Free walking tours in Lezhë District

Greetings, lovely humans visiting my birthplace city! I am a young enthusiast of history, science, and much more, with a degree in History and Philology. I left Tirana to come live in Laç. As an old Albanian proverb says, “A heavy stone is heaviest in its original place.” (It sounds much better in Albanian.) :) One issue I’ve noticed with tourism, both here and in other countries, is the lack of true community interaction. Tourists often receive a curated experience that separates them from the real life of the city and its people. Locals tend to keep the “tourist version” separate, hiding the authentic parts of life that don’t fit the flashy, Instagrammable image. As your tour guide, I aim to take you beyond that surface. Together, we’ll explore the rich historical tapestry of Laç and Albania in its entirety. I speak fluent English and Italian, and I’ve worked in Albania’s growing tourism industry for three years now, especially near the stunning agriturismo “Lahuta e Vjetër.” I’ll do my best to be not only your guide through my chaotically beautiful country, but also your friend from a foreign misunderstood land. More than just sharing history or facts, my goal is to tell you the small, powerful stories, the ones that often go unnoticed and aren’t found online. The ones that move me deeply: tales of resilience, joy, hardship, and humanity during times of communism and poverty. Stories of bravery, sacrifice, and tradition that reflect how Albanians, past and present see the world. I want to offer more than just sights. I want to give you a taste of how it feels to live here.
