    · February 10th, 2025
    A great experience with amazing and knowledgable guides! Markel and Brikena were warm and welcoming, with lots of information and introduced us to some great food. We got to experience local spots in areas that we would otherwise not know of - and were further able to enjoy the bazaar and a glass of raki. I would recommend this tour to anyone visiting Tirana for a day, and highly commend the Choose Balkan's team and their guides for their commitment to great service. Thank you!

    I had an absolute blast on my food-walking tour of Tirana. Besides getting to taste local street food like Byrek (an absolute must), we also learned plenty of history while walking through the different neighbourhoods of the city. Our guides, Markel and Brikena, were extremely knowledgeable and answered any questions we had throughout. You will not leave hungry and the Raki was the perfect finishing touch.
