Itinerary

Tirana
Tirana

Get ready to explore the heart of Tirana in a truly unique way. Make sure to save some appetite, the city has plenty of flavors waiting for you! Join your friendly guide on a flavorful adventure through the city’s lively streets, hidden corners, and bustling markets. We will begin at a cozy local spot to taste Byrek, a beloved Albanian pastry filled with cheese, spinach, or meat.
Next, we will wander through the colorful Çam Bazaar, where you can bargain for everything from souvenirs to kitchen gadgets, just like the locals do. Along the way, your guide will introduce you to everyday life in Tirana as we stroll through charming alleyways, with opportunities to sample fresh fruits, seasonal treats, and other local flavors.
Our journey continues through Tirana’s vibrant neighborhoods to the unusual Bicycle Bazaar, famous for its second-hand treasures and unique finds. Then we will visit the New Bazaar, a lively market area unlike the outdoor sellers we have seen so far. Here, fresh fruits, vegetables, cheeses and other regional specialties are beautifully arranged in colorful stalls, offering a more organized and immersive market experience.
We will round off our day with a hearty traditional Albanian meal, followed by a sweet local dessert.
To top it all off we will have a taste of Grape Raki, the signature Albanian spirit that locals claim “warms the heart and sparks a smile.” Gezuar!
