The Albanian Riviera is a place where the sun stretches across the deep sea, where there are splendid configurations of rocky and isolated beaches and the mountains and hillsides are covered in Mediterranean vegetation with charming villages constructed between the mountains and the see. It is easy to distinguish the seas apart from one another thanks to their different characteristics. Embark on an exploration of the arresting architecture of Ali Pasha’s castle, the submarine tunnel of Port Palermo, one of the greatest projects of the Communist Regime or the 3000 thousand year old castle town of Himara, conveniently located just 15 minutes away from the center of Himara.

We booked a private tour with Miltos and loved it! We wanted to get to know the surroundings around Himare better and not drive quite as far, but still get to know the monuments and the coast better. The tour was the perfect mix of culture, history, beautiful coves and mountain landscapes. Miltos was very reliable, punctual, accommodating and informed us about everything excellently. He was also very flexible and responded to our wishes. We can more than recommend the tour!

My girlfriend and I really wanted to take a break and enjoy a nice trip so we contacted Milto and decided to explore old Himare. I can say this was a perfect decision and we enjoyed it to the maximum. Everything was great starting with the view, the tour guide, the price and everything you can imagine. Definitely recommended.

The guides are very knowledgeable and always answer questions. They are so kind and willing to share their experience. I especially like the cultural tours - like at the Himara Castle - where guides share the rich cultural history of the region.

Your personal tour guide
Meet Miltos
Hello, I’m Miltos, founder of Experience Himara, born and raised in the picturesque coastal town of Himara in southern Albania. From an early age, I’ve been deeply connected to the region’s natural beauty, rich traditions, and layered history.

Over the years, I’ve explored every corner of Himara—often on solo adventures—gathering a wealth of meaningful experiences that I now share with my guests. With more than 10 years of guiding experience, I specialize in relaxed, storytelling-led tours that go far beyond the typical routes. Together, we’ll discover hidden spots, off-the-map trails, and authentic local life that most visitors never encounter.

Many of the stories I share were passed down from my grandfather, who dedicated himself to preserving the voices and memories of our community. Through these stories, I aim to give you a deeper, more personal connection to Himara.

Every tour I create is fully tailored. Your experience is shaped around what you enjoy—where you want to go, what you want to taste, and how you want to explore. Think of me as your local guide and concierge, but also someone who genuinely enjoys connecting people with the true spirit of this place.
