This 7 day tour aims to present Albanian cities/sites and objects, which fall under UNESCO protection. Albania counts several cities and objects that are part of our cultural heritage, so the value of this particular tour is of great cultural and archaeological importance. During the 7 day tour, you will explore the fabulous town of Berat (known as the city of the THOUSAND AND ONE WINDOWS), and Gjirokastra, the stone town that still fanatically fosters the tradition and culture of the country. You will also explore the ancient city of Butrint, which was proclaimed a museum in 1961, and in 1992 entered under the protection of UNESCO; The Blue Eye Natural Park; the fascinating old village of Qeparo, and enjoy free time on the lovely Himara beaches. Further on, you visit Përmet (known as the City of Roses), and we'll pass by Tepelena, with a visit of Ali Pasha Tepelena Castle.

We begin the adventure at “Avni Rustemi Square,” at the entrance of the “New Bazaar.” After outlining the route, we’ll cycle out of the city on dedicated bike lanes until the real adventure starts on off-road terrain. This tour reveals a side of Tirana that you won’t see on regular city tours. You’ll experience the genuine hospitality of locals from the very first kilometer. Midway, we’ll enjoy lunch and coffee at an agricultural restaurant, where you’ll taste delicious organic food prepared with love by a local family. Then, we continue the journey through single trails, forests, and perhaps even a few rivers! We end the tour with a relaxing coffee to unwind. Note: The route is 30% asphalt, 50% off-road, and 20% single trails. You should have a medium level of mountain biking experience and be in good health. We provide first aid assistance and can arrange hospital care if needed. Last but not least don’t forget to bring your helmet and a big smile!
