Bezoek onderweg naar Letland de heilige Hill of Crosses - een iconische plek van het Litouwse geloof, die op elke reiziger een sterke indruk achterlaat. Stop vervolgens bij het buitengewone Rundale Palace - een prachtig barok paleis, vaak het "Letse Versailles" genoemd.
Ontdek in Riga, de hoofdstad van Letland, de jugendstilwijk en de middeleeuwse oude binnenstad, vol boeiende verhalen en architectonische schatten. Maak een korte stop in Parnu om frisse zeelucht op te snuiven voordat je de schoonheid van Tallinn bereikt. De hoofdstad van Estland, met middeleeuwse straten en een modern stadsleven, zorgt voor onvergetelijke herinneringen. Ontdek de historische bezienswaardigheden en de cultuur van de steden door middel van hun must-see attracties.
Extra touch voor deze reis - reis per veerboot over de Baltische Zee naar de dynamische stad Helsinki. Helsinki, de groene hoofdstad van Finland, staat bekend om zijn unieke mix van westerse en oosterse invloeden en is gevuld met een rijke geschiedenis.
Van Vilnius naar Riga, Tallinn en Helsinki - deze reis belooft blijvende herinneringen te creëren. Ervaar de magie van middeleeuwse charme en bruisende energie tijdens deze ultieme rondreis door de Baltische staten en Helsinki. Jouw avontuur wacht!
