Local roots, global standards
A 13-day private self-drive tour through Albania, Kosovo and Montenegro, built for couples, families, friends and small groups who want a bit of everything: mountain lakes, canyons, UNESCO old towns, the Adriatic coast and a few adventures along the way. Starts and ends in Tirana on your own dates, semi-guided: you drive, local guides meet you in every major city, and if you would rather not drive at all, add a driver or driver-guide in your language and it becomes fully guided.
Planned and operated by InAlb, Tirana. Last updated .
Explore mountain lakes, historic towns, dramatic canyons and the Adriatic coast on a private journey through Albania, Kosovo and Montenegro.

In Kosovo, explore the old bazaars of Gjakova and Prizren, visit Pristina and continue towards Peja and Rugova Canyon.
Montenegro combines the forests of Biogradska Gora and Durmitor’s Black Lake with views over Tara Canyon and an optional zipline. Visit Ostrog Monastery, explore Kotor and Perast, and take a boat to Our Lady of the Rocks before coastal stops in Budva and Ulcinj.
Back in Albania, discover Rana e Hedhun, Divjakë-Karavasta and Berat’s historic neighbourhoods, then visit Holta Canyon before returning to Tirana. Expect regular drives and a different overnight stop each night.
All accommodations are carefully selected and allocated according to your booking.

✓ Every review from a confirmed bookingOld story. A young lady, whom we met in Mekedonia recommended wormly us to visit Albania (If and when it will be possible) . Now it is possible and we did it
We did 5 countries in a 15 day road trip, so the program was well loaded. However we managed to see all we wanted to see. Starting in Tirana, we then drove up to…
Comfortable walking shoes with grip for canyons, old towns and light hikes, swimwear and a quick-dry towel for the coast, a light layer for the mountains (Valbona, Durmitor, Kolasin) and cooler evenings, sun protection: hat, sunscreen and sunglasses, passport and driving licence for the Kosovo and Montenegro border crossings, some cash in euros and Albanian lek.
The route crosses Albania, Kosovo and Montenegro. Carry your passport and tell us your nationality so we can advise on any border or visa requirements, especially for Kosovo. The car is cleared for all three countries. The rental supplier provides the vehicle documents. International vehicle insurance is purchased separately at the border for approximately €15.
A new automatic car, chosen by party size: compact SUV, SUV or van (Hyundai Tucson, Santa Fe, Staria or similar). Fully insured, no deposit, no excess, extra drivers free. Minimum driver age 23. Your national licence is enough, no international permit needed. You collect the car at your first hotel and leave it at your last hotel. We handle the airport transfers. Fuel, tolls and parking are yours on self-drive. With a driver or driver-guide they are included.
Albania uses the lek. Kosovo and Montenegro use the euro. Carry some cash for small towns.

You change hotels most nights as the route moves through the region, so pack a smaller day bag for easy access.

Travellers who need step-free access, or who want a single hotel base for the whole trip, or who want a pure beach holiday or a hard trekking expedition.
Travel insurance is not required, but we highly recommend a policy that covers cancellation, medical care and driving abroad.
No mandatory vaccinations for most travellers. Standard regional recommendations apply. Check with your doctor before travel.
Albania uses the lek. Kosovo and Montenegro use the euro. Carry some cash, as ATMs are available in main towns. Budget for fuel, tolls, parking and approximately €15 for international vehicle insurance on self-drive. Tips for guides and drivers are at your discretion.

We did 5 countries in a 15 day road trip, so the program was well loaded. However we managed to see all we wanted to see. Starting in Tirana, we then drove up to Shkoder, crossed into Montenegro to Budva and Kotor. From there onwards to Bosnia where we visited Mostar and Sarajevo. We then moved back into Montenegro and Kosovo. From Peja we moved into Macedonia, saw Skopje and Ohrid and back into the southern part of Albania.
Anspruchsvolle - auch sportliche - Erlebnisreise quer durch Albanien im Selbstfahrermodus
Alles war super organisiert. Die Hotels waren genau nach unserem Geschmack, ordentlich und sauber, mit freundlichem, zuvorkommendem Personal. Es war allerdings sehr heiß tagsüber, womit wir aber gerechnet haben, denn es war Mitte August. Alles in allem war es wieder eine tolle Reise.
Il rapporto qualità prezzo non raggiunge la sufficienza. Per quello che abbiamo pagato, i servizi sono stati di scarsa qualità. Alcune sistemazioni improponibili (in particolare in Albania e Montenegro) e in altre, in hotel di categoria alta, le camere erano di tipo troppo basico rispetto a quanto pagato. L'auto noleggiata era a malapena pulita. L'agenzia ha offerto assistenza ma ormai hotel e auto ci erano stati assegnati e non erano adeguati a quanto abbiamo speso. Capisco la situazione difficile nei paesi che abbiamo visitato, ma un hotel da 40 euro a notte non può essere fatto pagare come uno a quattro stelle.
Old story. A young lady, whom we met in Mekedonia recommended wormly us to visit Albania (If and when it will be possible) . Now it is possible and we did it
Die ganze Organisation hat sehr gut geklappt. Obwohl wir (für Schweizer-Verhältnisse) eher wenige Informationen zur Reise bekommen haben, hat alles wunderbar geklappt. Bei der Ankunft in Tirana wurden wir von Ermal abgeholt und zum Hotel gebracht. Vorher gab es noch eine Führung (im Auto) durch die Stadt. Am nächsten Morgen bekamen wir von Bora und Ermal alle wichtigen Infos und das Handy und den Hotspot für die Reise. Während der ganzen Reise waren sie via Handy jederzeit für uns erreichbar. Auch als wir leider in Shkodra plötzlich krank wurden und Ermal zufälligerweise auch in Shkodra war, hat er sehr gut zu uns geschaut. Wir haben das Land selbständig mit einem Mietauto erkundet, was sehr gut machbar ist. Unsere Stationen waren: Tirana, Shkodra, Prekal, Valbona, Peja (Kosovo), Prizren (Kosovo), Berat, Vlora (Kurzhalt), Dhermi und Saranda. Von Saranda aus, kann man mit dem Auto verschiedene Strände erreichen, auch solche die im Juli nicht so überfüllt sind, ein guter Tipp ist Borsh. Von Saranda ging es wieder zurück nach Tirana, wo uns Ermal und Bora wieder an den Flughafen gebracht haben. Alles in allem eine sehr gelungene Reise, welche wir lange in guter Erinnerung behalten werden. Nicht zuletzt wegen der tollen und liebevollen Organisation.
The tour was planned and organized according to our wishes. The logistics went smoothly, and we were kept informed about what was scheduled for that day and the next. If we had any questions, we could contact the agency via WhatsApp at any time and received a response or assistance very quickly. We would definitely reccomend Inalb, the local agency again if you were to vacation in Albania. Many thanks to the friendly and helpful staff at the agency.
Wir hatten eine Rundreise (20 Tage) als Selbstfahrer durch Albanien, Nordmazedonien und dem Kosovo von Martin (lokale Agentur) organisiert, im Mai durchgeführt. Diese 3 Länder zu besuchen hieß für uns, sich auf sie einzulassen, das Erlebte zu genießen, mit Leuten ins Gespräch zu kommen und was für uns wichtig war und ist, keine Vergleiche was die Qualität etc. betrifft, mit Zentraleuropäischen Ländern anzustellen. Unser Einlassen würde belohnt. Wunderbare Begegnungen, tolles Essen, wahnsinnig interessanten Kultur - ein Genuss. Martin hat uns in allen Situationen bestens unterstützt, mit Engagement unsere ad hoc Sonderwünsche erfüllt, dadurch Mehrarbeit geleistet und uns dadurch das Gefühl zu geben tatsächlich individuell unterwegs zu sein. Wir sind von der Reise und der Betreuung schwer begeistert.
Wir haben das schöne Albanien als Selbstfahrer entdeckt und haben uns über die gute Organisation, die gut ausgewählten Hotels und die stets vorhandene Helpline im Hintergrund gefreut. Das allerschönste war die offene Freundlichkeit der Menschen, die wir kennengelernt haben. Eine sehr gelungene Reise, herzlichen Dank.
Viaggio andato alla perfezione grazie alla professionalità di Sara. Itinerario perfetto, abbiamo visto tantissime cose, e Sara é stata sempre disponibile. Ci siamo sentite pure di sabato e dimenica. Grazie
Albania es un país precioso, todo verde y con lugares con historia. Nuestra guía Voltisa la mejor, super recomendada y nos enseñó en profundidad todo sobre su país. y tambien Rusana encantadora y con mucha paciencia para resolver mis dudas del viaje. Muy recomendable.
We spent four days walking the Accursed Mountains in Albania and Kosovo. We were provided with a guide who himself had been born and bred in Albania. Not only was he able to guide us on the walks, but he had a thorough local knowledge of the flairs and fauna, as well as the cultural customs of the local people. Whilst the walks we did could be quite strenuous, the scenery and the shepherds huts we stayed in made it all worth while. The Albanian hospitality was second to none, and the food some of the best we have ever eaten. At the end of the holiday we felt a huge sense of achievement and it has certainly raised the bar for future trips. We cannot thank enough Ed and his team from *** - and in particular a big thanks to Nic our guide, Mephmut the horse handler and Dorri the horse (who carried our bags).
Die Vorabstimmungen mit Martin zur Reiseplanungen waren sehr hilfreich. Die Route war sehr gut ausgewählt. Vor Ort hat alles wunderbar funktioniert. Vielen Dank an dieser Stelle für die Wiederbeschaffung des verlorenen Handys. Unser Fahrer war superfreundlich und hat uns sehr besonnen durch den albanischen Verkehr gelenkt. Er hat uns mit allen wichtigen und interessanten Informationen zu Land und Kultur versorgt. Es war eine sehr angenehme Reise mit ihm. Die ausgewählten Restaurants und Weinproben waren sehr interessant und lecker. Besonders begeistert hat uns Alfred mit einem sensationellen 9 Gänge Menü. Albanien hat uns sehr gut gefallen. Dazu beigetragen hat die perfekte Organisation von Martin und das ausgewählte Team aus Fahrer und Stadtführer! Vielen Dank dafür.
Personal sehr professionell. Unser Führer, der Französisch und Englisch konnte, hat uns viel über das Land beigebracht.
Das Land ist wunderschön, die Menschen sind sehr gastfreundlich. Die Organisation durch ******* hat bestens funktioniert, alle Termine (Guides, Transfers, Mietwagenübergabe) wurden pünktlichst eingehalten, die Guides waren alle ausgezeichnet. Wir wurden in allen Hotels ohne Vorlage von Vouchers bereits erwartet. Die Hotels waren alle sehr sauber, teilweise ausgesprochen hübsch, teilweise nicht so ganz nach unseren Vorstellungen, was den Komfort angeht.
Aunque tuvimos un incidente con la reserva de la primera noche en Tirana que fue resuelta por la agencia el viaje con guia-conductor nos permitió conocer bien parte de Albania que tiene zonas muy interesantes y otras mejorables además de un desarrollo turistico algo caotico y excesivo
Este destino es increíble para disfrutarlo por 10 días y darle la vuelta al país. Aunque si lo volviera a hacer, tal vez dejaría un día más para disfrutar en la Riviera Albanesa, para disfrutar más de las playas tan hermosas de la zona. Prescindiría tal vez de ir a los baños termales porque está lleno de gente y no respetan el entorno natural.
Hemos hecho un viaje a medida para un grupo de 5, visitando Montenegro y Albania durante 8 días. Nuestra experiencia ha sido de veras muy positiva. La agencia local de Megi ha programado la ruta y ha hecho un seguimiento constante para que se cumpliera el programa al completo. Hemos podido conocer y visitar en profundidad ciudades y pueblos, disfrutando además de la gastronomía y la hospitalidad de sus gentes. Especial mención para nuestro guía conductor Igli. Habla muy bien español. Es educado y tiene una gran formación en historia, además de ser un conductor excelente, algo fundamental en este viaje. Ha sido un acompañante de 10 en todos los sentidos. También la guia local con quien visitamos Budva y Kotor era de gran nivel. En resumen, un viaje inolvidable.
Albanien ist ein Land mit herzlichen Menschen, schönen Landschaften und einer interessanten, vielseitigen Geschichte. Leider gibt es auch die Kehrseite, die einen traurig macht. Das ist die Umweltverschmutzung durch eine schlecht funktionierende Abfallentsorgung und einen Plastikflaschenverbrauch, der kein Pfandsystem kennt. Man muss bereit sein diese Seiten zu akzeptieren, wenn man in ein solches Land reist.
Ich wollte eine erste Erfahrung mit dem Land machen, damit ich ganz gezielte nächste Reise nach Albanien angehen kann.
Despite the tight schedule, our local contact went out of his way to put together the best possible trip for us in a short amount of time; although there were a few minor issues, the trip was still a great success and we really enjoyed it. The service was thoroughly professional, friendly, and very helpful.
Il viaggio è stato progettato secondo le nostre esigenze di tempo e preferenze su cosa vedere. L'agenzia di Sara ha quindi preparato un itinerario di base con i giusti suggerimenti per noi, personalizzabile in ogni aspetto. Durante il viaggio l'agenzia è sempre stata in contatto con noi per sapere se tutto stesse andando bene. È stata quindi un'esperienza piacevole e rilassante. Infine riguardo al paese visitato, vi sono delle città storiche e dei siti molto interessanti, oltre a persone accoglienti. L'Albania a nostro parere è sicuramente una nazione da visitare
Eine sehr schönen Reise. Alles war gut organisiert. Die Vorortbetreuung war da, wenn man sie brauchte. Gerne wieder!
Es hat alles gepaßt, das Land ist wunderschön.
We would have liked a couple more days in some places while others, like Prizren aren't worth spending a night.
Sehr guter Tourenvorschlag, bestens ausgearbeitet. Alle unsere Wünsche wurden berücksichtigt unf erfüllt. Gerne wieder!!!
War eine tolle Reise! Kleine Änderungen waren unkompliziert möglich. Toller Fahrer. Eine unserer besten Reisen!
Wir erhielten eine tolle Route mit vielen guten Hinweisen. Das Beste war ein Smartphone, mit dem wir navigieren, telefonieren und Rücksprache mit unserem Reisebüro nehmen konnten. Elvira war für unsere Reise zuständig. Ein großes Lob für Sie!

Todo perfecto. Organización y guías que nos pusieron en los lugares más destacados muy bien también. El coche que nos buscaron para movernos por el país también perfecto para un grupo de 9. Genial !
Martin hat uns eine interessante und facettenreiche Reise für Albanieneinsteiger zusammengestellt. Der Kontakt war jederzeit freundlich, hilfsbereit und professionell. Alle organisierten Unterkünfte und sonstigen Leistungen haben einwandfrei funktioniert. Die Guides bei den Stadtführungen waren kenntnisreich und sehr sympathisch.
Wir haben uns für eine selbstständige Reise mit Mietwagen durch das Land entschieden. Das hat sich dann als die richtige Entscheidung erwiesen, denn dank der guten Unterlagen und etwas Vorbereitung konnte man sich sehr gut allein zurechtfinden. Und bei Bedarf war es nie ein Problem, freundliche Menschen zu finden, die einem die notwendigen Auskünfte gaben. Wir werden noch zetinah einen etwas ausführlicheren Reisebericht verfassen und Ihnen zukommen lassen. Insgesamt waren wir mit Inalb und dem kompetenten und freundlichen Team in Albanien völlig zufrieden. Danke für die gute Vorbereitung.
Todo muy bien planificado y coordinado. Muy atentos cuando se les necesito. Tuvimos un problema con el hotel de la primera noche y aun siendo las dos de la mañana. Estuvieron hay para resolvernos el problema
Unsere Reise wurde sehr professionell geplant und organisiert. Wir haben in Albanien einen sehr zuverlässigen und freundlichen 24/7 Support erhalten. Wir haben uns sehr gut aufgehoben gefühlt und können den Service uneingeschränkt empfehlen.
Hicimos un tour privado. La organizacion y planteamienrto del recorrido lo hizo Megi, de la agencia local ***, con un resultado de 10. El guia-xofer que nos asignaron, Roland-Roy, fué estupendo. Tenia una gran formación histórica y cultural del pais. Las explicaciones en las visitas fueron intesantísimas gracias a él. Otro 10. En cuanto al itinerario comentar que si lo tuvirra que repetir, cambiaria el sur, Ribiera Albanesa, por el norte, ya que a pesar de que es precioso, viniendo de un pais con tanta costa, playas, calas etc… no nos sorprendió tanto. En definitiva , organizacion y guia insuperable.

Sin lugar a dudas muy buena experiencia con nuestra agente Megi. Desde el minuto adaptó el viaje a nuestras necesidades y lo cambió las veces necesarias. Durante el viaje nos ha prestado sus servicios en todo momento. Estamos muy agradecidos.
Wir waren zwei Wochen mit sehr kompetenten und netten Guides in Albanien und Montenegro unterwegs. Die Reise war maßgeschneidert. Wir haben von den Erfahrungen und Lokalkenntnissen der Guides sehr profitiert (u.a. den besten Aussichtspunkt, der kleine Umweg mit den besseren Ausblicken, das kleine Fischrestaurant am Rande der Route, den/das man als Tourist nicht gefunden hätte). Viele Unterkünfte waren von ihrer Art bzw. Lage einzigartig und mit Bedacht ausgewählt. Höhepunkte der Reise waren aus unserer Sicht der Skadar See, die Bucht von Kotor, die albanischen Alpen sowie die alten Städte (Kotor, Berat, Kruja und Gjirokastra)
Der Reise war gut organisiert unser Kontakte vor Ort immer schnell zur Verfügung. Jedoch waren uns im allgemeinen die ausgewählten Orte zu touristisch und das Preisniveau entsprechend hoch. Wir hätten uns mehr Ruhe und 'Geheimtipps' gewünscht, sofern es das in Albanien noch gibt.
Ein Reiseleiter nur für uns! Das war das besondere an unserer Reise. Dies war unser Wunsch, die Agentur hat uns diesen Wunsch erfüllt. Die Planung war super, sie sind jederzeit auf unsere Wünsche eingegangen. Die Durchführung hat gezeigt, dass echte Profis geplant haben. Es hat alles geklappt. Tolle Hotels, die Fahrzeiten waren realisitisch, uns wurde eine wundervolle Natur gezeigt, wir haben sehr gut und vorallem traditionell gegessen und wir haben tolle Einblicke in das Leben in Albanien erhalten. Albanien ist ein weltoffenes Land und zumindest in Punkto Internet/WLAN können wir eine Menge lernen. Es ist überall verfügbar.
Precioso viaje, por la cultura latente, la gastronomía, los paisajes, los hoteles casi todos perfectos, las cenas incluidas muy buenas y abundantes, y lo más de lo más nuestra guía ***, maravillosa, conocedora de su trabajo, cariñosa, educada, una profesional, y nuestro conductor *** lo mejor de Albania, y mención especial el apoyo de la Agencia, Vilma, antes y en el transcurso del viaje, interesandose siempre por el buen funcionamiento del viaje. Y muy agradecidos y sorprendidos por el obsequio que nos hicieron al terminar la ruta, sin duda es para recomendar en todos los aspectos
Ha sido un viaje muy bonito pero las distancias son muy largas en coche.Jemos pasado 12 días muy buenos y el chofer fue muy atento y eficiente
Mir wurde eine Autotour als Biketour verkauft. Für dringende Änderungen musste ich einen überhöhten Nachpreis bezahlen
Ya estamos de vuelta en Madrid. Todo perfecto. Rigers, un gran guía.
Super geplante Reise. Der Guide hat uns pünktlich abgeholt und war mega. Wir haben uns sehr gefreut, von Sajmir auf der Tour begleitet zu werden. Wir haben viele tolle Hintergrundinfos bekommen. Er spricht fließend Englisch und Deutsch. Es war ein toller Urlaub in Albanien Dank Sajmir.
unsere reise war individuell und ganz nach unseren wünschen zusammen gestellt. mit ganz viel know how und liebe zum detail. wir hatten einen klasse guide, mit dem es uns viel spaß gemacht hat.
I was not able to make the trip but all my team members loved it
Everyhing was personilized, it took me and Mira 2 weeks to agree on the best trip possible for me and my family and before arriving in Albania I was a bit worries that having many activities and places to visi on our own would be a bit difficultvut actually me an my wife were well taken care of everywhere we went and we would join local guides and people in every stop. All very well organized by Mira and Inalb.
