    We will leave the Site of Apollonia and head toward Central South Albania to the City of Many Windows, Berat. Part of the UNESCO World Heritage since 2008, Berat is an important city even today with more than 20 centuries of History. Surprisingly life has never been stoped throughout History and today, the Castle or “Kalaja” is the oldest neighborhood of the City.

    During the 17th and 18th Century Berat was one of the most important cities in Albania and it also attracted citizens from all over the country to create settlements around the city. In this way, Gorica was created mainly as a merchant quarter especially with citizens from Voskopoja of South East of Albania. The white color of the city and the style were preserved creating in this way a city with two similar faces on 2 sides of Osumi river, connected through the Stone Bridge of Gorica.

    Mangalem is probably the most scenic part of Berat. Lied steply in the Hill, just under the castle, it is characterized by a typical Architecture, White walls and many windows seeing the its other copy, Gorica. Mangalem was structured mainly in the Ottoman period and was definitely shaped as today after an earthquake where some parts of the city were destroyed.

Apollonia and Berat are both worthwhile to visit in a one day tour from Tirana. Our guide, Julio, was very knowledgeable, personable, and kind. As we walked through the archaeological park and museum at Apollonia, and the impressive castle at Berat, he provided outstanding commentary. My wife and I learned a lot. We were fortunate to have Julio as the guide on our tour the next day to Shkodra and Kruja, two other fascinating sites. Again Julio made the visit even more memorable, explaining so well the history and culture of his beautiful country.

(My trip was a solo private tour) If you're on the fence about this tour, do it! I did this one and another Butrint, Saranda, and Gjirokastra; they were both outstanding. I'm not usually one to do guided tours, but Go as Local makes them enjoyable and educational. Xhulio - my guide for both trips - was knowledgeable and easy to interact with. As we were driving, he'd answer all of my questions about the history of Albania and the figures who helped shape it. He also pointed out interesting sights along the way to our destination. Albania is a beautiful country - Go as Local helped me appreciate it more than I would have on a standard tour. When I go back, I'll tour with them again.
