Think budget-friendly means compromising on quality? Think again. We recently flew with Gulf Air and were genuinely impressed by the comfort, service, and overall experience. In fact, we’d choose them again in a heartbeat. Don’t let the lower price point put you off, Gulf Air might just surprise you.

If you’re considering a road trip through Albania, don’t miss Pogradec. The scenic 2–2.5 hour drive from Tirana along the SH3 takes you through charming villages and ends with breathtaking views of Lake Ohrid. We stayed at Hotel Victoria, right on the lakefront, where modern rooms and stunning sunsets made it the perfect stop. Pogradec offers a peaceful lakeside escape that’s well worth the journey.
