Question 1

How does the Albanian Riviera compare to Greece?

Accepted Answer

Same crystal-clear Ionian water, similar coastline — but with a fraction of the crowds and roughly half the price. Many travelers call it 'Greece 20 years ago.'

Question 2

Is 5 days enough for the Riviera?

Accepted Answer

For a focused beach trip, yes. You'll hit the three best coastal towns and have time for activities. Want more time? We can extend to 7 days easily.

Question 3

Can I end in Corfu instead of returning to Tirana?

Accepted Answer

Yes — that's one of the two exit options. Take the ferry from Sarandë to Corfu (30–75 min depending on ferry type) and fly home from there. We handle the ferry tickets.

Question 4

What are the beaches like?

Accepted Answer

Think turquoise water, white pebble beaches, and dramatic cliff backdrops. Dhërmi and Drymades are wider beaches; Ksamil has small sandy beaches with island views. The water clarity rivals anything in the Mediterranean.

Question 5

Is this suitable for non-swimmers?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. You can enjoy the beaches, coastal dining, and scenic drives without ever getting in the water. The Llogara Pass drive alone is worth the trip.
