Testimonials
Justinas,
It has been several months since my sister Mary and I took Visit Lithuania's “Lithuanian Experience” tour. I have delayed sending this testimonial because I wanted to be able to tell you about how our tour guide set in motion a series of events that ended last month with us finding our family in Lithuania. We are thrilled!
As I mentioned in my email below, the “Lithuanian Experience” tour and the service your company provided exceeded our expectations. We had researched Lithuania beforehand and chose your tour because it visited the top cultural and historical sites we wanted to see and included personal experiences we would not have been able to obtain on our own, such as in Dzukija National Park. We really enjoyed the Skamba Skamba Kankliai festival in Vilnius at the end of our tour. Timing the tour dates to coincide with cultural events is an another advantage of your tours. The hotels and meals were all very good and the van we toured in was comfortable, and the airport transfers were very convenient. One thing we especially appreciated was the flexibility of „Visit Lithuania“ and the personal attention you gave us. We were able to change our plans, while we were on the tour, for the extra days we stayed in Lithuania following the tour (you canceled the rental car and the hotel in Panevezys and arranged for us to remain at our hotel in Vilnius),. There's not very many travel companies that would let you modify your travel arrangements on such short notice.

Our visit to Rumsiskes was very enjoyable, another excellent guide showed to us the farmhouses and Inns which would have been appropriate to our ancestors living in Dzukia in the 19th. century. We were surprised at the pretty things they made for their homes and for their own clothing, also the wooden creations such as bouncing cradles, baby stands, baby walkers, lunch boxes, dog kennels etc. which we had thought were modern inventions! The 300km. journey to Klaipeda was along a very good dual carriage way, the scenery alternating between forest and farmland. Our excellent driver stopped at a beautiful place for a lunch break. It was a long day and we felt very sorry for the driver who then had to return to Vilnius. He was very much appreciated. We spent the next day discovering the Curanian Spit National Park and the dunes at Nida. The first thing my daughter said to her husband on arrival home was "I have found the perfect place to visit for total relaxation." She loved it. The next morning at 9am. our driver arrived from Vilnius to take us back there, via the Hill of Crosses, which was well worth visiting. This time the driver very kindly took us to a lovely old windmill for lunch. We felt very safe walking round Vilnius and Klaipeda in the evenings. We found many very good restaurants, with reasonable prices, and enjoyed the food and the atmosphere. In Summary; One of the best and most interesting holidays we have had. Lithuania has an interesting past, present and future. The people are very pleasant, stylishly dressed, and hard working. We are pleased Lithuania has become a member of the E.U. and hope it is of help to you. "Visit Lithuania" is an excellent company with a very caring President and high quality staff. They are friendly, most helpful and well mannered. It is rare to meet such wonderful courtesy. I happily recommend this company to anyone visiting Lithuania. J. Holden England 20th -26th.
