A lively 2h15 English walking tour of Tirana, linking Skanderbeg Square, BunkArt 2, Blloku, and the Orthodox Cathedral with included admissions.

“We had the pleasure of joining a walking tour in Tirana with our guide, K, and it was an unforgettable experience. K explained the history of Albania in a clear, engaging, and passionate way, weaving in stories from his own family’s life under Communism. Hearing personal experiences from a local made the history come alive in a way no book or museum ever could. This tour is perfect for anyone who wants to truly understand Albania — its past, its culture, and its people. K’s storytelling not only deepened my knowledge, but also made me fall in love with the country. Highly recommended!”

“We had such a fantastic time on our walking tour of Tirana with Celeste! She was warm, funny, and incredibly passionate about Albania, which made the whole experience so special. You could tell she truly loves what she does—and her excitement was contagious. Celeste didn’t just show us the sights; she told the stories behind them, giving us a real sense of the city’s history and spirit. We saw places we never would’ve found on our own and left feeling connected to Tirana in a way we didn’t expect. If you’re visiting, this tour is a must!”

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 278 reviews · 4h 30m · from $45

Half-day Saranda tour with Lekursi Castle views and Blue Eye kayaking plus big free time for photos, swimming, and relaxing.

“The best part of the trip was the kayaking, hands down. That does not mean that the rest was boring or not good, but for me the kayaking is what makes this trip special. You get to enjoy the crystal clear, but cold waters which is particularly nice on a hot day. If I had just gone to Blue Eye for the spring, without the kayaking, I might have even been disappointed. Overall, this is a well-rounded tour. Ledjon as a guide knows exactly how much historical and political background information is needed, but can always provide more. As others have mentioned, parking near the starting point is difficult, so…”

Taste your way through Tirana on a small-group walking tour with byrek, market snacks, local cheeses and olive oil, and grape raki.

“The best part was just wandering the city and exploring the food with our guide and another guest. We found that we were not very fond of Albanian food, but glad to have experienced it all. The only negative was that the agency doing the tour had recently moved, and even though they were in contact with us by Whatsapp in advance of the tour, they did not mention that they had moved and while we did manage to connect with the guide, it would have helped if the agency had sent us the new location.”
