13 days in Kaunas Itinerary

Situated between the Neris and Nemunas rivers, Kaunas is known for its old town, which, though smaller than the capital's, is in much better condition.

Get out of town with these interesting Kaunas side-trips: Vilnius (Hill of Three Crosses, Walking tours, &more), Dzūkija National Park (in Merkine) and Trakai (Church of Nativity of Most Holy Mother of God & Trakai Island Castle Museum). There's lots more to do: visit Old Town, pause for some photo ops at Laisves Karys, examine the collection at National M. K. Ciurlionis Art Museum, and test your problem-solving skills at popular escape rooms.
