The Ali Pasha Bridge is located near the beautiful town of Gjirokastra in Albania. You can easily hike there within 30 minutes and you can be pretty sure not to meet any other tourists.
The bridge was part of a larger aqueduct complex commissiones in the early 19th century by Ali Pasha of Tepelenë. Tje aqueducts fed the castle's cisterns with water from the Mount Sopot. Gjirokastra didn't have water at this time and Alia Pasha discerned the need of this structure.
The aqueduct was mostly destroyed in 1932, but this section remains.

"The apartment was great for us to base our adventures in the south of Albania! Location is outside of the downtown area so theres peace and quiet. The staff were so friendly and went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and happy. I would come back for sure. "

Hospitable family and amazing hotel

"Sunway hotel is run by a family who you will see on the premises. Mom cooks breakfast (a large buffet with Albanian delicacies and also European meals), the daughter and son are receptionists. No matter what your question will be, they will be able to help you make your stay an unforgettable one in Ksamil. I chatted with them as if they were long time friends, sharing family stories and what I did during my day. They shared stories of their own and gave me some great recommendations on my stay. It doesn’t surprise me that there are guests that are regulars for years! If I lived closer to Albania, I would also be back in a yearly basis! "

Five day trip to Saranda

"Just returned from an amazing break at Vila Kalcuni. This is a beautiful hotel, located in a lovely part of town, only a few minutes walk from the ferry terminal, bars, restaurants and shops. It’s positioned on a private beach with stunning views of the bay. Vila Kalcuni is a real retreat set in lovely surroundings. The pool and bar area is very new and is immaculate. In fact the entire hotel is spotless and extremely well maintained. Probably one of the cleanest hotels I’ve ever stayed at ! The room was very comfortable with amazing views from the balcony. Breakfast was very good, fresh and plentiful and is served in a lovely restaurant. The manager and staff team are so friendly and welcoming, they work tirelessly and want to ensure that your stay is going well. Would fully recommend staying here and can’t wait to return."
