Getting There

  • Public Transport

    From the center of Tirana (e.g., Skanderbeg Square), take the blue 'Qender – Porcelan' bus. The bus departs near the Sahati (tower clock). This is the most direct option. The bus operates from 05:30 to 24:00, with frequency varying from 5-20 minutes. The journey takes approximately 20-30 minutes, depending on traffic. Get off at the 'Porcelan' bus stop and walk uphill for a short distance to Rruga Siri Kodra. A single bus ticket costs 40 Lek.

  • Taxi

    Taxis are readily available in Tirana. A taxi ride from the city center (e.g., Skanderbeg Square) to Rruga Siri Kodra typically costs between 700 to 1000 Lek. Ensure the driver activates the meter or negotiate a fixed price before starting the journey. Taxi services like Speed Taxi and Green Taxi operate 24/7.

  • Walking

    While walking is possible, it's not recommended as the primary mode of transport from Tirana's city center due to the distance (approximately 4km) and the uphill climb towards Rruga Siri Kodra. However, if you are nearby in the Siri Kodra neighborhood, walking is a viable option.
