About Albania

Nestled in southeastern Europe on the Adriatic and Ionian seas, Albania remains one undiscovered secret. This small but mighty country offers a natural beauty, rich heritage, and warm hospitality.

With its mountainous inland landscape dotted with historic fortress towns and Ottoman-era architecture, Albania’s scenic valleys, pristine beaches, and colorful port cities beckon adventure. Outdoor enthusiasts will find paradise exploring Mountains, kayaking Lake Koman, or hiking through parks like Valbona, Theth, and Llogara.

Beyond the natural wonders, Albania’s storied past emerges through ancient ruins like Butrint and Byzantine frescoes in Berat. The communist era left its mark as well, with bunkers and Soviet-style blocks still found across the country.

Yet tradition still thrives, from the sound of old men chatting in cafés to the pleasure of slow dining and family life. The food mirrors theslam’s diverse influences, ranging from fresh seafood, hearty grilled meats, and farm-to-table fare to Turkish and Italian specialties.

With so much richness packed into this little nation, it’s no wonder Albania’s nickname is “A New Mediterranean Love.” Its unspoiled landscapes, vibrant culture, and lovely people make it an ideal destination for adventurers wanting to travel off-the-beaten-path. Let Albania cast its spell over you!
