Italy is a boot-shaped peninsula situated in the Mediterranean Sea at the bottom of Western Europe, with the Tyrrhenian Sea to the West, Ionian Sea to the South and Adriatic Sea to the East. Italy is the fifth most visited country in the world and contains more World Heritage Sites than any other country. Although Rome, Milan, Venice and Florence are the top tourist destinations in Italy, the country’s rich collections of art, culture and literature from many different periods and regions make it impossible to judge on where the most interesting location is. With around four thousand miles of coastline, with countless gulfs, inlets, and long sandy beaches, Italy is truly adapted to the vacation lovers every need. Coastal cities with their sea resorts and awesome beaches are easily reachable by car with a variety of ferries and vessels large and small ready to sail you there.
Albania is a small country in south-eastern Europe, approximately 72 km from Italy across the Strait of Otranto. Having recently recuperated from a difficult communist regime, Albania has since become a highly desirable holiday spot thanks to its striking mountain scenery, fascinating archaeological sites and beautiful beaches. The capital, Tirana is a vibrant city with brightly coloured buildings and picturesque plazas fringed by trees and mountains. One of the oldest cities in the country, Berat has recently joined the UNESCO World Heritage Site list for its Ottoman architecture and intact castle, so there’s plenty of appealing cultural sights. The Albanian coastline stretches from the Adriatic to the Ionian Sea, so the country is well accessible from both northern and southern Italian ports. There are numerous ferry companies offering overnight sailings, so it might be worth booking a more comfortable cabin.
