Landways is now one of the most dynamic ground operators in the Balkans and Southeastern Europe.Landways International was born out of a rising market demand for simple services such as accommodation and ticketing. In the beginning, Landways International operated solely in Albania, offering mainly hotel accommodation, airfare ticketing and tourist packages. In just a couple of years, Landways International became the main ground operator in Kosovo, Montenegro and Macedonia, providing services to foreign tourists as well as the several important international institutions located in Albania at the time.
Keeping up with the market growth and eager to satisfy customer demands, over the years, the company added many other services to its portfolio, expanding to more specialized services such as incentives, staff retreats, conferences, events, and more.
As true pioneers in the tourism industry, Landways International understood fairly quickly that Albania represented too small of a market, resulting in geographical expansion of the company to markets like Finland, Germany, Austria (in Europe) and Japan (in Asia). Successful in attracting and maintaining these markets, Landways International shifted its focus to the rapidly developing economies in Asia. The company went on to grow further and develop its business in many Southeast Asian countries.
To this day, Landways International remains one of the main ground service providers in the Balkan region for the Southeast Asian markets. Landways International continues to set the standard for travel experiences that are personalized, unique, and memorable.

Landways International is proud to offer personal dedication and 24-hour service to its partners in the entire Balkan and Central-Eastern European regions.
