About the Company
Aria Travel Albania is a Boutique Tour Operator that specializes in organizing trips and tours in Albania and Western Balkan countries.
Why Choose Aria Travel Albania?
Travel is more than moving from place to place — it’s about connection, comfort, and authenticity. At Aria Travel Albania, we design tours that go beyond the ordinary, offering travelers a deeper, more meaningful way to experience Albania and the Balkans.
Our tours are designed to feel exclusive and personal, yet remain accessible to travelers who value comfort and authenticity without overspending. We believe luxury doesn’t have to mean unreachable — it’s about traveling in comfort, enjoying authentic encounters, and creating memories that last.
Small Groups, Big Experiences
By keeping our groups small — limited to just 6–7 travelers — we offer the intimacy and exclusivity of a private tour, while keeping prices fair and affordable. You’ll travel in Mercedes V‑Class luxury vans, enjoying spacious comfort and premium service. Our certified multilingual guides share stories, answer questions, and adapt to your interests, creating “Ask me anything about Albania” moments that make every journey personal.
Authentic & Premium Touches
Every journey balances premium touches with genuine connections to local people and places. You’ll enjoy lunch at a family home, experiencing Albania through local eyes, and taste beers and wines at the best regional breweries and wineries. Skip‑the‑line museum tickets ensure stress‑free exploration. To make your memories last, we gift you complimentary photos and videos of your tour.
Slow & Hidden Albania
We focus on authenticity and memorability, ensuring that travelers enjoy Albania and the Balkans in comfort, without the crowds or inflated costs. Our Slow Albania philosophy means fewer stops and deeper experiences, while Hidden Albania itineraries take you into villages, traditions, and nature off the beaten path — places big bus tours simply can’t reach.
Our approach combines exclusivity with affordability: you’ll feel like a guest of honor, not just another passenger. Every tour is designed to support local businesses, families, and artisans, so your travel directly benefits the communities you visit.
Our Promise
We want our tours to be memorable for the right reasons — authentic encounters, comfortable travel, and fair pricing that makes premium experiences accessible. Whether you’re exploring Albania’s beaches, vibrant cities, cultural heritage, or majestic mountains, or venturing into the Balkans, Aria Travel Albania delivers authentic, sustainable, and premium travel experiences.

Posted on PATRICIA O14 March 2026Verified Wonderful Balkan Private Tour My husband and I are Canadian seniors who recently completed a private Balkan tour organized by Ara Travel in Albania, and we could not be more pleased with the experience. From the beginning, the company was wonderful to work with. They were very flexible and accommodating, gladly accepting our itinerary and making thoughtful adjustments to ensure everything worked smoothly. Our guide, Albert (“Bertie”), was absolutely outstanding and truly made the trip special. As seniors with some mobility challenges, we deeply appreciated his patience, kindness, and constant attentiveness. He was always ready to help with luggage and bags and made sure we were comfortable at every step of the journey. What really set Bertie apart was his remarkable knowledge. His understanding of the region’s history, politics, and current events was exceptional, and he shared it in such an engaging way that we learned an enormous amount about every country we visited. He also added wonderful personal touches to the trip. Each day he introduced us to local treats and took us to authentic local restaurants, just as we had hoped, giving us a genuine taste of the region. Quite simply, Bertie is one of the best guides we have ever had anywhere in the world. We only wish all of our travel guides could meet his standard. We highly recommend Ara Travel and especially Bertie to anyone considering a Balkan tour. It was a memorable and enriching experience for us.Posted on ELY L6 January 2026Verified Excursión a Shkoder y kruje Mi experiencia ha estado genial ,lo recomiendo 100%,nuestro guía hablaba español muy bien(el es albanés,se llama Gleni), primero visitamos kruje,después shkoder y comimos comida tradicional albanesa( estava riquísima),todo perfecto.Posted on SAMAN23 December 2025Verified Anbefaler En av ting alle må prøve når de er i tirana det var gøy opplevelse jeg fant ut at deg var en av de beste ting jeg gjorde tirana .Posted on CRUISER6132428 November 2025Verified Great team, can recommend These guys were amazing. I made a mistake with my tour dates, and they were able to rearrange everything at the last minute for a 3 day 2 night tour to southern Albania. Our guide mentioned he prefers to work with Aria Travel (vs other companies), and an independent guide I used for a day tour called the people running Aria Travel 'great guys'.Posted on SIMON M30 October 2025Verified we had fun had nice time with. my daughter guide was informative leading to the castle great view my only complaint being it would of been nice to have a bit longer as didn't feel had enough time to look round museums and do shopping but this is just a minor point really enjoyed otherwise thankyou for the dayPosted on LUCKY P8 October 2025Verified Truly enjoyed Albania with Aria Travel.

We had 4 day trips with Aria travel. - Day trip to Bovilla lake and Dajti mountain cable car - Day trip to Montenegro - Day trip to Macedonia - Day trip to Kosovo All the trips were a great experience. We were given a private car and guide who was also the driver. We enjoyed our time the most. The views, the history, the food and restaurants the guide recommended were amazing. Our guide’s name was Gerti. Highly recommended. Very nice guy with lots of knowledge. Overall this company gave us all what we wanted and with reasonable prices. They even made us a discount. I would highly recommend them for day trips from Albania.Posted on ALAIN M23 June 2025Verified Excellente expérience grâce à l'agence et à ses guides . Avons fait deux excursions que nous avions définies nous mêmes ( pas de plages à notre programme ) ,excursions gérées par l'agence Aria Travel en voiture particulière avec guide /chauffeur . Tout s'est bien déroulé : intérêt touristique et guides sympathiques et compétents . Première excursion vers le sud en 2 jours avec visite de Berat puis coucher dans un super hotel à Gjierokaster , ; puis le deuxième jour , visite de la ville , qui est à notre avis le must de l'Albanie ;ensuite le Blue eye , une résurgence exceptionnelle qui vaut le détour , et finalement sur le chemin du retour ,vue sur Corfou depuis une colline au dessus de Saranda . Deuxième excursion d'une journée vers le Nord avec Kruje , ville historique bien connue puis Skhoder avec son chateau ; avons fini par le pont ottoman de Mes à quelques km au nord est de Skhoder . Pont que nous avons trouvé très spectaculaire , avec son architecture et ses piscines naturelles en dessous du pont ; en fait il est en photo sur la page de garde du guide Albanie de Lonely Planet et c'est pour cette raison que nous avons provoqué la visite . De plus pas très connu et peu de touristes . Pour le reste des visites nous avons cotoyé des foules de touristes , notamment le soir au bazar de Gjierokaster et le lendemain au Blue Eye ( genre place de la Concorde à 6 h du soir ) il était temps de visiter l'Albanie .Nous avons été surpris par la densité des touristes sur les sites visités . Visite qui nous a permis de balayer le pays du sud au nord :nous avons aperçu la Grèce au sud et le Montenegro au nord . Dans 10 ans , il y aura du surtourisme genre Dubrovnik , Barcelone ...etc .. Donc avons été très satisfaits et merci à nos guides Endri puis Klodi pour leur gentillesse et leur professionnalisme .Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
