Saranda Tour

At the indicated time, we'll pick you up at Abedin Dino Street and embark on a tour of Saranda to discover the main attractions of one of the most popular destinations on the Albanian Riviera!

First, we'll stop in front of the Onhezmi Gate, dating back to the 1st century BC. After learning about its history, we'll head to the ruins of the ancient Saranda Synagogue. Did you know that its remains were used to build an early Christian basilica? In fact, this whole monumental complex evolved a lot over the centuries.

Next, we'll pass by the Archaeological Museum and the Museum of Traditions and continue our route to the Orthodox Church of Saranda. We'll stop in front of its facade to appreciate the architectural details of this monument, which is one of the most revered temples in the city.

We'll then continue our tour of Saranda next to the Lëkurësi Castle, a sturdy fortress located on top of a hill. This location, which overlooks the entire coast, made this bastion a key fortress during the 16th century. At that time, this area of the Albanian coast belonged to the Ottoman Empire of Suleiman the Magnificent.

Finally, after 4 hours of sightseeing, we'll conclude the tour back at the meeting point.
