Your Jeep Safari begins with a short drive to Lekursi Castle, one of the best panoramic viewpoints in Saranda. Built in 1537 during the Ottoman period, the castle stands high above the city and once played a key defensive role in the region. Today, it offers breathtaking views over Saranda, Ksamil, the Ionian Sea, and Corfu, making it a perfect photo stop and an essential highlight of the tour.

Visit the famous Blue Eye, one of Albania’s most impressive natural attractions. After a short train ride (optional), reach the crystal-clear spring where powerful underwater currents feed the Bistricë River. Access to the site is included; Optional Train Transport is available on site and paid separately. (Entrance included – train transport not included.)

The journey continues to a stunning panoramic viewpoint, where you can take in the fresh air, capture incredible photos, and get your first introduction to the history of the area from your guide.

From here, the adventure moves along scenic roads and light off-road tracks through olive groves and untouched landscapes of the Albanian Riviera, leading to Secret Beach—a hidden and less crowded spot accessible only by off-road vehicles. Enjoy free time to relax, swim in the crystal-clear Ionian waters, or simply unwind in nature.

Stop in Bunec, a quiet village surrounded by olive groves and mountain scenery. Here you’ll have the option to enjoy an optional homemade lunch hosted by a local Albanian family, offering simple and authentic dishes based on local ingredients. Lunch is optional and costs €15, payable directly to the family.

Pass through rural countryside before starting a fun off-road section, adding an adventurous touch to the journey.

The final stop is the Monastery of Saint Nicholas in Mesopotam, one of the most important cultural monuments in southern Albania, where ancient walls reflect layers of history from different periods.

In the late afternoon, return to Saranda with drop-off at your hotel or accommodation.
