What To Expect
Kantina E Veres Isak
Kantina e Verës ISAK offers an incredible experience of Albanian hospitality with a quaint and charming vineyard setting. Visitors are treated to a tour of the wine production, and olive oil before tasting raki, fresh vegetables, cheeses etc
The Blue Eye
What makes the Blue Eye so fascinating is that divers have attempted to descend into its turquoise waters to calculate its depth several times without succeeding. Thus, it remains a mystery how deep the Blue Eye is, but the deepest point the divers have reached is 50 m (164 ft) deep. Syri I Kalter (which is Albanian for “Blue Eye”) is a unique place that you should definitely add to your Albanian itinerary.

5.00Nothing beats watching the sun melt into the Ionian Sea from the historic heights of Lekursi Castle — golden light, sea breeze, and panoramic views that leave you speechless.. Also, we savored the flavors of Albanian wine, discovering rich local reds and crisp whites in a cozy Saranda tasting spot. A perfect end to a perfect day!
