Albania essentials

Cash vs card

ALL137 to £1

Albanian lek

Albania runs largely on cash — carry Lek; ATMs are everywhere in the cities
Cards work in Tirana hotels, malls and tourist spots, rarely elsewhere
Pay in Lek, not euros — paying euros gets you change in Lek at a poor rate

Power

Type C / F · 230V

Tap water

Tap water is NOT recommended for drinking — bottled is the norm (cheap, everywhere). Fine for brushing teeth.

Tipping

Round up or 5–10%

Round up ~5–10% for good service.

Driving

Drive on the right. Roads vary — main routes are good, rural ones rough; drivers are assertive. A car helps for the Riviera and the mountains, less so in Tirana.

Phrases

I need a doctor

Kam nevojë për një mjek

Call an ambulance

Thirrni një ambulancë
