Itinerary
1
Durres
Your day starts with a pickup by your tour guide, and then you’ll head towards Durrës. During the drive, your guide will share interesting facts and simple stories about Albania and the areas you pass.
After about 1 hour, you’ll arrive in Durrës and begin a relaxed walking tour to feel the vibe of the city and learn about its history
30 minutes
2
Venetian Tower of Durrës
Descending on foot, we visit one of the city's ancient towers, a restored structure that serves as a panoramic balcony offering a breathtaking 360° view of Durrës and the sea. This is a great opportunity to learn more about the fortifications that once protected this strategic port city.
10 minutes
3
Durres Amphitheatre
Next, we head to the Durrës Amphitheater, one of the most important ancient monuments in Albania. It is the third-largest amphitheater after those in Rome and Capua, a remarkable testament to the Roman era in this city. Although only a small part of it has been uncovered, we will have the chance to explore the section open to visitors and imagine the grand spectacles that once took place here.
10 minutes
4
Promenade Park (Shetitorja "Vollga")
Then, you’ll have around 1 hour of free time at the Vollga Promenade. It’s the perfect moment to enjoy the sea view, grab a coffee, or shop for souvenirs.
1 hour
5
Golem Beach
After that, the tour continues to Golem Beach, the longest sandy beach in Albania. Here you’ll have 2.5 hours of free time to enjoy your day: have lunch, go for a swim, try fun activities, or simply relax by the sea with a drink.
From May to September, everything is open and lively. If you’re visiting outside this period, some places might be quieter or closed, so we appreciate your understanding.
After a relaxing and enjoyable day by the sea, we head back to Tirana with great memories
