Itinerary
Fairy tale towns, rolling countryside and layered cultures
Discover the captivating beauty of the Baltics on a 10-day journey that takes in the region’s charming cities, hearty cuisine and lesser-known treasures.

Whether you’re chatting with cider makers, walking in a national park or wandering down cobblestone lanes, there is much to enjoy and plenty of surprises along the way traversing three countries whose national sport is mushroom picking.

Intrepid Premium is excellent for those wanting to travel in a small group and at a slightly slower pace. The inclusions were excellent and some fun activities were also part of the tour. Excellent guides, both on tour and locally. I can highly recommend the Intrepid tour of the Baltic countries which showcased the beautiful old towns and also the natural environment. All three countries featured sustainable farming practices and we enjoyed having some meals there as part of the tour.

This is our second Intrepid trip and once again we loved every moment. We knew very little about the Baltic States and left with a good understanding of their history. Intrepid trips appeal because they are like limited to 12 people, accommodation and transport is organised for us and both guides were phenomenal. We also like the free time when we could rest or walk around by ourselves. We would happily book another trip with Intrepid.

We had a wonderful time on this tour! Highlights were the gorgeous Curonian Spit, and the visits to the apple farm and winery - but every day felt special! Our guide Gigi was very approachable and organized, and the hotels were great. Highly recommend this tour as a way to see an under-appreciated part of Europe.

Premium Baltics was my first ever tour. The small group of 10 travellers allowed good friendly connections and efficient travel. Walking tours with local guides helped answer questions about the lives of Baltic people. The tour was packed with learning opportunities while keeping a calm and relaxed pace. The Intrepid guide, Marta, made me feel cared for and supported throughout. I would tour with her again for certain.

This was a marvelous tour. Monika's enthusiasm, knowledge, and leadership really made a difference. The Baltic Countries are amazingly interesting and culturally diverse. One of my favorite Intrepid tours. I want to go back!

This trip thru the Baltics has been an amazing and memorable journey into the past struggles of these countries and an overwhelming outburst from oppression and pain to a magnificent community of gratitude and passion. The Baltics are a wonderful place to visit and enjoy the hospitality.

The intrepid Baltics trip is a must do. This well designed itinerary covered all the highlights of these three amazing countries in an easy and relaxed and informative way. Our host Tatiana was considerate and knowledgeable, managing the small group effectively. Coach was comfortable and the driver safe. If you want to tick off three countries and come away with an understanding of the local people and their history. This is the trip for you

Exceptional trip to a relatively unknown region of the world. I fell in love with the Baltics on this tour: the quiet passion for the land and history, the sophistication and beauty of the cities, the rich and remarkable history, and the serene calm and grace of the countryside. If you’re at all curious about this area, take this tour!
