ABOUT THE TRIP
Albania is a mountain road that takes your breath away. Wild beaches with snow-white sand and warm sea. Jagged treetops that support the clouds. Cities with remnants of Roman heritage and villages that have preserved unique Albanian traditions. Fields bathed in the red blush of poppies and traffic jams with goats and sheep crossing the road. These are just a few reasons why this pearl of the Balkans easily makes even experienced travelers fall in love.
IMPORTANT: the tour program may change depending on weather conditions, the condition of the participants, and changes in the transport schedule at the discretion of the tour guide.
OUR itinerary
DAY 1. Tirana, transfer to Shkoder.
We meet as a group at Tirana airport.
We move (about 100 km, 2 hours) to the ancient city of Northern Albania with a pronounced Italian flavor and rich history – Shkoder, the city of cyclists, as some say – the Albanian Amsterdam. Check-in to the hotel, rest after the road. After that we set off to explore the city.
I recommend taking tickets for the following flights:
DAY 2. Mountain village of Teti.
After breakfast, we head to the mountain village of Teti (travel time – 2 hours), tomorrow we will have an easy hike to Blue Eye, so today is more or less a relaxing day, we will walk, take hundreds of photos, visit several waterfalls and taste local cuisine.
DAY 3. Hiking to the mountain lake - Blue Eye.
Today we are going to Blue Eye, it will be an easy trek, but with simply incredible views, we will have lunch at a local restaurant, where they prepare freshly caught fish on the grill, sooo delicious. And we will spend the rest of the day just enjoying the mountain landscapes and the sound of the mountain river.
DAY 4. Berat - the city of a thousand windows.
After breakfast we head to the central part of Albania – the city of Berat, the city of a thousand windows (travel time – 5-6 hours). It is famous for its white Ottoman houses. We will walk a lot along these cozy streets, we will spend the sunset at the highest point of this city with a glass of wine or something tasty. Here we will spend the night in a hotel.
DAY 5. Llogara National Park, first sea.
After breakfast we go to the Llogara National Park (2 hours drive). On the left are the mountains, and on the right is the gorgeous sea, we slowly drive through these beauties and stop at the observation decks. Check in to the hotel, after which we run to taste seafood in a restaurant on the seashore, rest a little and then go to the sunset at the Llogara Pass.
DAY 6. Transfer to Ksamil.
After breakfast we go to Ksamil – the Albanian Maldives (this is where we will spend the rest of our time). We deserve a little relaxation by the sea. Therefore, these days we will bask in the sun on the beach, which is rightfully considered one of the best in Albania, and taste seafood.
DAY 7. Free day at sea.
Well, finally, it's the day when you can bask in the sun until late in the evening, a free day.
DAY 8. Gjirokastra, return to Tirana, flight home.
Today we are leaving for Tirana, we will drive almost through the entire country (approximately 5 hours). On the way we will stop at the Blue Eye and visit another UNESCO site - Gjirokastra.
Airport transfer, friends, see you on your next trips :)
