Lithuania

Though occasionally overshadowed by fellow Baltic states Latvia and Estonia, to those in the know, Lithuania is considered one of Europe’s best kept secrets.

Begin your adventure in the capital city of Vilnius, regarded by many as the ‘Rome of northern Europe’, where unusual architecture, baroque splendour and artistic flourishes mingle amongst the bars, restaurants and green spaces that have earned it such a beguiling reputation.

For the more discerning traveller, outside Vilnius you’ll such oddities as a Soviet sculpture park, a disused nuclear missile site-turned-museum and the Hill of Crosses, not to mention stunning hidden beaches along its bracing Curonian Spit coastline.
