Getting Around Gjirokastër with Your Dog

💡 Quick Tips

• 1.The old bazaar and castle quarter have no through-traffic; park at the lower city car park and walk up. The climb to the castle takes 15-20 min with a dog.
• 2.Furgons to Saranda (1.5 hours) and Tirana (3 hours) leave from the main road bus stop near the city hall. Small dogs in a carrier are usually fine.
• 3.Taxis in Gjirokastër charge 200-500 ALL for city rides; ask the hotel to call one, as few respond to street hailing.
