Overview

About This Journey

Three Baltic capitals with two nights in each, plus a ferry crossing to Helsinki for the day. The route pairs each city with a countryside excursion: Sigulda and the Turaida Museum Reserve from Riga, Rundale Palace and the Hill of Crosses en route to Vilnius, and Trakai Castle on its island in Lithuania.

Tallinn adds Kadriorg Palace and the medieval old town, and the Helsinki day includes a guided tour and the sea fortress of Suomenlinna. Four-star hotels, coach transfers, and visa assistance are included.
