What you can expect

Begin your journey with a scenic drive from Tirana to Bulqiza, a destination known for its rugged beauty and deep-rooted traditions.

Your first stop is a local horse farm, where you’ll meet your guides and horses before setting off on a relaxing 30-minute ride through nature. Surrounded by fresh air and stunning landscapes, this is the perfect way to connect with the peaceful countryside.

Next, discover an important part of the region’s identity with a guided visit to Bulqiza’s chrome mining area. Learn about its historical and economic significance and how it has shaped local life.

The highlight of your day awaits at a 230-year-old traditional Albanian tower. Still standing strong and preserving centuries-old customs, this “living tower” offers a rare glimpse into the past. Here, you’ll enjoy a delicious homemade lunch prepared with fresh, local ingredients.

As you enjoy the lunch , your host will share stories about the tower’s role in Albanian heritage, offering insight into family life, traditions, and the cultural importance of these unique structures.

After a day of unforgettable experiences, we return back to Tirana, where you’ll be dropped off at the original meeting point.

This experience is ideal for travellers who want more than sightseeing—it’s about connection, culture, and unforgettable moments.
