Albania
Albania in spring is a palette of blooming landscapes and historical marvels. In the Albanian Riviera, the coastal town of Saranda serves as a perfect base for exploring nearby ancient sites like Butrint, a UNESCO World Heritage site, and enjoying fresh seafood dinners by the water. Heading inland, the city of Berat, known as the “City of a Thousand Windows,” offers a unique glimpse into traditional Albanian life. Participate in local wine tastings, which showcase the rich viticulture of the region. Nearby Gjirokastër, the “Stone City,” provides a deep dive into Albania’s Ottoman past with its meticulously preserved stone houses and bazaars. Enjoy the local cuisine, featuring dishes like ‘qifqi’ (rice balls seasoned with mint and fried), and explore the fortress that dominates the town’s skyline. TransfersAlbania ensures that each transfer not only takes you to your destination but also introduces you to the most authentic experiences each location has to offer.
Macedonia
Macedonia blooms with opportunities for cultural immersion and outdoor activities in spring. Lake Ohrid is not just a beautiful natural attraction; it’s also a cultural hub with its ancient monasteries like St. John at Kaneo, where you can experience Byzantine art in its original setting. In Skopje, explore the Old Bazaar to shop for local crafts and taste Macedonian culinary specialties such as ‘tavče gravče’ (baked beans) and ‘ajvar’ (pepper-based condiment), staples at any Macedonian table. For a touch of adventure, Matka Canyon offers kayaking along the Treska River, hiking trails, and cave exploring. TransfersAlbania facilitates each journey, making sure you experience these activities as seamlessly as possible, with local insights and tips to enhance your visit.
Kosovo
Spring in Kosovo is vibrant and filled with life, making it the perfect time to explore its cities and landscapes. In Pristina, join the locals in sipping coffee at one of the numerous modern cafés or visit the traditional markets to mingle and understand the local way of life. Prizren, arguably Kosovo’s most picturesque city, hosts the Dokufest, an international documentary and short film festival that brings together artists and audiences from around the globe in a festive atmosphere. Hiking in the Rugova Valley, with its dramatic cliffs and serene pastures, offers a peaceful retreat from city life. With TransfersAlbania, every trip is planned to ensure you engage deeply with the local culture, from festival outings to tranquil hikes.
Montenegro

Inland, Durmitor National Park awakens with spring wildflowers and melting snowcaps, creating an ideal setting for mountain biking and hiking through its alpine forests. The coastal town of Budva combines sun-soaked beaches with a bustling nightlife scene, where you can enjoy fresh seafood by the Adriatic and dance until dawn at beachfront bars.
