Join us for a guided tour to Kruja, a historic city just an hour away from Tirana. During this tour, you'll visit key attractions like Kruja Castle, the Skanderbeg Museum, the Old Bazaar, and the peaceful Sari Salltik Mountain.

We’ll start by picking you up from your hotel and taking a scenic drive to Kruja. After about an hour, we’ll reach the city and begin our tour at Kruja Castle. This ancient fortress is home to the Skanderbeg Museum, dedicated to Albania’s national hero, Skanderbeg, who led the fight against the Ottomans in the 15th century. Inside the castle, you’ll see replicas of Skanderbeg’s helmet and sword, along with family crests and other historical artifacts.

Next, we’ll visit the Ethnographic Museum, set in a beautifully restored Ottoman-era house. This museum offers a look into daily life in Kruja during the Ottoman period, showcasing traditional clothing, tools, and household items.

Afterward, we’ll head to the Old Bazaar, a lively market filled with local crafts. You can browse for unique souvenirs like handwoven rugs, silver jewelry, and pottery.

To end the tour, we’ll take a scenic drive up to Sari Salltik Mountain, where you’ll visit a peaceful cave at 1,176 meters above sea level. From here, you’ll enjoy stunning panoramic views of the surrounding landscape. Sometimes, religious ceremonies take place at the cave, though this is rare. If you’d prefer to avoid this, please let your guide know before the tour.

After the visit to Sari Salltik, we’ll return to Tirana.
