Tour Overview
Day 1
Berat
At 9:00 am in the morning, our tour guide will come and pick you up at your hotel to begin the day tour of Berat. Berat is known as the town of 1001 windows, part of UNESCO world heritage.
Walking through the narrowed stone streets offers a fantastic view of the medieval old houses, with windows that seem to stand on top of each other. The city’s life began in the 6th-5th century B.C. as an Illyrian settlement. Later, in the 3rd century B.C., it was turned into a castle city known as Antipatrea. Uniquely today, residents still live inside of the castle walls. Berat has it all; a beautiful medieval castle, ancient churches and mosques, a lively lower town consisting of grand old houses draped on steep hillsides, an old stone bridge, great museums and remains from the communist era in Albania. Berat is also known as the birthplace of Onufri, the famous painter of churches all-over the Balkans, distinguished for creating a specific reddish colour still difficult to imitate. At 12:30, you will have some free time to have lunch and wander around by yourself till 14:00 pm. After lunch we will continue our tour and visit the Gorica Neighbourhood. We will be back in Tirana in the late afternoon.
