Description

After we meet at Wave Bridge ( Ura e Varur opposite the Mosque of Singles), the presentation is followed by a description of the bridge of Gorica and the two historical neighborhoods of Mangalem and Gorica.

Then we walk down an alley in the Mangalem neighborhood and come out to Pasha's Gate or Pasha's Palaces, where you will hear about the construction of Ahmet Kurt Pasha's palaces and everything about using his palace.

We will visit the King's Mosque or the Mosque of Bayezid II and the Helvetite Temple (Tekke). After finishing the Medieval Center of Berat, we will go to the city center to see the cathedral and the Iron Mosque.

To go to the castle, we need to walk for 15 min to the Castle.
At the castle, we visit Saint Triad Church, the Acropolis, the Red Mosque, and other beautiful places in the castle. Walking, we will go out to Tabia (balcony of the castle), where the view of the city is wonderful for taking photos. The tour ends at the castle; you can come with me or stay for a coffee with an amazing view.

Fabulous introduction to Berat and Albania

Jeta was the perfect guide, providing a varied and consistently interesting guide to Berat but also happy to discuss or answer questions about more general Albanian theme. To be recommended

Walking tour in Berat

Yeta took us around all major parts of the city in a very interesting 2,5 hour walk. She was very passionate and knowledgeable about Berat. She was very open to answer all our questions on the history of Berat and Albania. She even organised a taxi to get us to the castle on top of the hill. I definitely recommend her as a tour guide in order to get a better insight in this wonderful city.
