Adventure Around The Baltic Sea

Tour Map of Adventure Around The Baltic Sea

On this epic three-week journey around the Baltic Sea we'll experience nine different countries, as we travel from Helsinki down through the Baltics to coastal Poland, Kaliningrad and Germany then back into Scandinavia and finish up in Stockholm. We'll see many highlights along the way from fairy tale old towns to scenic islands and from Soviet war relics to alternative hippy communities. We'll get to appreciate first-hand how the scenery, culture and cuisine changes and see areas that few tourists normally visit, as we work our way around this fascinating coastal region.

Get beyond the tourist façade of the countries you visit. Focus on the local culture, past and present, and discover the lifeblood of any country – its people. Discovery and culture tours uncover different ways of life, and offer the opportunity to meet and sometimes stay with local people or tribal groups. Our discovery tours explore cultural sites – both ancient and modern – and help you learn about the people and their culture. Visit the remote tribes of Ethiopia’s Rift Valley, live the nomad life in desert camps or meet the local people of the high Andean altiplano in Peru. There’s no better way to get to the true heart of a country than through its people.

Baltics to St Petersburg

Decades after the fall of communism, the Baltic countries of Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia remain a mystery to most travellers. We’re not complaining, though; more mystery means fewer crowds and an easier time getting to know these fantastic countries. Beginning in charming cobblestoned Vilnius and ending in beautiful Helsinki, this 2-week trip gets to the very heart of the region. Get an up-close glimpse of Riga’s castles and art district, experience rural life in Estonia, and venture into the fortresses and medieval architecture of Tallinn before crossing to Finland by ferry. Make the Baltics your special travel secret.

Transport yourself back to the Middle Ages on this fantastic tour of three classic capitals of the Baltic, staying in centrally located hotels. Within the walls of Tallinn, find an abundance of medieval memories - the Old Town is the best preserved medieval town in Europe and has much about which to boast. Riga is a sophisticated neighbour, with a medieval core surrounded by parks, boulevards and art nouveau. Our final destination is small, pretty Vilnius. Growing as a city and as a tourist destination, it retains a relaxed and authentic cosy old-town charm.
