運転先 Albania

Albania offers an extraordinary driving adventure through one of Europe's last undiscovered gems. The Albanian Riviera stretches along the Ionian coast, featuring pristine beaches like Dhermi, Himara, and Ksamil with crystal-clear turquoise waters rivaling the Caribbean. Drive the winding coastal road from Saranda to Vlora for breathtaking views of dramatic cliffs plunging into the sea.

Explore the UNESCO World Heritage sites of Berat and Gjirokastra, known as the "City of a Thousand Windows" and the "City of Stone" respectively. These Ottoman-era towns showcase remarkable architecture with traditional stone houses climbing hillsides. The ancient ruins of Butrint near Saranda date back 2,500 years through Greek, Roman, and Byzantine periods.

Albanian cuisine delights with traditional dishes like Byrek (savory pastry), Tavë Kosi (lamb with yogurt), and fresh seafood along the coast. Local hospitality follows the ancient Besa code of honor, ensuring visitors receive warm welcomes everywhere.

Roads in Albania have improved significantly, though mountain routes can be challenging. An International Driving Permit is recommended for car rentals. Drive carefully on narrow mountain passes, and fill up on fuel in larger towns as rural stations can be scarce.
