Albania has been near the top of Chris’s list for some time, with its Roman, Ottoman, Fascist and Communist history as well as its natural beauty. It has been possible to travel here since 1990 when Albania opened its borders, but it remains challenging to get around for the independent traveller, especially one with a dodgy ankle, so we were delighted to be introduced to Exoticca Holidays by a friend. Their small group tour includes all the places we wanted to see as well as flights, accommodation and transport so with no planning needed, we can sit back and enjoy the ride.
It is our wedding anniversary while we are away, on the one day that we will be staying at the seaside, so we have our fingers crossed that we will be able to arrange a short boat ride to celebrate in the usual way!
This is a first for us, to go away on an organised tour, but as Chris pointed out, otherwise we wouldn’t be going to Albania at all so off we go!
