Begin your journey through the spectacular Albanian Alps by choosing one of two one-way transfer options: Shkoder to Valbona or Valbona to Shkoder. Please select the direction that matches your travel plans when booking.
From Shkoder to Valbona: Begin your adventure in Shkoder, one of Albania’s oldest and most vibrant cities. Travel to Koman, where a scenic ferry awaits to take you across the legendary Koman Lake. Often compared to the Norwegian fjords and considered one of the most beautiful boat journeys in Europe, this unforgettable cruise passes through dramatic mountain gorges, towering cliffs, emerald waters, and untouched wilderness.
As the ferry glides through the narrow passages of Koman Lake, every turn reveals postcard-perfect views that make this route a highlight of any trip to Albania. The journey offers endless opportunities for photography and allows you to experience one of the country’s most extraordinary natural landscapes.
After arriving in Fierze, continue by road through the stunning Albanian Alps. Travel past traditional mountain villages, crystal-clear rivers, deep valleys, and spectacular alpine scenery before reaching the world-famous Valbona Valley.
From Valbona to Shkoder: If you’re staying in Valbona, enjoy the same breathtaking experience in the opposite direction. Depart from the heart of Valbona Valley and travel by minivan through the magnificent Albanian Alps to Fierze. Board the ferry and cruise across the legendary Koman Lake, surrounded by towering cliffs, emerald waters, and spectacular mountain scenery. Often described as one of Europe’s most beautiful ferry journeys, the cruise offers unforgettable panoramic views before continuing by road from Koman to Shkoder.
Valbona is often described as a hidden mix of the Swiss Alps, the Italian Dolomites, and the wild Balkans. Surrounded by towering peaks, lush forests, and pristine rivers, it is considered one of the most beautiful destinations in the Balkans and a paradise for nature lovers, hikers, photographers, and adventure seekers.
Please note: This activity offers two separate one-way transfer options, not a return. Select either Shkoder → Valbona or Valbona → Shkoder when making your booking, according to your travel itinerary.
