Our professional tour leader will come and pick you up at your hotel in Tirana. Our first destination will be Saranda, considered to be the pearl of the Albanian Riviera, especially during the summer period, when many refer to it as the unofficial capital of Albania. Located in a perfect natural bay of the Ionian Sea with an amazing view of Corfu Island. Saranda is blessed with more than 300 days of sunshine during a year, making it a favourite destination for both local and international tourists. Saranda is known for its rocky beaches, numerous bays, rich flora and fauna, citrus plantations, olive groves and vineyards. The port of Saranda is one of the most important in the southern region of Albania, thus becoming a connecting point with the Mediterranean countries. After exploring the city, have some free time soak up the sun and relax by the rocky and pebble beach of Saranda.
In the afternoon you can have a walk through the promenade of Saranda, by the Ionian Sea enjoying the view, drink a coffee or have an ice cream by the seaside. As the day comes to a close, Saranda treats you to some of the most stunning sunsets you'll ever witness. We will drive towards Lekursi Castle in Saranda, perched on a hill overlooking the city and the Ionian Sea, offering one of the most breathtaking panoramic views in the region. The sky bursts into shades of pink, orange, and purple, casting a magical glow over the sea. Overnight near Albanian Riviera.
