Recommended to get to know the city

5.00A fun way to explore the city! You have a first impression of the area and get interesting information about what you can do next days (museums, restaurants, sights,...). The snack-stop was quite busy in a small room. But definitely recommended, especially with the guide I had (but I forgot her name ... something from Zilma or something?)

5.00Our guide Sarunas was extremely knowledgeable and gave us an excellent walking tour including history and some interesting side notes. The tour went at a very nice pace. We did not feel rushed and he even spent extra time with us to give us some more details about the various stops along the tour. He interacted with all of the members of our group and was extremely friendly.
Interesting & Informative

5.00Our guide was Sarunas. He was entertaining, knowledgeable and qwerky in his style. He gave out interesting facts about Vilnius, Lithuania and the Baltic States while showing us Vilnius old town. Going into the Republic of Uzupis was particularly novel.

5.00Milda D. has delighted the small group even in freezing cold. She guided us Vilnius and showed us many hidden corners. She was able to get numerous facts about buildings, land, people and their culture. Cool and delicious also the stop in a small shop where the typical snacks were served and there was also interesting information. The tour is highly recommended.
A lovely morning with Mildas D

5.00Mildas D was an incredible guide! I loved this tour and it was a great start to my time in Vilnius. She led the small but chatty group so well: she gave us time to talk with each other but moved us along as needed. She’s helpful and cheerful and so knowledgeable about history and culture. She even gave me some personal recommendations for Lithuanian food nearby. I’d book a tour with her again in a heartbeat! Thank you Mildas!!
Great walkaboout to get an orientation of Vilnius

4.00A good overview of Lithuanian history with focus on the Old Town buildings and significance. The tour was informative and well paced. A good introduction to Lithuania and Vilnius. I recommend it for first time visitors on the first day to get an orientation and then visit on your own in-depth. The coverage is good so you have an idea of what to do more later. The snack samplings is a nice touch. We were served local white cheese, apple cheese, smoked sausages, tree cake, rye bread, and Giira drink. It was at a local specialty shop homey decor and homemade everything. Great way to sample local ingredients and food. We weren’t pressured to buy from the shop either. Though all of the snacks were quite good and can’t resist buying one or two favorites. The only reason I knocked down a star is the guide was just ok. She babbled much and was not engaging. She seemed embarrassed at times at the lack of “interesting” points in Lithuanian history. Good tour guides are storytellers that can make any history interesting.
Well recommended

5.00Excellent history tour of primarily the city, focusing on religion and culture. The guide was awesome, interactive and humorous. We had walked through some of the areas before but didn’t understand the importance and history behind it all until this tour.
Very attractive tour, even if you are in Vilnius not for the first time

5.00On February 7, 2026 we had excellent walking tour guided by Arminas. Very intelligent and interesting guide! Even after several trips to beautiful Vilnius I discovered so many new charming places. Idea to combine the tour with the stop to have snacks and tea, and history talk is excellent. Very good suggestions what to do after the tour. Thank you, Arminas!
