One of the best things to do on your last day is to explore Bulevardi Dëshmorët e Kombit, a street that captures the true essence of Tirana. Take your time to uncover its best sides and enjoy its proximity to many of the area’s best attractions.
Get a last taste of Albania’s tasty traditional food. Choose from a curated list of the best local food and drink spots in Tirana and enjoy what may be your last vacation meal of this trip. Look forward to recreating these distinct culinary experiences in your own kitchen later to remind you of your unforgettable road trip across Albania, Montenegro, Serbia, Croatia, and Bosnia & Herzegovina.
If you're in the mood to try something new, consider Stephen Center Restaurant and Coffee Shop, another top spot with a mouthwatering menu.
The time has come to say farewell to Tirana for now. You will realize that you’re traveling home with more than you came with as you look back at your 13-day European road trip in Albania, Montenegro, Serbia, Croatia, and Bosnia & Herzegovina with fond memories. Safe travels!
