Kaunas a city caught between nations
Hi good tour are greater cities to look at but tour was good and interesting. Definitely worth doing if you have time. A pity city currently a construction site What I really got out of it was how kaunas was a city caught between nations. Peace and it prospers through trade. War and it becomes a potential battle field. Really liked anadote about worlds longest bridge taking 10 days to cross. To find out more take the tour.
Excellent, entertaining and informative
Karolis was a very good guide. Despite the rain he kept us interested and clearly knows his stuff. Private tour for four, would thoroughly reccomend . Thanks Karolis
