1.Berat city UNESCO tour, the Castle & Belshi lake- From Tirana

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 804 reviews · 9 to 10 hours (approx.) · from $12Our pick

Review of the Berat UNESCO day tour from Tirana, with Belshi Lake, Berat Castle, Gorica Bridge, lunch time, costs, and practical tips.

“Berat is worth a visit. Lovely place and friendly people, but you should better search for an alternative agency. They promise hotel pick up but, once you’ve booked the excursion they indicate a meeting point more than half a km away. Then, you are the last group to be picked, only to find there are only scattered seats available and your party has to split up. We paid the same as any other and we didn’t organize the bus route; it is absolutely unfair we are denied the chance to be together as a group (and the agency was aware this was going to happend as the bus was almost…”

Explore Albania’s Osum Canyon from Berat with guided canyoning, safety gear, lunch, hotel transfers, and scenic local stops.

“Meer dan de helft van de activiteit is reistijd, om half 9 verzamelen uiteindelijk pas om tien voor 12 gaan canyoningen om vervolgens om 2 uur alweer klaar te zijn en pas weer rond half 6 terug in Berat te zijn. Activiteit zelf is echt mega leuk maar niet de moeite waard met al het reizen erbij. Mensen zijn wel aardig en de lunch was ruim voldoende. Was ook een beetje aan de dure kant vind ik voor wat je er uiteindelijk voor krijgt”

5.Osumi Canyons and Bogova Waterfall from Berat – Tour by 1001 Albanian Adventures

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 177 reviews · 5 to 8 hours (approx.) · from $73

Review of the Osumi Canyons and Bogova Waterfall tour from Berat, with swimming, canyon walks, local food, guide tips, and practical advice.

“Our tour began with a short walk from our hotel to the 1001 Albanian Adventures office. When we arrived we saw others getting water shoes from inside the store and my girlfriend asked for some but I was not offered any. However, that did not matter too much in the end (although, definitely would recommend). We departed Berat at roughly 9:10am and started our journey to Bogova Waterfall, we then stopped for coffee in a small town and then took a trip to the top of Osumi Canyon for some spectacular views. Following this, we then came down the canyon and went into it. Before heading into the canyon we…”

Berat Osum Canyon & Bogove Waterfall Tour

6.Berat Osum Canyon & Bogove Waterfall Tour

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 130 reviews · 7 to 8 hours (approx.) · from $71

Review of the Berat Osum Canyon and Bogove Waterfall tour, with swimming, hiking, culture, picnic lunch, price, tips, and practical details.

“This tour was one of the highlights of our trip to Albania! Definitely recommend it if you visit Berat. Our tour guide Ervis picked us up at the hotel and drove us around the main spots while explaining interesting details about the sites and albanian culture. During the hikes we also had time to explore on our own pace, swim in the waterfall and the canyon. It wasn't an intense hiking experience, which we were happy about, as we still drove south to Sarande after the tour. Thank you for the tour!”

Review of Berat Walking Tour: a small-group visit to Berat Castle and Gorica Bridge with local guide Bruno, photos, and practical tips.

“Bruno, a lifelong resident of Berat, was thorough, patient and had thoughtful answers for all our questions. He takes you up to the castle which is also a huge perk (one doesn't want to walk up!) But Bruno knows everyone in town and easily organised a taxi up for us. He sincerely said contact him if we needed any local recommendations or anything and he was responsive and so helpful when we did text him after. It was so welcoming of him to show us his home and his pride and love for his town shines through.”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 55 reviews · 3 to 5 hours (approx.) · from $48

Cook traditional Albanian dishes with Mama Nina inside Berat Castle, sharing family recipes, local stories, and a generous meal for $48.27.

“We would absolutely do it again. My favorite part was the hosts sharing about their lives, learning about a youth under the communist regime, and all the changes that have occurred in the Berat Castle village over time. This isn't a Cordon Bleu class on special cooking techniques for luxury foods. Instead it's an opportunity to learn how real Albanians cook traditional foods in a home setting. Absolutely recommend.”

Lunch with the locals, great experience. I came as a customer and left as a friend! Absolutely recommendable, all around.”
