Gjirokastra's hilltop castle is one of the biggest in the Balkans and easily the town's best sight, most definitely worth the steep walk up from the Old Town.There's been a fortress here since the 12 th century.

The incredible three-storey house dates from 1811 and has twin towers and a double-arched facade. It's fascinating to nose around the almost totally unchanged interiors of an Ottoman-era home, especially the upstairs galleries, which are the most impressive.

A must is also one visit in Museums of Gjirokastra.

Included in this tour Taxi Tirane -Gjirokaster and Vice Versa and Professional Guide and One night in Hotel****.
