From Tirana, we travel to the stone and light embrace of Berat, the city of a thousand windows.
But first, we’ll stop in Elbasan and Belsh. Elbasan was a key stop on the ancient Via Egnatia, the Roman route that connected Durres with Constantinople. Today, Elbasan blends Ottoman ruins with a modern atmosphere. Belsh, located in the center of the country in the Elbasan region, is famous for its unique lake landscape. It is part of the Dumre plateau, home to more than 80 natural lakes formed by karst processes. This area is ideal for ecotourism and relaxation in a peaceful rural setting. Arrival in Berat. Panoramic tour included with a local guide. Ottoman houses clinging to the hillside, the silent fortress, and narrow streets full of history invite us to begin the journey with an open soul. You’ll also have the opportunity to visit a local home and enjoy coffee and sweets with a local family. Free time. Traditional dinner included to savor the Albanian heart.
After breakfast, our route takes us to the breathtaking Osum canyon, where water carves impossible landscapes and nature breathes with force.
Here we’ll enjoy a light walk, and those who wish may experience the adventure of rafting. We then continue to Gjirokastra, the “stone city” and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, where time seems to stand still. Dinner included at the hotel.
The day begins with the mystical beauty of the Blue Eye, a spring that seems to hide a piece of sky within the earth.
We continue to the Butrint National Park, where ancient myths and Greco-Roman ruins blend with nature. We’ll visit the archaeological site with a guide and take a gentle walk through the natural park, discovering birds, wetlands, and green tranquility. After the visit, before continuing the route, we’ll make a short technical stop in Butrint to rest. On the way, we’ll make a brief stop at the Brataj Bridge, an Ottoman jewel over the Shushicë River, perfect for photos and a last pause on the route. Arrival in Vlorë, where the Adriatic and the Ionian meet in an endless embrace. Free walk at sunset and an evening to dine to the slow rhythm of the sea. Dinner included.
The day begins with a visit to the archaeological site of Apollonia, surrounded by columns and silence, ruins and olive trees.
We then continue to Durrës, a lively Mediterranean city with its Roman amphitheater and bustling streets. Lunch included to savor the coastal flavors. Our last stop is the serene Preza Fortress, where the views bid a gentle farewell to the Albanian landscape. Return to Tirana with hearts full of light, stone, and water. Arrival in Tirana at the end of the afternoon. Accommodation.
After breakfast, we´ll transfer you to the airport and the journey will come to an end, leaving you with wonderful, lasting memories.
Remember that hotels check-out time is usually at 10.00 hrs. In most cases, you can leave your luggage at the hotel reception at check-out time, so you can enjoy the city and pick it up at the time you require that same day. If you need more time to use your room, please consider booking an additional night at the end of your tour.
