  • What are the best areas to spend a week in Albania?

    A week allows for a good exploration. You could spend a few days exploring Tirana, then head south to the Albanian Riviera, enjoying the beaches of Dhermi or Himarë. Afterward, you could head north to explore the mountainous regions, perhaps visiting the charming town of Berat.
