Tirana: Dive into Albania's Rich Culture & History | Complete Travel Guide

Ep.123 If you are interested in a European vacation but have sticker shock from some of the prices of the more popular places to visit, Tirana, Albania will be a breath of fresh air.  This formerly communist country has been getting a makeover since the 1990s and learning about its complex history was fascinating. We were inspired by the resilience of the Albanian people after decades of oppression and our tastebuds loved discovering the flavors of Albanian foods while also enjoying plenty of Italian, Greek, and Turkish delights, too. We spent an easy, comfortable month here, and if you need to get out of the Schengen zone, Tirana is a great escape—we bumped into several fellow travelers here!  Don’t skip this episode: we tell you EVERYTHING you need to know and our TOP 10 things to see while you’re here. We include all our prices, too! ❤️ Watch us on YouTube!
