We just came back from traveling in Albania and we visited so many amazing and unique areas. From the mountains, to the riviera, and the historical towns in between. We LOVED our time in Albania. This guide will show you the wonderful places we stayed and LOVED as well as many beautiful spots we saw along the way that I would have also loved to have stayed in and would go back to someday. This is the result of lots of research and thought put into these curated spots. In the notes section of each I will list reasons why these places appealed to me and why I think they would be great stays or why I KNOW they were. I will indicate which places we stayed in ourselves as well. Please feel free to reach out to me any time with any questions at planformedani@gmail.com or planformedani on instagram. Also know that if you book hotels through my recommendations I do receive a small commission at no cost what so ever to you! It could help me to keep finding and recommending these great spots!

This guide is a full itinerary for a road trip from North to South in Albania. It will start with basic info you should know for traveling within Albania such as visa info, currency, safety, weather, pharmacy, etc. It will cover everything you should do and see as well as where to stay and eat in each place. It will also include alternative ideas for each place and things we didn't get to reach. Throughout this guide I will cover Theth (a mountain paradise) Durres (a laid back beach town) Berat (a UNESCO world heritage city) and surrounding wineries Himare (an incredible town on the Albanian Riviera) Ksamil (the Southern tip of the Albanian Riviera & across from Corfu Greece) Tirana (the capital city of Albania) Dhermi ( a town we didn't make it to that I wish we did) I will also create mini guides for each of these locations in case you're not spending that much time in Albania and want to hit specific places. Most importantly I am HAPPY to consult with you about ANYTHING you want to know in this itinerary. You can reach me very easily at planformedani@Gmail.com and at planformedani on instagram. Do not hesitate to reach out before, after, or even if you're not purchasing this guide. I am always just happy to help!
