The Baltics

We thoroughly enjoyed our Baltic tour and would recommend it to anyone interested in history, architecture, cultural and gastronomic experiences. Although we have travelled extensively in Europe over many years, the three Baltic countries were new destinations for us and they all offer interesting and different dimensions in terms of pre-WW2 history, and post-war and occupation history as well. Beautiful medieval cities and castles are wonderful to visit, but the countryside, seaside and riverside towns were also a pleasure to explore. We were fortunate to have the guidance of an exceptional tour guide in Margarita, who made sure we all enjoyed the experience together, balancing quiet solo moments with memorable group events which were plenty of fun as well. Similarly, the local tour guides we had were all knowledgeable and entertaining as well.

What I liked most about the trip was learning about the history in all 3 regions. We also went to Poland so it gave a good picture of what happened during the world wars and their rebuilding and partnerships.

Perfect cycling roads and paths through forests and near the lovely coast – and once actually on the beach. Brilliant guides, extremely interesting history and varied food. So flat that it’s also suitable for non cyclists. A unique opportunity to experience three countries and cultures. Lucky to have such an interesting group too and I really appreciated spending time with non Brits! And I was really impressed with all 3 countries which achieved independence from the USSR only 35 years ago – and their transformation is inspirational.
