Join us on this day trip to Saranda and Butrint National Park and enjoy the magical history of Albania! We depart from the main port of Corfu and directly set course to Saranda. After a quick passport control, we will board the bus and leave the port behind.
After a guided bus tour of around 30 minutes, we will arrive at the breathtaking UNESCO World Heritage Site of Butrint. A professional guide will give you a tour through the Venetian tower and the remains of the theatre and Temple of Asclepius. You will also get to explore the ancient gymnasium, the Roman Baths and you will see the gorgeous mosaic of the Baptistery. The tour ends on the Cyclopean walls, where you will have a panoramic view of the lake and its surrounding nature.
Afterwards, we will go back to Saranda for a delicious buffet-style lunch. Here you will also have 1.5 hours of free time to stroll around the city. Late in the afternoon, we will return to the boat and take you back to Corfu.
Smooth process, good guidance, detailed, competent explanation of the excavation site

Super Organisation
Everything, from start to finish, was perfectly planned by Ionian Cruises. Because there was no other option, we had booked with the English-speaking tour group, but were allowed to switch to the German group straight away. If you are planning your journey to the ferry yourself, you should definitely allow enough time to find parking and location. Since it was a bit tight for us, we contacted the organizer and were allowed to get on the ferry through passport control late. Many thanks to Panajotta (Jotta) for your great help. The crossing took about 1 hour. Butrint was absolutely worth seeing, we had the best tour guide ever (Tomasz?). The food in the restaurant was good and the hour and a half of free time was enough for us. Important for Butrint: You have to be good on your feet, don't forget mosquito repellent and wear sturdy shoes. Not suitable for small children. Interesting for teens and older children (ours are 15 and 10).
