Private tour to Trakai and Kernave

Visit Lithuania and not to visit the legendary Trakai Castle – so do not visit Lithuania.Everytime you Google info about Lithuania you will definetelly find a pictures of Trakai castle and its surroundings-its a trademark of Lithuania and second most visited site among tourists.

Trakai and Kernave – two historical capital of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, surrounded by amazing nature.

This trip is relaxing and comfortable because of surrounding beautifull nature and amazing views.

Trakai Castle is lovely any time of year, but in the warm season Trakai offer tourists not only visit the historic sights, but also plenty of fun activities, such as concerts in the castle and the palace Tyshkevichs or sailing on the lake Galves.

From a period of Great Grand Duchy of Lithuania Trakai is famous as karaite ethnic community residence and tartar community also lives here.As far as visit to the castle a stop in karaite local restaurant to try its famous pastry kibinas a must visit thing to do.

Because castle is surrounded by 4 lakes and lots of islands we gonna explore the beauty by private trip on small electric boat and sail around the castle and islands.Swimming in the lake optional (need to be told in advance).

Then we will make stop at the site of most beautifull Lithuanian manor estate Tyshkevich manor estate .The park of manor estate is designed by Versailles park author E.Andre and has a magic view to the castle.Lovelly musuem inside.

From Trakai we proceed to Kernave-the cradle of Lithuania,the birthplace of our country .

Unique place Kernave -UNESCO world heritage nature site.Once the first capitol of Lithuania now its a place of nature trails and majestic beauty and calmness.

Time spent in Kernave will ease your mind and soul and lets you get away from city rush.Its always a great idea to escape from city sounds and enjoy the shapes of mounds and Neris river bends.Walking in Kernave its trully fun .

For the nature lovers its maybe number 1 spot in Lithuania.You can get local hand made souvenirs,local honey, bread or milk from local people.

The tour is suitable only in good weather and mostly provided during late spring -late autumn rich in colours and sounds.In winter its absolutelly silent.

Choose the best time for you and lets make a get away tour at one of most beautifull sites rich in hIstory and nature beauty.

Dear Marius, I hope you are doing well. We are back home in California after completing our family tour that took us all the way to Moscow. My brother, sister-in-law and my wife want to thank you for a great guided tour of Kaunas and Vilnius. You are multi-talented. A great driver. A knowledgeable tour guide. An informed historian. And a linguist. Without your tenacity and language skills we would not have located a possible distant relative on the banks of the Nemunas River in Kaunas. You went way beyond the call of duty to serve us. You not only showed us the usual important sites but you took that interesting side roads to give us a unique tour of Lithuania. Your love for life and your country was evident in all you did for our whole day. You are a very generous person. We will recommend your guiding services to anybody wanting a the touring experience of a life-time. Thanks for a great day in Lithuania. It was a real highlight of our whole tour.

Vilnius-Trakai-Kernave Tour 2014

Wembley Catenians

I had a chance to host a group from London that came to Vilnius for a long weekend. As I am not professional in this area, I was looking for professional guide. This is how I met Marius. The scope was walking tour in Vilnius old town, second day driving to Trakai and Kernave, third day – Turgeliai, Medininkai castle and other nice places on the way. The group was very happy about the services Marius provided, but they are nice people, they would say this in any case. Meanwhile I am not a nice person. I was looking after him very carefully: his punctuality, English level, historical knowledge and attitude in general. And what can I say – everything was just great. He is a real professional, intelligent and pleasant person who will always do an extra mile to please the client. I would definitely recommend him! Thank you and good luck, Marius! Ausra

JEWISH HERITAGE TOUR VILNIUS

Joan and Jerry Kaskowitz

Marius – sorry for the delay in thanking you for the very thoughtful and complete visit to the Jewish Heritage sites in Vilnius, but we have been going non-stop since our OAT tour began. We were impressed by, and grateful for, the attention and care that you showed during our full day together and really touched by our visits to the former Jewish sites and especially to the Paneriai Monument where you provided the yahrzeit candles. It made the visit very meaningful. By the end of the long day we felt we had a better understanding of what Jewish life had been in Lithuania and how it had been destroyed. Ending the day with the fine Lithuanian dinner confirmed that we had also made new friends. Thank you very much for all your efforts. Best wishes, Joan and Jerry Kaskowitz

Mr.Yoni Novick with a familly-Israel and South Africa.

If you check out one Web site or send one email in advance of your trip to Lithuania, it should be to Marius! He will take care of you from A to Z from the minute you land to the minute you depart. He is super knowledgeable and we learned so much from him. His love for his country and specifically for its Jewish history is so evident. Marius is definitely the way to go!

You had done a Lithuania tour for my family (the Naujokas Family, we traveled to Vepriai- Nida-Zypliai-Klaipeda-Vidukle) about a month ago. We are still all talking about what a great trip it was, how lucky we are that we chose you as our guide and how important it was to have been able to go and see the country where our relatives came from. All of us still remember your kindness and attitude for ourselves.How willing you were to help us in locating the places were our relatives were born or died. You are great person and patriot of your country may God bless You and your familly. I did give your name out to someone who was thinking about going on a trip to Lithuania. Hopefully you are continuing to have a busy summer giving tours. Best regards Linda (Lukosevicius-Bald)
