Why a minibus with a driver in Tirana

Downtown traffic, difficult parking and one-way streets make driving in Tirana tiring for anyone who doesn’t know the city. With a minibus and driver, your whole group travels together: you enjoy the city, while the driver takes care of the road.

  • Your whole group and luggage in one vehicle, up to 19 passengers
  • A professional driver who knows the streets and neighborhoods of Tirana
  • Pickup and drop-off at your hotel, office or any address in the city
  • A schedule that follows your program, without waiting for taxis

What you can do with a minibus in Tirana

  • Airport transfer: it takes about 30 minutes from Tirana Airport to the city center. You’ll find the fixed price on the Airport – Tirana transfer page.
  • City tour: Skanderbeg Square, the National History Museum, the Pyramid, Bunk’Art and the Blloku district, with stops wherever you like.
  • Mount Dajti: to the Dajti Ekspres cable car station, or by minibus up the mountain, for views over the whole city.
  • Business trips and events: transport for companies, conferences and weddings in Tirana.

Day trips from Tirana

Tirana is the ideal starting point for group excursions. These are the most popular, with approximate travel times from the city center:

  • Kruja and Mount Dajti, about 1 hour: Skanderbeg’s castle and the old bazaar of Kruja, then the view over all of Tirana from Dajti. See minibus with driver in Kruja.
  • Lake Bovilla, about 1 hour: the lake with emerald water among the mountains, with the trail up to the viewpoint above it.
  • Berat, about 2 hours: the city of a thousand windows and its inhabited castle, on the UNESCO list. See minibus with driver in Berat.
  • Boat trip in Vlora, about 2.5 hours: the minibus takes you to the boats in Vlora and waits for you after the trip to Karaburun, Haxhi Ali Cave and Sazan Island. See minibus with driver in Vlora.
  • Berat and Gjirokastra, a long day: the two UNESCO cities in one trip; for more time in each, we recommend a night in Gjirokastra. See minibus with driver in Gjirokastra.
  • The Blue Eye, about 4 hours: the spring with deep blue water in the middle of the forest, near Saranda; a long day that’s easy to combine with Ksamil. See minibus with driver in Saranda.
  • Ksamil, about 4 hours 45 minutes: turquoise water, small islands and Butrint nearby; a long day, or better with a night on the coast. See minibus with driver in Ksamil.

For longer excursions, we set off early in the morning. For tours with several nights around Albania, see multi-day minibus rental with driver.
