Leave the Montenegrin coast from your own door and reach the Albanian capital in about 2h 50m of driving. Inland to the border at Sukobin, through Shkodër and south on the SH1 and the motorway — to your hotel in Tirana, or straight to Tirana Airport for your flight.
Ulcinj to Tirana takes about 2h 50m of driving, plus time at the border. Private transfer priced on request per vehicle — collected at your hotel or apartment in Ulcinj and taken to your address in Tirana or to Tirana Airport, with a break in Shkodër if you would like one.
Pickup at your door in Ulcinj. The car leaves town on the M-1, the road towards Shkodër, and heads inland to the Albanian border.
On the main road you leave Montenegro at Sukobin and enter Albania at Muriqan. Passport control takes place on both sides: every passenger carries a valid passport (or an ID card where the nationality allows it). Allow some flexibility in journey time, especially before a flight.
After the border the SH41 leads to Shkodër. The city centre and the hilltop Rozafa Castle above it are both just off the route — a good first stop in Albania. Add time for the visit.
South of Shkodër the SH1 passes Lezhë, a convenient place for a coffee before the last part of the drive.
The A1 motorway and the SH2 bring you into the capital. Drop-off at your hotel or address in Tirana, or at Tirana International Airport, which comes before the city on this road.
Per vehicle, not per person. Every quote includes tolls, fuel, border crossing assistance, luggage handling, water, and child seats on request.

Tirana International Airport (TIA) lies north-west of the city and is reached before Tirana itself, so we can drive you straight there: Ulcinj to the airport is roughly 122 km and 2h 35m of driving, before the border and any breaks. Give us your flight time in the request so the pickup can be planned around it.
From the capital we also drive south to Berat, to the Riviera at Himarë and on to Sarandë.

From the coast the M-1 runs inland to the border at Sukobin; on the Albanian side the SH41 continues to Shkodër, where the route turns south on the SH1 past Lezhë and joins the A1 motorway towards the capital, finishing on the SH2 into Tirana. Allow about 2h 50m of driving, plus time at the border and any stops.
