Sarande: Pub Crawl & Boat Party, 6 Shots, 1 Beer Club Entry
Sarandë’s nightlife gets a proper sea-level launch here: you begin at a rooftop bar, then move onto a boat party before finishing at Bluz Club and Orange Club. The mix of open-air views, music, and several venues gives the night a clear rhythm instead of leaving you to guess where to go next.
I like the six included shots and the simple club-hopping plan. I also like that the boat ticket and club entrance are covered, since these costs can quickly add up on a night out. The main concern is reliability: two low ratings describe trouble at the rooftop meeting point, including nobody being there, so confirm the start time and location before you leave.
Key points to know before booking

- Four-part night out: The evening combines a rooftop bar, boat party, Bluz Club, and Orange Club.
- Six shots are included: You also receive one beer or soft drink, although a drink order is required at the first stop.
- Sea views are part of the appeal: The boat gives you a change from crowded indoor bars and adds fresh air to the night.
- Late finish: Orange Club is planned as the final stop, with dancing continuing until sunrise.
- English and Italian support: The host or greeter operates in both languages.
- Bring identification: An ID card is required, and a copy is accepted.
Starting with shots and a rooftop view

The night begins at a rooftop bar in Sarandë. This is more than a place to collect a wristband or wait for the group. It gives you a chance to look over the town, meet people early, and start the evening before the louder club stops take over.
Six welcome shots are included, which is a generous amount for a pub crawl priced at $57 per person. You also receive one beer or soft drink. Still, read the payment detail carefully: one drink order is required at the first stop, and that order is not included as part of the six shots and the supplied drink.
That condition matters when you compare the price. The package covers the boat party, club entrance, six shots, and one drink, but you should allow extra money for the required order and anything else you buy during the night. If you prefer to drink lightly, you can choose the soft drink included in the package, though the six shots remain part of the planned welcome.
The meeting point is the RoofTop Bar in Sarandë. One practical warning deserves attention. A September rating says the person arrived at the rooftop and found nobody there, while another low rating calls the experience a scam. Those comments do not tell you the full story, but they are enough reason to confirm the meeting details directly before heading out. Keep the booking information on your phone and arrive with time to spare.

Taking the party onto the boat

The boat party is the most distinctive part of the evening. Instead of staying inside bars all night, you get music, dancing, and sea air as the group moves out on the water. That change of setting is valuable in a town where a night can otherwise blur into one club after another.
You can expect the boat portion to be social rather than quiet. The plan calls for music and dancing, so this is not a sightseeing cruise with a narrated route. The attraction is the combination of movement, views, and a shared party atmosphere.
Bring comfortable shoes, as advised for the activity. They matter on the boat as well as at the clubs, where you may be standing and dancing for hours. An ID card is also required for the night, and a copy is accepted. Keep it secure, since you may need it for entry.
The provided information does not specify the boat’s exact departure time, route, seating, or weather arrangements. You should not book this expecting a fixed sightseeing itinerary. The boat is best understood as one lively section of a six-hour night, with the sea providing the backdrop.
Bluz Club brings the night indoors

After the boat, the group heads to Bluz Club. This stop is described as a place of lights, beats, and dancing, making it the point where the evening shifts firmly into club mode.
The value here is convenience. Going with an organized group can make entry simpler than arriving alone and working out where to go. The package includes club entrance, so you are not paying a separate cover charge at every major stop.
You should still keep your expectations in the right range. The activity promises music and a lively setting, but it does not provide details about the DJ, music style, dress code, or the size of the group. If those details affect your choice, ask before booking.
Bluz Club also gives the evening some variety. The rooftop stop offers views, the boat supplies open air, and this club provides a more concentrated dance setting. The stops are not just four versions of the same bar.
Orange Club is the final push toward sunrise
The final stop is Orange Club, one of Sarandë’s top clubs according to the activity details. The plan is to keep dancing there until sunrise, so this is aimed at people who want a full night rather than an early finish.
That late ending makes the six-hour duration important. You are not signing up for a quick tasting of Sarandë’s nightlife. You are choosing a structured night that begins with drinks and keeps moving through several venues before ending at the club.
I would book this final stop with your own energy level in mind. Six hours of shots, dancing, boat time, and club music can be a lot, especially if you are not used to late nights. Comfortable footwear, a charged phone, and a little restraint with the included shots will help you enjoy the whole route rather than run out of steam halfway through.
The club entrance is included, which is useful at the end of the night. By then, you have already paid for the activity, and you will not need to decide whether another cover charge is worth it.

What the $57 price really covers
At $57, this is not simply a pub crawl with a guide leading you between bars. The price includes four major pieces of the evening:
- Six welcome shots
- One beer or soft drink
- The boat party ticket
- Club entrance
That package can offer fair value if you plan to visit a boat party and at least one club anyway. Buying those parts separately could cost a similar amount, though the exact comparison depends on venue prices and what you order.
The value is weaker if you do not want the boat party or dislike late clubs. You are paying for the complete night, not selecting individual stops. The required drink order at the first venue also means the advertised price is not the full amount you might spend.
Two strong ratings describe easy entry, several venues, good views from the boat, and a friendly social atmosphere. Those are the areas where the experience makes the most sense. You pay for a ready-made night and the chance to meet people without arranging each venue yourself.
The rating average is 4 from 12 reviews, which suggests a generally positive but not spotless record. The two one-star ratings are important because they raise a practical concern about the start of the evening. I would not ignore them. Confirm the rooftop meeting point and exact start time before you rely on this as your only night out in Sarandë.
Who will enjoy this night most
This activity suits you if you want music, dancing, and a social evening with little planning. It is especially useful if you are visiting Sarandë for a short stay and want to sample several nightlife settings in one night.
It also fits solo visitors and small groups who want an easy way to meet people. The activity is built around moving together from the rooftop to the boat and then to the clubs. Two highly positive ratings focus on meeting friendly people and enjoying the group atmosphere.
You may want a different plan if you prefer a quiet dinner, a relaxed waterfront drink, or control over the pace. The night has a fixed structure, includes six shots, and aims to continue until sunrise. It is not designed for an early bedtime or a flexible, choose-as-you-go evening.
The available host languages are English and Italian. That should help if you speak either language, though no individual guide names are provided. You can expect a host or greeter rather than a history guide explaining Sarandë’s culture or coastline.
Small details that can make the night easier
Arrive at the RoofTop Bar with your ID and booking information ready. Because of the reported meeting-point problem, I would confirm the location on the day and avoid assuming that simply reaching the rooftop guarantees you will find the group.
Wear shoes that can handle a boat deck and hours of dancing. Carry only what you need, and keep your phone and identification secure during the change between venues.
The event lasts six hours, but the exact starting time depends on availability. Check the available date and start time before paying. The activity offers free cancellation up to 24 hours in advance for a full refund, and you can reserve now and pay later, which is useful if your Sarandë plans are still shifting.
The information does not state the group size, boat capacity, food arrangements, transport between venues, or accessibility details. If any of those affect your decision, ask the provider before booking rather than guessing.
Should you book the Sarandë pub crawl and boat party?
Book it if you want a ready-made, late-night party with a boat ride, four stops, included drinks, and club entry. The strongest reasons are the sea setting, the variety of venues, and the chance to meet people without planning the route yourself.
I would be cautious if the meeting point cannot be confirmed. The two poor ratings are too specific to dismiss, even though other ratings describe a fun boat party, easy club access, and a good social atmosphere.
For the right person, $57 is reasonable for the bundled inclusions. Just treat the required first drink as an extra cost, bring comfortable shoes and ID, and verify the rooftop arrangements before you set out.
