描述
Explore the UNESCO-listed city of Gjirokastër and the Blue Eye spring on a day trip from Vlore. Visit Gjirokastër Castle, the Old Bazaar, and a traditional Ottoman-era house.
Begin your day with a pickup from your hotel in Vlore. Sit back and relax as you head south through rolling hills, olive groves, and charming villages toward Albania’s historical heartland.
Arrive in Gjirokastër, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Step into Albania’s living history in the city of Gjirokastër, also known as the “City of Stone.” Nestled on a hillside, this beautifully preserved town is a unique blend of history, culture, and architecture.
Visit Gjirokastër Castle, one of the largest fortresses in the Balkans, featuring panoramic views of the Drino Valley and a rich collection of historical weapons. Explore the Old Bazaar, with cobblestone streets filled with traditional artisan shops, handmade crafts, and souvenirs. See Skenduli House (or Zekate House), a well-preserved Ottoman-era tower house showcasing traditional Albanian domestic life.
Enjoy free time for coffee, photo ops, or shopping in the Old Town. Then, take a scenic 45-minute drive to one of Albania’s most mesmerizing natural sites, the Blue Eye (Syri i Kaltër).
Welcome to Syri i Kaltër, a deep natural spring where icy blue water bubbles up from over 50 meters below the surface. Surrounded by lush forest, it’s a perfect spot for nature lovers, photographers, and adventurers. Take a short shaded walk to the viewpoint and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere and take incredible photos.
On the way back, you may choose to stop at a family-run traditional restaurant offering authentic Albanian cuisine (additional cost). Finally, enjoy the scenic return drive through the hills of southern Albania and get dropped off at your accommodation in Vlore.
