Join us in this Private Tour of Tirana to explore the best highlights of Tirana. You will have the chance to visit Bunkart, Dajti Express, and the most interesting city musts. The combination of the best attractions of Tirana, in and out the city would offer you a clear view for the Metropole of Albania.

   Our guide Andi was fabulous and went above & beyond. He was very accommodating with our requests, even when they were last minute and we already had so much planned... read more for the day. Andi allowed us to change our itinerary based on our interests, which was awesome! Despite the intense tourist traffic, we saw all the sites we wanted toand more. Our start-to-finish tour time wound up being about 17 hours, so plan to be in the car for a long time! (But seeing Montenegro from Albania in one day was totally worth it.) Highly recommend this full day tour and GoAsLocal as a company!

   Tour is amazing, locations included are so beautiful! Andi was so helpful as the tour I booked had no other people booked onto but he helped to sort this out... read more for me. Kevi was the tour guide and he was really friendly and super generous. Both made my time on this trip as enjoyable as possible. Day 2 hike was difficult but so worth it for the views. Couldn’t recommend this tour or this company anymore, great way to experience Albanias sights and local culture. 🙂

   I've been raving so much about this class to friends and family over the last 24 hours I almost forgot to write this review! Thank you Sindi and Andi for... read more introducing me to your delicious food and for your creating a relaxed and classy cooking experience for visitors. From the point of booking up to the very end of the class you've been superb, professional and fun, especially too a party of one. I appreciated all of the personal touches throughout the class and have even picked up a clay pot to be able to recreate everything I've learned back home. Encouraging everyone to do spend time with Andi and Sindi on their next trip to Tirana and get introduced to Albanian food and culture in a memorable way.

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.
