Annual Christmas Market Tour in Shkodër – A Magical Holiday Tradition

Every year, Shkodër transforms into a sparkling winter wonderland, and our Annual Christmas Market Tour has become one of the city’s most beloved holiday experiences. From early December until Christmas Eve, the historic heart of Shkodër comes alive with glowing lights, festive music, and the irresistible aroma of seasonal treats.

Join us each year for a joyful evening celebration where culture, tradition, and holiday spirit come together. Our 5-hour guided tour begins at 18:00 and invites you to explore Shkodër’s charming old town, discover its handcrafted treasures, and taste the warm flavors of the season.

Guests enjoy a cozy start with a hot chocolate or coffee, followed by a guided walk through the lively Christmas Market filled with artisanal crafts, ornaments, cheeses, sweets, and local specialties.
