Overview

Our tour shows you Berat in a more personal and authentic way. We walk through the old town’s narrow stone alleys, giving you a real sense of how people lived here in the past.

Along the route, we often stop by a traditional Albanian house, where the family welcomes visitors with homemade sweets, a little raki, and warm hospitality. It’s a genuine moment that connects you directly with local life.

If you’d like, the tour can also include a visit to a local winery, where you can explore the vineyards, taste their wines, and enjoy simple, traditional food.
