This is a great bike tour around Vilnius. You get to see lots of Vilnius during the tour, and the tour guide is very knowledgeable about the history of Vilnius. It’s a great way to orientate yourself to the city and find out about the history of Vilnius and Lithuania.
Very knowledgeable and nice guide for this tour. Riding a bike allows you to reach the hot spots without losing time and see places that would not be reached by feet. Being with a local guide helps to understand the mindset and culture as well! Really suggested!!
