Top 5 Lithuania Tour Highlights

1. Vilnius
Vilnius, the capital of Lithuania, is renowned for its well-preserved medieval old town, which is a UNESCO World Heritage site filled with baroque architecture, charming cobblestone streets, and historical landmarks like the Vilnius Cathedral and Gediminas Tower. The city boasts a vibrant arts and cultural scene, with numerous galleries, museums, and theaters, alongside a lively nightlife with trendy cafes, bars, and restaurants.

    2. Curonian Spit National Park
    Curonian Spit National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is a striking natural wonder stretching between Lithuania and Russia, known for its unique landscape of towering sand dunes, dense forests, and scenic coastal views. The park is a haven for outdoor enthusiasts, offering activities like hiking, bird-watching, and exploring charming villages like Nida.

      3. Witch Hill
      Witch Hill, located in the village of Juodkrantė on the Curonian Spit, is a fascinating open-air gallery featuring over 80 wooden sculptures that depict characters from Lithuanian folklore and mythology. The sculptures, carved by local artists, create an enchanting and slightly eerie atmosphere as they are nestled among the trees along a forested path.

        4. Kaunas
        Lithuania’s second-largest city, Kaunas is a vibrant cultural hub known for its interwar modernist architecture, historic sites like the Pažaislis Monastery, and the unique Gothic-style Zapyskis Church. The city boasts a lively arts scene, with numerous museums, galleries, and street art installations, making it a dynamic destination for history and culture enthusiasts.

          5. Trakai Castle
          This stunning medieval fortress, situated on an island in Lake Galvė near Vilnius, is one of Lithuania’s most iconic and picturesque landmarks. The castle, with its red-brick towers and scenic surroundings, offers visitors a glimpse into the country’s rich history and serves as a popular destination for both historical exploration and leisurely boat rides.

            This is my 8th Exodus trip since 2017. I appreciate the variety in the cultural tours, such as Discover the Baltics. Over the 12-day period, we visited all three capitals of Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania, explored historic towns (Tartu, Kaunas, Cesis, and Klaipeda), learned about architecture (Art Nouveau in Riga and Jarmala), trekked in national parks, visited famous churches, took a crash course on Soviet occupation at famous museums, and enjoyed free time to explore on our own. The pace is brisk. Be prepared to board your bus at 9 am each day to begin your tour. There are several long days on the bus as we typically visited two venues. I highly recommend this tour.

            Exodus should replace two of the hotels used. They were poor. I did not like being assigned a tiny room with a twin bed.

            FAQs on Lithuania Tours

            Where is Lithuania?

            Lithuania is located in Northern Europe, situated on the southeastern shore of the Baltic Sea. It is bordered by Latvia to the north, Belarus to the east and south, Poland to the south, and Russia’s Kaliningrad Oblast to the southwest.

            Does Lithuania have good cycling?

            Yes, Lithuania is great for cycling enthusiasts. The country offers a variety of cycling routes through picturesque landscapes, from scenic countryside and forest trails to coastal paths. The Baltic Sea coast, including the Curonian Spit, provides beautiful and relatively flat routes with stunning views. There are also dedicated bike paths and routes in cities like Vilnius and Kaunas, making urban cycling enjoyable and safe. For more adventurous rides, the country’s diverse terrain offers opportunities for both leisurely and more challenging cycling vacations.

            Do they speak English in Lithuania?

            Many people in Lithuania speak English, especially in urban areas like Vilnius, Kaunas, and Klaipėda, and in tourist areas. English is commonly used in hotels, restaurants, and tourist attractions. While not everyone speaks fluent English, especially in rural areas, you’ll find that many younger Lithuanians and those working in the service industry can communicate in English.

            How long do I need in Lithuania?

            Our small-group guided tours of the Baltics range in length from 10 to 12 days, and feature between 2 and 5 nights in Lithuania. They offer the perfect opportunity to experience this wonderful nation in its Baltic context.

            When should I visit Lithuania?

            Summer, from June to August, is the most popular time to visit due to the warm weather, long daylight hours, and numerous festivals and events. It’s ideal for enjoying outdoor activities like cycling and hiking the countryside. Spring, from April to May, offers mild weather and fewer tourists, making it a great time to see blooming flowers and the country’s natural beauty coming back to life. Autumn, in September and October, brings cooler temperatures and vibrant fall colors, along with local harvest festivals and seasonal foods. Winter, from November to March, can be quite cold with snow and shorter days, but if you enjoy winter sports or the charm of snowy landscapes and festive holiday markets, it can be a magical time to visit.
