Good and well informative trip - within decent time too as we were able to still explore Vilnius a little more when we got back. If we spent longer in trakai then would have had the chance to relax by the lake and take a boat ride.

Originally I was mostly interested in Trakai castle, due to recomendations in the Internet. I did enjoy the visit a lot. Our guide proofed combining the Tour with the topic of jewish history in Vilius and the Holocaust in the 1940th here, is a topic that is more than worth being mentioned on the ride there. Very good knowledge of our guide and I felt very welcome.

A great experience. My tour guide Andrew picked me up from my hotel, took me to the site of the Vilnius Ghetto, followed by the Paneriai Memorial Park, finishing with Trakai Town and its spectacular castle. Friendly and well-versed in Lithuanian history, Andrew made each location come to life. Great value for money – would very much recommend for those travelling solo.

Trakai castle is a stunning site, definitely a must do when you are in Vilnius. I can highly recommend this tour.

This was one of the best tours we have ever had. Inga is a great tour guide and she has in depth knowledge of everything history. Highly recommende! A definite plus was that it was a small tour and had only three people, so we had an even greater immersion into a thousand years of Lithuanian history. Thank you very much for making our tour great.

Lithuanian nature
Nektarios_G

A really enjoyable tour in the Lithuanian nature. We started with the haulocaust memorial of Paneriai (which was a bit frustrating but this is a part of the history and something that we all have to know) and then we were taken to Trakai castle. A really nice site by the lake, the "trade mark" of Lithuania. Don't miss the chance to have a half day off Vilnius, you ll see a part of the country that is really fascinating! We had Inga as our guide whose devotion to her job, her love for the place and her proffesionalism made this excursion, something to remember! Thank you!

This tour was amazing!.Supposed to be a small group, but turned out it was only me. Inga, my tour guide was really wonderful and explained lots of stuff that I did not know. She explained the Jewish heritage in Vilnius then at the Paneriai Memorial Park. She answered my questions and we had good conversation about Lithuania's history afterward. Trakai Castle is really beautiful place surrounding by frozen lake and Inga amazingly explained the history of the castle. I highly recommend this tour to anyone that visit Vilnius!!!

Excellent tour which took in the Jewish heritage of Vilnius firstly. The trip to Panerirai was moving and was well explained. The trip to Trakai was the highlight with a full tour of the castle and an explanation of each room. The final stop was tasting some of the most amazing Kibinai.

This trip to Paneriai and Trakai Castle was great. As advertised small- group, there were only four of us, which was great and allowed us to take our time. The tour was full of history and our guide was very knowledgeable. As we walked around Paneriai she gave us such details that allowed you to imagine the pain and horror that took place in such a beautiful park. Trakai Castle was beautiful as well. Our guide described things in the museum that I probably would have missed if by myself. We were also given time to try the local pastries which were very yummy and I recommend them. I would recommend this tour to my friends for sure...it is a good way to explore more than Vilnius on your Lithuanian get away.

Andreas promptly picked us up at 10:00 in the van. He gave us a brief overview of the Jewish history in Vilna and pointed out some landmarks so we would have context for the Jewish Memorial. Andreas explained everything at the memorial and answered my many questions along the way. I appreciated how knowledgeable he was about the topic and how he addressed all my points. Also, he has a great voice. Andreas should be narrating books. He's great to listen to. We loaded back onto the van and made out way to the castle. It was beautiful and I liked Andreas's narration of Lithuanian history. He kept the castle tour concise so we would have enough time about an hour to wander through the craft stalls and grab a quick bite to eat. Andreas dropped us back at 15:00. It was a wonderful day and very worthwhile trip.

Excellent tour. Inga was a great guide. Her English was good and she knew her subject. She was able to give us lots of information and to answer numerous questions. She was flexible with the timing and did not rush us through the Castle. A tour I would recommend.
