Top tips for hiring a car in Tirana

  • Public transportation in Tirana is limited and not always reliable. Therefore, it is best to rent a car when visiting this delightful city. When you rent a car, you’ll also have the freedom to visit all of the city’s sights like the Pyramid of Tirana or Skanderbeg Square. A city known for its nightlife, Tirana tourists who have a hire car will find it easy to visit its lively clubs and bars after hours.
  • Tirana International Airport is the most prominent airport in Albania. It is a relatively large airport with a number of amenities for travelers including on-site hire car agencies. Some companies with offices in the airport include Europcar, Sixt, and Enterprise.
  • To drive in Tirana you will need an international driver’s license. When traveling on the highways in Tirana, it will be a smooth ride. However, residential streets and roads are often in poor condition and in need of repair. Dangerous snowy and icy roads are also possible in the winter season. As long as you drive with caution, however, there should be no problems.

This is especially true in Central Tirana around Skanderbeg Square and the business district. Pedestrians and cyclists also add to the congestion and traffic jams in Tirana.

Vehicle had no gas at pick up, the red warning light was on so had to stop and fill it out at the closest gas station. The vehicle should be cleaned prior of renting it. The teller's service was great at pick up, great was also the convenience of getting it and dropping it next to the airport. Budget should consider having a green card, insurance card and the extra fee they charge to go and drive to the neighboring countries included in the price. As a tourist that doesn't know the area, should have all included in the price.

On pickup car had no gas, low tire pressure light was on, and car covered in dents and scratches. When we returned, they claimed one scratch was new and would cost $700 to repair, then they said we could go if we agreed to pay $350. Clearly a scam they regularly run, as two employees coordinated over the phone and at the office acting like the person not there was the boss and their hands were tied but it was the same two guys.

I didn't get the car I booked, because THEY DIDN'T HAVE IT. no alerts, emails, or calls about them missing it, so I was left on the street with my luggage in the middle of the night with an Airbnb booked in another city. next time maybe count your cars before letting people book non-existing ones.
