The vehicle

Car

Depending on availability, your road trip in Albania will be behind the wheel of a Nissan X-Trail 4×4 or a Mercedes-Benz LM. Both vehicles are reliable and comfortable, built to handle Albania’s mountain roads and tracks while still being enjoyable for everyday driving.

  • 4x4 vehicle, suitable for mountain roads and trails
  • Plenty of storage space for all your camping gear
  • Air conditioning for comfortable driving, even in summer
  • Phone holder and cigarette lighter charger included
  • USB socket for charging your devices

Rooftop tent

Your vehicle comes equipped with a rooftop tent with a built-in mattress, which you can access safely using the ladder. Once set up, it gives you a comfortable, elevated place to sleep, away from the damp ground, so you can wake up to Albania’s landscapes.

  • Easy to set up, with access via the included ladder
  • Built-in mattress for a truly comfortable night’s sleep
  • Ventilation windows for good air circulation
  • Suitable for 2 people
  • Integrated storage pockets for your belongings

Optional

Damage Waiver

Accidents happen quickly. That’s why we recommend adding damage coverage to your booking. It costs €37 per day per vehicle and covers the vehicle whenever you or another driver from your group is behind the wheel (please note: damage caused by negligence to camping gear is not covered).

If you do not choose this option, you will need to pay a €1,000 security deposit before departure. In the event of damage, a maximum amount of €3,000 may be charged.

Do I get to choose my vehicle?

The vehicle assigned depends on availability at the time of booking. Both vehicles offer a similar level of comfort and equipment for your road trip.

Where can I cook during the road trip?

You cook outside using the supplied gas stove and cooking equipment, set up on your camping table.

How can I keep my food fresh?

The vehicle is equipped with a 12 V refrigerator and a cooler to keep your supplies fresh throughout the trip.

Can I take a shower during the road trip?

Showers are available at each of the campsites booked for your trip.

What type of license do I need to drive the 4×4?

A standard Category B driving licence is all you need. You must be at least 21 years old and have held your licence for at least two years.

How can I charge my devices during the trip?

The vehicle has USB ports inside and a cigarette lighter socket, so you can keep your phone or camera charged throughout the journey.

Where can we eat?

You’ve got plenty of options! Your vehicle comes with a fully equipped kitchen kit, so you can prepare your own meals along the way. You’ll easily find supermarkets and local shops where you can stock up. If you’d rather put your feet up and let someone else do the cooking, you can also eat at restaurants on the campsites or discover small local spots nearby.

Can you wild camp?

You’re completely free to spend the night wherever you like. However, a campsite is reserved for you every night as standard.

Is it difficult to set up the rooftop tent?

No, setup is quick and easy with the ladder provided. We’ll explain everything during the briefing before you set off.

Do you want to take action for nature?

Through our partnership with Greentripper, you can offset the CO₂ emissions associated with your trip. Your contribution supports a certified project in Uganda that distributes more efficient cookstoves, significantly reducing fuel consumption. Travelbase contributes to the project too.

Is the car manual or automatic?

All our cars in Albania have automatic transmission. However, if a replacement vehicle is needed or a vehicle suffers exceptional damage, you may be given a manual car. Please let us know if your driving licence only covers automatic cars.
