When planning a holiday in Albania, think in advance about what places you would like to visit. A week’s drive is a good option to see the main attractions. But we still do not recommend constantly traveling from one locality to another. It is better to choose 3-4 locations and stay in them longer to fully explore the place and feel its atmosphere.
Beautiful places in Albania
By renting a car in Albania, you can go to the following places:
- Gjirokaster. The city among the mountain peaks in the south of the country will amaze you with its architecture. It has been preserved since the times of the Ottoman Empire. Be sure to visit the main fortress, as well as the fortified tower house of Zecate from the early 19th century.
- The small village of Lin on the shores of Lake Ohrid, neighboring North Macedonia. In Lin you can relax on the beach, have an active time or just enjoy the beauty of nature.
