Our first stop upon arriving in Gjirokastra will be the bustling Gjirokastra Bazaar, a vibrant marketplace where local crafts, textiles, and traditional Albanian products beckon visitors.
After exploring the bazaar, we’ll ascend the winding road leading to the magnificent Gjirokastra Castle, a true architectural marvel.
Within its walls, we’ll discover the castle’s museum and the castle’s notorious old prison.
Continuing our journey within the castle, we’ll make our way to its highest point, where the iconic clock tower is located.
A last stop is made in the Zekate House, a local fortress house where you can learn how the rich families used to live back in the day.
A mere 30 kilometers from Gjirokaster, a hidden gem awaits us within the heart of the forest. We will conclude the tour with the exploration of the awe-inspiring natural wonder of the Blue Eye.
