Arrival at Tirana airport.

Meet and greet by your tour guide. Transfer to Gjirokastër and check in to the hotel.

City tour, your flight schedule dictates the intensity of this tour.

Wander through the Old Bazaar, a labyrinth of narrow, winding streets lined with stone buildings. Here, you can shop for traditional handicrafts, silver jewelry, and souvenirs. Stop for a coffee or a traditional Albanian meal in one of the quaint restaurants. The atmosphere is rich in history, and you’ll get a true taste of local life. Your journey starts at the imposing Gjirokastër Castle, one of the largest and most well-preserved in the Balkans. Dating back to the 12th century, it offers panoramic views of the city and the surrounding valley. As you explore the castle, you’ll find military museums, old cannons, and the eerie observation tower that looks out over the picturesque town.

Either a lunch or dinner, it remains delicious and energizing.  Enjoy pickled vegetables and roasted meat variety.

Overnight in Gjirokastër.
