Albania is located in southeastern Europe, on the Balkan Peninsula. It borders Montenegro, North Macedonia, and Greece, and it also boasts coastlines along the Adriatic and Ionian Seas.
Albania is generally considered a safe destination for travelers. The country has made significant improvements in security and infrastructure over the past few years, and visitors typically enjoy a welcoming atmosphere along with beautiful landscapes and rich cultural heritage. As with any travel destination, it's wise to take standard precautions such as safeguarding personal belongings and staying informed about local conditions through travel advisories.
Any time of year is good for visiting Albania. That said, the temperatures are warm and pleasant from May through September, making it perfect for enjoying the coast and the Albanian Riviera. Alternatively, autumn is ideal for exploring cities and mountains with fewer crowds.
The official currency is the Albanian lek, though the Euro is sometimes accepted in tourist areas.
Visa requirements for Albania depend on your nationality. Many travelers, including U.S. citizens, Canadians, and most European Union nationals, can enter Albania without a visa for short stays—usually up to 90 days within a 180-day period—for tourism purposes. However, citizens of certain countries must obtain a visa prior to arrival. It's important to verify the specific requirements for your nationality by consulting the nearest Albanian embassy or consulate or checking official government websites, as policies may change.
