When weighing your options for reaching the south of Albania, the bus stands out as the most cost-effective and stress-free choice.

Gjirafa Travel simplifies the process by centralizing all travel information. Compared to flying, which is not a direct option between these two cities, the bus provides a door-to-door service from city center to seaside, making it the most environmentally friendly way to travel across the Balkan peninsula.

Once you arrive at the Ksamil Station, you are just moments away from some of the most beautiful beaches in Europe. Often referred to as the "Ionian Pearl," Ksamil is famous for its three small islands and crystal-clear water.
