Apollonia and Zvernec Monastery day tour
Overview
Escape the hustle of the city and spend a peaceful day discovering some of Albania’s most beautiful and culturally rich destinations.
We begin our journey heading south toward the stunning coast of Vlora. Along the way, we stop for a delicious local treat—traditional Albanian byrek . It’s the perfect roadside snack to fuel the adventure ahead.
Our first stop is the breathtaking Narta Lagoon, a peaceful paradise where you can spot flamingos and admire the tranquil landscape. We’ll then cross a wooden bridge to visit Zvernec Monastery, a centuries-old Orthodox site nestled on a small island surrounded by pine trees.
The journey continues to the ancient city of Apollonia, dating back 6th century BC. Explore temples, theatres, and the beautifully preserved monastery-turned-museum, all set against a backdrop of rolling hills and olive groves.
This tour blends nature, history, and local flavors, perfect for travelers who want to experience the authentic soul of Albania .
