Half-day van tour from Sarandë to Blue Eye Spring and Lekursi Castle sunset, with guide, photos, and seasonal train option.
“Thoroughly enjoyed this trip, really well organised (including a WhatsApp message before confirming the time/location). A great way to see the blue eye and the incredible sunset! Go and book!!!”
A 7-course Albanian music and dance dinner in Tirana, with costume dressing, circle dances, and Kanun stories, plus halal food.
“the show is fairly accpetable. the food is bad, there are no sitting locations, the food is not suitable for people eating Halal, Kosher or vegeterian, there is no options and nobody to talk to regarding the foot. nobody asks about food allergies.”
Tirana Albanian Night: dress in traditional costume, hear UNESCO Iso-Polyphony, join the valle circle dance, and optional 7-course dinner.
“I must say, this was my best attended traditional show i have ever had. You step into the traditional Albanian world, the music is just wonderful to listen to even though i dont understand it. Loved the vibes and the place. For me was this one of the best highlights of my Albania trip. We get traditional Albanian dresses and also had the opportunity to participate in the Albanian dance. You cannot leave Albania without attending this show.”

A short sunset ride from Ksamil or Sarandë to Syri i Kaltër and Lekursi Castle, with walk or train options, great photo stops, and easy timing.
“It was really good for value and the sounding nature at the blue eye wall was amazing! I would have liked the guide to be more informative and have more knowledge of the area.”
Sunset from Durres to Bovilla Lake and Gamti Mountain, with hotel pickup, English guide, scenic stops, and a moderate hike for great photos.
“It was a truly wonderful day, made even better by our guide Afrim. Luckily it was a small group , which made the day and interaction with the guide easier. The hike was short and not really strenuous. However, the landscapes are worth the money spent. Thanks Afrim 😃😃”
One-day Saranda tour to Blue Eye spring and Lekuresi Fortress, with guided visits, photo stops, and round-trip van transport for $28.
“Het was een super combinatie van activiteiten. Je hebt genoeg tijd bij elke activiteit. Het was voor mij alleen niet helemaal duidelijk dat het een tour was zonder informatie over de bezienswaardigheden. Deze tour was meer een chauffeur. Hij gaf korte instructie hoe we bij de bezienswaardigheden moesten komen en dat was dat.”
Kruja Castle and Old Bazaar after dark from Durres or Golem, with hotel pickup, Skanderbeg stories, and mountain views. 4.5 hours.
“A beatiful place to visit by night. Much lower temperatures and fewer people, so you can enjoy the view and see how night falls over this part of Albania. The guide is very nice. He knows a lot about the area and goes out of his way to make you have a good time.”
Small-group sunset tour from Sarandë to Blue Eye, Isak Winery, and Lekursi Castle with guide, transfers, and panoramic views.

UNESCO Berat and Apollonia sunset in one day from Tirana, with a guide for context, castle views, and optional traditional lunch.
“I have to say, this was one of the highlights of our trip to Albania. Our guide Jetmir was extremely attentive and informative. He made sure our trip was one for the books. Berat is one of the most beautiful cities in Albania and we had enough time to explore and even enjoy traditional lunch there. Apollonia is without a doubt a must see when visiting Albania. The museum is pretty impressive and the ruins of the city are breathtaking. The time of our visit to the archeological site was perfect, because we were able to capture pictures with a beautiful golden light. I would highly recommend this experience to…”
A 90-minute Tirana night walk with Mirko, from Skanderbeg Square to the Pyramid and Blloku, ending with rooftop sunset views.
