This guide will walk through the best places and things to do in Albania. I have recently been to Albania and it's one of the most beautiful countries I've been to. So take a look at some of the hidden gems and picturesque locations.
I went to Albania with my Partner for 10 days, on a trip where we started from Montenegro, travelled through the whole of Albania, stopping at 4 locations. And finished our trip by visiting Corfu, Greece. Would definitely recommend visiting Albania.

A perfect 10-day- itinerary to the north and central Albania.
Raw, underrated and magical. I would use these three words to describe this beautiful country in the Balkans. Here is an exclusive guide to road trips around northern and central Albania.
I am thrilled to share exclusive information that I gathered by meeting and traveling with locals. From where to stay, what to eat, what to visit, how to visit and also what to include and avoid.
You will also find crucial information on safety in this guide. This will be updated as and when we do the next trip.
Give this guide a save to get any future updates!!
Please note: This guide covers the Northern and Central parts of Albania and not the Albanian Coast. There will be a separate guide on that.

This itinerary outlines nine days of continuous adventure on the North Island of New Zealand. Spend a couple days exploring Auckland and the nearby islands, head out west for some black sand beaches and secret coves, hit up some insane hiking trails, and head to the east coast for some stunning beaches that draw the local crowds all summer.
This itinerary is partially in hotels, but most of it is geared towards campervanning or rooftop tenting it through the North Island (that's what we did & LOVED it). It also includes a few hours of driving a day, and quite a few hiking opportunities (of course these can be substituted for other activities in the area). If you don't want to drive as much you could always spread the activities over more days, or skip your least favourite part to spend more time in the other areas ... but good luck trying to choose! Each day outlines activities to fill your day, how much driving, what to eat, where to stay, and other suggestions / information.
This itinerary covers the following specific places:
-> Auckland
-> Waiheke Island
-> Hobbiton
-> Marakopa
-> New Plymouth (Mt Taranaki)
-> Tongariro National Park
-> Lake Taupo
-> Coromandel Peninsula
-> Coromandel Forest Park
& so much more!
Note: if you're interested in doing both North and South Island in one trip, you should definitely consider purchasing our 3 week itinerary (found on our thatch home page) as it includes all of this same information & everything on the South Island!

You’ll find yourself enchanted by the vivid hues of its monuments, from the rich Mudejar decorations to the expertly crafted azulejos of Triana. Picture-perfect moments abound, like the contrast of deep blue skies against the lush green of mandarin trees.In Seville the beauty is in noticing the details!
And then there are the scents—the irresistible aroma of freshly fried churros in the morning air—that awaken your senses and beckon you to explore further.
I had the pleasure of visiting Seville in January, where mild temperatures and sunny days painted the perfect backdrop for my exploration. Of course, every journey through Seville involves numerous delightful stops at local tapas bars—I may have indulged a bit too much, but someone had to do it!
In this guide, I've curated a selection of my favorite sights, bites, and hidden gems of Seville, ensuring you experience the city's essence in all its glory. Search for the ᯓ★ to find ThePassepartout Tips in each section to get my insider point of view.

This guide is for both Islands in New Zealand (the north and the south) for first time visitors who are taking their camper van throughout the islands with a few days in Auckland and Queenstown. It's a three week itinerary and includes the arrival and departure flight days (and has some suggestions for these days as well).
It will go through (in detail!) every location we visited, the activities we did, the sites we camped up at, the restaurants we ate at (in between our camper van meals), what we learned about New Zealand and the camper van life whilst we were there, and other suggestions of what to do in the areas so you can alter your plans to fit what you want.
Note that this itinerary includes two different camper van rental locations on each island, and flying between the two islands. But you could easily do the majority of this itinerary and just switch up a few days to drive between the two islands! This itinerary does have a decent amount of driving but its because we really wanted to PACK our itinerary to see as much of New Zealand and it's beautiful scenery whilst we were here.
The main locations touched on are listed here (and we highly recommend all of them):
-> Auckland (& Waiheke Island)
-> West Coast North Island (Black Sand Beaches / Mt Taranaki)
-> Tongariro Alpine Crossing
-> Coromandel Peninsula
-> Queenstown
-> Milford Sound
-> Wanaka (& Roys Peak)
-> Aoraki / Mount Cook National Park
-> Dunedin
-> The Catlins
If you're looking for a detailed guide that outlines your plan for each and every day, look no further!
