I am passionate about sharing my knowledge of the city, its culture, its history and delicious food with you. Whether you're interested in historical landmarks or off-the-beaten-path destinations, I am flexible and happy to customize your tour.

However, as a local resident with deep roots in the city, my tour is designed to foster cultural exchange and provide insights into various aspects such as general knowledge, cultural practices, and nature. Furthermore, I'm happy to adapt the tour to include an exciting road trip through canyons and/or mountains if that's your preference.

While "Visit Berat" may seem like a large company, it is actually a one-man project that started in 2012 as a gift to the city. To generate some income, I am now offering free tour guides. By booking my services, you are supporting a small local family.
