Lithuania Trips & Holidays
(5/5)
based on 43 reviews
Before Lithuania holidays became commonplace, it was once only known as a small country ruled a vast empire. Lithuania is rich in history and culture - visitors spending their holidays there will be enchanted by the scenery and how warm and outgoing the local people are.
Though it has a modern day population of less than 3 million, the Grand Duchy of Lithuania was once the largest country in Europe, so if booking Lithuania holidays be sure to explore its vast landscape and tag along to some tours.

More about Lithuania Trips & Holidays
Through the BBC programme 'The Hairy Bikers Northern Exposure' and the more recent screening of ‘War and Peace’ we were re-introduced to our colourful neighbours from the Baltics. The Hairy Bikers served up the splendour of Baltic culture, history, architecture and, last but not least, traditional Baltic cuisine. The programme showed us all there is to know about comfort food from across the Baltic Sea region.
A trip to Lithuania, with its coastal region on the Baltic Sea and borders with Poland and Latvia, offers great traditional dishes with fresh fish and sea food, alongside wonderfully coloured salads and pickled condiments drawing on Russian and Polish influences.
If you watched War and Peace on BBC, here you have the chance to visit the War and Peace film locations, including the battle fields and scenes shot in Vilnius. Contact us to follow in the footsteps of War and Peace.
Vilnius is the capital and largest city in Lithuania, and one of the most popular areas for Lithuania holidays. It was one of the biggest cities in Eastern Europe in the 16th century and today it boasts a beautiful Baroque Old Town, one of the largest in Europe. It is situated in the southeast corner of the country, near the Belarus border, on the banks of the Neris River.
Since Lithuania was the first Soviet Republic to declare independence in 1990, Vilnius has changed to a modern city without losing the style associated with its long history.
Vilnius offers an Old Town with buildings restored in a beautiful manner; a 13th Century Cathedral, dedicated to Saints Stanislaus and Ladislaus and on the UNESCO World Heritage List; centuries of history and culture to explore and all within a city which has all the modern experiences and facilities the demanding traveler could desire.
Moving away from Vilnius, a visit to the Hill of Crosses is essential. Located about 150 miles northwest of Vilnius, is a small hill where many hundreds of thousands of crosses have been placed to represent peaceful resistance to foreign oppression.
We would also recommend the famous Trakai Castle, surrounded by water on an island in Lake Galvé and a major centre of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania.
Due to its size, Walking tours in Lithuania, or Cycling tours, are all recommended to explore this fascinating country at a more leisurely pace. Walking tours in Vilnius can also be extended into the countryside, should you wish to explore beyond the city, choosing Lithuania holidays would be a wise decision, you'd have a lot to see!
We know Lithuania and we will take you there.

We had a great Baltic holiday. Everyone in my family really enjoyed it!
We don't have any negative comments. The Radisson Blu hotels were all excellent. The tour guides were all very good. The tour was very well organized. And we loved the various cities that we visited, especially Riga.
The only small comment we do have is regarding the lunch stop on the journey between Vilnius and Riga. We stopped for one hour or so in a quiet, dull shopping mall. Perhaps it would be better to stop at a nice village restaurant, or provide a picnic stop in a nice park?
Anyway, thanks again for a great holiday. Keep up the good work!

The Kempinski Hotel was absolutely excellent - the welcome, the service (from every member of staff), the breakfast, the rooms, the situation. I do not see how any other hotel in Vilnius could be better.
Vilnius itself, as you probably know, was delightful - the churches, general architecture, cafes and restaurants particularly -all with friendly service and a good grasp of English so I didn't get a chance to try out my Lithuanian!
I was also impressed by the promptness, efficiency and luxury of the two private transfers.
Finally, I should like to thank you for your very efficient booking and provision of services.
I would most definitely highly recommend you and Baltic Travel.
Your sincerely,
Gerry

I would like to compliment Daina on her excellent organisation of our holiday to the Baltic. It was perfect. When there was an odd hiccup she responded immediately with all the necessary information. The fault lay with the guide and not Daina. She will be the reason why I wil be booking further holidays with your company. Please complement her on our behalf.

Dear Inga
Just wanted to thank you very much for organising our trip to Vilnius.
We had a wonderful time.
The hotel Stikliai was beautiful & comfortable & perfectly positioned for us to walk to all the places of interest in the old city.
The staff were all very welcoming and helpful. The breakfasts were amazing.
On your recommendation we took a local bus to Trakai on one day and wondered around the castle. A beautiful place.
We learnt a lot about Lithuania by visiting places of interest, reading and talking to the local people who were very friendly.
We also enjoyed the traditional dishes and loved the unfiltered beer with the lemon in it!
Thank you again for helping us.
Kind regards
Katie

Dear Inga
We have just returned from our Baltic Highlights Tour (with Helsinki addon) booked through yourself. As with our previous trip to Iceland arranged by Baltic Travel Company the service was once again exceptional and an example to other travel companies of how to provide clear and excellent customer service.At every point in our trip arrangements were as specified and we thoroughly enjoyed our holiday, knowing that we were being taken care of by a company who is clearly an expert in their field.Many thanks once again for all your patience and assistance. We would not hesitate to recommend you to others planning the same trips and indeed have already done just that.Should we be looking at any of the other destinations you offer, we will definitely use your company again.Other organisations within the travel industry should take note of the work that you do.
