Everything travelers ask before booking a tour in Tirana
Clear answers about our free tours, paid experiences, logistics, and what to expect when you walk with us.
The free walking tour is free to book. It runs on a tips-based model — guests tip their guide at the end based on the quality of the experience. This keeps tours accessible while rewarding great guiding.

The communist-era tour passes by BunkArt 2 and covers its history from the outside. Entry to the museum is not included, but your guide can help you plan a visit on your own before or after the tour.
Yes! The food tour is also a walking tour, so you'll pass through key areas of the city, visit local markets, and stop at restaurants and street food spots while learning about Tirana along the way.
Our tours are at a comfortable, relaxed pace with plenty of stops along the way. You can expect around 3–4 km of walking over 2–3 hours. Comfortable shoes are recommended, but the terrain is mostly flat.
Free tours have no cost to cancel. For paid tours, you can cancel up to 24 hours in advance for a full refund. If you're unable to make it, just let us know and we'll help you reschedule.
Tours run rain or shine — Tirana is walkable in most weather. We recommend bringing an umbrella or raincoat just in case. In extreme weather, we'll contact booked guests to reschedule.
Tipping is entirely up to you. Most guests tip between €5–€15 per person, but the amount reflects whatever the experience was worth to you. There is no obligation or minimum.
