Vilnius Tours in Fall

A well balanced trip taking in nature, history, architecture, cuisine etc... in this fascinating part of the world; a mixture of several long days on the bus with a few free afternoons allowing us to follow our own interests. Simona was the perfect tour leader! She kept us entertained throughout with her amazing knowledge of everything to do with the region. Passionate about the history and nature of each of the countries we visited, she always pointed out the differences between the 3 (i.e. linguistic and religious), but also stressed the unity born from the common experience of fighting for independence. She gave cohesion to our group of 15 with the dedicated WhatApp group she created and kept us well organised, but also took a personal interest in each of us. It was a joy to witness these 3 countries progressing so quickly and flourishing since independence.

The Baltics Tour was really enjoyable and educational. Our guide, Simona, was excellent and her in depth knowledge of all three countries really made the tour. She was very approachable, extremely well organised and was great fun. The itinerary was very interesting and Tallinn, Riga and Vilnius all had beautiful architecture. The people were very welcoming. In Kaunus we even had a chance to join in with Lithuanian dancing. The accommodation was mostly excellent. I would thoroughly recommend this tour.

A packed tour which successfully combined cycling through some beautiful forests and seaside towns with walking visits to the three capitals. Tour leader was knowledgeable and keen to share insights.

I didn't know quite what to expect on this tour of The Baltics but it was a truly memorable trip. A huge thankyou goes to our guide, Simona, who went above and beyond any ordinary guide duties. She delved into the history of each country with joy and enthusiasm. She looked after us always ensuring that we were safe and knew exactly what we were doing. Our accommodation was excellent throughout and the pace of the tour was just right. This tour comes highly recomeended.

I honestly had no idea what to expect when I booked this cycling trip, but wow - what an absolute gem! The route took us to charming medieval towns, along stunning coastlines, and through peaceful national parks, showing us a side of these countries you'd likely otherwise miss. The absolute highlight for me was cycling Lithuania's Lake District, where we pedaled past gorgeous lakes and through pine forests, discovering adorable wooden villages that looked straight out of a storybook. The unexpected moments made it unforgettable - like when our guide insisted we try this tiny restaurant that only served dried fish (I was skeptical), but it turned out to be the best meal of the entire trip. Every evening, our small group would gather over wine and local beer, laughing about the day's adventures. From the incredible old town of Tallinn to tucked-away fishing villages, every day brought something new to discover, while the thoughtfully planned routes made the journey challenging yet incredibly rewarding. If you're on the fence about this trip, just book it.

I found the trip was too long, and there was not sufficient variety among the 3 Baltic Republics to justify a 14 day trip; a 7 day or 10 day trip would have been enough for me, covering the 3 capitals and possibly the palace.
