Hello! I'm Bekim an independent professional guide, based in Prishtina, Kosovo. I am 41 years old, a graduate of Anthropology, with over 15 years of experience as a professional guide and cultural anthropologist.

My job involves introducing individuals, small or large groups to Kosovo and its rich cultural heritage, intangible heritage, history, customs and traditions, rituals, traditional food, great landscapes and beautiful nature of Kosovo.

Why me as your guide? My education in combination with my experiance with guides, my love for people and this country, my knowledge Kosovo's social, cultural, political, and economic situation, make me I believe an interesting and enjoyable professional guide.

Me and my two friends had a tour, including major highlights of the country with Bekim. We are very experienced travellers, participated in many similar tours, but Bekim was the best we ever met. He is extremely intelligent, can speak about everything, we received huge amount of useful information about the sights and Kosovo from every aspect we asked or not asked. Timetable and organization was more than perfect. Strongly recommended both the tour and the guide personally.
