This 7 day tour aims to present Albanian cities/sites and objects, which fall under UNESCO protection. Albania counts several cities and objects that are part of our cultural heritage, so the value of this particular tour is of great cultural and archaeological importance. During the 7 day tour, you will explore the fabulous town of Berat (known as the city of the THOUSAND AND ONE WINDOWS), and Gjirokastra, the stone town that still fanatically fosters the tradition and culture of the country. You will also explore the ancient city of Butrint, which was proclaimed a museum in 1961, and in 1992 entered under the protection of UNESCO; The Blue Eye Natural Park; the fascinating old village of Qeparo, and enjoy free time on the lovely Himara beaches. Further on, you visit Përmet (known as the City of Roses), and we'll pass by Tepelena, with a visit of Ali Pasha Tepelena Castle.

Upon arriving to Saranda I knew I wanted to see more of the other locations outside of the general area. So, in loving the fine folks at Tea Tours, I opted to take a tour to Qeparo and Himara. I mean, you can't go wrong. An ancient village, reminiscent of what some movies are made of and the beautiful beach in Himara to enjoy after perusing Qeparo. And, Qeparo itself, set upon the top of a mountain, truly has some incredible photo opportunities to discover and capture. And the village, while barely inhabited by the locals, also has many opportunities to snap a great architectural photo. I do hope to tour a little more with Tea Tours, as everyone there is truly helpful, and kind. And, the guide, fantastic!

Into the land of tangerines closer to the ancient city of Butrint we organise the Mandarina Tour, a truly individually guided experience with local farmers and local dishes. Farmers will give us some basic information on how to collect the fruit, how to respect the processes involved and then take part in an age old tradition of picking the delicious fruit. After the wooden crates are full we'll stop and rest, in an idyllic spot where farmers will prepare a sumptuous lunch with traditional fayre: byrek, tava, feta cheese, two kind of petulla, vegetables, three kind of jam, olives, orange juice, water and red wine. The taste of our land is on the table prepared with smiles. The head farmer will then address us with a talk all about tangerines, the history of our village, the productivity of the business and about his passion for the sun blessed fruit.

Inclusions: Dish of the day (traditional one), feta, local jum, baked, homemade bread, Orange juice, wine, Fruits, orange and tangerine, gloves and clippers, Private transportation, All Fees and Taxes

We are two families that took our kids (3, 4, 5 and 6 years of age) on the sunset mussel tour. It was amazing! Mussels were the best! The fish was also amazing (for those that didn’t eat mussels). Soraldo our tour guide was very good and spoke good English. Our children had a fun time. The boat had shade and life jackets for adults and children. All round was a great authentic experience and would highly recommend. Great for families and very affordable.

It should be noted that the thermal springs are not hot springs. I was surprised when I felt the cool water. Also, the algae has made footing extremely slippery so be careful.
