What to expect

Discover Tirana through a unique combination of flavours, stories and iconic landmarks. This walking tour blends local cuisine with cultural highlights, giving you an authentic taste of Albanian life in just a few hours.

Start the morning like a local with warm byrek and refreshing dhalle at a beloved neighbourhood bakery. As you stroll through the city, explore Tirana’s most symbolic sights, including Skanderbeg Square, the Et'hem Bey Mosque, the Clock Tower and the National History Museum.

Along the way, enjoy a variety of delicious street foods, like grilled meatball sandwiches, pispili and daily surprise specialities such as pllaqi (baked beans) or shish (grilled meat stick), served at spots known only to locals. Learn about Albania’s past and present while visiting key institutions such as the Bank of Albania, the Orthodox Cathedral and the Parliament.

Walk the colourful Pedonalja and stop by Bunk’Art 2, an optional museum visit offering insights into Albania’s communist history. The journey concludes at the Pyramid of Tirana, followed by a sweet final stop at a local dessert shop. This experience is ideal for those who want to connect with Tirana through its flavours, history and the everyday rhythm of city life.
