Join us to discover the jewel of the Albanian Riviera on this tour of Saranda, whose history spans a period of more than 2,000 years.

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.

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, which were used to build an early Christian basilica. This monumental complex evolved significantly 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 revered temple in the city.

We'll then continue our tour next to the Lëkurësi Castle, a fortress located on top of a hill, overlooking the coast. This location made it a key fortress during the 16th century when this area 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.
