Question 1

Is a visa required for Albania?

Accepted Answer

Citizens of EU countries, the USA, Canada, Australia, and the UK can enter Albania visa-free for stays of up to 90 days within a 180-day period. Always check current entry requirements with your country's foreign ministry before travel.

Question 2

How do I get from Corfu to the city by ferry?

Accepted Answer

Several ferry operators run daily crossings between Corfu Port and the city's ferry terminal, with the crossing taking approximately 35 to 45 minutes on a fast ferry. Tickets can be purchased at the port or through operators such as Finikas Lines and Ionian Seaways.

Question 3

What currency is used and can I pay by card?

Accepted Answer

Albania uses the Albanian lek (ALL). Card payments are accepted at larger hotels and some restaurants, but many local businesses, taxis, and markets operate on a cash-only basis, so carrying lek is strongly recommended.

Question 4

Is it safe to drink tap water?

Accepted Answer

Tap water in Albania is generally not recommended for drinking without filtering or boiling. Bottled water is inexpensive and widely available throughout the city and surrounding area.

Question 5

What is the best way to get to Butrint from the city?

Accepted Answer

Local buses and shared furgons run to Butrint and Ksamil from the main bus stand near the city center, with the journey taking around 30 to 40 minutes. Taxis and rental cars offer more flexibility, particularly for combining Butrint with the Blue Eye spring in a single day.
