Full description
Start your day with an early morning pickup from Tirana, Durrës or Golem. Sit back and relax as your professional tour guide takes care of everything, sharing interesting facts about Albania and the places you will visit along the way.
After a short coffee and restroom stop, we head to Gjirokastër, a UNESCO World Heritage Site known as the “Stone City.” Upon arrival, the guide will introduce the history of the city and walk with you to the old town. You will then enjoy 1 hour of free time to explore the charming stone streets, visit the old bazaar, have a coffee, or enjoy a light snack while experiencing the authentic atmosphere of this historic city.
After your free time in Gjirokastër, we continue to the Blue Eye (Syri i Kaltër), one of Albania’s most remarkable natural attractions. Surrounded by lush greenery, this stunning spring is famous for its deep turquoise waters and mysterious depth. Here, you will have 1.5 hours of free time to walk through the nature park, admire the crystal-clear spring, take photos, enjoy the peaceful surroundings, or relax at one of the nearby cafés.
From the Blue Eye, we continue to Ksamil, one of Albania’s most famous seaside destinations, known for its white beaches and crystal-clear waters. In Ksamil, you will have 1.5 hours of free time to swim, relax on the beach, enjoy food or drinks with a sea view, take photos, or simply soak up the Mediterranean atmosphere. Before your free time begins, the tour guide will clearly explain all available options and assist you if needed. In Ksamil you can also have as an option a boat trip to see the islands.
At the end of this full-day experience combining culture, nature, and coastal beauty, we return to Tirana, Durrës, or Golem with unforgettable memories from southern Albania
