This video rapresentsAlbania very well, but so sad that you didnt visit and Shkodra too, the bigest city in nprth Albania , a wounderful city , full of history , nature and archictetcture also.
@@vasibasha7840 Shkodra looks wonderful! We will visit this summer ☺️ I might include it in my next video about Albania ☺️
@@KristiTravelEscape Thank you, Shkodra is my native city iand because of politics is under rated and there is no pubblicity for this city like for other parts of Albania.
Good video, but you FORGOT to include in this video some WONDERFUL places that I FULLY RECOMMEND TO VISIT, they are:
1. SHKODRA in the North of Albania,
2. DHERMI in the South,
3. HIMARA in the South,
4. LLOGORA Mountains in the South (road from Vlora to Saranda, road around the coast),
5. KORQA and Pogradec too.
And I recommend everyone to visit what is known as the "ROAD OF THE NATION" in the direction of Kosovo.
Hi, thanks for sharing all the tips! ☺️ I couldn’t include everything in a 12-day itinerary, but these are great options for people who will have a longer time for their trip. I absolutely loved the Llogara Pass ❤️. Dhermi was beautiful, but in my experience, it was very crowded, as it's not a very large beach and businesses are limited outside of the season, so I decided not to include it. But thank you for listing it; at least people might Google it and adjust their itinerary based on your suggestions ❤️☺️.
As romanian, I love Albania so much

WOWWW!!! which month is this? wow!!! wow!!
Hi, thank you so much. ❤️ As we have an apartment in Albania and we travel there quite a lo, some of the shots were shot in May some of them in June and some of them in September. In general, the best time to visit Albania, is in late spring or early autumn as the weather is beautiful and you can avoid crowds. Most people travel to Albania in July and August. 😊
aem to mush like mi love ❤️
So nice Vlog and informative. Can you tell me which camera you use in this vlog.
Thank you! ☺️ I shoot everything on an iPhone 14 Pro Max and for underwater shots, I use GoPro. Plus drones - DJI Mini 3 and Avata ☺️
@KristiTravelEscape Thank you, Kristi. I'm also a vloger channel named TAB Travel Vlog and have business in Saudi Arabia and live in Pakistan also. If you make a plan to visit Saudi Arabia or Pakistan, then I will welcome you as my special guest.
@@GemTv-gf8jx perfect, thanks! We can do some collab! ☺️
🤩🤩👋💟
🙋🏼♀️☺️🥰
Great Job , you forgot lake of Koman , manastir of Ardenice , Apollonia , liqeni i Ohrit ,pogradec.
Thank you! Going to that lake next time in July! ☺️💕
Hi Kristi, thank you for the great video, this is a truly perfect itinerary! My question would concern public transport. We would like to visit Albania but we don't really drive. Is it possible to plan such a diverse itinerary as yours but only using public transport? What are your thoughts? Thank you!
Hi, honestly, I have never tried it with public transportation, so I am not sure. Albania is developing and they are currently building a train in some parts of the country, but I am not sure if it is possible. Try to use google maps, they are usually very good when it comes to public transportation. ☺️
Vey informative vedio ..ty what is the background music in the viedo can you post the name of these songs ty
Hi, they were all from Epidemic sound ☺️
What a beautiful place.. wow 👌 I like your video 😊 please come to visit India 🇮🇳 someday 😊 I'm a small creator here in India west Bengal
Hi fellow creator! 💕 I would love to come to India, it is defintely high on my list! Hope to get there soon ☺️ love to India
@@KristiTravelEscape 😊
Hi, I am planning a trip to Albania around July and wanted to know if you can send the hike you did. I tried looking at the picture of the map but can quite see/understand what is written.
Hi mate. The hike is in Theth..North Albania. If you go to Theth make sure you visit Shala river as well wich is not that far from Theth
What time did you visit Albania? It looks really chill, that there aren't that many tourists.
Right now bro. You have 20 days left :)
We have an apartment there, so we have been there many times. We shot the mountains in the north at the end of September, the south with beaches in June, and some of the cities in May ☺️
Where did u buy the red dress with white flowers? Its so cute 😍😍😍
Omg thank you ❤️ it was Mango, but 3 years ago 🙈
Hi do you have the map of the route you took in Theth please, we are planning to visit in 2 days! 😃😃
Hi, sorry for my late response! The screenshot of the map is in the video! ☺️ It is 16:01. Have fun! ❤️
Gout
👌🏼☺️
Beautiful Albania ❤❤❤
Stunning! 💕
Hi my fraind 👋
Hello! ☺
Faleminderit per pasqyrimin e vendit tone. Vetem informacionin per Butrintin nuk e keni te sakte. Butrinti nuk eshte histori dhe kulture greke por Ilire.
LOVE IT ! how to rent a car for good prices at the airport ?
Hi, thank you so much! I would recommend to do it online and well in advance ☺️
What time of the year were you there?
We have an apartment there, so we have been there many times. I shot the mountains in the north at the end of September, the south with beaches in June, and some of the cities in May ☺️
Can you please link the map of your hiking trail in theth?
Butrint was never Greek it’s an Illyrian, Epirus settlement 🇦🇱👍🏼
👍🏻 The whole Balkans in ancient times was called Illyrian peninsula ( Illyricum )
Sorry for the misinterpretation, thanks for the correction! ☺️
👍🇦🇱
💕
Good video, but you FORGOT to include in this video some WONDERFUL places that.
I FULLY RECOMMEND TO VISIT, and:
1. SHKODRA in the North of Albania,
2. DHERMI in the South,
3. HIMARA in the South,
4. LLOGORA in the South,
5. KORQA and Pogradec too.
And I recommend everyone to visit what is known as the "ROAD OF THE NATION" in the direction of Kosovo.
🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷
Some tip about rent a car in Albania?
Yes, my recommendation would be to get a car from a reputable company directly at the airport (but book it online in advance for a better price) ☺️. We rented a car from smaller companies, and in one instance, the AC stopped working, and in another, the car stopped altogether. It's definitely not worth skimping on this. For example, ARA is a good option ☺️
po Shqipëria është një vend i bukur, unë jam nga Kosova
Hi
You missed two of the nicest things of North Albania 🇦🇱 one you should’ve stopped and explored The city of Shkodra and second you should’ve gone to Lumi Shales and Valbone which they all a must I expect a video on all three now 😂
Haha, I think I am actually going there in July ☺️ I promise, I will vlog there! 🥰
@@KristiTravelEscape best time of the year definitely 👌 go to Shkodra as a start then head to the mountains don’t forget the hike from theth to valbona and then get a boat to lumi shales

👌🏼☺️
Apparently you never came across diaries of Lord Byron and Edward Leer and their writings ✍️ of Albania
I have not 😇
Hi kristi,is it danger as we hear a lot bad things about Albania?
Hi, absolutely not! Albania used to have a bad reputation, especially in the '90s. That is not the case anymore. Albania is now considered a safe tourist destination. I felt very safe all the time, and you will soon find out that the locals are very kind and generous. ☺️
Thank you,so relieved now as Albania it has been on my bucket list for a while now.🙏
@@Ash-ov5lx I would say that now is the best time to go ☺️. Albania is getting more and more popular and I see more tourists there each year. Hurry before it gets touristy and crowded ☺️
I would love to but I have some other plans at the moment.you are so right I went to Croatia there was lots of turists so over crowded it wasn’t enjoyable.
@@Ash-ov5lx one day maybe ☺️. Exactly, Croatia is beautiful, but tourism took all over the place 🫣

Albania 🇦🇱 🇦🇱 🇦🇱 🇦🇱 🇦🇱 🇦🇱 🇦🇱 🇦🇱 🇦🇱 🇦🇱 🇦🇱 🇦🇱 🇦🇱 Haters always be Haters. You just hate the fact that we have beautiful nature beautiful beaches and better climate
Cope 🥵
That's like 10% of everything Albania can offer
The aim of this video was to show the highlights of Albania and suggest the perfect itinerary for 12 days visit ☺️. Of course, you could spend 2 months there and still see amazing places 💕
Hi,
Wonderfull Video and you have shown the best of it....
And Please dont say any more about " Buntrint " That, there were the Greeks.... Thats not True and every can find out that easily on our age. It is a big lie m. There were the Pelasgians and their Language , we The Albanians we still Speak that Language..
The Sience in USA has improved that Albanian Language is 6000 Years old...
Hi, thank you very much, and I am sorry if I misinterpreted that. Thanks for pointing out the correct facts! 💕
You are Beautiful 😻 😘
I appreciate it, thank you! ❤️
Go to east java
I will! 🙃
For people who are asking if Albania 🇦🇱 is dangerous....
Yes Albania 🇦🇱 its very dangerous......we have porridge for breakfast but for lunch and dinner we eat people 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Albania 🇦🇱 is one of the safest places on the planet for tourist unless you are looking for trouble....
I can confirm that I felt absolutely safe in Albania all the time. No needs to worry guys, not at all. ☺️
Visit india
One day I will for sure! ☺️
Butrint is Ilirian has nothing to do with greek
Yes, you are right, my mistake 😇
