KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Shkodër
- Public transport options are very limited in Albania so choosing car hire in Shkoder is a great option for your trip. Although public buses do serve certain areas, timetables are usually hard to come by or need to be updated, making transport systems difficult for visitors to follow. When you hire a car, you will have the option of exploring Shkoder on your own schedule. You can also get out of the city and visit nearby attractions, like Plazhi Mushanit Nature Reserve and Komani Lake.
- Shkoder is served by Tirana Rinas International Airport (TIA), which is located just under a 2 hour drive from the Shkoder city centre and is not connected to the city by public transport. This makes picking up your hire car at Tirana Airport an ideal option to conveniently get your trip underway. Passengers arriving here will find the car hire desks located in and around the car parks outside Arrivals, just a short walk from the terminal building.
- When you choose car hire in Shkoder, you should learn about some road rules and common driving conventions in Albania before you set off. In general, Albanian drivers are not aggressive and you will find a relaxed attitude on the road. One thing to note when driving in Shkoder is that police checks can be quite common. Make sure that you have your driving licence, passport and International Driver’s Permit in the car with you, in case you are pulled over. Some roads in and around Shkoder are also damaged and potholed, so you must take care to avoid these obstacles while driving. You may also encounter frequent roadworks when driving in the city centre. It can be quite dangerous to drive at night in Shkoder and many streets are not well-lit.
- Heavy traffic is common during the weekday rush hour in the Shkoder city centre. The rush hour in Shkoder usually hits around 07:00-09:30 and 16:00-19:00. During these times, the E762 route between Shkoder and Tirana is often very congested with people commuting back and forth to the capital. The E851 heading east from Shkoder is also busy at rush hour, as is the SH1 travelling north.
