Itinerary
Kalaja e Lëkurësit
30 minsAdmission Ticket IncludedIf you visit Saranda, you should make a stop at Lëkursi Castle. This fortress construction dates back to the 16th century and is in a square with two round towers sitting diagonally. Its tricky position on a hill of about 300 meters in height and its picturesque views of Saranda, the Butrint Lagoon, and even the island of Corfu make this destination a tourist preference. Besides that, inside the fortress, you will find one of the best-known bars and restaurants in Saranda, which also offers the sunset’s most beautiful view.The Blue Eye
2 hoursAdmission Ticket IncludedAlbania’s famous Blue Eye (Syri i kaltër) is a water spring and natural phenomenon that each visitor should witness. A popular tourist attraction, the beautiful light turquoise river stuns with its beauty.You’ll first be enchanted by the surrounding dense forest and the beautiful light blue river that flows through this natural paradise. The Blue Eye is located beneath a small metal balcony that was built so you can get a closer look.The Blue Eye is a water spring with extremely light blue water bubbles in a more than 50-metre deep pool. You’ll be mesmerized by how clear the water is, to the point that you’ll be able to see straight to the bottom.Divers have attempted to descend into the Blue Eye to calculate its actual depth but it’s still unclear how far the mysterious hole really goes. (We have to walk by foot for 30 min to reach the destination so take any bottle of water )Ksamil

From this panoramic point, your guide will introduce the small islands just off the coast of Ksamil, explaining their formation, history, and local stories. It’s the perfect moment to relax, take photos, and appreciate one of the most beautiful coastal landscapes in southern Albania.Butrint National Park
2 hoursAdmission Ticket Not IncludedButrint is an important UNESCO site in Albania which is also incredibly popular. It’s one of the biggest and best places to see while on your holiday to Albania. If you’re staying in the nearby city of Saranda, or maybe even closer in Ksamil , then you simply cannot leave without making a stop here! Within Butrint National Park you will see very well-preserved ancient buildings, such as the Butrint theatre which seats over 2500 people. It is still used today from time to time for events. There’s also the Temple of Asclepius as well as an Acropolis, columns, a beautiful floor mosaic (includes medallions of 69 churches), a 6th-century basilica, Lions gate and even a Castle. These Butrint ruins will provide you with an incredible view of Lake Butrint, Butrint beach and the surroundings. You will see when wandering around Butrint National Park that some of the buildings are still deep underground. Some locals believe that Butrint was actually the sunken city of Atlantis.
