Discover a different side of Saranda—beyond the beaches.
Join this meaningful and compact tour that combines stunning views, hidden communist-era bunkers, spiritual landmarks, and powerful stories. We begin with a short drive to a panoramic hilltop above Saranda, where you'll enjoy incredible views of the city, the Ionian Sea, and even Corfu through binoculars.
We then explore a secret anti-aircraft base from Albania's communist period, complete with hidden tunnels and artillery sites that reveal the paranoia and control of that era. After a short snack break, we walk to the 6th-century Monastery of the Forty Saints, the sacred place that gave Saranda its name—full of silence, history, and beauty.
The tour ends with a respectful visit to a local mosque, where you'll gain insights into how Islam is practised in modern, secular Albania.
This is not just a tour—it's a journey through time, belief, and landscape.
Small groups, personal guidance, and time to reflect at each stop.
