Overview

Gjakova is a city very rich in culture, heritage and history and is one the most visited cities in Kosovo, offering to the visitors a unique experience. The walking and sightseeing through the beautiful streets of Gjakova, museums, old stone houses, the hypnotic vibes of historic cobblestone paved streets of the old Grand Bazaar and the general relaxed ambience of the area are cherished and appreciated by everyone who visits here. Valbona valley (north Albania, only 1h 20min drive from Gjakova), with its mountainous terrain, alpine landscapes, glacial springs, deep depressions, various rock formations, waterfalls, and with very remote areas which have a large preserved ecosystem all of which is primarily untouched with pure quality, is the centrepiece of what has been referred to as the Albanian Miracle of the Alps. This Tour will give you the best opportunity to explore the History & Culture and by ending it with an Adventure.
