Description

Embark on a full-day tour of Kruja and Mount Gamti from Tirana. Visit the Kruja Bazaar, the Kruja Castle, and the Sari Salltik Cave. Enjoy a coffee break at a charming mountainside coffee spot. Start your day with a drive up the mountain with a car until the road comes to an end. Following a 15-minute hike, reach the top of Mount Gamti. Absorb the breathtaking views from the mountain's apex before descending to a charming mountainside coffee spot. Pause to restore your energy with a coffee before resuming your journey towards Kruja. Stop at Kruja's 500-year-old bazaar. The Ottoman-style bazaar stretches all the way from the middle of Krujë to the Krujë Castle. It consists of a single cobblestone street along which all sorts of vendors sell their goods from wooden stalls. The bazaar of Kruja will lead you into the Castle of Kruja. The walls of the castle hold the history of 1500 years of war and peace. Start a walking tour inside the castle, and visit several spots like the Scanderbeg's tree, the secret tunnel of the castle, old residences of the castle, the Mosque of Sultan Mehmet, the watchtower of the castle, and the top of the castle. Before the tour comes to an end, drive up the mountain of Kruja to the very top, where the Sari Salltik cave is found. The cave serves as a religious place for practicing Bektashi religion and it has an ultimate view, seeing Tirana, Kruja, Durres, and the Adriatic sea all together.
