This tour offers an enchanting exploration of the city, featuring visits to the medieval Bazaar, the renowned Argjiro Castle, and the well-preserved Zekate House. The journey begins at Cerciz Topulli Square with a knowledgeable local guide, proceeding to the Old Bazaar.

Positioned 330 meters above sea level, visitors can enjoy stunning views of Gjirokastra, with its characteristic tower houses clad in grey stone, typically two or three stories high.
