First rate tour. Absolutely impressive. - I'd read great things about this tour, and I'd wholeheartedly agree with all of them. Aurora was a fabulous guide. Knowledgeable, entertaining, funny, and ready to answer any questions that anybody had. Whether when the whole group were together or when we were on the stroll.
It was a great introduction to the history of Albania, the language, culture, politics and Tirana itself. I'd done a lot of reading before coming, and the amount of information she packed into two hours was truly impressive. And, she did it in a natural and engaging way. You could see her love for the city and her country shining through.
We covered all the major sites in two hours, and if it wasn't possible to do so, Aurora gave detailed instructions as to how you would get to them, how much it would cost, where to go from, how long it would take and cost, when not to go etc. Her attention to detail and delivery was spot on.
I've not been so well recently, and was fairly tired throughout the tour. But, as both a historian and current teacher of EFL, I can only say that she absolutely delivered. The group applauded at the end. Quite right too !
Well done. I'll be back to discover more of Albania for sure.

Must do tour for every visitor to Tirana, Albania. Lasts for 2 hours, but memories will last for lifetime. - The tour was very nice, evenly paced out and quite informative. Tour guide Miss Aurora was very good and her enthusiasm was infectious.

Very Informative tour - An excellent tour showing the main places of interest in the city centre, and recommendations given on other places to visit, restaurants etc. The tour lasted just over 2 hours.
Our guide was Eri, who was great. Lots of information on the history of Albania and some insights on how the fall of communism had affected his family.
Would definitely recommend to any visitor to Tirana

Time well spent getting to know Tirana - We were given an excellent tour of Tirana by Aurora. We covered some key locations, were given a comprehensive history lesson, and learnt many interesting facts about the city and Albania in general. Aurora was knowledgeable, entertaining, witty, and always willing to answer questions and provide further insight. The pace was suitable for all ages, and the walking terrain was flat. All in all two hours well spent.
