Great tour—Tauno was very knowledgeable and cared about giving a great tour. The itinerary was great—however, I’d say it was a bit too fast-paced and the days were too long. Maybe too ambitious for the amount of days. Perhaps making it an 8 or 9 day tour would be better.
A very interesting trip covering the three Baltic Countries. Our tour leader Ona shared a wealth of information on all the places we visited on our 2 week trip. She was always well prepared and ensured all members had advanced knowledge of each days program. We travelled to many places in each country which had a historical interest. I felt we received excellent information which gave us a much better understanding of earlier times. I enjoyed many place but perhaps Riga was the highlight with a tremendous variety of things to do and see.

Good mix of different nationals, well planned itinerary.However, contrary to what our Travel Agent in Kochi told, there had been no daily transfers to City centre for dinner at choice restaurants.Being vegetarians we had some difficulty in this aspect.
I was disappointed with Stockholm half a day tour as we saw very little any significance. I suggest pl include the Nobel laureate`s tour as well.
Disappointed I had to find my way to the hotel on arrival as the pickup did not wait for us passengers(4 of us)
We had a brilliant trip in July seeing the wonderful Baltic countries. The weather was very kind, the group and our guide wonderful. We all learnt so much about the hard and dramatic history the Baltic countries have experienced and their hard won independence.
