Vilnius Free Walking Tours

Sightseeing tour agency

😠 We booked a tour for our first day in Vilnius, with the understanding that we'd be notified if it was cancelled due to lack of customers. We were never notified of anything and waited at the meeting point, but no guide ever showed up. They wasted our time, and when you're trying to explore new place...

Užupis Cat

Sculpture

👍👍 I scratched it behind the ear, even rubbed it's belly as me and my friends decided it'd have a higher chance of working, unfortunately my scorching desire to go back to sleep has not been calmed, as above so below, I heard the cat breathing, but don't take me for a trusty word as I'm schizophrenic

Vilnius Kenesa

Place of worship

👍👍 Vilniaus kenesa Karaimų bendruomenė Vilniuje buvo įregistruota 1880 m. Pamaldos tuo metu vykdavo privačiose patalpose. Susibūrus Vilniuje XX a. pradžioje gana gausiam karaimų inteligentijos būriui ir aktyviai besirūpinant tautos tapatumo, kultūros, religijos ir ypač kalbos išsaugojimu, atsirado por...

Mount Gediminas Previous

Castle

👍👍 The tower and the hill it lies on provides a perfect panorama over Vilnius. This is a must do if you visit Vilnius. Please be careful on the climb to the tower during snow as it’s very slippery. The funicular is cheap and great during bad weather. 1€ one way.

Bekešo kalnas

Historical landmark

Table Hill

Historical landmark

👍 Pievelė ant kalno. Per medžius Vilnius nelabai matosi. Vilniaus Stalo kalnas – kalnas, stūksantis Vilniaus centre, Kalnų parko teritorijoje, Vilniaus pilių kultūrinio rezervato archeologijos paminklas. Pavadinimą kalnas gavęs dėl savo formos – viršūnėje jis lygus kaip stalas. Priešais – Trijų Kryžių...

Altana Hill

Scenic spot

👍👍 One of the most beautiful panoramas of Vilnius opens from this mountain. Not much worse than the one that can be seen from the Three Crosses Hill. You need to climb to the top not according to the navigation, but from Krivių street past the Užupis gymnasium by a path that is easy to find after going...
