Into the land of tangerines closer to the ancient city of Butrint we organize the Mandarina Tour, a truly individually guided experience with local farmers and local dishes.

Farmers will give us some basic information on how to collect the fruit, how to respect the processes involved and then take part in an age old tradition of picking the delicious fruit. After the wooden crates are full we'll stop and rest, in an idyllic spot where farmers will prepare a sumptuous lunch with traditional fayre: Famous homemade bread of Xarra, feta cheese, olives, orange juice, water. The taste of our land is on the table prepared with smiles. The head farmer will then address us with a talk all about tangerines, the history of our village, the productivity of the business and about his passion for the sun blessed fruit.
