About Albania

Albania is one of Europe’s most underrated destinations — a land of rugged mountains, ancient cities, and stunning turquoise coastlines.
Your journey begins in Tirana, a vibrant capital full of color, energy, and culture. Explore its lively streets, rich history, and creative spirit before heading deeper into the heart of Albania.

Wander through the enchanting town of Berat, a UNESCO World Heritage Site known for its white Ottoman houses and hilltop castle. Then make your way down the spectacular Albanian Riviera, where the coastal towns of Vlora and Saranda offer sun-soaked beaches, fresh seafood, and breathtaking views.

Swim and snorkel in the crystal-clear waters near the Karaburun Peninsula, discover the ancient ruins of Butrint, and relax at the paradise-like beaches of Ksamil. End your days with golden sunsets and unforgettable memories shared with a group of like-minded young travelers.

This is your chance to experience Albania — raw, real, and incredibly beautiful — on a once-in-a-lifetime adventure.

  • In Albania, western-style clothing is normal, especially in cities and tourist areas. Swimwear is fine at the beach, but topless sunbathing isn’t accepted.

    In rural areas, dress modestly. When visiting mosques or churches, cover shoulders and knees; women may need a headscarf, and men should avoid shorts. Shoes must be removed in mosques.

    Though Albania has a Muslim majority, it’s secular and tolerant—strict dress codes are rare, but respect local customs in traditional or religious settings.

  • Yes, of course! Everyone can join our trips.

  • There is no cancellation policy for this trip. But you can always re-sell your tickets to other participants!
