Useful Info On Cabs And Pickups

A journey that begins before water

For those who wish to explore the wonders of Lake Komani, the experience begins already on the road. Connections to the embarkation pier (Komani or Fierza) pass through remote valleys, small villages and breathtaking scenery. Even the four-wheel ride becomes part of the adventure.

How To Get There

Several localities offer transportation services to reach the lake, either by private cab or shared minivan. The main departures are from cities such as Tirana, Shkodër, Valbonë, Theth, and Fierza. Public transportation is scarce in many of these areas, so relying on local services is often the most practical (and scenic) choice.

Pick-Up And Punctuality: How It Works

Drivers, often locals, are familiar with the timing of ferries on the lake and arrange for passengers to arrive in time for boarding. The pick-up service may include contracted pick-up points, but it is often possible to arrange to be picked up directly from one’s accommodation.

A Local Experience

More than just transportation, traveling by cab or minivan along these roads is an opportunity to discover authentic life in northern Albania: mountain roads, spontaneous stops at small cafes, chatting with the driver who often also becomes an unofficial guide.
