The Experience
Ninety minutes with a guide who lives in Durrës, walking through the Roman Amphitheater -- one of the main attractions the city holds. The guide speaks English or Italian, and the entrance ticket is included in the price. You meet at the site and move through it on foot, seeing the structure from someone who knows how it sits in the city's history and what it looks like now.
Public transportation options are available nearby if you need to reach the amphitheater. The walking itself is straightforward; the site is suitable for all fitness levels, though the operator notes it is not recommended for travelers with spinal injuries, poor cardiovascular health, or during pregnancy.
