3 Experiences to Combine with Albania

One of the least explored countries in Europe with its dramatic mountains, ancient history, authentic villages and beaches with crystal clear waters. One of the least explored countries in Europe with its dramatic mountains, ancient history, authentic villages and beaches with crystal clear waters. As the last frontier of intrepid travel in Europe, Albania really provides a proper opportunity to discover places very few other people have. Here we look at the Untravelled Paths experiences which best combine and complement a trip to Albania. Which one would you choose?

Montenegro

Views of Kotor Bay from the Old Town walls of Kotor.

Mighty Montenegro, for us, is one of the hidden gems of Europe. It impressively combines the sea with mountains, making it the perfect spot for relaxation, wandering around, and adrenaline. Neighbouring Albania, it’s a great destination to visit in combination. It’s so easy you’ll even get to trek over the border from Albania to Montenegro! In turn, you will get a holiday packed with history, charm, adventure and breathtaking sceneries. For further information on our Montenegro Experiences…

Italy

The traditional Trulli houses in Alberobello city, Apulia, Italy

This one is the ultimate European getaway. The stunning scenery and crystal clear waters of the Adriatic alongside the delicious fresh food and fabulous wine of Southern Italy is a holiday hard to forget. That is exactly what a combination with Puglia, in the heal of Italy, provides. The two experiences can easily be combined as all it takes is a little adventure on an overnight ferry from Durres.

Turkey

Cappadocia is known around the world as one of the best places to fly with hot air balloons.

Turkey may not be the closest to Albania but it’s actually only a 90-minute flight and the lure of a magical hot air balloon ride over the breathtaking scenery of Cappadocia might just persuade you. The Adriatic coast, remote mountains, the hustle of bustle of Istanbul before the once-in-a-lifetime balloon flight; it’s the perfect combination for that special someone. There are direct flights from Tirana to Istanbul. For further information on our Hot Air Balloon Experience…
