The experience

Your driver picks you up from your Berat hotel and takes you to one of three family-run wineries: Edoni, Alpeta, or Pupa, depending on availability. A member of the winemaking family meets you on arrival and leads you through the winery itself, explaining how they make their wines and the story behind them. The vineyard visit depends on weather and season, so your guide will confirm on the day whether that part is possible.

You taste three wines selected by the winery, each one paired with raki and local snacks (olives, cheese, vegetables) that complement the flavors. The whole experience runs 2.5 to 3 hours, giving you time to ask questions and linger over what you're tasting. Once it's done, your driver brings you back to your hotel in Berat.
