Quartz: Albania among Europe’s destinations where quality exceeds price

TIRANA, June 26 – US magazine Quartz reports that Albania ranks among the 10 most affordable international destinations for this period. It highlights the country as one of Europe’s biggest tourism surprises. It cites its coastline, mountains and low costs.

According to Quartz, travellers can save significantly when they choose the right destination and travel outside peak season. At the same time, they do not lose travel quality. Albania stands out as a place where affordability and quality meet.

Meanwhile, Quartz describes Albania as an emerging European destination for beach and nature tourism. It notes that the country has not yet become a mass tourism market. As a result, prices remain lower than in many comparable destinations.

In addition, the Albanian Riviera on the Ionian Sea stands out for its clear waters and coastal villages. Quartz compares it to Greek islands and the Italian Adriatic coast. It also highlights much lower prices. In the north, it points to the Albanian Alps. It notes hiking and cycling routes and strong mountain landscapes.

Quartz also highlights low travel costs. Airbnb accommodation averages around 50 US dollars per night. Lunch costs fall below 10 dollars. In addition, the report notes the absence of inflated tourist pricing. This strengthens Albania’s position as a low-cost European destination.

Furthermore, Quartz highlights Tirana. It describes transformed communist-era architecture and colorful façades. It also points to a lively café culture and a young population.

Quartz includes Albania in a list of affordable destinations. The list also features Hanoi, Luang Prabang, Tunisia, Armenia and Panama City.
