Baltics and Poland City Life and Nature in 13 Days
This is all-urban experience. To get more contrast we start in Krakow, Poland and will work our way to Tallinn, Estonia to make sure we meet all the differences in between. We will tick 4 beautiful countries – Poland, Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia. Starting from historical royal Krakow to unparalleled Warsaw. Next stop –Kaunas, the former capital of Lithuania, the unsung hero city of Lithuania and, of course, visit Vilnius – the current capital. Keep in mind all red roofs of Vilnius because these roofs will be the first recognizable thing in Riga too. Some say Vilnius and Riga are quite similar, others deny this – well, you’ll get the chance to compare it by yourself. Your last stop on this beautiful journey – charming Tallinn with all secrets, stories and legends about it.
