Beautiful Albania - the country of mountains, sunshine, great hospitality, history, and amazing food. Worth to visit local wineries. Very safe to travel. The perfect place for a weekend getaway in November.

My experience in this city was amazing. I loved every bit of it, from great local food, beautiful beaches and architecture to some of the kindest people. In the past few years more and more tourists are coming so the prices might be getting a bit expensive, but it is still a very good place if youre traveling on a budget. I wouldn't necessarily recommend walking alone at night judging by the amount of men honking and catcalling even durring sunlight, however, I would still rank it amongst the safest places I've stayed.

We spent a week traveling in Albania and discovered that the most beautiful places were often the ones we had to search for or simply found by chance. Around Durrës, there are stunning beaches, and we also visited an amazing farm that is really worth the trip. The local people were very kind and friendly.

Honestly I felt very safe The only part of the town that felt off was near the bridge on the way to the lake, there were some buildings in poor condition with not very nice men saying some stuff as I passed by. But I was on a bicycle (recommend the same, otherwise it’s too much to walk), and it didn’t bother it at all even though it was in the evening In the center of the town it was very good, also at night

I found Albania relatively safe. Since I came from Rio de Janeiro, I always end up being very careful on the streets, just like I do at home. Like not walking alone at night, not using cellphones too much on the street, etc. I didn't see anything too serious and I even found the people to be quite polite. But I've always been careful.

Its one of the least scary citys in Albania. And its fairly safe for woman. You will experience lots of catcalling tho. I suggest asking female locals questions if you have some for the city or even asking for their helo if you feel like you are being followed. We got your back!

About me
Hi! My name is Klea and I am from Albania. This past year I’ve gotten too much into traveling but I got tired of waiting for people so I decided to take my first solo trip:) I am mostly an outdoor person, but on the other hand I do like me a good club. I like spontaneous decisions and like living on the spot
