Amazing Kruja tour from Tirana - Everything was just great. We didn’t have to pay anything more. The trip started at 9AM in Tirana and we came back at 3:30PM, we saw everything and had 2 hours of free time in the castle area. It’s perfect for people interested in Albanian culture and history. There were around 30 people, which is i think an ideal amount. Our guide was Paula and she was amazing, one could tell she’s really interested in what she’s doing and she even gave us some fun facts.

Great day trip to Kruja castle - I recently went to visit Kruja castle with my daughter. The instructions were clearly communicated the day before the trip and the guide Ervin was marvellous. He is very knowledgeable and calm. FIrstly we went to visit the Sarisaltik temple and this was very interesting. Then wee proceeded to Kruja castle. It is a very beatiful spot. We then had some free time and we had lunch in a beautiful restaurant within the castle and then we visited the Skodenberg museum. Finally we had a quick walk through the bazar and bought some souvenirs. It was a very enjoyable day and Ervin was very good at giving information and also had very good jokes! I recommend this trip to anyone as it was very well worth the money!
