Lithuania

Lithuania is a captivating gem in Eastern Europe, offering a rich tapestry of culture, history and natural beauty. From the lush landscapes of Aukštaitija National Park to the stunning, UNESCO-listed Hill of Crosses, Lithuania’s cultural and historical sites are both profound and enchanting. The Curonian Spit, with its serene dunes and charming towns like Nida and Juodkrante, provides a unique blend of natural splendor and quaint village life. Klaipeda’s blend of modern vibrancy and historical charm complements Vilnius' eclectic architecture and vibrant Old Town, while Trakai’s picturesque castle and tranquil lakes offer a glimpse into the country’s medieval past. Lithuania’s diverse cuisine, from hearty traditional dishes to modern culinary delights, reflects its rich cultural heritage and makes every visit a memorable experience.

The Baltic States, comprised of Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania, are some gems that don't get as many visitors as Southern and Western Europe, but they should! Think of castles, alleyways filled with medieval history and quirky shops, a truly brilliant food scene, and you will find yourself in this part of Europe.

Among the red tile roofs of the Baltic states, Vilnius stands out among the Baltic capitals for its charming Old Town, surprising food scenes and welcoming people. Vilnius is a UNESCO World Heritage Site that sits along the Neris River and used to be the capital of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania. The city has expanded from its charming old city and developed into a great food city.
