The tour starts from the port of Butrint/Ksamil, where you sail through the Vivari canal and cross the lake. During the cruise, the view of the triangular fortress appears stunning from the right, while the Venetian tower dominates from the left. A special moment is the cruise through the fishing gates, dajlanet as they are known in the language of fishermen. After passing these gates, the direction is towards the Skea Gate, just as the hero of Troy, Aeneas, did 2000 years ago. He stopped for a short rest in these lands before continuing his journey towards the founding of Rome.

Continuing beyond, the structures of the mussel farms on the lake are distinguished and you sail towards them. There you can see the cultivation of mussels up close, learn about the cultivation methods and as a souvenir from this tour, take some mussels with you. Then, the cruise continues to Kalivua, another place of historical importance in Butrint. Kalivua, known as the “rich man’s house”, was the vacation spot of Atticus, Cicero’s famous friend. During the trip to Kalivua, the mussels that have been collected are shared, spending 15 minutes of work, sailing and meditation in nature.

After reaching the Kalivua pier, lunch is served in the peaceful and relaxing nature of the coast, surrounded by willows. During lunch, three types of mussel dishes, fresh vegetables, freshly baked bread from the most famous bakery in Xarre, as well as white wine are enjoyed. This authentic taste of our land will be served with love by the Lulos family. After an unforgettable day, the return is to the port of Butrint/Ksamil!
