Travel to Albania

Looking for a destination not yet over-flooded by mass tourism? Look no further! We present you Albania! For a long and somehow dark period of time Albania has been locked away from tourist crowds but in recent years, Tirana has been transformed from a dull communist city of grey architecture to a trendy and colorful European capital full of color, life and hope for a brighter future.

Not to be missed while you travel to Albania are the twin UNESCO-listed towns ob Berat and Gjirokastër admired for their white Ottoman-era mansions climbing up the hilltop crowned with a magnificent fortress.

History buffs should also be fascinated by the ruins of half-forgotten ancient sites such as Apollonia and Butrint. And then there are the astonishing Accursed Mountains in the north offering some of the best hiking in the region – especially scenic is the popular day-trek between the isolated mountain villages of Theth and Valbona.

Another focal point of Albanian tourism is its gorgeous coastline of the Ionian Sea. Beach towns of the Albanian Riviera have seen a significant rise tourism, but despite that, Albania still remains one of the Europe’s most kept secret and there are still areas waiting to be discovered. Check the itineraries below for that and so much more. Albania awaits!
