Is Albania safe?
"And you're not afraid there?!?"
By far the most frequent question we get about Albania.
The second most common is - "Isn't it expensive there?" (it isn't, which you will find out in our article What are the prices in Albania?)
The answer to the first question is very simple - no, we are not afraid there.
How to travel by car in Albania
A car is essentially the only means of transport for traveling around Albania. The second option is to use local minibuses, but if you are in Albania for the first time, I don't recommend it. Without knowing Albanian, it will be very difficult for you. There are no official timetables and the vast majority of drivers do not speak English.
There is no passenger train service in Albania and no official bus lines either.
You can get around Tirana and the surrounding area by taxi, but in the rest of the country you need a car, either your own or a rented one.
You can easily rent a car in Tirana, directly at the airport or in the center. You can also fly to Corfu and rent a car there, or take a ferry boat to Saranda, where car rental is also possible. You can also find more information in our article "how to get to Albania".
What are the prices in Albania?
One of the most common questions we get is - how expensive is Albania?
The answer depends a lot on what and where you buy. We will try to summarize at least the basic things here.
First of all, it should be said that there is a big difference in food/accommodation prices by the sea (in Tirana) and in the mountains. Mountains are significantly cheaper.
Why projekt LiveAlbania was created?
The initial motivation was the desire to build "something" in the beautiful Albanian mountains. At first it was supposed to be a cottage, but very soon it became a project with the working title "Albanian nature valley".
