TIRANA, May 12 – In its efforts to promote itself to international tourists Albania is urging Saudis to enjoy Albania’s natural beauties.
Albania relaxed its visa procedures for Saudi tourists during the summer period, from May 25 to Sept. 30, according to Albanian Ambassador Sami Shiba .
In an interview with Arab News, Shiba invited “Saudi tourists to consider Albania as one of the best options when making their holiday plans,” to enjoy its values, the touristic and cultural resources of his country with its tourist potential of the coast and mountain areas.
“The natural beauty, its geographical position and its mild climate make Albania a special place in Europe. Albania has been developing very well in tourism,” he said.
