Tours in Baltic states

Baltic states

Are you looking for an exceptional bike tour in Europe? The Baltic states are three small countries of northeastern Europe, on the eastern shore of the Baltic Sea. These countries have a long interesting history, and an impressive cultural heritage dating back to the Hanseatic League. The region’s 175,015 km2 are home to 6.3 million people, nearly half of them in Lithuania.

Embarking from Vilnius, Lithuania’s historic and vibrant capital, a cycling journey along the Baltic coast unveils a mesmerizing blend of ancient traditions, pristine nature, and Baltic charm. As you pedal northwards, Lithuania’s sand dunes and pine forests guide you to Latvia, where the coastal city of Liepāja greets with its blend of Soviet relics and modern vibrancy. Further on, the captivating streets of Riga, with their Art Nouveau architecture, beckon for exploration.
Estonia’s stretch of the journey promises rugged coastal trails, punctuated by ancient fortresses and serene fishing villages. The road culminates in Tallinn, a city where medieval splendor meets modern energy, its old town a UNESCO World Heritage site filled with cobblestone streets and fairy-tale charm. Throughout this Baltic odyssey, cyclists experience a region rich in history, natural beauty, and a unique northern allure.

REASONS TO DISCOVER LITHUANIA

For Vilnius old town

Vilnius old town is one of the largest and most exquisite old towns in Central and Eastern Europe and the most northernmost capital city which took over the architectural styles of old Southern and Western Europe.

Neringa

Sands right in the middle of Europe? Unbelievable, but true! Wandering dunes. Standing on the peak of dunes you’ll enjoy a breathtaking view: hills of white sand and waves of the Baltic, the verdure of pine trees and calm Curonian Lagoon. You get the feeling of listening to the symphony of wind, sand and water performed by nature.

For unique traditions and authenticity

In 2003, UNESCO announced the Lithuanian tradition and symbolism the masterpiece of the oral and intangible heritage of humanity.

REASONS TO DISCOVER ESTONIA

Historical Places

Estonia’s previous place in the Soviet Union has left the country with a distinct historical post. Today, old Soviet buildings and vehicles are still ubiquitous. Estonia is a must visit for history and war buffs alike.

The beach scene

Estonia’s white sandy beaches are a popular spot for tourists and locals in the summer. Estonia’s beach scene is also far more than tanning by the water; from sailing to windsurfing, Estonia offers plenty of water activities for those seeking an active holiday.

Cultural richness

Its nordic and medieval history, contrasted with the folklore traditions of its ethnic minorities, provides Estonia with a colorful and rich cultural diversity.

REASONS TO DISCOVER LATVIA

Art nouveau architecture

For fans of this theatrical style of architecture and design, there’s simply no better destination than Rīga. The city’s architects got completely carried away with this trend when it swept Europe around the beginning of the 20th century and, despite the wartime devastation, over 750 art nouveau buildings remain.

Beautiful beaches

First-timers to the Baltic are often surprised by just how beautiful the beaches are. Granted, it doesn’t quite have the climate to match, but in the height of summer, the endless golden sands are a perfect place to relax.

Old Rīga

It’s lost its walls and it isn’t as cutesy as others across Europe, but the old town in Latvia’s capital, Rīga, still has an impressive array of historic buildings, oversized churches and cobbled lanes. Best of all are the many sunny squares filled with beer gardens and street cafes.
