Discover Albania's best-kept secrets over 15 unforgettable days — from the UNESCO stone cities of Gjirokastra and Berat, to the wild Albanian Alps, the crystal coves of the Ionian Riviera, and the tranquil shores of Lake Ohrid. A journey of authentic enco

Welcome to Albania, a little-known gem nestled between mountains and sea, where ancient traditions meet wild and breathtaking landscapes. Nicknamed the "Land of Eagles," this journey takes you to the heart of an authentic country at the crossroads of culture, nature, and local encounters.

From UNESCO-listed cities to the crystal waters of the Ionian Sea, through perched mountain villages and lush green valleys, this 15-day tour invites you to discover a real, living, and deeply moving Albania.

Highlights include hiking in the Albanian Alps at Theth, kayaking along the Ionian Riviera at Drimadhes, white-water rafting on the wild Vjosa River, cooking with local grandmothers in Roshnik, relaxing in natural thermal baths at Bënjë, and immersing yourself in the fishing village of Lin on Lake Ohrid. Each day brings a new destination, a new experience, and a new connection with local life.

This tour is available in three options: with or without local guides, and with or without adventure activities; making it adaptable to all travel styles.
