well organised full day, Daiva was a great guide, handled the monastery closure well and restructured the trip, plenty of time to wander Kaunas guided and unguided, with a thought provoking trip to the park to end the day. wholly recommended.
Beautiful tour!

Daiva was very nice. She explained everything very well and answered all my questions. She didn’t rush thru the tour and help me take pictures.

Excellent tour. Bruno is young, knowledgeable, and very friendly, making the experience both informative and enjoyable. His car was comfortable, and his excellent English skills made communication easy. He went above and beyond to ensure we had a great time, sharing interesting insights and local tips along the way. Highly recommended!

Our tour guide was very knowledgeable, on time and polite. He also knew where the best local food was (get the Zeplin) and kept us on schedule.
