Antonio was really knowledgeable and showed everything to us. I recommend you to do this tour if your in Tirana. I went in February 2024 it was not peak season for tourists so it was very nice and peaceful.

Thought this tour was nice. The museum at the castle was very busy but I felt like we got a lot of good information. Overall the guide was good and I really enjoyed the time in the market.
