On arrival
The tour starts in front of the main entrance of the National Historical Museum, located in Skanderbeg Square in the center of Tirana. You will easily recognize me: I will always have an umbrella with the Italian flag with me. The museum is easily accessible on foot from anywhere in the city center. I recommend arriving at least 10 minutes before the tour starts.
