Road Trip & Self-Drive Tours & Trips in Albania

You'll drive your rented 4x4 SUV on off-road routes from Theth Valley toward the Montenegrin border, passing mountain peaks above Valbona Valley and cruising along the Kosovo border on the way to Tirana. The self-guided route takes you to Bovilla Lake, up Mount Chestnut for views near Bajram Curri, and through Skanderbeg Square in central Tirana. Local experts are on hand daily 9am-6pm, with round-the-clock emergency help and audio tips based on your location.

Drive yourself through Albania from Tirana to Saranda with GPS that's already loaded with your hotels and a backup agent on call if you need help. You'll check out UNESCO sites like the ancient ruins at Butrint National Park and walk through Gjirokastra's old Ottoman stone houses in the castle quarter. There's hiking to the Blue Eye near Theth and swimming in Nderlysaj's pools, then later you can relax in the Benje Thermal Pools under Permet's Kadiu Bridge.

Drive the beautiful Albanian Riviera through Llogara Pass at 1,027 meters in Llogara National Park with coastal gorges along the way. Head from Tirana through medieval Kruja's castle and bazaar to Shkodra, then wind along Lake Ohrid and stop at Lin's basilica. Follow the ancient Via Egnatia through Elbasan's royal tombs to Voskopoja mountain village at 1,200m, then continue via Permet's winding roads to Ksamil's Caribbean-like beaches.
