Getting to Kosovo: There is only one international airport in Kosovo, the Prishtina Airport (PRN). The Airport of Skopje in neighboring North Macedonia is also an option. For those arriving via PRN, you can take a taxi to the hotel (usual cost is around 20 Euros).
Weather: The weather in Kosovo during the summer is usually warm, sometimes hot, and sunny. But during early June the temperatures should not be too high. The conference venue and hotels will be air-conditioned.
Safety: Prishtina and Kosovo are generally safe for tourists and foreigners. No extra precaution is needed.
Transportation: Walking and taxi are the best ways to get around Prishtina.
Wednesday trip: We will start the trip with a visit to the Decani Monastery (14th century), continue to the city of Gjakova (old Bazaar that was rebuilt, mosques and tekkes, good food) and then finish the trip with a visit to Prizren (Ottoman-style architecture, notable churches and mosques) and maybe Prevalla in Sharr Mountains.
During the other days, guests would be encouraged to discover Prishtina and its surroundings. Near Prishtina (15 minutes by car) are the Gracanica Monastery and the Ulpiana Archeological Park.
