About Albania
From the alpine peaks of Theth to the sun-kissed Ionian beaches of the south, Albania is a country of dramatic contrasts where every journey feels different. You can sip wine in a centuries-old vineyard one day and hike through crystal-clear mountain valleys the next. A destination this varied is best explored your way. Our tailor-made Albania tours let you shape every detail of your experience. Whether you want to trace Ottoman history through Berat’s cobbled streets, chase sunsets along the Albanian Riviera, or immerse yourself in remote northern villages, our travel designers are always ready to craft a customized Albania itinerary that matches your pace, budget, interests, and preferred travel style.
Choose between self-drive holidays that give you freedom and flexibility or private guided trips that reveal local stories, hidden corners, and off-the-map moments. Whether you want to add a private tour in Berat, or include a cooking class overlooking the sea, each bespoke Albanian experience begins with your wishlist. Speak to our travel expert in Albania today.
When to plan your bespoke Albania holiday
The timing of your trip can make a huge difference in how you experience Albania. From April through October, the country bursts with color and energy, making this the best season for most travelers. Spring and early summer are ideal for hiking and exploring the countryside, while July and August offer the warmest temperatures and lively coastal vibes along the Riviera — though early bookings are essential to secure boutique stays and private guides. From November to March, the pace slows as the mountains take on a quiet charm, perfect for cultural exploration, scenic road trips, and even skiing in the north. A month-wise breakdown of the weather and what to expect is available here.
Once you’ve decided when to explore Albania, find the right travel partner who can turn your ideas into a seamless, custom-built journey. The earlier you start planning, the more options you’ll have — from snagging early-bird discounts to securing your preferred hotels, flights, and experiences. If time isn’t on your side, don’t worry; our travel experts in Albania can still accommodate customization requests submitted at least three to four weeks before your planned departure.
How many days is ideal for a customized Albania trip
Although Albania is compact, its landscapes and heritage are wonderfully diverse, and the duration of your stay determines how much of that richness you can experience. A four-day itinerary gives you enough time to explore Tirana’s lively neighborhoods, visit the Roman amphitheater in Durrës, and wander through Berat’s UNESCO-listed old town. With seven to ten days, you can drive through the dramatic Llogara Pass, visit the historic city of Gjirokastër, and unwind along the Albanian Riviera’s sun-soaked beaches. Give yourself two weeks in Albania or more, and the possibilities expand even further: hike through the Albanian Alps, explore Lake Ohrid’s monasteries, or even extend your custom itinerary into North Macedonia or Montenegro. Check out our recommended durations for Albania.
Must-visit destinations on a tailored tour of Albania
Most tours of Albania begin with Tirana since most enter the country through its international airport. We suggest spending a day exploring its colorful architecture, creative restaurants, and thought-provoking museums such as Bunk’Art and the House of Leaves. You cannot miss Berat, located just south of the capital. It enchants visitors with its Ottoman-era houses cascading down the hillside and its nearby vineyards that invite relaxed tastings of regional wines. The coastal city of Vlore, where the Adriatic meets the Ionian Sea, is a gateway to the stunning Albanian Riviera. This stretch reveals hidden coves, turquoise waters, and charming beach towns like Dhermi and Himara. Further south lies Butrint National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that showcases the layered history of Greek, Roman, and Byzantine civilizations amid peaceful lagoons.
Some of our mountain-loving travelers also inquire about Theth and Valbona valleys of the Albanian Alps. These destinations are famous for their well-marked trails, alpine lodges, and warm hospitality. Nature lovers and photographers can also explore Lake Ohrid and its surrounding monasteries near Pogradec, a serene stop on any bespoke Albania itinerary.
Budget for a customized Albania itinerary
A customized trip to Albania naturally costs a bit more since it’s built around your preferences, but it doesn’t have to be expensive. Our travel experts can design bespoke Albania itineraries starting from USD 80 per person per day, and there’s no fee for planning — you only pay for the trip you choose.
