Overview

A historical small-group tour from Vilnius to Trakai, Kaunas & Kernavė. Each of these capitals, however brief (Trakai told to be less than a decade) has a storey to tell - from the ancient hill fort of Kernavė to the interwar capital of Kaunas.

Throughout this journey I will share the broad brush as well as pivotal moments which have shaped the beloved nation of Lithuania I now call home with my wife and son. I will also be playing songs, from eurovision to chants of the forest by the fire.

After a drive through the UNESCO old town and central business district of Vilnius, we will stop in the Soviet neighbourhood of Karoliniškės for a coffee and pastry (included).

Our next stop is Trakai and the beautiful island castle. We have 1 hour here, yes I have towels ;)

Kaunas will be 2 hours either together or splintered off, as you wish and you can also join me for lunch. We will make a quick stop at the ninth fort fascism monument on the way back.

Finally we have 90 mins in Kernavė!
