day 1Saranda City Tour & Lekursi Castle

Tirana - Saranda - Albanian Riviera. In the morning, our tour leader will pick you up from your hotel in Tirana, so make sure you arrive in the city at least one night before your tour begins.
Our first destination is Saranda, known as the pearl of the Albanian Riviera and the unofficial capital of Albania, especially in summer. Set along the Ionian Sea with stunning views of Corfu Island, Saranda enjoys over 300 sunny days a year. Famous for its rocky beaches, scenic bays, rich flora, citrus groves, olive plantations, and vineyards, the city’s port connects southern Albania with Mediterranean countries. After exploring the city, you'll have time to relax on the beaches or explore at your leisure. In the afternoon, take a stroll along the promenade by the Ionian Sea, enjoy a coffee or ice cream, and soak in the views. As the day ends, Saranda offers an unforgettable sunset, filling the sky with vibrant colours.
Next, we'll head to Lekursi Castle, perched on a hill above the city, where we’ll enjoy one of the region’s most spectacular panoramic views. As the sun sets, the sky transforms with brilliant hues of pink, orange, and purple, casting a magical glow over the sea. We’ll spend the night near the Albanian Riviera, soaking in the tranquil atmosphere.
