“Really beautiful Palace with very well planned stops.”
We really enjoyed this tour with lots of cultural stops and breathtaking views. The day before the tour we realised we made a mistake and booked a one-way trip when we had thought we booked a round-trip (our mistake!). We called up the company and got it sorted very easily for a small charge. Very well served! We really enjoyed the trip and had a wonderful guide. Would recommend!

Nuestro guía Andrews estaba puntualmente a las 10hs del jueves 29 de marzo en el hotel Justus, realmente un SEÑOR, sus explicaciones fueron perfectas, su trato excelente y profesional . Visitamos Castillo de Bauska, Palacio rundale y Colina de las Cruces y paramos a almorza en un lugar típico de comida exquisita muy cerca de la colina de las cruces.

Altísimamente recomendable y super confiable.

Muchas gracias.

We enjoyed our excellent day tour from Riga to Vilnius. Our driver/guide was knowledgeable and provided useful history of both countries. The tour covers 3 main interests – the castle, palace and hill of crosses. We have lunch with our guide at a homely Lithuanian restaurant which was delicious. The car used for the day tour was also very comfortable. We highly recommend Discover Lithuania tours!
