Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania together form the Baltics, sharing a rich history, vibrant culture, and a stunning 2,000 km Baltic Sea coastline. Once overlooked, this region is now drawing more travellers eager to explore its beauty. While each country has distinct traditions, they can easily be combined for a varied and rewarding journey.
Most visitors start with the capitals—Tallinn, Riga, and Vilnius. However, the Baltics offer much more. Smaller towns, countryside retreats, and coastal escapes provide diverse experiences. Outdoor enthusiasts can enjoy hiking, cycling, and hot air ballooning. National parks, historic churches, and museums highlight the region’s heritage. Sandy beaches, bear-watching hides, and bog walks add to the adventure.
Summer, from June to August, is the best time to visit, with pleasant weather and open attractions. Crowds are manageable, especially outside the capitals. Winter also has its charm, with snow-covered cities glowing under festive Christmas lights.
There are many ways to experience the Baltics. Opt for a self-drive tour, explore with a private guide, join a hiking or biking adventure, or take part in a small-group escorted tour. However you choose to travel, these countries offer an unforgettable journey.
