Step into a world of refined travel as you explore the enchanting capitals of Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia in comfort and style. This carefully curated journey blends cultural discovery with local experiences, featuring private guided tours, handpicked luxury hotels, and seamless travel in a private car with a dedicated driver between the capitals.

Embark on a captivating 10-day journey through the heart of the Baltic States, exploring the rich histories, vibrant cultures, and architectural marvels of Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia.  From the charming streets of Vilnius and Riga to the medieval beauty of Tallinn, each city brings its own unique story and character.

While we know there’s so much more to discover in the Baltics, this tour is designed for those who are time poor but still want to get a real feel for these three incredible countries. That’s why we’ve focused on the capitals - each offering a unique snapshot of the nation’s culture, history, and charm

 

However, if you have more time or want a deeper dive into the local life, we can easily customise a longer tour that explores not only the capitals but also the charming regions of all three countries, or focus on one or two based on your specific interests.

This 10-day tour can also be tailored to match your personal passions. Whether you’re keen on exploring art, craft, food, or outdoor activities, we can design your itinerary to reflect your preferences. Of course, the best experiences may vary depending on the time of year you choose to travel. With private guided tours, leisure time to explore at your own pace, and a range of optional activities, you’ll experience the Baltic capitals in a way that’s meaningful to you.

For those seeking a similar experience at a more accessible price point, we also offer an alternative version of this tour featuring carefully selected 4-star accommodations and comfortable travel by public bus between the capitals.  Both tours can be done also in reverse starting from Tallinn in Estonia.

December is a truly magical time to experience the Charming Baltic Capitals in Style. The festive season brings twinkling lights, cosy cafés, and beautifully decorated Old Town squares, where charming Christmas markets offer traditional crafts, seasonal treats, and a warm, intimate atmosphere. Unlike the bustling markets of Central Europe, the Baltic Christmas markets allow you to soak in the festive spirit at a relaxed pace, with fewer crowds and plenty of space to explore. From Vilnius’ baroque streets to Riga’s medieval heart and Tallinn’s storybook Old Town, each city transforms into a festive wonderland - perfect for those seeking an authentic and peaceful holiday experience. Our Festive Baltic Capitals in Style will take you there.
