Beschreibung
Discover Durrës on a guided walk through ancient Roman ruins, historic old town streets, and the vibrant seaside promenade, blending history, culture, and coastal life
Begin your journey in the heart of Durrës, one of Albania’s oldest and most fascinating cities. Meet your guide and set off on a walking tour that combines ancient history, medieval architecture, and the vibrant life of the modern Adriatic coast.
Explore the Roman Amphitheater, one of the largest in the Balkans, dating back to the 2nd century AD. Discover how gladiators entertained crowds, how the arena was structured, and the social significance of Roman public life in Durrës, known then as Dyrrachium.
Walk along the remains of the city’s defensive walls and visit the Venetian Tower, a medieval fortification that tells the story of Durrës’s strategic importance through centuries of conquest, trade, and maritime dominance. Learn how Venetians, Ottomans, and local rulers shaped the city’s architecture and urban planning.
Meander through the narrow lanes and hidden corners of Durrës’s old town. See centuries-old houses, small squares, and local shops where artisans continue traditional crafts. Your guide will point out stories of the city’s inhabitants, illustrating daily life in both historical and modern contexts.
End your journey along the Adriatic coast, where the rhythm of contemporary Durrës comes alive. Watch fishermen at work, enjoy views of the harbor, and see how the city has maintained its historic charm while embracing modernity.
Experience Durrës beyond the obvious tourist sights. From quaint cafés tucked into historic alleys to public squares where locals gather, gain a firsthand understanding of Albanian culture, community life, and traditions.
