Overview

Tirana is one of the most interesting cities in the Balkan Peninsula thanks to its fascinating history. The town was nominated capital of Albania only in 1920, and, before that year, it was nothing more than a large hamlet. From 1944 to 1990, Tirana (and the rest of Albania) suffered a period of isolation during the Communist regime. Still today, traces of this historical period can be found in different areas of Tirana.

We will also use cable car to enjoy the view of the whole city from an altitude of over 1000 meters above sea level on Dajti Mountain.

To discover more, follow our guide to find the best of Tirana’s communist landmarks and impresive nature of Dajti Mountain.
