Begin with a scenic drive to Berat, known as the “City of a Thousand Windows.” Upon arrival, explore the city’s ancient areas, cobblestone streets, and Ottoman-era architecture.
Visit the Berat Castle (Kala), one of the oldest and most beautiful castles in Albania, still inhabited today. Stroll through the historic Gorica and Mangalem Quarters, divided by the Osum River.
Enter the Onufri Museum, housed inside a centuries-old Orthodox church, showcasing icons and religious art. Take time for photos and views overlooking the city and valley.
After immersing yourself in Berat’s cultural treasures, head to a nearby local winery, surrounded by rolling hills and vineyards. Enjoy a guided wine tasting session featuring a selection of Albanian red and white wines, raki (traditional Albanian brandy), and local snacks such as olives, cheese, and fresh bread.
Take a short walk through the vineyard or production area (depending on the winery). Enjoy free time to explore, shop, or enjoy a traditional lunch (optional).
