“Karolis is an expert guide, who has a lot of knowledge to share about the old town of Kaunas, and Lithuania in general! We didn't visit the museum as it was closed, but Karolis was able to impart important details pertaining to its historical significance. If you want an in-depth exploration of the old town's history, I'd highly recommend Karolis for his professionalism. Thank you!”

Private 8-hour Jewish heritage day trip from Vilnius to Kaunas: synagogue, ghetto sites, cemeteries, Ninth Fort museum, hotel pickup.

“We really liked the tour guide. She asked questions and adapted to our needs. We were hungry so she started the tour in Vilnius at a Beigel place in the Jewish ghetto so we could eat as she told us the history of the area. She was able to balance the sadder parts of the day with happier stops. She answered so many questions. We took this tour to trace my family heritage in both Vilnius and Kaunas. We were able to go to the Synagogue my family prayed at. We went to the mass grave sight my great aunts are buried in to say prayers for them. This tour…”
