TiranaSZN Crawl, Free Shots

Tour rated 4.9 across 139 traveller reviews.

Overview

This is a four and a half hour guided pub crawl through Tirana's nightlife, run by TiranaSZN, with free welcome shots at each venue and a photographer along for the night. It starts at 9:00 PM beside Mon Cheri at the base of the Pyramid of Tirana steps, where guides with a red or black umbrella and TiranaSZN lanyards wait to gather the group. Arriving ten minutes early is recommended.

From the Pyramid, the crawl works its way through a series of bars and ends in Blloku. Along the way the included alcoholic beverages come as welcome shots at each stop, and a photographer accompanies the crawl. The crawl can run large, with a maximum of 150 travellers.

It suits adults of 18 and over who want a guided night out with other travellers and who do not mind walking between venues. Reviewers have described the staff as friendly and the service as quick, and one mentioned the organizer accommodating a late arrival and adding a stop to watch a football match.

What To Expect From The Tour

A few practical points worth knowing before booking this crawl.

• Getting there. The meeting point is beside Mon Cheri at the base of the Pyramid of Tirana steps. The listing notes the start is near public transportation.
• Arrive early. Guides ask everyone to arrive by 8:50 PM, ten minutes before the 9:00 PM start. One reviewer who arrived late said the organizer was understanding.
• Pace and fitness. The listing says travellers should have a moderate physical fitness level, since the night involves walking between bars for 4.5 hours. Wear shoes that can handle a long evening on foot.
• Group size. The crawl allows a maximum of 150 travellers, so expect a big, lively crowd rather than a small group. Reviewers describe the atmosphere as friendly and the staff as welcoming.
• Bring ID. The experience is restricted to travellers aged 18 and over. Only adults can join this crawl.
• Photos handled. A photographer travels with the crawl. Shots at each venue are included as part of the alcoholic beverages.

Common issues. The crawl is not wheelchair accessible, and it requires a minimum number of travellers to run; if that minimum is not met, the operator offers a different date, a different experience, or a full refund. Poor weather can also cancel the night, with the same remedy. Groups can be as large as 150 people, which will not suit anyone wanting a quiet or intimate bar tour, and the 4.5 hours duration demands moderate fitness. Drinks beyond the welcome shots at each venue are not listed as included, so budget for anything extra.
