What should I see in Albania?
Displaying a great deal of national pride, Albania offers tourists and locals alike a plethora of museums which celebrate the nation’s finest craftsman and artists, while also delving into its storied history.
Health in Albania
Mains water is chlorinated and is fine for brushing teeth. However, bottled water is advised for drinking, especially outside Tirana. Brucellosis and tuberculosis are present in Albanian dairy cattle. Unpasteurised milk and homemade cheese should be avoided; however, in cafes and restaurants the milk is always UHT, and therefore safe.
Tips in Albania
Usually leave a tip if the service was pleasant and quality. The standard amount is 10 % above the receipt of the invoice. But do not forget that the staff make very little money, and their main income - tip.
