What you'll see
Your journey with our private transfer service from Tirana to Vlorë begins as you're greeted by your professional driver outside your chosen location in Tirana, be it a hotel lobby or the bustling city center.
As you settle into the comfort of your luxurious, air-conditioned vehicle, the urban landscape of Tirana, with its colorful buildings, historical sites like Skanderbeg Square, and the vibrant life of the Blloku district, slowly fades into the backdrop. Leaving the city, you'll venture into the Albanian countryside.
The route unfolds through rolling hills and quaint villages, offering glimpses of rural Albanian life. You might catch sight of farmers tending to their fields or livestock grazing peacefully, showcasing a timeless agricultural tradition.
As you approach the halfway mark, the landscape subtly shifts; the terrain becomes more rugged, hinting at the proximity to the coast. You'll pass through Lushnjë, a small town that serves as a gateway to the coastal region, where the scent of the sea begins to mingle with the air. Continuing your journey, the road starts to descend, revealing panoramic views of the Adriatic Sea.
The azure waters contrast beautifully with the green of the hills, creating a picturesque drive. Here, you'll feel the transition from the continental climate to the Mediterranean, with olive groves and citrus orchards dotting the landscape. Arriving in Vlorë, the city welcomes you with its palm-lined streets and the first sight of the marina.
Your driver will take you directly to your destination within Vlorë, whether it's the independence monument, a beachfront hotel, or a quaint seaside café where you can taste fresh seafood.
Throughout this seamless transfer, enjoy the comfort of Wi-Fi on board, complimentary refreshments, and the flexibility to make stops along the way for photos or a quick stretch. Your driver, knowledgeable about local history and sights, can offer insights or remain discreet, according to your preference.
