We aim to make travelling and renting a car abroad a smooth journey. We’ve been quickly expanding into new countries, and when we met our Albanian team, we knew we had something special to add to our growing partnerships.
Though Albania may be a small country, the beauty and culture within makes it a travel location bursting at the seams. With the Riviera guiding you along its spectacular coastlines and the Albanian Alps towering above the lush green landscapes, there is so much waiting to be discovered in the Balkan beauty.

A Rich and Fascinating History
Because of its central location and place next to the Ionian Sea, Albania has been invaded and conquered many times over its long history. Originally, it was home to the Ilyrians who were defeated by the Romans before being ruled by the Byzantine Empire from the 4th century. Over the next 1000 years, Slavs, Huns, Bulgars and more tried their hand at conquering Albania. However, it would be the Ottomans who ruled over the country from the 15th Century until their independence in 1912.
With uncountable civilisations having occupied Albania over the years, its land is brimming with history with treasured artefacts, impressive monuments and stunning architecture around every corner. Let Finalrentals Albania be your guide to the country’s rich history book, letting you unveil its marvels at your own pace with the freedom of a rental car.
Mouth-Watering Albanian Cuisine
Of course, one of the things top on your list when visiting a country is trying out the cuisine. With Greek, Italian and European influences, Albania’s traditional food offers a feast guaranteed to keep your bellies warm and happy. One of the most popular dishes is Burek, a cheese spinach and meat pie shaped like a triangle. Tavë Kosi is the national dish of Albania and is a must-try when visiting. A meal made up of lamb, rice, yoghurt and eggs cooked and served in a large casserole dish. Though the name translated doesn’t sound appetising, this mouth-watering delicious delight has to be tried. Seafood is another delicacy of the country, fresh from the Ionian Sea and perfect with some Albanian wine as you sit watching the orange sunset dip below the Accursed Mountains.

One of the most appealing things about Albania is the incredibly friendly people. Wherever you go in the country, whether the populated capital, Tirana, or more rural locations in the Alps.
