Private Transfers by Van, Vehicle, and Taxi — TIA to Any Hotel
Arriving at Tirana International Airport Nënë Tereza (TIA) and need reliable ground transport to your hotel? Choose from convenient private transfers by van, car, or taxi tailored to your group size, luggage needs, and comfort preferences.
Options and ideal use
Private van transfer: Best for groups, families, or travelers with substantial luggage. Vans seat 6–12 passengers and offer extra cargo space. Ideal for door-to-door service to hotels anywhere in Tirana, Durrës, or surrounding regions.
Private car transfer: Suited for solo travelers, couples, or small groups wanting a comfortable, direct ride. Vehicles vary from sedans to executive cars with room for two large suitcases and a carry-on.
Taxi: Readily available at the airport for quick trips into central Tirana or nearby hotels. Taxis are convenient for small parties or when you prefer to arrange transport on arrival rather than pre-book.
What to expect
Meet & greet: For pre-booked services, drivers typically meet you inside arrivals or at an agreed meeting point holding a name sign. They assist with luggage and escort you to the vehicle.
Fixed or metered rates: Pre-booked transfers often use fixed pricing for transparency. Airport taxis may operate on meters or fixed tariffs—confirm the fare with the driver before departing.
Travel time: Transfer times depend on traffic and hotel location. Central Tirana hotels are generally 15–30 minutes from TIA. Durrës and other coastal destinations take longer; plan accordingly.
Comfort & safety: Vehicles are maintained to local standards. Drivers are licensed professionals familiar with common hotel drop-off points and alternate routes to avoid congestion.
Additional services: Child seats, extra stops, and meet-up assistance can often be requested for pre-booked transfers. Special assistance for mobility-impaired travelers should be arranged in advance.
Booking tips
Pre-book for peace of mind: Reserve a private van or car in advance for guaranteed availability, fixed rates, and a driver waiting at arrivals—especially during peak travel seasons.
Confirm flight details: Provide accurate flight numbers and arrival times so drivers can monitor delays and adjust pickup accordingly.
Check luggage policy: Ensure the vehicle you choose has adequate space for your suitcases and any sports or special equipment.
Verify payment methods: Ask whether the driver accepts card payments or requires cash, and whether gratuity is included or expected.
Choosing the right transfer
For groups of 4+ or heavy luggage: Book a private van.
For 1–3 travelers seeking comfort: Choose a private car.
