Start with pickup in Përmet, then raft Class 2 to 3 rapids through Vjosa River National Park with certified guides such as Tim and Tini. After swimming and a riverside snack stop, soak beneath Benja’s Ottoman bridge. The river is the star, while the baths add a quiet finish.

“El rafting fue una maravilla,el instructor súper atento, hizo la experiencia muy buena, bajada por el río fácil, no hace falta tener experiencia previa. Los baños termales muy bonitos. Recomiendo mucho hacer esta actividad, yo volvería a hacerla aunque si queréis visitar las termas aconsejo hacerlo por vuestra cuenta.”

Cependant je trouve le prix légèrement élevé, sinon c'était top et le guide à une conduite plus qu'irréprochable ! Merci encore !”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 18 reviews · 4 to 6 hours (approx.) · from $151

Travel privately from Saranda to Këlcyrë Gorge, Benja’s six natural sulfur baths, and Langarica Canyon with an English-speaking guide. Plan on 4 to 6 hours, bring swimming shoes, and start early to enjoy the water and canyon before the heat and crowds.

“Absolutely amazing experience! This is really something you have to take the opportunity to experience, it is a memory for life. We got a super nice and professional guide, he showed us through the langarica canyon and we got to swim in three natural mineral baths. The walk through the canyon was on foot through water/mud/stone so swimming shoes are a must. Can't describe how nice it is. The guide was familiar and recommended us to leave earlier to avoid the heat and crowds of people, which was a stroke of genius. We had time to swim and hike for hours before the heat came and the crowds of people…”
