Albania: City Tour with Wine Tasting｜Albania

Begin your tour in the Mangalem quarter, where the steep, cobblestone streets offer an intimate view of traditional life. Make your way upward to the citadel, which has been continuously inhabited since the 4th century BC.

Within the fortress walls, discover a living museum of 13th-century Byzantine churches and Ottoman-era mosques, illustrating the religious pluralism that has defined the region for generations.

Beyond its stone architecture, Berat is the heart of Albania’s burgeoning wine culture. The region’s viticulture dates back to antiquity, thriving in the fertile Osum River valley.

Enjoy a "Castle Wine Escape" and pair the historical gravity of the Kala with the indigenous Puls grape, a rare varietal native to the Berat area. As you descend from the fortress, visit local wineries and enjoy tastings that emphasize the terroir of the Balkan landscape, bridging the gap between the ancient Ottoman heritage and modern viticultural excellence.
