Worth agreeing on before you meet

Respect Religious Sites

Berat has mosques, Orthodox churches, and Bektashi shrines side by side, a reflection of Albania's religious harmony. Dress modestly when entering any place of worship and ask before photographing interiors.

Protect the UNESCO Site

Berat's UNESCO status protects its Ottoman architecture. Do not touch or climb on historic structures. Stay on marked paths in the castle precinct and canyon areas. Take only photos, leave only footprints.

Full detail (itineraries, budgets, neighbourhoods and safety) is in the Berat travel guide.
