Flights from Milan Bergamo Orio al Serio Airport to Albania
Tirana
Tirana is a well-connected destination from Bergamo, reachable in about one hour and forty-five minutes. Rinas Airport, located 18 km from the capital, is the main entry point for travelers heading to Albania and the Balkan area, with daily connections also operated by low-cost carriers, making it easy to find both budget fares and last-minute deals. The heart of the city is Skanderbeg Square, a large pedestrian area surrounded by landmark buildings such as the National History Museum, the Et’hem Bey Mosque, and the Clock Tower; nearby lies the Blloku district, now lively with bars and boutiques after long being a restricted area for the regime’s elite. On the outskirts of the city is the evocative Bunk’Art, a vast underground bunker converted into a museum that tells, through rooms and labyrinthine corridors, the story and contradictions of the communist era.
