Red Corner: Albania and Montenegro Advice {Gadling}
May 15th 2006 3:33PM Never been in Montenegro.
Albania is nice, despite what you hear in the media. The overall ignorance that exists today in the media regarding the situation there, is the result of the 50 years of the Albania's self-isolation.
However, today's Albania is a new country and very soon it will be a popular tourist destination.
My advise, if you visit it now you may still enjoy the unspoiled beaches and natural wonders, before it is too late.
I would recommend mostly the southern part of Albania, such as the cities of Berat, Gjirokaster, Saranda and Butrint.
Tirana is the capital and the major city in Albania, it will be interesting to visit it and see the capitalist system in progress...
Regarding the safety, I would let you know this:
My wife and son are in Albania now for a visit, meanwhile I am still here in the US.
