Transfer from Tirana to Theth or Vice Versa offers a straightforward, comfortable way to experience some of Albania’s most breathtaking landscapes. For $89.05 per person, you get a roughly 4-6 hour journey that connects the bustling capital with the serene peaks of Theth National Park. Whether you’re headed into wild nature or returning to Tirana, this service ensures you travel with ease, accompanied by a professional driver who makes the trip feel less like a transfer and more like part of your adventure.
What we love about this experience is the flexibility in transportation options—from private sedans for smaller groups to minivans for larger parties—making it adaptable to your needs. Plus, the included hotel pick-up and drop-off in both Tirana and Theth provide a stress-free start and end to your day, saving you from the hassle of navigating local transport.
The only thing to keep in mind is that this is a point-to-point transfer, so if you’re expecting guided sightseeing or stops along the way, you’ll need to arrange those separately. Still, for travelers wanting a smooth, reliable connection between these two destinations, this service hits the mark. It suits adventurous travelers craving authentic scenery and those with tight schedules who prefer a hassle-free ride over public transport.

An Honest Look at the Transfer Experience
When considering a transfer service like this, what really matters is how seamlessly it helps you reach your destination—especially when that destination is Theth, a remote yet captivating national park.

The Itinerary Breakdown
Start in Tirana with a pickup at your hotel or designated meeting point. The transfer begins with a meet-and-greet with your driver—who, based on reviews, is both professional and friendly. The drive itself usually takes about 30 minutes from Tirana city center, allowing a comfortable start without feeling rushed. The driver then sets off into the mountains, with a scenic route that offers glimpses of Albania’s diverse landscapes.
Stop in Theth is a highlight. The driver will drop you off at the entrance to Theth National Park, where you’re free to explore without the worry of navigating buses or taxis. The journey is typically arranged with admission tickets included, so you don’t need to fuss over extra costs. Travelers report that the scenery along the way is a major plus—mountain vistas, lush valleys, and rugged terrain all pass by your window, making the drive part of the adventure itself.
Return trips follow the same process, with hotel drop-offs arranged in Tirana, completing the loop smoothly.
What Makes This Transfer Stand Out
One of the most praised aspects, based on reviews, is the professionalism and friendliness of the drivers. Mira, for example, is highlighted as a very knowledgeable driver who not only gets you there safely but also shares helpful insights about the landscape and Albanian culture. You’ll appreciate the sense of personalized service, especially on routes where the scenery is spectacular and worth commenting on.
Another key point is the flexibility for different group sizes—for just a couple, a private sedan makes the trip intimate and comfortable; for larger families or groups, the option of two or three sedans or minivans ensures everyone can travel together without sacrificing comfort.
The Value for Your Money
At $89.05 per person, this transfer offers good value, especially considering the convenience and comfort it provides. Compared to the hassle and cost of arranging your own transportation or taking public buses, this private service simplifies your planning. It’s also a good option if you value having a dedicated driver who can adapt to your schedule and needs.
What Could Be Improved
The main consideration is the lack of included sightseeing or stops beyond the transfer itself. If you’re looking for a guided tour or want to see specific points of interest along the route, you’ll need to arrange that separately. Also, this service is non-refundable, so if your plans change unexpectedly, you might not get your money back, which is typical for private transfers but worth noting.

If you’re arriving in Tirana and heading immediately to Theth, or vice versa, and want to maximize your exploration time, this transfer makes a lot of sense.

The drivers, like Mira, often go beyond just driving—they become part of your experience with their insights and friendly attitude.
