Culture Meets Adventure: Peja City Tour & Rugova Canyon Hike

5 to 6 hours (approximately)

This experience combines the best of Kosovo’s cultural heritage and natural beauty in one unforgettable day. Unlike standard city tours or hiking-only adventures, our journey blends both — taking you from the cobblestone alleys of Peja’s Old Bazaar and a UNESCO-listed monastery, to the towering cliffs and fresh air of the Rugova Canyon.

Led by passionate local guides from Top Balkan Tours, you’ll get insider stories, hidden viewpoints, and a carefully paced itinerary that avoids tourist traps and overcrowded spots. You’ll also hike to a scenic waterfall tucked inside one of Europe’s deepest canyons — a place few travelers reach on their own.

Whether you’re a history lover, nature enthusiast, or simply want to make the most of your day in western Kosovo, this tour delivers authentic experiences, personal insights, and breathtaking moments — all in just one day.
