Join me in my little red bus with up to 8 persons and we can take the day to explore Lithuania from Vilnius. The main trip would be to Kaunas for a spot of lunch with a stop at Trakai (famous castle and town) on the way outt and a stop at Rumšiškės ethnographic museum on the way home. But there are options, both when you are picked up but where we go. For example it could be a whirlwind all the way out to the Hill of Crosses with photo opportunities, stories, and music along the way. I have a professional background in environmental science, enjoy nature and the outdoors and have a relatively deep knowledge of Lithuanian history. Whatever you are looking for, I can do my best to accommodate! Can check more out at tour lithuania.
