Even though there was no snow, the ride on wheels was still a lot of fun – exciting, well organized, and a great experience with the huskies. The dogs were full of energy and clearly very well taken care of. What we especially appreciated was how flexible the team was with pickup and drop-off, which made the whole trip super easy and stress-free for our group.

Travel from Riga to Vilnius with stops at Bauska Castle, Rundale Palace, and the Hill of Crosses in one useful Baltic day trip.
“This tour is a brilliant way to travel from Riga to Vilnius whilst seeing more of Lativa and Lithuania. All 3 of the stops were really interesting and worth a visit.

He clearly doesn't enjoy the job and…”

“Great bike tour, we went all around the city, and really saw a lot in the 2.5 hours. Our guide was great, very knowledgeable and enjoyable, and his English was very good. I really liked the earpiece so that we could ride our bikes while hearing him point out places and share bits of information, in between the stops we made. I also liked that he didn’t go too slow on the bikes, so we could actually enjoy riding a bike. I definitely recommend this tour!”

“RECOMMEND! It was exactly as promised. A comfortable, small-group drive through the lush green countryside of Latvia and Lithuania; an interesting backgrounder and history lesson upon arrival; a solemn and sobering pilgrimage through the site to the monastery; a border stop for pictures; a slow drive through Jelgava with its Soviet style architecture and a stop at its ornate Orthodox Church with more historic commentary. We had a full day but not an exhausting one and there was still plenty of time for more sightseeing in Riga!”
Pick a street, a bog or a castle.
