Wonderful experience
Wonderful experience. Went with an older friend and our captain made sure she got in and out of the balloon basket easily and safely. Our Captain, Vytautas Samarinas, was fantastic. His confidence and experience made you feel safe, which made the flight more enjoyable. It was worth the price. Especially, since pickup and drop off were included.

Had a fantastic trip to Trakai with Jim. He’s a great guide — charming, laid-back, knowledgeable, and clearly someone who genuinely loves what he does and loves sharing Lithuania with visitors. The whole day felt relaxed and fun, and everyone in our group seemed to have a great time. Highly recommend Jim if you’re visiting Vilnius and want to experience a bit more of Lithuania!

A Memorable Trip

Tour to Ponary Memorial Park, The Hill of Angels & Trakai Castle

A Memorable Trip
First of all, huge kudos for not cancelling the trip - I was the only traveler that day, so it was essentially a private tour on a small-group price! The meeting place was easy to locate - it's actually not within the square, but just outside where the city sightseeing tour bus usually departs. My guide found me easily.The iffy thing that day was the weather - a huge windstorm was forecast to hit in the late afternoon, and it was rainy early in the morning. Somehow, our luck held and we never really experienced any rain or very high winds. First stop was the memorial park, a sombre, peaceful forest that hid an atrocious history. The atmosphere after the rain was appropriately grey and peaceful - an uneasy sort of tranquility especially in the context of the site's history.The Hill of Angels was next, and that was fun! Various sculptures and statues made for interesting photography, showcasing the woodcarving traditions of Lithuania. It was not crowded (probably because of the wind warnings), and I had a great time there.Finally, Trakai Castle. It was quite an interesting place with its medieval history and geography, and we spent the most time here - about 2 hours. We explored the aristocratic and military rooms, the various exhibits (can be overwhelming if time is short, so I suggest picking the most interesting ones and stick with them). Lunch was on my own, and I had one of the yummy Kibinai pastry stuffed with lamb. Sitting with a warm lunch by the lakes of Trakai was really nice.My guide dropped me back into Vilnius by 3:30 pm, still rain-free but the winds were picking up. I thanked her graciously for her time and knowledge, and was very happy with the entire trip.

Pickup was confusing because of street closures for an event but the guide found us. It was only 3 of us in the group. The guide was very good, but a little hard to understand at times, which was fine because English was not her first language. She was very knowledgable and explained everything well. It was a very good tour.

A phenomenal tour guide created a memorable experience
My guide, Jurate, is a learned scholar of Lithuanian history and culture. She provided a detailed, lived history of the people and places seen on the tour. She was open to my many questions, and thoughtfully tailored the places we explored to best meet my interests. Soft-spoken Jurate created an emotionally powerful experience for me.

Climbing into the basket was like climbing a ladder- not to difficult for most people. The balloon ride itself is a very relaxing and beautiful experience. The views are incredible.

Wonderful Guide, Unforgettable Experience!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐We had a wonderful experience with our guide during our time in Lithuania! We spent two days together, and she truly made our visit so much more meaningful and enjoyable.On our first day, we did a combination walking and driving tour of Vilnius. We explored the beautiful Old Town and also ventured beyond the historic center to see Soviet-era buildings and learn more about Lithuania’s more recent history. She was incredibly knowledgeable and shared so much history and context in a way that was interesting, easy to follow, and never overwhelming.On our second day, we visited Trakai, which was another highlight of our trip. Throughout both days, she was pleasant, calm, patient, and simply a pleasure to have around. Traveling as a family, we especially appreciated her relaxed approach and her ability to make the experience enjoyable for everyone.We came away feeling that we had learned and experienced so much more of Lithuania than we ever could have on our own. We absolutely loved our time with her and would not hesitate to book with her again. We highly recommend her to anyone visiting Vilnius and Lithuania!

Great Experience with Kernave & Trakai
We had a wonderful time with Dominic who made it an experience to remember. He was very knowledgeable. Dominic expertly guided us through Kernave, then ran us by the Hill of Angels, after which we did a short circuit on the far side of the lake at Trakai. He arranged a boat tour and we enjoyed a very nice local lunch at Blynu Namai. Highly recommend the tour and ask for Dominic.
