Tour description

 

Meeting point: the King Mindaugas monument.
The first and the last King of Lithuania. We will continue toward the Cathedral square, the Palace of the Grand Dukes of Lithuania, the Bell tower and the best photo spot of the place. We will visit Simonas Daukantas square, from where you will be able to enjoy one of the most beautiful Empire style buildings in Lithuania – the Presidential palace. We will also get acquainted with Vilnius University history and some interesting facts about the Lithuanian language. We will continue our trip toward the Glass Quarter of Vilnius to uncover Jewish heritage. Wandering the Town Hall square we will learn about Vilnius baroque, local festivals and UNESCO tangible and intangible cultural and natural heritage. We will continue our tour to find out about market traditions, will search for a Golden mouse and will learn why only the City Gate survived till today and why this place for us is so important. By showing some beautiful photo spots, we will continue our trip towards Užupis Republic. Keep your passports or notebooks with you – you will be able to get an official Užupis Republic stamp. After visiting Užupis, we will continue our tour to one of the most iconic places in Vilnius – the Gothic triangle with a smell of amber dust. If you want to discover Vilnius with me, feel free to join my tour!
