      What you can expect

      A Tour That Combines Rich Nature, Unique Byzantine Art, Centuries of History, and the Hidden Treasures of Southern Albania

      Join us on a tour departing from Saranda, where you will experience the unique beauty of the Drino Valley, its fascinating history, and charming small villages. Our first stop is Viroi Lake, a breathtaking oasis surrounded by lush nature perfect for a peaceful walk, a morning coffee, and memorable photos.

      We will continue through the Drino Valley, a land rich in flora, fauna, and centuries of history, with plenty of monuments from different eras, before reaching Labova e Kryqit, a picturesque village with cobbled streets and its iconic Byzantine church, one of the best examples and a true treasure of Byzantine art in the region.

      Next, we will visit Libohovë and its majestic castle, perched above the valley with stunning views. In the heart of the town stands a giant ancient Plane Tree, its sprawling canopy leaving every visitor in awe.

      We will return to Saranda via one of the most scenic roads in Albania, passing mountains, valleys, and untouched landscapes a perfect ending to a day full of nature, history, and hidden treasures.
