Berat Castle and History - It was a nice trip ,,, berat was a beatiful city ,,, the guide was very kind and make ur trip even better and easier !!!!!!!!

An absolutely exceptional day! - An absolutely exceptional day! (I do not use that term lightly). I was picked up from my AirBnB in Tirana at 8.50am. I had the privilege of being toured by Genti. We spent 2 hours talking about the history and politics of Albania on the drive (in a very comfortable electric car) to Berat. We did a beautiful walking circuit of the town, took some brilliant photos, and then enjoyed a nice cold diet coke each. We then drove up to Berat castle with its stunning views and incredible Byzantine church. One of Genti's friends is the caretaker of the church and he very kindly gave me some more insight into the history of the building which is really quite special, the original frescos are extraordinary. We then walked through the old castle town and concluded with a coffee and small glass of Raki (for me only) overlooking the landscape. We then drove to Belsh Lake, again supplemented by Genti very kindly giving me some more insights into life in Albania, including his memories of the fall of communism in 1991, which I found fascinating. We then hopped on it back to Tirana so I could visit a couple more attractions on my final day. Genuinely, an incredible refreshing day, I probably haven't done it justice with the review. Before my trip, I went through and meticulously researched all the tours from Tirana on Tripadvisor. Let me save you that research time, because you've just found the best day trip from Tirana! (Yes, I didn't go on any others, but let's not get caught up with technicalities).

Story Of Berat - The city , the view , the history ,, we are very suprised about albania ,, its like u have a mixed on contries in just one country ,, amazing view amazing places ,,, and the history of berat castle was beatiful ....

Unmissable - I really enjoyed the tour to Berat. It was great. The views are breathtaking and our guide/driver Alton was awesome. It was really great.

Convenient and Fun Day Trip from Tirana - I did this day tour in October 2023 as a solo traveler. Belsh was quiet and peaceful; Berat was the highlight of the tour. Overall, I would absolutely recommend this day tour. It was a seamless experience; I was picked up from my hotel in the morning and back in Tirana for dinner. Ledi, my tour guide, was charismatic, funny and knowledgeable. Sirma, the organizer, was helpful in organizing the logistics of the tour and my airport transit. Thanks for a wonderful experience.

Great experience with a great restaurant visit - The day trip with Ledi to Berat and the Belsh Lake District was the highlight of our one-week Albania discovery trip. The guide drove my less mobile mother up to Berat Castle, she would never have been able to get there on foot. Big compliments to the tour guide Ledi😘

Best day in Berat! - Our guide Arian was phenomenal- on time, very accommodating, knowledgeable, great English speaking, and kind. We had a great day visiting an interesting castle and the town of Berat. We learned so much more about this wonderful culture and history. Thank you!

Great tour with attentive guide - Great guide, very informative and attentive to our needs and wishes! Took care of us very well and accommodated what we needed without any fuss!

Berat 1001 windows city - Berat is a must see! We really enjoyed our tour with Redon. Amazing experience! He was knowledgeable and explained about history and culture of Albania

A place to visit - This tour was really amazing, this is definitely something to do when you visit Albania :) the view from the Castle and the villages. Our guide, Gjergj, was great ! This experience would not be the same without him. We started the visit in English and then, he switched to French (our mother tongue) to make it easier for us (we did not know that French was also possible, so good to know for the future).
