Overview

Jim's tour to Trakai & Hill of Angels is a bus tour crafted by myself, Jim, after years as a hobby historian and adventurer.

During the trip I take you on a geological, cultural and musical journey of Lithuania, covering the Teutonic Knights, a union with Poland, basketball, the Soviet Union and much more! I want you to understand the key events and periods that have shaped the modern identity of Lithuania, the beloved country I now call home with my wife and son.

Whilst in Trakai (2.5-3 hrs) there is an optional restaurant visit with me to sample some Lithuanian classics, but also free time for water activities, exploring the castle (10€) and visiting shops.

On the return journey we will briefly stop by the Hill of Angels, built in 2009 as a site for promoting devotion and spirituality and to celebrate the 1000-year anniversary of Lithuania.

Looking forward to hosting you.

  • We will begin the tour driving through parts of the old town of Vilnius and explaining the rich history of the founding of the city and how that relates to the path of the nation of Lithuania and primarily the influences of religion and connection to Europe. (pass by)
  • Trakai
    We will take a stop at Trakai town, with free time for guests to explore the town and lakeside, potentially to enjoy trying the famous kibinai and entering the island castle at an extra cost of 10€.
  • We will stop by the hill of Angels with over 40 wooden angels and crosses originally created in 2009 to commemorate two important milestones: Lithuania’s 1000th anniversary and the 600th anniversary of the Visitation of the Blessed Virgin Mary Basilica in Trakai. Here we will enjoy panoramic views of Galvė Lake, Trakai Castle, the Basilica, and surrounding lakes—interestingly, from above the arrangement of local lakes resembles a large angel figure.
