And when in search of a break from the noise? Take a hike to Mount Dajti.

You can have a short, relaxing ride with the cable car Dajti Express, from where the views are the best that you will get over Tirana. Be it your urge to trek or just sit with a cup of coffee, the fresh air and the lap of greenery will definitely refresh you.

With the city situated by the sea, it becomes the easiest of pleasures to attend to some needed dentistry while enjoying a beachside vacation. If history fascinates you, Durres has a lot to offer. There is the old Roman amphitheatre in the city—the largest in the Balkans—a place where you can have fun exploring the compound. At the end of it all, you can head to a beachfront restaurant to taste some fresh seafood as you view the setting sun.

Exploring the gems of North Albania:🔗

Just off this lake are some friendly local family-run guesthouses that will provide comfortable sleeping and tasty traditional Albanian food for a good night's sleep.

If you are an adventurous kind of person, then rafting in the Drin River or Fan River is for you. Both have stunning views and highly turbulent rapids. If you love hiking or cycling, the Accursed Mountains have one of the most beautiful paths between Valbona and Theth. Other good places for outdoor fun are Lura National Park, Lake Shkodra, Koman, and the grand mountains of Vermosh.

In the coastal cities like Durrës and Vlora, great seafood is offered, such as Grilled Sea Bass and Seafood Risotto, with a glass of local wine. Inland, heartier dishes such as Fërgesë (baked vegetables and cheese) and Qofte (meatballs), dominate menus in cities like Shkodra and Krujë. These dishes reflect the North's rugged, hilly landscape.

Going south, the cuisine shifts with local specialties such as Pasha Qofte, or meatball soup, originating from Gjirokastër, and Japrak, stuffed grape leaves, found in both Berat and Korçë. Albanian meals are always finished with something sweet, such as Baklava or the famous Trilece, a soft, milky cake.
