Frequently Asked Questions

Is a food tour in Tirana worth it?

Absolutely! There’s no better way to experience the beautiful city of Tirana and its culture than a food tour with a local guide.

What is the most famous food in Tirana?

With so many delicious options in Tirana, choosing a favorite can be a challenge. Both locals and visitors enjoy the city’s vibrant culinary scene, featuring fresh seafood from nearby coasts, as well as traditional Albanian dishes like hearty stews, grilled meats, and freshly baked bread. Tirana is also known for its artisan cheeses, seasonal farm-fresh produce, and cozy bakeries offering local pastries and sweets.

Are tourists welcome in Tirana?

Yes, absolutely. There’s an Tirana tradition, the passeggiata—the gentle evening stroll to see and be seen. It’s about enjoying the city’s beauty at a relaxed pace, and it’s a feeling we believe every visitor should experience in Tirana.

You’ll find the spirit of the passeggiata from locals when you connect with the city respectfully. It’s found when you support the family-run trattorias in Trastevere, help keep the ancient fountains pristine, and learn to navigate the beautiful, organised chaos of daily life. This is the authentic Tirana experience.

It’s this connection we create on our Eating Europe tours. We step away from the crowds and take you to the places locals truly love, introducing you to the people behind the food and the stories that make this city one of a kind.

Do the tours accommodate vegetarian or gluten-free diets?
