What's an Albania ROAD TRIP really like?

🇦🇱 1000+ KM Scenic Drive Across Albania | Shkoder to Berat, Gjirokaster, Ksamil, Himare & Tirana

Join me on a breathtaking Albania road trip as we drive more than 1000 kilometers in 4 days, exploring the most scenic routes and historic towns. From the northern city of Shkoder, through Berat, Gjirokaster, the turquoise beaches of Ksamil, the coastal beauty of Himare, and finally back to Tirana, this drive captures the very best of Albania.

We rented our car through Localrent.com for just $52 per day, making this one of the most affordable and flexible ways to experience the country. This video is uploaded with background music to protect copyright, as we were listening to our own music while driving—so sit back, relax, and enjoy the journey.
