Happiness Promise
There are hundreds of thousands of guides and tour operators around the world. Figuring out who to trust is stressful and hard.
That’s why we started 10Adventures Tours, we’re here to make it easy to find a great guide or tour operator. We handpick the best local guides and tour operators for 10Adventures, working to ensure you have great guides and a great trip.
We know it sucks to show up in a different country and find out the tents are junk, the guide incompetent or the route different from what we thought we were getting.
We want to give our users peace of mind that you’ll have a great trip and offer a guarantee that we will work with you to make it right.
How does this work?
Well, if you feel that something about your trip didn’t’ meet your expectations, let us know. We will then work to gather the details and figure out where things went wrong. If something indeed wasn’t as described, or went wrong with your trip, and the problem was within the control of either oursleves, the guide or the tour company, we will then work out a refund with you that’s proportional to the scale of the problem.
Obviously the best way to make a great trip is to tell your local guide or tour operator and give them the chance to fix the solution while you are on your trip. Most things can be solved by telling your guide when the issue develops. If that doesn’t solve it, then email us right away. Please don’t wait to voice your concerns until the trip is over, as it’s much harder to solve issues after the fact.
We work hard to make sure you have a great trip. If something isn’t right, please email hello@10adventures.co and we will get to work right away.

Take the first step towards a private travel experience, customized just for you.
About this tour:
Lithuania has more to discover than most people know, and the 10-Day Walking Tour of Lithuania allows you either the freedom of a self-guided tour or the structure of a guided tour to see it for yourself. This tour takes you from the historic capital of Vilnius to the Baltic Sea.
Explore medieval castles and fortresses, sip coffee in charming cafes, walk the streets of quaint fishing towns, and dip your feet in the welcoming Baltic Sea- all in one tour! This 10-day experience is a snapshot of life in many corners of Lithuania, and you just might not want to leave at the end. Come discover the 10-Day Walking Tour of Lithuania!
Once you arrive in Vilnius, you’ll be taken to your hotel to settle in. Take a walk around the old town, or enjoy a welcome drink with your guide if you chose the guided tour.
Good morning! After breakfast, head out to explore a regional park in Vilnius. You’ll ride the trail to Pavilniai Regional Park, a protected area that includes a 65m rock formation in the river valley. Rock formations 20,000 years old can be seen here on an easy hike.
Start the day with a short train ride to the cozy medieval town of Trakai, surrounded by picturesque lakes and forests. Trakai is the historical capital of Lithuania and its beauty is renowned the country over.
See the Trakai Castle, walk the lakeshores, and try one of the famous kibinai pastries in town. Then, embark on one of two hikes: a shorter walk around Trakai town, or a longer journey to Varnikai Reserve, full of forests and meadows.
Head west today towards Klaipeda, getting a glimpse into rural Lithuanian life on the train ride. Once you arrive, you can enjoy a welcome drink and some time to unwind.
Begin your adventures today with a ferry ride to Smiltyne, where you’ll walk a loop around the northernmost part of the Curonian Spit. Pass fishermen’s shops, farmsteads, and old shipping ports. You can stop into the sea museum or aquarium if you’d like before crossing over to the lagoon side of the spit.
After breakfast, drive to Juodkrante for another hiking day. You’ll walk around Amber Bay, learning about the local flora and fauna and seeing the craftsmanship of local artists in the weathervane gallery.
Walk through a glorious old forest, cresting the Hill of Witches to learn about the folklore of this place. Watch for the cormorant colony here- it’s the largest in Europe! In the evening, you can relax at the local beach.
This morning, you’ll be taken to the Grey Dunes, a picturesque trail in the Nagliai Nature Reserve. Hike south along the Curonian lagoon to Preila, where you can eat a picnic lunch under a gorgeous lighthouse.
Today you’ll walk from Preila to Nida, visiting Vecekrugas, the highest dune in the Curonian spit, for panoramic views. There are lots of other hills you can hike up for views along the way if you’d like to.
When you arrive in Nida, check out the civil airfield, where you can walk on the runway.
For your final walking day, you’ll enjoy the beauty of Nida at a leisurely pace. Visit the town centre, the Parnidis dune, and the stunning lighthouse. When you’re done walking, you’ll be able to lay back by the Baltic Sea and soak up some sun.
Getting up off the sand in Nida is going to be hard, but it’s your final day of the tour. You can opt for a transfer back to Vilnius or Klaipeda, or book some additional days here if you’d like more time.
