Handcrafted, Private Tours to Kosovo

Overview

You want to do things your way. We get it. MIR has been planning custom, private tours from scratch for over three decades, and we understand just how important flexibility is in travel.

Traveling privately on a custom private tour affords a great deal of flexibility – flexibility to immerse yourself in your own exclusive experience, to craft an itinerary around your interests, to go at your own pace, and to travel when it’s right for you.

How does it work? We’ll connect you with one of our Private Tour Designers so that you can share your vision and expectations with us.

We’ll ask you questions to better learn about your interests: Want to explore a cave, getting up close and personal to stalagmites, stalactites, and an underground lake? How about enjoying a wine tasting in a region with a little-known, but long tradition of wine-making?

We’ll share our extensive experience in the region – and our suggestions. And then we’ll dig into it and custom-craft a private tour itinerary for your review. Give us a call at 800-424-7289 to get started, or click here to be on your way.

Signature Experiences

Below are just a few examples of the signature experiences that MIR can arrange for you in Kosovo. Let them be a source of inspiration, then get in touch with one of our Private Tour Designers to craft an itinerary uniquely suited to your travel goals, budget, and style.

  • Stroll Pristina’s Bill Clinton Boulevard and admire the statue of this U.S. president, honored for his work to help end ethnic cleansing of Kosovans by Serbian military in 1999.
  • Visit the once-neglected Jewish cemetery of 57 remaining tombstones atop Tauk Bahqe Hill, restored by an international team of students – and a reminder of Pristina’s earlier thriving community of 1,500 Jews.
  • Step into the traditional home of a local family of Kosovan Albanians, hearing personal stories of life, death, ethnic cleansing, and survival during the 1990s Kosovo War with Serbia.
  • Meet a local expert or a member of the NATO-led peacekeeping force (KFOR) to discuss Kosovo’s turbulent history and independence from, and current relations with, Serbia – its longtime nemesis.
