Itinerary
Our journey through the Baltic States and Poland starts in the capital of Estonia, Tallinn. The city itself is something of fairytale wonder, perched on a hill overlooking the sea and with a charming medieval old town that's earned itself UNESCO World Heritage status....
We'll spend our morning uncovering the enchanting streets of Tallinn on a guided walking tour. Less than 100 kilometres across the water from Helsinki and midway between St Petersburg and Stockholm, Tallinn has fallen under a multitude of cultural influences over the ...
Today we depart from Tallinn and journey south. In rural Parnu County, we'll pay a visit to the Jaanihanso Cidery for a tour of the orchards and production centre followed by a cider tasting. Established in 2013, Jaanihanso follows traditional cider-making techniques...
Today, we'll explore Riga's enchanting, cobbled streets. Though one-third of Lativa's population lives in the capital, the must-see sites are in a small area, so they're easy to reach on foot. We'll take a guided walking tour of the Old Town, sitting on the banks of t...
Our destination today is Vilnius but we'll make a couple of interesting stops along the way. At the Hill of Crosses near Siauliai, a vast number of rosaries and crosses adorn a small hill. The exact origins of the site are unclear, but it is believed that it began ...
Today, we'll get acquainted with the capital on a walking tour. The city has Catholic and Jewish heritage, which is evident in its architecture. Our walk will take us via the old university which was founded by the Jesuits and was at the centre of the counter reformat...
We'll cross the border into Poland today to spend the next two nights relaxing at our spa hotel in the Masurian Lake District, a scenic destination of over 2,000 lakes connected by numerous canals and rivers which is a magnet for those looking to immerse in nature, an...
We've left today free to enjoy the facilities at the hotel and enjoy the relaxed pace of life here. If you enjoy being active, there are a number of walking and cycle trails around the lake - our hotel has bicycles for rent. If you enjoy wild swimming, there are sever...
Refreshed from our stay in the Lake District, a morning drive brings us to Warsaw. Poland's capital is a wonderfully dynamic and modern city, but reminders of its turbulent history are easy to uncover. After World War II around 85% of its buildings were left in ruins;...
Our final journey of the trip sees us taking a fast, morning train to Krakow, Poland's capital until 1596 and still its most charming city. Dating from the 13th- century, Krakow is a picture-postcard city of narrow streets, grand buildings and al-fresco cafes just beg...
This morning we head out on foot with our guide to explore a different but equally fascinating part of Krakow - the UNESCO-listed Jewish Kazimierz District, the location of the Jewish Ghetto in World War II and the setting for the film Schindler's List. Whilst in thi...
The trip ends after breakfast at our hotel in Krakow. There are no activities planned today, so you are free to depart from Krakow at any time. If your flight is departing later in the day luggage storage facilities are available at our hotel. A transfer to John P...
