Through Albania on E-Bike | Guided E-bike Tour

Start your morning at 8:00 AM with a scenic three-hour drive to the charming village of Grabovica. Once your bikes are perfectly fitted, you’ll pedal through idyllic farmlands and rolling hills, soaking in the stunning scenery. Upon reaching the romantic city of Korça, we’ll treat you to a delicious lunch at a hand-picked local spot. Afterward, check into your hotel right in the heart of the historic Old Bazaar. Take a couple of hours to unwind before joining a local expert for a walking tour, featuring a stop at the fascinating Museum of Medieval Art. We’ll cap off the evening with dinner at the hotel, complete with the enchanting sounds of Korça’s traditional live serenades!

Fuel up with a hearty breakfast before pedaling into some of Albania’s most breathtaking countryside! We’ll first pause at the fascinating Kamenica Tumulus, a massive Bronze Age burial site, before leaving the Korça plains behind. With the majestic Gramoz Mountain towering above, we’ll ride through remote villages along the lush Greek border up to Ersekë, Albania’s highest city! From there, it’s a short ride to Rehovë, a storybook village of cobblestone alleys and historic stone houses. Here, our lovely hosts Valentina and Gjergj will welcome us with a home-cooked traditional lunch and a guided stroll. We’ll cap off this incredible day with an afternoon hike to the Sts. Peter and Paul Church, enjoying a sunset picnic with unforgettable views.

Start your morning with a farm-fresh breakfast prepared by Valentina before hopping on your bike and heading into the mountains toward the breathtaking Gërmenj-Shelegur National Park. Along the way, we’ll pause at the Borova War Memorial to reflect on its poignant WWII history. After conquering the stunning Barmash Pass, we’ll arrive at Farma Sotira, Albania’s pioneering family-owned agro-tourism farm! Here, you can take a quick farm tour, choose between a unique Apitherapy session or horseback riding, and dig into a delicious lunch featuring fresh, farm-raised trout. A short, breezy ride then brings us to the beautifully situated Mezini Hotel. Spend your afternoon kayaking on the tranquil reservoir lake or taking a peaceful stroll, before wrapping up the day with a spectacular lakeside dinner.

After breakfast, saddle up for a ride to Leskovik! We’ll take a break in the central square to explore the newly built Melesin Distillery and learn the secrets behind local Raki and Gin production. Next comes the thrill: a long, spectacular downhill glide leading straight to the mesmerizing Vjosa, Europe’s last wild river. We’ll cruise along its banks to the village of Petran for a heartwarming homemade lunch at a guesthouse run by a sweet local couple. Afterward, treat yourself to a rejuvenating dip in the famous thermal hot springs of Bënjë. Our final stretch takes us to the riverside town of Përmet, famously known as Albania’s cleanest city. We’ll check into the town’s premier hotel and cap off the night with dinner at Familjari Restaurant, a spot steeped in fascinating communist-era history.

After a hearty breakfast, we wave goodbye to Përmet and cruise alongside the Vjosa River straight into the breathtaking Këlcyra canyons. Prepare for a truly unique stop: we’ll visit a small dairy workshop hidden inside an old Italian war bunker! We’ll keep pedaling and pause for a coffee break right next to the cascading Këlcyra waterfalls. Next, we cross an historic Italian bridge over the Vjosa, eventually winding down our cycling route at the lovely Lord Byron Hotel in Tepelenë. Treat yourself to a well-deserved lunch, then head down the steps for a refreshing dip in the Bënça River. After a relaxing afternoon, roll up your sleeves for a fun, hands-on traditional cooking class, where you’ll help prepare the very dishes we’ll feast on for dinner!

Take a well-deserved break from the saddle!

Today is our dedicated rest day, designed purely for relaxation and deep cultural immersion. After breakfast, a quick 35-minute scenic drive brings us to the magical UNESCO World Heritage city of Gjirokastra. We’ll spend the morning stepping back in time with guided tours of the imposing hilltop Fortress and the beautifully preserved Skënduli House. Following a mouth-watering lunch of authentic Albanian cuisine, the afternoon is yours to simply unwind and recharge at the hotel. As the sun begins to set, we’ll wander through the vibrant cobblestones of the old bazaar. Here, you’ll meet Viktor, a master woodworker keeping traditional restoration alive, and experience the unique “stone coffee” ritual right on the streets. We’ll wrap up this perfect day with dinner at a traditional restaurant offering breathtaking views of the illuminated city.

For our final day in the saddle, we kick things off with a quick 5km transfer out of Gjirokastra before pedaling south to the fascinating Hadrianopolis Archaeological Park, home to Roman ruins dating back to the 4th century B.C. After a quick trip back in time, we’ll cycle a scenic route to Libohovë to catch our breath beneath the sprawling branches of one of Albania’s largest plane trees—a true Natural Monument! Next, we’ll explore Libohovë Castle before digging into a well-earned traditional lunch. The afternoon ride takes us to the quaint village of Labovë e Kryqit. Here, our lovely hosts at Maria Guesthouse will guide us through the stunning St. Mary’s Church and share a heartwarming traditional welcoming ritual. Still have some fuel left in the tank? Join an optional 30-minute hike up to the ancient hilltop fortress ruins for views you’ll never forget. We’ll celebrate our final evening with a feast at the guesthouse, complete with an optional cooking session to master the delicious culinary secrets of the Lunxhëria region!
