Blue Eye, Lëkurësi Castle & Ksamil Day Trip
Day Trip Details
At the designated time, we'll pick you up at your hotel in Tirana to start this exciting day trip to the city of Sarandë, where you'll discover the Blue Eye water spring and the Lëkurësi Castle.
After approximately 3 hours of traveling, we'll reach our first destination: the Blue Eye water spring, one of the most spectacular landscapes in Albania, declared a World Heritage Site. In this impressive turquoise-blue freshwater spring, you'll have 2 hours of free time for you to take a refreshing dip if you're up for it. Jump in!
Afterward, we'll take you to one of the beaches of Ksamil, popularly known as the Caribbean of Europe, a lovely town of dream-like paradisiac coves with fine sand. Here, you'll have 2 hours of free time to try a dish of tasty Albanian cuisine and swim in the Ionian Sea.
We'll regroup and continue our tour toward the last destination on our day trip, the Lëkurësi Castle. We'll step inside this ancient fortress perched atop a hill overlooking the city. Here, you'll explore its interior while we share its history since it was built in 1537. Given its location, you'll also have the chance to admire a stunning scenic view of the city contrasting with the sea.
Finally, we'll return to the starting point, where we'll say our goodbyes after a total of 11 hours.
