Why Vilnius is a smart choice?



10.08.2020, Vilnius

This time we want to present a shortlist of things to do in Vilnius

WHY VILNIUS IS A SMART CHOICE?

  • Vilnius is still an undiscovered destination among travelers. It is a great opportunity to bring your friends or family to a new environment. The Lithuanian capital is perfect for a 2 / 3 days trip which can combine different aspects: cultural and historical tours, museums, and fun activities. 
  • Close. Vilnius is no more than three hours of flight away from major Western European capitals.
  • Right size. Vilnius is a very compact city. Most of the sights can be reached on foot. The transfer from the airport to the city centre takes only 15 minutes.
  • Relaxed destination. Here you can rest from the hectic traffic and stroll through the Old Town streets with no rush.

WHAT YOU CAN DO IN VILNIUS?

  • Daytime activities in Vilnius:

    • Hot air balloon flight – Vilnius offers a unique opportunity to fly over the city in a hot air balloon! Such a great sightseeing tour is possible only in a few European cities.
    • Half-day tour to Trakai – a cozy and beautiful town just 25 km from Vilnius and former capital of Lithuania. The highlight of Trakai is the famous insular castle on the Lake Galvė, which dates back to the 15th
    • Jeep safari tour to an old village Šilėnai. 4 x 4 off-road trip is a great opportunity to explore Lithuanian nature, visit an old village while driving across challenging forest tracks. During the trip, it is possible to drive the vehicle yourself. This is a great way to get closer to nature, learn new skills together, and engage in team-building.

  • Evening activities:

    • Kitchen & wine party with a Lithuanian chef. During this modern Lithuanian kitchen party, you will learn all about our traditional dishes, special local ingredients, and how to prepare the dishes in an innovative and modern way.
    • Dinner at the restaurant “Sweet root”. The restaurant focuses on the local cuisine inspired by the changing seasons. “Sweet Root”’s menu is based on Lithuanian cuisine, which changes depending on the season, and the ingredients available locally.
    • Dinner with a Cepelinai show. We invite you to enjoy Lithuanian hospitality at its best at a very local tavern in Vilnius, and see an authentic program – “Cepelinai” show. The restaurant’s owner will tell you all about Lithuanian culinary heritage and will invite you for a drink tasting afterward.
