Group Trip to Skadar Lake: Organising for 8+ People
Groups of 8+ need a bit more planning but get a huge experience for reasonable money per head.

Groups of 8+ need a bit more planning but get a huge experience for reasonable money per head.
Every week I get messages asking whether group trip Skadar Lake is worth the money. This is the answer I actually give — with the trade-offs, the honest price bands, and the small details that decide the day.
How this actually works
The way I explain it in one sentence: Two boats travelling together works better than one big boat.
Book lunch in advance — village restaurants have limited terrace capacity. Split by interest: some people can e-bike while others boat.
My honest tips
After years of doing this myself, these are the small things that actually change the day:
- Assign one person as the group organiser.
- Pre-pay to lock in the boats.
Verdict
My one non-negotiable tip: assign one person as the group organiser. Get those three right and you'll have a good day; get them wrong and no amount of money fixes it.
Frequently asked
Is there a boat that fits 20?+
Larger tour boats yes, but the experience is better on two smaller boats.
