Just over an hour east of Shkodra awaits an idiosyncratic experience you’ll never forget.  A voyage on the Lake Koman ferry will give you plenty of material for a true traveller’s tale. 

It’s a passenger transport connecting Koman with the town of Fierze, but what makes it essential is the way you’ll experience the cinematic scenery surrounding the lake and interact with the locals. 

The ferry will make regular calls to the shore, taking on farmers and livestock, and at times the vessel will seem precariously overloaded as you pass through mountainous scenery that tumbles down sharply to the water.
