Have just returned from riding in the mountains of Albania. Totally recommend it.
If your idea of a holiday involves mountains, horses who think they are high-speed goats, a bit of unspoiled beach as well as some history/culture, then this is the one. I don't know where else you would get such a mix. It's clear that Albania is changing very fast, so I am happy to have had chance to see a pastoral way of life which hasn't changed for thousands of years.
We booked with Far and Ride, and Caravan Horse Riding Albania took us for 150km (up/down 1500m) over 6 days, staying in a mixture of hotels and local family homes.
I have no affiliation with either company
