Safety question

Are there any particular risks of traveling in Albania and the region (Montenegro, Macedonia, Kosovo, Bosnia) for darker skinned individuals?

I have heard there have been problems in Russia and other places -- just wondering if this is something to be concerned about in the Balkans.

Thanks

I think you should be fine. People are generally hospitable.

Have a great time,

Thanks Rozafa...

Any suggestions on where to stay in Shkodra?

Thanks

Hey Craig, in Shkodra you should stay in Kaduku hotel, it is newly renovated hotel in the center of Shkodra and has reasonable prices.

This hotel is next to Rozafa hotel.

Best and have a great time in the region.

Thank you for the advice!

We called and reserved a room at that hotel about 2 weeks ago, so I%26#39;m glad you agree we%26#39;ve made a good choice!

Thanks!
