Baltic Bicycle Trips

Great week with excellent, knowledgable and well organised leader who made the trip very interesting. Good mix of visiting cities and cycling in quieter places.

This was a very (very) enjoyable vacation. We have a good mix of personalities in the group who got on together and a great guide, Lina, who kept everything rolling. The mix of cycling and Baltic culture was the right balance and the sunny, warm weather, for all but the last day, showcased the 3 x Baltic countries at their glorious best. The trip blended the cycling with city visits (inc three in Lithuania, Kaunas, Klaipeda and Vilnius), beach visit (optional swim), a boat trip, city tours, country sightseeing, supported with interesting history and facts, supplied by Lina. This provided an overview of a 'hidden part' of Europe, that was very enlightening, more so now, due to the Baltic states proximity and relationship with bordering Russia. The hotels were all good standard and the local food ranged from good to delicious. During the days, we had the right amount of stops for coffee, ice cream, comfort breaks etc. Additionally, the local Baltic beer in all three countries is excellent, but be warned, pretty strong too. Estonia, Latvia & Lithuania do have many similarities but are clearly unique. Personally, I came away educated & with a clearer understanding of the the history and politics of the region & I'm grateful for this I highly recommend this trip - it was so good, I may even do it again!

A good way to see all 3 capitals. Accommodation convenient for the old towns and of a good standard and there is time to explore. Cycling is mainly on very well maintained cycle paths with a small amount on quiet roads. The cycling is mainly flat routes and distances are not long - max ca 40km. Scenery very similar in all 3 countries. There are a couple of lengthy bus transfers - details are in the trip notes.

Eagle our leader is amazing. She’s so knowledgeable and interesting and really good tours of each city. She was also good fun, impatient.

We really enjoyed the trip. The three Baltic countries are very interesting and scenic. The cycling was generally very flat and easy and we had an excellent group and tour leader.

This trip had good accommodation in great locations. A lovely balance of cycling site seeing and free time. Eating out was affordable and delicious. Our tour leader made the trip very interesting I wouldn’t hesitate to visit the Baltic states again.
