Very interesting tour focusing on Albania during the second world war, with Gazi trying to answer all of our questions and explaining a quite turbulent part of history in a simple way.

A great short tour by Gazi, dealing with quite difficult but very important matters. I really enjoyed it. I'll certainly do more tours with him. Thank you.
