4 Tirana Cooking Classes Worth Booking

1.Tirana: Traditional Cooking Class with Wine & Raki Tasting

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 284 reviews · 4 hours · from $41Our pick

Join Sindi and her family-run team in Tirana for a four-hour Albanian cooking class. Prepare tave kosi, lakror, dessert, and other local treats with ready-to-use ingredients, then eat what you make with homemade wine and raki.

“The activity was great. The food was very easy to make and it turned out very tasty!!!!! The only thing is that you end up with the dish that not necessarily you made but maybe someone in your group. There was no way to tell. And it is not like you do end to end one dish, but you decide in team and you can miss something. But the great part is that you do end up with all of the recipes!!!!! I absolutely enjoyed it and would do another time ( she has different menu’s)”

Dervis our host was a genuinely lovely, helpful and patient chef who goes out his way to make everyone in the group feel relaxed and by the end of the class extremely full. We had to take our dessert back to the hotel as the generosity of the food never stopped. If you are in Tirana this is a must.”
