Tour description

This tour involves the main attractions of vibrant Tirana city.
You will get to see communist-era buildings, marvel at breathtaking city views, and stroll through the most interesting museums.

Having transformed extraordinary proportions since awakening from its communist slumber in the early 1990s, Tirana’s center is now unrecognizable, with buildings painted in primary colors, public squares, and pedestrianized streets that are a pleasure to wander.

Add to this some excellent museums, and you will have a compelling list of reasons to visit.

Anxhela was absolutely fantastic! After our first booking got cancelled due to the rain, she was very accommodating and welcoming when we rebooked for later the same day. She is a great guide, who really knows her Tirana, and the passion is definitely felt throughout the tour. We definitely saw a very different side to Tirana and it’s made our holiday so much better! Highly highly recommend!

Another excellent tour from GuruWalks! Anxhela made everything so interesting, careful to interact with everyone in the group and had prepared a route which not only included many sites but also ended less than a minute's walk from the start point. Great for orientation to find the right bus home!
