“This cooking class was truly one of the highlights of my trip to Tirana! Sindi is not only an incredibly knowledgeable host, but also warm, welcoming, and full of heart. From the moment you arrive, you're immersed in Albanian culture—learning traditional recipes, hearing local stories, and preparing an absolute feast together. Every dish was delicious, and the experience left me with a happy stomach and an even fuller heart. If you're in Tirana, don’t miss this—it's an easy 1,000,000/10. I recommend it to absolutely everyone!”

“Even though it rained throughout, this tour with Brikena was a delight. I believe that food is a window into a culture and with Brikena’s insight and personal stories of her grandmother and mothers cooking, this proved to be correct in Tirana. A really educational and tasty tour. Highly recommend.”

“I've been on a few food tours but this was one of the best. I take a food tours because I want to get an insight into the local culture. Our guide understood this and shared a lot about life in Albania and the journey from communism. The food was also great.”

“Such an exciting way to spend an evening and getting to taste so many authentic dishes! It surpassed my expectations and was fun to try some cooking, which I don’t do much for myself. If you have a free evening in Tirana, do this class!”

“We had a great time! It was just us and another couple and it was perfect (think the vibe was also influenced by them!) the guide was knowledgable and very nice! Overall lovely experience, mussels were tasty too”

“The driver picked us up from Tirana, but we waited for almost an hour because he blamed the traffic jam. I believe better planning could have avoided this delay. During the trip, he only talked about himself and his favorite cars instead of discussing the country and its history—or he could have simply been quiet. While driving, he constantly checked his phone and watched YouTube for music, which was very dangerous. Then, at the winery, he introduced us to an unprofessional guide who spoke for barely 10 minutes about the winery's history and production process. I expected more: a demonstration of wine tasting, how to appreciate different wine aromas, and…”

“Wasn’t was we expected. however had an amazing time. The chef and kitchen had made the experience incredible. The food was fantastic! The kitchen itself is a working Resutrant kitchen which made the experience even cooler. Elma is an incredible operator who is incredibly response to any questions you may have. Would recommend.”

“The excursion worked well. I was alone with a nice and talkative guide and the winery was pitoresque. Driving there was ok and the host at the winery was wonderful. Be careful when booking though. Viator displayed the currency in PLN (Poland) instead of ALL (Albania). So the excursion was another price than I thought since I did not notice the wrong currency when booking...”

“Kruja Bazaar and the castle was full of history and the atmosphere and architecture is well maintained. City of Durres is beautiful. Mix of modern and old architectures. The Amphitheatre is still somewhat buried, and new buildings are built over it, but what is shown is impressive. Mimoza, my guide is very knowledgeable and goes into very precise detail of each topic. Highly recommend.”

“Great guide! Super interesting journey into Tirana’s impressive communist era-bunker. Lots of details about this heavy period of history”

“Trip of four Adults was going well with Rando as the tour guide. My dad fell going down a hill and was rushed to the hospital. Dislocated shoulder head wounds etc. This was half way through the tour. Rando went out of his way to assist at the Hospital due to the language barrier between patient and Doctors. Still waiting for a call from the Tour Operator Company to check on his health. The rest of the group had hoped to go another time to finish the tour - no follow up at all. Phone call / email would have been the right thing to do.”

“We had the privilege of an outstanding private tour guide Zeni through Visit Albania’s trip ‘Outstanding Highlights of Albania: North to South’. He spoke perfect English, was courteous and considerate at all times, was very knowledgeable aRead more”

“A really good day trip from Tirana to see the historical Berat and a sweet family run vineyard. A great informational walking tour of Berat castle by someone that lives in the castle grounds is a nice touch. The winery stop for lunch was amazing, and their wines are divine; I wish I could have bought some back with me! I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Albania.”

“The tour (and guide) were perfect. Very personable, knowledgeable and prompt.”

“It was extremely good value for money and our guide was exceptional. Her knowledge was incredible and she adapted the tour slightly for what we needed. She had some great recommendations and we really had the best morning!”
