The three Baltic states of Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia offer a wealth of interest to the visitor and now is a great time to visit before they become overdeveloped. The three capitals of Vilnius, Riga and Tallinn each offer a distinctive character, whilst the warm welcome you will recieve is common to all three.

Brilliant tour. Very good guides throughout. Exceptional value for money. Would that much more expensive travel companies (eg The Traveller) could provide such quality!
