Cycled and toured with a great group of travelers. Despite the occasional rain and cold, we managed to see quite a bit and explore new places. The accommodations were conveniently located to important places of interest and restaurants; liked the fact that we stayed in almost all the hotels for at least two consecutive nights.
Visiting the Vilnius Jewish ghetto and synagogue and imagining how life was during the war.
Lukas was attentive to all our needs and very knowledgeable about the places we visited. He always addressed our concerns promptly and appropriately. He just needs to relax more!
Keep a close eye on the weather reports and pack accordingly.
A great trip, blending cultural aspects, great sightseeing, exploring the 3 capital cities as well as some nice cycling.
Terrain was nice and flat and was within the capability of everyone in our group. Distances were very manageable and there was a minimum of waiting around. Lukas, our guide and the driver were simply outstanding in getting us up on our bikes each day with a minimum of fuss. Fast turnaround time between finishing our cycling and being back on the move again on the bus.
I really enjoyed the Riga and Vilnius walking tours.... It was great to get local insight into the history and the people. As for the cycling... the scenery everywhere was pretty good... cycling by the sea, through Forest, rolling country-side, stopping for lunches in very scenic settings (castles), great seafood and sampling the many potato dishes on offer!
Lukas was outstanding. He handled the group very well, was very attentive to everyone's needs and couldnt' do enough to help. Very knowledgeable about all 3 countries and clearly passionate about his beloved Lithuania!
Bring rain gear. We were very fortunate to only have experience a small amount of rain while cycling, but the weather is changeable and you could be unlucky and hit a few rain-showers... so be prepared.
Cycling in Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania for 10 days.
The Holocoust Museum in Lithuania, just outside Vilnius was absolutely humbling and eye-opening. This history was not something I was aware of and the museum was extensive about the history of the Lithuanian Jewish people's treatment at the hands of the Nazis, as well as the Lithuanian people's struggles and persecution during the Soviet occupation.
Lukas was great. He was so knowledgable about the Region and shared it enthusiastically. He made sure everything went smoothly and that everyone arrived at their destination.
Make sure you bring bug spray for the first days of cycling in the National park in Estonia. Also, make sure you have rain gear.
A fun trip as always with a lovely group of people and an excellent leader. Loved all three capitals and the other cities we citied as well as the countryside we cycled through.
Cycling in the Lahemaa National Park to the lovely Park Hotel. Cycling along the Curonian Spit. All 3 capitals especially Riga and Villnius. Tallin was a little spoilt by the noisy hen/stag parties and the cruise shippers.
Vaida was excellent - Knowledgeable about all 3 countries not just her own, with excellent English, and a really friendly fun way about her. Our first driver/mechanic Edgar was also excellent despite speaking no English.
Would recommend anyone who is gluten and dairy-free take some breakfast food with you if like me you like a traditional as opposed to continental breakfast. Also the airline didn't provide any food despite Exodus specifying my dietary needs.
Vaida is an exceptional tour guide, I would go on any trip with her. The biking was great and the areas were beautiful. Really get a nice sense of the country. But we had beautiful weather, very lucky. The one thing I would change is the hotel in Kleipeda; it was so terrible it almost ruined the trip for me. Also, vegetarians need to make arrangements – bring protein bars, etc, because it is mostly meat and fish.
Most inspirational moment of the trip was along the roads around Lake Peipsi. Beautiful houses.
She was exceptional, I would follow her on any trip.
A fascinating glimpse into the history and culture of these countries. The cycling is leisurely with frequent stops and comfort breaks. The scenery is varied with forest, coast, beach and countryside. The towns and cities visited have fabulous architecture and superb restaurants. We were lucky enough to have perfect weather for the whole trip and to experience the Jazz and Blues festival at Klepida, not to mention the best tour leader ever.
The most moving experience of the trip was being invited to join a young man who was about to propose to his girlfriend in the main square in Vilnius, Eventually 1000 people assembled and witnessed the proposal. She accepted his proposal and everyone was so happy!!
Vaida was the best tour leader I have ever had. She was caring and considerate and always concerned for everyone in the group's welfare. She organised everything well including the restaurants which she joined us at each night. Her knowledge of each of everywhere we visited was amazing and nothing was too much trouble for her.
Leave your hairdryer at home they are provided everywhere.
A lot is packed into this trip and that is a good thing. The changes from city to countryside to beach to city allows you to fully appreciate the diversity of nature that the Baltics have. The cities are interesting historically and architecturally.
- The northern Estonian coast - Riding along the beach
Excellent! And excellent again!
Go with an open mind. Don't expect fine hotels - they are OK, comfortable and well situated. If you want 5 star this is not for you.
I did the first one back around 2002. It was fantastic. I had a great time. I shared my accom with a Scot from Glasgow, who was an interesting character, I’ll leave it at that. We started in Vilnius and ended in Tallinn. By the look of the 2016 course guide it looks similar to 2002, just in reverse. There were only 5 of us, including Paulius our local leader from Klaepedia. The scenery was great. Lots of stone cottages, stone walls and roosting storks on farmhouse chimneys. The pace was nice and easy, no big hills to negotiate although a few long gradual climbs, that got the cardio system pumping. Back then you needed a separate visa to enter Latvia, but not the other 2 countries. This may have changed, if not don’t think you can wing it at the border. It cost me a lost day in Vilnius, Lithuania while I negotiated with the Latvian embassy to get a visa after paying “an emergency process fee” in USD to the official who finally issued my visa.
Making contact with my relatives in Lithuania for the 1st time, and then meeting up them after the cycling tour was over and having a fantastic time with my uncle, aunts, cousins and their kids.
He was excellent.
Probably covered it in my summary
Pleasant cycling across 3 countries. Flat, green landscapes. Amazing history and culture in the 3 capital cities
Walking around Tallin, Riga and Vilnius. Staying in some great hotels. Cycling on quiet roads. Not seeing any British stag parties in the cities!
Lucas was great - very informative and a good sense of humour
You may want to spend an extra night at the start and/or end to see Tallinn and Vilnius in more depth.
An excellent family cycling trip, with plenty of time to appreciate the endless countryside (as well as the cities) of the Baltic States.
Visiting the old cities of Tallinn, Riga and Vilnius
Vaida was an outstanding group leader, totally dedicated to her role, and very caring with the children. She went well beyond what we expected for a guide. Tadas, our driver was also excellent, and very reliable, in his own quiet way - following behind the bikes in his van if anyone needed help, and getting the bikes ready each morning.
The trip works well for families (we were the first Exodus family trip), but best for older, rather than younger teenagers, who can find cycling each day a bit repetitive, and don't always have the stamina. Weather can be quite variable - just like the UK - so plan for sun, cloud and rain. Hire bikes were fine - newish hybrid bikes with standard brakes and 24 speeds, quite heavy but reliable and ideal for the cycling conditions.
