What You Will Do

If you want to get a taste of the authentic local culture instead of visiting the standard tourist attractions in Tirana, the best thing to do is to jump into this day tour. You will have an insight into the hidden alleyways and bustling street markets of Tirana, where dozens of street hawkers sell fresh vegetables and fruits. After walking through the busy streets, we will try Byrek at a small local place that only locals know. You will get to know the city and its local people through getting to know the local cuisine during lunch time. We will try the traditional Qofte (small pieces of meat filled with spices), fried potatoes, fresh bread and traditional sauce. To end this tour in the best way, we will try some Albanian Raki as well. As we Albanians say, there is nothing that Raki can’t fix!
