Albania

We start from Tirana with a relaxed morning pickup and a special Albanian coffee. Then we stop at a local street for authentic Byrek and traditional Albanian delicacies (lunch on me). Next, visit my private magic waterfall for a peaceful swim or relaxing moment. We continue to the spectacular Vjosa River Canyon near Përmet for breathtaking views. Then we explore Gjirokastër — the UNESCO stone city, the historic Old Bazaar, and the impressive castle (at your own pace).

Ksamil

A full relaxed day on the Albanian Riviera. We visit the magical Blue Eye (Syri i Kaltër) — the famous natural spring with crystal-clear turquoise water. Then we explore the ancient UNESCO archaeological site of Butrint (Greek, Roman, and Byzantine ruins — easy flat walking). In the afternoon we enjoy Ksamil Beach — one of Albania’s most beautiful beaches. Plenty of time for swimming in the turquoise sea, relaxing on the beach, having lunch with a sea view, or simply unwinding at your hotel.

Llogara National Park

We leave Ksamil in the morning for a beautiful scenic drive along the Riviera with plenty of photo stops. Stop in Himara for a relaxed walk around the charming old town, coffee, and drinks with sea views (on your own). Continue through the picturesque village of Dhërmi. Stop at Borsh Waterfall for refreshing photos. Visit Porto Palermo Castle — a dramatic fortress by the sea, with time for a swim in the crystal-clear water. Drive up the breathtaking Llogara Pass with epic mountain and sea panoramas. Enjoy a delicious lunch at a wonderful mountain restaurant with fresh local products. The tour ends with a special personal experience: visit my father-in-law’s house to meet locals, taste homemade rakija, and enjoy real Albanian hospitality and stories. Comfortable return to Tirana in the evening.
