Journey to the centre of Europe and discover the secrets of the southernmost country in the Baltic states with one of our trips to Lithuania. A former Soviet bloc nation lying on the border of Poland, Latvia and Belarus, the nation has a rich and storied history. This is a place of wonder, with castles, lakes and forests; vast plains parted by hills; and sand dunes along the Baltic shore. Meanwhile, the towns are full of eccentric shops and bohemian galleries.
On Lithuania holidays, adventurers can hike or cycle the countryside around the Curonian Lagoon, or take a boat trip in Trakai Historical National Park. Before you leave, don’t forget to try the national dish cepelinai (zeppelins) – meat and potato dumplings – and savour fresh-off-the-line seafood, all washed down with a glass of local midus, a type of honey mead.
Our Lithuania holidays offer you the chance to visit this beautiful Baltic nation, as well as some of its neighbours, encompassing attractions such as a trip to Kaunas, the Plokstine Cold War Museum, an overnight stay in Vilnius and the stunning pilgrimage site at the Hill of Crosses. Whatever takes your fancy, here at Exodus we’ll endeavour to make sure your Lithuania holiday is an unforgettable adventure.
From the seaside beach town of Palanga to the unusual UNESCO World Heritage-listed Curonian Spit sand dunes, known as the Lithuanian Sahara, and the dense green forests of the Ventė Cape, nature and wildlife are abundant on Lithuania tours.
“On a secluded island, just off the shores of tranquil Lake Galvė in Lithuania, stands the orange-hued castle of Trakai. Don’t be fooled by its quaint demeanour, though – Trakai Castle has a long history of intrigue and warfare, stretching back to the 14th century. After crossing the long footbridge to the castle proper, you’ll be greeted by majestic Eastern European architecture and a treasure trove of culture and history, just waiting to be discovered.”
