The Albanian Riviera
Travel along the stunning Riviera coast, stopping at famous beaches like Ksamil and Gjipe. The coastal towns of Saranda and Himara offer laid-back vibes and are great bases for exploring Albania's beautiful coastline.

Historic Berat and Gjirokastër
Discover Berat, known as the "City of a Thousand Windows," where you can admire well-preserved Ottoman architecture and visit the ancient castle. A drive to Gjirokastër, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, reveals cobblestone streets, fortress ruins, and traditional stone houses.

Essential Driving Tips for Albania

  • Drive on the Right
    Albania drives on the right side of the road. Take extra care when navigating busy intersections, and watch out for pedestrians and cyclists, especially in cities.

  • Road Conditions
    While main roads are generally well-maintained, rural and mountain roads can be narrow and winding. Drive cautiously, especially in remote areas and the Llogara Pass.

  • Speed Limits
    Urban areas: 40-50 km/h
    Rural roads: 80 km/h
    Highways: 90-110 km/h
    Always adhere to posted speed limits, as speeding fines are enforced.

  • Parking
    In major cities, parking can be limited, so look for designated parking areas or use public car parks where available. Avoid parking in restricted areas to avoid fines.

Top tips when hiring a car in Albania

  • The roads are generally in quite poor condition, consider hiring an SUV or drive carefully to avoid damage to your hire car
  • Ensure you have the necessary documentation, including a valid driver's license, passport or ID, and a credit card in the name of the primary driver, as these are typically required to rent a car in Albania.
  • Familiarize yourself with Albanian driving laws and regulations, including speed limits, road signs, parking rules, and alcohol limits, to ensure compliance and a safe driving experience.
  • Check the condition of the rental vehicle before accepting it, noting any existing damage or issues on the rental agreement, and take photos for documentation to avoid disputes upon return.
  • Consider purchasing additional insurance coverage, such as collision damage waiver (CDW) and theft protection, for peace of mind while driving in Albania, especially if you plan to explore rural or mountainous areas with challenging road conditions.
  • Language: While Albanian is the official language, English is commonly spoken in tourist areas. Basic Albanian phrases can be helpful in rural areas.
  • Fuel Stations: Plan your refueling points in advance, especially when traveling in remote areas.
