Fantastic 3-Day UNESCO Tour of Albania! This 3-day UNESCO tour with Local Friends Albania was an incredible experience! It was perfectly planned to showcase the country’s rich history and cultural treasures. We visited Berat, Gjirokastra, and Butrint—each a UNESCO World Heritage site with its own unique charm. The guides were extremely knowledgeable, providing fascinating stories about Albania’s past, architecture, and traditions. I loved how the tour balanced history and local life, with opportunities to enjoy authentic food and connect with the culture on a deeper level. Despite being a short tour, it was packed with highlights and felt very immersive. The team was professional, friendly, and ensured everything ran smoothly. If you’re looking to explore Albania’s cultural gems in just a few days, this tour is a must!
