Description
Begin your journey with a convenient pickup from your accommodation or a nearby meeting point in Tirana or Durrës. As you travel to the Albanian Riviera, enjoy scenic views of Albania's changing landscapes, from rolling hills to beautiful coastline. Make two short rest stops along the way to stretch your legs, use the restroom, grab a coffee, or purchase snacks before continuing south.
Arrive in Saranda, one of Albania's most popular seaside destinations. Enjoy a 30-minute photo stop, giving you enough time to admire the panoramic views of the Ionian Sea, take memorable photos along the promenade, and experience the lively atmosphere of this charming Mediterranean town.
Continue to Ksamil, often described as the jewel of the Albanian Riviera. With its white sandy beaches, crystal-clear turquoise waters, and small offshore islands, Ksamil is one of the most beautiful beach destinations in Europe. Enjoy approximately three hours of free time to swim, relax on the beach, walk along the coastline, enjoy lunch at a seaside restaurant, or explore the village.
For an even more memorable experience, join an optional boat tour (additional cost) to explore the nearby islands, discover hidden beaches, swim in even more spectacular turquoise waters, and enjoy the incredible coastline from the sea.
Next, head to the world-famous Blue Eye Natural Spring, one of Albania's most fascinating natural wonders. Spend approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes here, allowing you plenty of time to walk through the surrounding forest, admire the spring from different viewpoints, take beautiful photographs, and enjoy the peaceful natural environment.
After visiting the Blue Eye, begin your comfortable return journey to Tirana and Durrës. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the scenic drive as you head back to the same location where you were picked up earlier in the day.
