Recommended - Excellent walking tour around the city seeing the important sights. We went on a very hot day (34 degrees) but it was manageable as we stopped several times in the shade. Our guide was Aurora who was great and answered so many questions !

Excellent - Aurora did very well showing us around. It is clear she has great passion for her country and enjoys sharing this with others. We were impressed by all she had to say and learned a lot of things we did not know about Albania’s culture.

Worth doing - Young lady really knew her history and was great at English considering she was born in Albania. Gave us enough time to see everything and asked any questions, and gave us a good idea of where to go back to for a longer look about. Would recommend this tour, we booked and paid online, as you're only looking at buildings without knowing the actual history of the country.

Must-see tour (Makbule guide - English) - Two and a half hours of history and culture with the local guide, born in Italy but Albanian at heart and family. Makbule made us experience the real Albania of the past, present and future without neglecting any aspect .. cultural, historical and artistic. A well of knowledge but above all of passion and love for the motherland. If the Albania of the future is made up of these young people, the country will have a great future. Tirana has all the attractions enclosed in a few kilometers so this guide helps to quickly deepen all the curiosities. Absolutely not to be missed

Street Art and Modern Architecture - I joined 2 free tours, both guided by Erind. The free walking tour of Tirana was informative and a good introduction to the city. On the other hand, I was pleasantly surprised by the Street Art and Modern Architecture tour and highly recommend it. Erind provided a lot of background information such as the concept behind the building design, use of material etc. For street art, it was not limited to large murals. We were shown art installation, stickers, street signs etc. Details were pointed out and explained. Erind also showed us the artists' IG to discuss their styles and concepts. He answered our questions patiently. One can tell that he is passionate about the subject. The tour let me understand another layer of Tirana.
