So let me giving a more realistic picture: First, you have to drive from Shkod\u00ebr to Koman, a 1h45 drive, including 40 min on a dirt road with massive holes. If you rent a car, chance is your rental car company won&#8217;t allow you to drive on this road in the contract and will charge you extra for doing so. The alternative is to board a bus in Shkod\u00ebr early in the morning. Once arrived in Koman, if you drive, NEVER enter the tunnel that leads to the port. Park your car before the tunnel and walk inside the tunnel or you will be stuck in there for hours in your car. Once at the port, it&#8217;s absolute chaos. This place is very small and very crowded. People looking for their boat, boarding the ferry with their car and motorbikes, etc. The experience gets better only from the moment you boarding your boat. It usually cost ~20\u20ac both ways and one way trip lasts ~1h30 to reach the Shala river. I&#8217;ve tried to find an operator that would take only a small group but could not find one. Expect at least 20-25 people on the boat. Very little explanation during the trip, it&#8217;s basically a taxi service more than a proper guided tour. Landscapes on Komani Lake are stunning and the Shala river truly has this crystal clear water though (keep in mind it&#8217;s absolutely freezing!). Sadly this place is getting more and more commercialised every year. You&#8217;ll understand once you get there! Unless you decide to sleep for 1 night there, expect to spend only a few hours on site because boats are leaving mid-afternoon. You&#8217;ll basically spend more hours in transport than actually enjoying the river (min 6h of transport for 3h on site). Overall still worth the trip but lower your expectations compared to what you might see on social media!
