Have you ever seen a band just before they made it big? That’s exactly what Albania feels like right now—still affordable, still intimate, and still a bit of a secret. With beautiful beaches, great prices, and a welcoming policy for Americans, this misunderstood Balkan nation is quickly gaining buzz.
It’s already going viral on TikTok, and it won’t be long before the crowds catch on. Albania gets about 300 days of sun in some areas, making it the perfect escape for sun-chasers. And here’s a major perk for U.S. travelers: Albania is not in the Schengen Zone, which means you can stay longer in Europe without overstaying your welcome.
What started as a simple visa run for us turned into something much more—we fell in love with the place. So if you want to experience Albania before the prices rise and the masses show up, now’s the time to go. This country is about to blow up—and you’ll want to say you saw it before the world did.
