Hoogtepunten

Travel back in time with this fantastic trip to the beautiful town of Kruje from Tirana. You will visit its famous castle and stroll through its enchanting medieval bazaar. Kruja is a small town perched high on the face of a hill considered “the Adriatic Sea’s Balcony”, because of its altidute above mean sea level (approximately 1000 m). Kruja was the centre of 15th century Albanian resistance to the Ottomans under the leadership of national hero Gjerg Kastrioti “Skanderbeg”. Visit the unique Skanderbeg Museum inside the restored castle and the Ethnographical Museum. The street leading up to the castle is built in the style of a Turkish bazaar; we can stroll along the old bazaar which has a wonderful selection of authentic antiques and souvenirs.
