Tirana: A Kaleidoscope of colors, life, tradition and history
Hi! My name is Xhuli a licensed tour guide. I have spent about 10 years living and studying abroad and this experience has allowed me to travel extensively as a tourist and has given to me a new appreciation for my country—its culture, history, and traditions. I invite you to see Tirana through the eyes of a local and feel the spirit of a city I deeply love.

I’ll be waiting for you in Skanderbeg Square, between the Skanderbeg Statue and Et’hem Bej Mosque, wearing a black hat that says “Be Guide Be Cool!”
Description
Welcome to Tirana, Albania’s dynamic capital—a city where the echoes of Ottoman rule, Italian elegance, and Communist harshness blend seamlessly with bold urban renewal and creative ambition. This is a place where the past and future aren’t just neighbors—they’re in constant conversation.
As a literature graduate with a passion for storytelling, my goal is to bring the city’s past to life through vivid, engaging narratives. Whether you're into history, culture, or just curious about how this unique city pulses today, I’ll help you see, feel, and truly connect with it. I’ll also share local tips, things to do, and places to eat or unwind - so your journey continues long after the tour ends.
