What you can expect

Start your journey with pickup from Tirana, Durrës, or Golem and travel towards the heart of Albania’s cultural heritage.
Travel towards Berat, one of Albania’s most beautiful and historic cities, recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Known as the “City of a Thousand Windows,” Berat is famous for its well-preserved Ottoman architecture, white stone houses, and rich cultural history.

Visit the magnificent Berat Castle, one of the largest inhabited castles in the Balkans. Explore its ancient streets, traditional homes, and panoramic viewpoints overlooking the Osum River and the city below. Learn about the fascinating history of the area from your guide while discovering the unique blend of Albanian, Byzantine, and Ottoman influences.

After the castle visit, stroll through the charming areas of Mangalemi and Gorica, connected by the historic Gorica Bridge. Enjoy free time to relax, take photos, shop for local souvenirs, or try traditional Albanian cuisine at a local restaurant.

After a full day of history, culture, and scenic landscapes, return comfortably to your original pickup location.
