Description
Looking for a tour that goes beyond the usual tourist sights?
'Vilnius: From the ‘90s to Now' takes you through the Stotis district, a once-rundown area now undergoing a major transformation.
Unlike other tours, we explore the last 35 years of Lithuania's history, focusing on both modern hotspots and the social and economic changes shaping our people. We also tackle important topics—at the Open Gallery, filled with thought-provoking street art, we’ll discuss social issues like exclusion, poverty, and alcoholism.
Join us on the 2.5-hour 'Vilnius: From the ‘90s to Now' tour and discover contemporary Vilnius through its changing society and culture.
Our journey begins in the bustling Hales Market, a place representing both tradition and transformation. Here, we’ll talk about the country’s shift from a planned economy to capitalism. We’ll then walk through the unpolished Kaunas Street to explore community changes and their broader impact.
Additionally, we’ll discuss migration and its role in shaping Lithuanian identity.
Meet our local guides, who grew up in independent Lithuania and have experienced these shifts firsthand. Engage in discussions with us and fellow travelers about the challenges and opportunities shaping today’s communities.
Join the 'Vilnius: From the ‘90s to Now' tour if you want to explore modern Lithuania and its cultural transformation.
