   Andi picked us up from our hotel.  We had an amazing day in Berat.  Well worth the visit.  Very interesting and Andi was a great guide very... read more knowledgeable.  After Berat we had lunch at Alpeta winery where we had a very nice glass of Albanian white wine.

   A really amazing journey. Andi is a great guide and was knowledgeable, charming and very enthusiastic. The 4 day tour was as described, a decent level of fitness is required... read more but Andi goes at his group’s pace. Guest houses, accommodation and meals were amazing. Hospitality was wonderful. There was so much versatility over the 4 days: boat trip in beautiful scenery, local villages, a dip in the “very” cold river, a testing hike with stunning views, waterfalls and local history, the lovely town/city of skhoder to discover, Delicious Albanian food, fresh spring water to drink (plus local wines and beers in abundance) and a soothing day paddle boarding discovering Albania’s bird life on beautiful rivers with swim stops. All in alI I could not fault the 4 days and would highly recommend this experience to get a real feel of Albania and it’s beautiful countryside and villages and people. Travel organisation for the whole group from pick up to dropping us back at our various hotels/Apparments was spot on. Andi goes that extra mile to make sure his group have an unforgettable experience. You just have to turn up at the designated time and Andi has everything else covered.

   This was a great tour. Xhulio was an amazing guide and even adapted it last minute to cater for vegetarians. It was like an easy going private walking tour with... read more food stops so a perfect introduction to Tirana and we were given plenty of reccomendations for other things to do and places to go whilst we're here. I would reccomend this tour to anyone who is in Tirana and would like an introduction to the city and Albanian cuisine

Tour Details

This tour will introduce you to the local Tirana and its cultural, historical and culinary heritage. As an urban metropolis, it is full of contrasts in which can easily be noticed the scars from the past and the present. Above all, it is the crossway of different periods of Albanian Modern History.

This Private tour of Tirana is a combination of City Walking Tour and Driving Tour. During the walking part, we will be able to explore most of the City Centre of Tirana, Main Boulevard, New Bazaar Area and “Bllok”.

Out of the city we drive toward the Bunkart, a former Nuclear Bunkers of the ’70. The most lively souvenir of the Albanian Communist Period. The next station will be driving to Dajti Mountain when we get the cable car to enjoy the great view of Tirana.

Itinerary

DrivingBunkart

Built during the ’70s it was an Anti-Atomic Bunker that will protect the Albanian Communist Elite in case of a Nuclear Attack. With more than 100 rooms, now it is a Unique Museum that introduces us the everyday Albanian Life after the Second World War till the ’90, under the Communist Regime.

DrivingDajti Mountain Cable Car

Not far from Bunkart we will get the Cable Car which sends us near the top of Dajti Mountain when we can enjoy an amazing view of the City.
Short break at the Dajti Express Bar.

WalkingMain Boulevard "Deshmoret e Kombit"

Build in the ’40s during the Italian occupation of Albania it was first named “Avenue of the Empire”. The architecture was very similar to the Fascist Axe of the Italian Flag. After the Second World War, hugely used for Military Parades organized by communist goverment. Big Show of the time!

Walking"Blloku"

The former Residencial Area of the Communist Elite. It is where the Enver Hoxha used to live with his family and his close supporters. During the Communist time, entering there was not possible as it was guarded by the military.
Now, totally different is the main business and nightlife area of Tirana. Still, the Villa of Enver Hoxha stands there, as the last souvenir of the past regime.

WalkingScanderbeg Square

Rebuild recently it is the biggest Main Square of Albania. Surrounded by the Government Buildings and in the middle of the 2 main boulevards of Tirana. This square had seen a lot and had lots to tell.

WalkingNew Bazaar Area

One of the 10th most interesting Bazaars in Balkans! Renovated under the same project as the Main Square it is a good combination of Local Food, Souvenirs shop and lots of bars.
