“A personal and Inspiring Tour of Berat”
We joined the free walking tour yesterday at 5 PM with Bruno, and it was a fantastic experience! The guide was very friendly and shared so many interesting aspects of the city. Bruno himself is from Berat and grew up here, which makes the tour feel very personal and authentic. He took a lot of time to answer all our questions, and the tour was very detailed and extensive. It really allowed us to imagine what life was like here in the past and to experience it up close. Many thanks for this wonderful tour!

“Helpful tour if you are new to the city”
Bruno was very kind but some tourists who had signed up didn't show, which clearly upset the guide and affected the atmosphere. Please don't do it as it is simply not fair for anyone. After the tour, Bruno texted us with some recommendations about where to go in the Osumi Canyon. All those places were breath-taking!

“Very nice interesting tour”
We booked through app only one hour infront. We came from canyon.
We are traveling with a teenager whom i dragged along to more city tours in the country against his will. Only this one he said he quite put some attention on. He said this one is less worse because the guide was making nice jokes. My 13year old actually rememberd a lot from Berat.
For me i can tell you only positive things but when my 13years old said is was interesting...
Be certain it was good then.

“Skillful and nice tour in Berat”
Our guide Bruno was born and raised in Berat. He knows every detail about the city and is truly proud of it. He vividly described how he first hand experienced the almost civil war in 1997, how they changed the name of Enver on the hill (I won’t spoil it here, but it’s really funny) and how the Beratians saved all the Jews in WW2. Bruno keeps telling stories and answers all questions. We highly recommend this tour.

“Tour uncompleted”
We took part from the start and followed with around 15 others the tour through the town. The information provided was usefu and well understandable, it was, however, conventional textbook knowledge.
Bruno tried to keep the big group together which was challenging.
We finally climbed up the road to the castle but we're a bit shocked as the last part was taken as a direct shortcut up the hill on a very steep and bad path.
We took lovely photos from the viewing point before continuing to the next highlight. When this required further climbing we considered this a bit to stressful for a light walking (!) tour and left the group.
Thanks so far anyway. Hopefully all the others enjoyed the trip.

“Pretty bad”
Not our first walking tour and this one was pretty bad. Guide talked a lot but said very little, barely any historical facts. Mostly it seemed like he was trying to be friends with the visitors. Also, you get a mail beforehand that a 10€ tip is expected. Definitely would not recommend.

“First thing you should do in Berat ”
Brunos tour was a great way to start my stay in Berat. I recommend going in the afternoon, because you'll finish the tour with seeing the sunset from the castle.
