This is a great way to learn more about recent and actual history of Tirana. The tour will bring you to fascist and communist public and secret corners of Tirana, to the recently opened Bunk'Art and to some corners of the city center of Tirana that you would not think of visiting on your own. This is a tour of locals, made and guided by locals and will make you feel and understand the tragic and comic side of life in one of the most isolated capitals in the World during approximately 44 years. Life's been hard and sweet under Communism and we'll have great ways to illustrate all that by always telling the truth. Apart from history and art we will also make sure you taste a bit of the local cuisine and products for which Tirana is building up quite a reputation. Our good thing is that we try to involve and get into conversation with locals regarding the past and the present Albania and you will see that this will be enriching your travel experience quite importantly.

I am so thankful for Irvin spending an entire day with me on the Communist tour, I learned so much. Irvin was incredibly accommodating, I saw at least ten different sites and that was on a Sunday! Tirana is an amazing city, I cannot recommend this tour group enough!

It was a guided tour starting in Tirana's outskirts, seeing the prefabricated concrete buildings of the sixties, then we continued to the flea market and to a very interesting conversation with the father of one of the organizers, who told us about his life during the communist regime. That, by itself was worth the trip, but we continued visiting the socialist art gallery and walking down the wide avenues of Tirana. We also saw the statue of the Nation's hero, and got comments of all the sorroundigs, a true abridgment of the communist days. Unfortunately, a monument to the memory of the fallen was closed those days, since that would have been the icing in the cake. As interesting as the monuments and places we saw, was the comments of our guide, very knowledgeable of Albanian affairs, as couldn't be otherwise. His English was also excellent. We only have nice words for Albanian Trip for such an amazing day.

This tour was absoultely fantastic! My guide Ervin was funny, polite, patient and very friendly telling me fascinating stories, showed me sights, museums and even got to eat their local cuisine. History can be too much for me to take in but it was explained simpler so it was easier to understand what it was all about. However, what really touched me was meeting this genuine couple who have lived in the days of the dark past expressing and shared their personal memories without fear. How they made through it really amazes me and to hear it coming from the experience was a true blessing, and I also believe this was an inspiration not to take life for granted by always making the most of what we've got whilst it's still there. Ervin did a magnificent job and we got on so well we had a few (social) beers after! It felt like I was with a friend because he was that brilliant!
