Day 1  Tirana      
Welcome to Tirana! Tonight, you’ll have the chance to chat & eat with your brand new crew over a welcome dinner at a charming local restaurant.    

Day 2  Tirana      
Today’s all about epic views, history & some more epic views. First, take the cable car up to Dajti Mountain where jaw-dropping views of the city await. Then, head back down where a local guide will show you around the city’s historical buildings - where you’ll get to try local olive oil. The rest of the day is all yours.    

Day 3  Tirana to Vlorë    
See the Albanian Riviera today! After breakfast, say goodbye to Tirana and hop onto your coach for a short drive to your next stop. Turquoise waters, golden sand - that's how you know we’re in a coastal wonderland. You can choose to spend all day unwinding on the stunning beaches. Or take a boat tour to the National Marine Park with views of rugged coastlines & lush green hills.    

Day 4  Vlorë    
No, you’re not in the Maldives. This is the Albanian Riviera! You’ve got some time today to check out the beaches and streets of this beautiful hidden gem. Then, we’ll make our way to stunning little Porto Palermo Bay. There’s time to explore the castle and sparkling blue bay. Then, on your way back to Vlorë - stop by to witness a unique performance of traditional Albanian singing.    

Day 5  Vlorë to Shkodër    
This morning is all about recharging & relaxing by the sandy beach. After lunch, drive to another shiny new destination. Sprawling fields, rolling hills and tranquil panoramas - that’s how you’ll be greeted at Fishtë. This evening, gorge on a delicious, homegrown dinner (with glorious vineyard views as the backdrop). Equipped with a new sense of serenity, tonight rest in a wonderful traditional hotel in Shkodër.    

Day 6  Shkodër to Valbonë    
Rise & shine travellers, there’s a long day ahead. It’s ferry time! You’ll cruise along the breathtaking valleys and hills surrounding Lake Komani towards Feirya. Then, a short drive later, arrive at Valbonë. If the boat cruise has impressed you already, just wait till you see what's next. After a short break at a guesthouse, head off for an afternoon of hiking in Valbonë National Park - passing by tranquil rivers, jaw-dropping valleys and rocky cliffs along the way. Then, finish it all off with a hearty dinner back in the guesthouse.    

Day 7  Valbonë to Tirana    
Wave goodbye to the mountains. A different adventure awaits today. This morning you’re going to Kosovo!    
This beautiful old town is studded with restaurants that are perfect if you want to try the local cuisine. Then you’ve got some time to explore the cobblestone streets, before you continue onto Tirana. You'll have the option to grab your pals and head to a restaurant in the city to enjoy some local eats. Then, it’s back to the hotel for a well deserved snooze.

Day 8  Tirana    
Oh, what a treat it has been… 8 days of beautiful beaches, perfect peaks and undisturbed exploration. Grab your final breakfast here. And grab your friends’ socials too. The only thing left to do now is plan your next trip together!
