For the launch of Albania’s first event, we featured the CEO of My Albania Nature Explorers, Neritan Ibi. The publisher of Travel Magazine Flora Xhemani also kindly provided more than 20 free magazines to participants of Travel Massive. Other representatives who attended included Dajti Alpino Association and Gjeo Vjosa. 

The event’s theme was “Tourism and Photography” – how photographers are important contributors and promoters of tourism in Albania. Speaker Dritan Zaimi, a tourism lecturer shared with the audience his personal experience as a nature photographer and how he promotes his birthplace through photos.

Our second speaker Flora Xhemani, is founder and publisher of Travel Magazine, the only Albanian magazine dedicated to tourism.

The aim of Travel Massive Albania is to become a monthly networking event for people who are part of the tourism industry in the country. The events will include the presentation of successful startups in the travel sector and new initiatives which provide new services for tourists. We hope to discuss the problems that the tourism sector in Albania is currently facing. We also hope to propose quality solutions for these problems, highlight the positive sides of tourism, and find ways we can improve further.
