Eden’s Tirana Food & Drink Tour

What an exceptional foodie and cultural experience. I might have been one of the first few travellers who booked this amazing foodie experience. From the moment I entered Martin's home I was greeted with warm smiles and hugs and from there night got better and better. The table was filled with more delicious food all prepared by the loving hands of his mother. The wine and rakia flowed as did the conversations ranging from their lived Albania experiences/history to travel and everything in between. His 2 boys are so sweet and gentle and his beautiful mother and wife were so loving I felt like family. The different local dishes, again all prepared by the loving hands of his mother, were exceptional and were plentiful. Watching his boys chow-down their favorite dishes was a thrill. Every moment from the moment Martin picked me up and until he dropped me off (it was pouring rain the entire time) was filled with more love and friendship words could ever describe. I left stuffed with delicious food and more importantly, a heart full of love. Treat yourself to an amazing food and cultural experience and book.

We originally engaged Martin to drive us between our 4 locations on our 2 week trip. He looked after us so we'll and was so friendly & engaging that we booked onto his food and drink tour of Tirana. We visited some "off the tourist trail" locations which we wouldn't have found on our own. Some delicious food and wine, and of course plenty of raki! A memorable experience and an undoubted highlight of our trip. Thanks Martin for making our last night of our Albania trip so special.

3 most wonderful trips and they were all amazing. Martin was so easy to communicate with and he left no detail uncovered. Hard, too hard, to pick a favorite as all of the recommendations and visits were great. This place though, Mrizi i Zanave , truly magical. Thank you!!

Very professional yet super approachable and friendly guide, interesting program across Albania with delicious wine and food tastings in nice restaurants and wine yards in different locations each day.

The tour (and guide) were perfect. Very personable, knowledgeable and prompt. After hiring Martin as a driver, we quickly decided that we would be interested in a food tour as well, so decided to hire him to guide us. Not only did he take us to some places and things we had been wanting to see, he took us to some places that we didn’t know we wanted to see, and that’s exactly what you want out of a tour guide, local expertise to unearth things you never knew you wanted. He even told us about the history of the places we were passing as we passed them, effectively giving us a history tour as well. What more could a tourist want?

We have a wonderful food tour in Tirana with Martini of the local foods. He also sharing us with Albania history and culture. We feel very comfortable him as our tour guide and driver from Lake Ohrid to Tirana. 👍🏻😊

We met Martini earlier in the morning at Lake Ohrid, where he was supposed to pick us up and take us to Saranda. As we stayed on the hillside with narrow pebbles, he rushed to help us with our luggage. Along the way, he took the initiative to show us picturesque viewpoints and recommended a lesser-known restaurant for our first taste of authentic Albanian cuisine. Even when we reached Saranda, he made sure we checked into our apartment before leaving for Tirana, despite the late hour. From our conversations, we learned he is a foodie and offers food walking tours. We decided to book him for a private Tirana Food Walking Tour on New Year’s Eve. His generosity, knowledge, and care made our tour unforgettable. We highly recommend him for transport and private tours!

We hv a wonderful food tour in Tirana with Martini and he also sharing us Albania history and culture We feel comfortable him 😊

Martin was our driver on private transfer from Lake Ohrid to Saranda. He has humour and informative. We can get along very well with him throughout the 6 hours journey. He speaks very good English and has no problem with communication. I really appreciate his concerned when with have some problem finding our booked accommodation. He stayed with us until our accommodation is sorted out. So when we were in Tirana, we decided to engaged him on a Food & Walking tour. We have another day of great history, culture and awesome food with him I highly reccommend him. Very informative.

We have a wonderful time with Martin this morning, sharing history and story telling of Tirana during our walk. We are foodies and thank you very much Martin, for the great and yummy street food. Will be our most memorable new year eve experience.
