4 countries, one memorable Balkan journey

Hi travel enthusiasts 👋

Some parts of the Balkans still fly under the radar, and that's exactly what makes them so good.

Our combined tour of Montenegro, Albania, North Macedonia, and Kosovo takes you through four fascinating countries that most travelers barely know exist, let alone visit together.

Ancient cities, dramatic coastlines, mountain landscapes, and a warmth from locals that's hard to find in more touristy corners of Europe.

What to expect from each country

Montenegro 🇲🇪 
Small but stunning. Montenegro packs an extraordinary amount into a tiny space: a fjord-like bay with medieval walled towns, the wild Durmitor mountains, and a coastline that genuinely takes your breath away. Kotor's old town alone is worth the trip.

Albania 🇦🇱 
One of Europe's most underrated destinations. Albania has a rugged, unspoiled beauty, a fascinating Ottoman and communist history, and some of the friendliest people you'll meet anywhere. Highlights include the UNESCO World Heritage-listed city of Berat, the ancient ruins of Butrint, and the Albanian Riviera.

North Macedonia 🇲🇰 
Home to Ohrid: a gorgeous lakeside town that UNESCO considers one of the oldest human settlements in Europe, and Skopje, the capital, with its eclectic mix of Ottoman bazaars and grand baroque architecture. A country full of surprises.

Kosovo 🇽🇰 
Europe's youngest country is also one of its most welcoming. Pristina has a buzzing café culture and a youthful energy, while the medieval Serbian monasteries scattered across the countryside are genuinely remarkable.
