Description

Take a private full-day trip to Prizren to get to know its local history, rich traditions, and unique architecture. Visit Prizren Fortress, Sinan Pasha Mosque, the House of League, and more.
Discover Prizren on a full-day trip from Tirana. Take a walking tour of the city's fortress, admire the Sinan Pasha Mosque, learn some political history at the House of the League of Prizren, and see the UNESCO-protected Church of Our Lady of Ljeviš.
Get picked up by your guide and driver at your hotel. Head towards the Morina border and along the way, spot the differences in rural life in Albania. Still vivid are the footprints of the Communist regime and the former industrial cities build during that period.

Arrive in Prizren and visit the first attraction, the fortress of Prizren. From the fortress see picturesque views of the city. Be charmed by the numerous mosques and minarets fused with the churches, houses, and Turkish baths creating a unique city skyline.
Make your way to Sinan Pasha Mosque. Still functional even today, let this mosque amaze you with its elegant decor and interesting shape. Appreciate its restoration and preservation as one of the most important religious and cultural places in Prizren.
From culture to politics, go to the House of League, an important meeting place of Albanian patriots in the 19th century. Then go to the ethnographic museum and learn about the traditional local life of Kosovo.

Your last stop in Prizren is the Church of Our Lady of Ljeviš. Currently closed for renovation, this 14th-century church has a diverse history serving as both a church and mosque. Be impressed by its distinct architecture from the outside.
During the day, have free time for lunch and shopping before returning to Tirana.
