Tirana is a blessed city, having the Dajti mountain in the east and the sea in the west in the same distance from its center. Especially during the summer all the people of Tirana go to Durres every day to enjoy the sun and sea. But the day trip to Durres is also a cultural tour.
Durres is one of the oldest towns in Albania and the first and perhaps the most important of the Greek colonies in the country. It was founded at Epidamnus in 627 BC by Greeks from Corcyra (present-day Corfu) and Corinth. Greek and Roman authors called it "the Admirable City" for its temples, statues, and other monuments. However, only a few remains remind us of this city's glory days, mainly due to earthquakes and, also the fact that Durres has been continuously inhabited throughout time. Therefore it has been transformed accordingly.
You will visit some of the remains such as the amphitheatre, the forum, the archeological museum, the Venetian tower and the outer walls. We have refreshments at a panoramic bar before we return to Tirana. If you want to enjoy a fish lunch in Durres, we have some suggestions. Tropical Resort is our choice.
