Kotor Travel Forum

Hello,

I've seen some posts similar to my question, but I'm looking for more current info for July 2006.

Does anyone know how long it would take to get from Kotor to Tirana, Albania? We'd like to do it in a day. It's OK if it is a long day. Is the only route: Kotor-Ulcinj-Shkodra-Tirana?

Thanks.

Branko,

Thanks for info, very interesting. We (two adults+3 kids) very likely will be in Crna Gora this Summer, around mid-July. It also may happen, my parents will join us, so it could be 7(!) people. Few questions:

- Do you know any inexpensive, clean private accomodation in the area? Closeness to the beach is not extremely important, but I won't mind :-) We know, there is always a crowd with "sobe" sign, but... (see next)
- Unfortunately I will be still working while on vacation, so I would like to have access to Internet for 1-2 hours every day.
- Language skill of host is not important, if they speak Serbian (oops, sorry, Montenegrian) slow enough we understand. My parents do not speak English at all, Russian is fine - you got the idea, I think. The second choice would be German.
- What language is used by guide on the tour to Tirana?

thanks!

Branko,

The arrival will be around July 11-July 15 - we are flexible, and depend on the availability of room(s). TV, cable, etc is not important: we are not really used to it. Clean bathroom, kitchen useage is more important. Aircondition is not very important. Availability of Internet is extremely important. If it counts: in all countries of former Yugo as well as Bulgaria we strongly prefere the local food, no international. We cannot stay more than probably 10 days.

Hvala
