Vilnius: Embark on an extraordinary trip from this perfect launching pad for intrepid explorers. Beyond the majestic medieval old town and lush parks lies a vibrant metropolis buzzing with trendy bars and unique restaurants.
Daugavpils: Explore Church Hill's diverse churches and thriving arts scene, and experience authentic everyday life in this lesser-known city. Daugavpils is Latvia's cultural hub on the Daugava River.
Riga: Hidden gems await through the diverse and enchanting streets of Riga. Head to the Central Market housed within a repurposed zeppelin hangar to sample authentic Latvian cuisine and artisanal beers.
How to get to Estonia: Take the train to the border town of Valga to change from a Latvian train to an Estonian train to continue your journey.
Tartu: Get ready for a surprising city that stimulates both mind and soul! Tartu University shapes the very fabric of life here, so enjoy the vibrant creative scene and pulsating nightlife.
Tallinn: Tallinn has thrived since the Soviet Union's collapse, embodying the perfect blend of old-world charm and modern innovation—experience candlelit medieval-themed and trendy hangouts.
Reality check: The pace of life is much slower in the Baltics, and some trains run with limited schedules or on certain days only (this trip is for free spirits who love the journey more than the destinations).
