Albania may not be known for its cuisine, but we can recommend the Sarajet restaurant in Tirana, not only for the venue but for the food. Housed in a characterful family home, the food served here keeps Albanians and foreign visitors alike coming back for more. Make sure you book, especially if you want to dine on the charming open-air terrace.

Tirana is the perfect choice for city break with a difference! Once a bustling Ottoman settlement, then a drab communist backwater, today Tirana bustles with vitality once more. Chic boutiques, family-run eateries, Turkish bazaars, well-stocked galleries and freshly restored mosques vie for the visitor’s attention.

The Blloku, or Block area, has become Tirana's hippest and most vibrant district. Filled with cafes, restaurants, bars, and nightclubs, it is the place to see and be seen. During the day espresso is the drink of choice, a legacy of Albania's close relationship with Italy and long Mediterranean summers mean lazy, heat-hazed evenings spend supping local wine and grazing on juicy olives.

All our Tirana city break prices include 3 nights accommodation with breakfast, return flights in economy class and all airport taxes.
