Upon arrival at the winery, we will be warmly welcomed by our passionate host. This region is known for the warm hospitality of local winemakers, who take pride in sharing their unique wines and winemaking techniques with visitors. We will visit the vineyard, where we will learn about the history of winemaking in Albania and the unique local grape varieties that thrive in the region. The combination of Mediterranean climate and the microclimate of central Albania region create the ideal conditions for grape cultivation, making this a truly privileged location. The region is known to some of the 100 native grape varieties such as: Vlosh, Kallmet, Shesh, Pula, Mjaltëz, and Kryqës.

5.00What a great day! Beautiful winery on the outskirts of Tirana. I was alone so I got very personalized service, from pick-up and drop-off and everything in between. Great wines and snacks with an incredible view!

5.00We had a private tour to the winery with Altin. Our guide provided us with a lot of information about Albanian history, people and mentality. He was extremely informative. We got to learn a lot. The visit of the winery was also great. The owner shared some insights on the process of making wine, it’s history in Albania. Finally we not only tried the wine, but also Raki, limoncello and a lot more things :))) The owner was very nice to offer us way more than it was announced in the program. And we also were served homemade local food (grilled veggies, cheese, onion pie and olives). Everything was veeeery tasty. We had a very good time ! Thank you.
Amazing guide and tour!

5.00Our guide, Altin, was friendly and knowledgeable. The vineyard was quite charming and the wine was excellent (the cheeses were delicious) and the owner was very passionate about his wine and very welcoming. Lovely afternoon not to far from Tirana.
Nice small winery outside Tirana

3.00The excursion worked well. I was alone with a nice and talkative guide and the winery was pitoresque. Driving there was ok and the host at the winery was wonderful. Be careful when booking though. Viator displayed the currency in PLN (Poland) instead of ALL (Albania). So the excursion was another price than I thought since I did not notice the wrong currency when booking...

5.00We don’t normally share reviews but we just had to following our experience to the Vila Shehi Winery for a wine tasting tour. Lovely welcome on arrival to the pick-up point by our driver Altin followed by the journey which included lots of information on Albanian sites and the culture. Altin was excellent and spoke good English and really made the trip a special one. We have been on lots of wine tours including Sonoma, Florence and San Diego and have to say this was the best experience we have had. At the winery we got a tour followed by wine tasting outside in the courtyard and got to try a variety of white, rose and red wines plus an orange wine. The wines were excellent so we bought a bottle of the reserve (our favourite), the rose and a bottle of Raki (we got to try 3 types of Raki too). The wines came with an assortment of cheese, bread and carrots (personal favourite) which went very well with the wine and all ingredients were sourced locally. I can’t share how much we enjoyed this tour enough and would recommend to anyone wanting to go on a wine tasting tour in Tirana. I have no doubt that booking through Choose Balkans and having Altin at the winery helped to make the visit extra special. Thank you Altin and Choose Balkans!
Excellent, locally run wine tour!

4.00Beautiful vineyard on top of the hills surrounding Tirana, called Komomani Winery. Lunch was extraordinarily catered for. Our guide Ervis was a winner!! Very nice to do if you want to get out of town. About 45 minutes drive with some traffic jam.
