Baltic Treasures

Summer Solstice Special - Lithuania's Joninės Midsummer celebration

Lithuania's ancient hillforts, a UNESCO-listed spit of shifting dunes, medieval Old Towns in three capitals, and a Nordic finale in Helsinki. This journey spends real time in Lithuania, where the history runs deepest, then moves north through Latvia and Estonia before crossing the Gulf of Finland. Structure when you want it, freedom when you'd rather explore on your own - twelve days through the corner of Europe most travelers still overlook.
