Overland Albania is here for families craving quality time in the great outdoors.
This experience is all about trading city stress for forest vibes, setting aside screens for starry skies, and creating moments your whole family will talk about for years to come.
Dive into an extraordinary journey that blends nature, culture, and thrill. This tour takes you and your kids from serene lakes, camping by the beach, exploring canyons, hiking through mountains, rafting wild rivers, exploring remote Albania, and offering a true escape into the wild and authentic cultural experiences.
Dinner around the fire is a chance to connect and unwind under the stars.
Because we know how to make the outdoors accessible, fun, and unforgettable for families. Whether it is your family’s first outdoor trip or one of many, we take the stress out of planning and logistics, so you can focus on what matters most: quality time together.
One of the many good reasons to overland with your children is that you can actually help them stay children for longer. To show children a way of traveling as close as possible to nature. It is very simple: play, eat, play, drive, play, raft, play, camp, play, hike, play, swim, play, and sleep. This involves cutting fruits in the morning, helping to set the table, cleaning up afterwards and helping to set up camp. The more educational goal is to stimulate their personal judgment, their courage and their faith in themselves. We encourage their imagination.
Overlanding is about being able to camp in the middle of nowhere by taking roads dedicated to 4x4. Will allow you to alternate between mountain asphalt panoramic road and off-road sections where you will appreciate taking your time.
