the booking database when somebody fixes them. Three do not, and no query will ever prove those — a rude driver, an overbooked coach and a rejected e-ticket look identical to any database. Those are marked below rather than quietly left out.

5 · Are we even looking?

A detector that has not run cannot notice a fix, so this page says which have. Two recorded runs are the floor: one to store the fact, one to see it move.

6 · Is it getting better?

Not measurable yet. The intended measure is the complaint rate before the fix against the rate after it, which needs a fix date with dated evidence either side of it. There are no fix dates yet. It also has to be a rate against tickets sold, never a raw count: traffic on this platform swings 9.4x between January and August, so a complaint count falling into the autumn is a traffic collapse, not an improvement.
