Transfer from Tirana to Prizren (Border crossing to Kosova, - depending on your nationality passports may be needed)
Prizren is considered as the cultural capital of Kosovo, mixing its rich history, incredible nature, religious tolerance and gastronomic delights. Prizren has played an important role in the region as an Illyrian (Albanians of antiquity) settlement and a crossroad for the Roman Byzantine and Turkish Ottoman empires, contributing to the unique architecture of the city. The river flows through the heart of the old town and under the many bridges that crisscross the city. If you're lucky to visit Prizren during August, the medieval city becomes home to one of the most famous short film festivals in the world named Dokufest. The best way to explore the town is by wondering through the streets passing by elegant medieval houses that fight for your attention.
