Interesting and informative tour - highly recommend - I loved my trip to Tirana and Gloria was the perfect guide. We had a great time walking around, sights were shown with lots of history of Albania and Tirana given. It was a hot day and we stopped for a drink. I had a local beer Korca which Gloria insisted on paying for so I would really like to give 6 stars. Ha ha. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Tirana. A beautiful city with a fascinating history. Thank you Gloria!!!!

Excellent walking tour of Tirana, Albania - Gloria guided me around Tirana, Albany showing me all the interesting sites, focusing on those that were most interesting to me, and explaining Albanian history and what is happening in modern times. Very interesting tour. Exactly what I had hoped to see and hear.

Awesome tour with a very knowledgeable guide - What a great tour. It was just 3 of us in total, so it was like a private tour. The guide was Ilir and he spoke perfect English. He was really into the history of the city and provided an amazing tour. Highly recommended if you're Tirana and want a quick highlight of the city, country and people.

Great voyage to Albanian history in Ilir - The tour was more than excellent! As I was the only guest, it turns into a private one for me. Ilir has deep knowledge on Albanian history and made the walk very entertaining. The national museum was unexpectedly closed that day. In exchange I was offered to have a cake and tea in a cafe nearby, which was acceptable deal. Definitely recommend the tour!
