Village Life in Lithuania (Tour C)
KLAIPEDA, LITHUANIA
Lapiai village of 300 inhabitants is just 30 kilometres (18½ miles) to the east of Klaipeda, in a beautiful valley. We will drive through the main street of the village and see the houses and apartments, which were built during Soviet times to house the workers of the collective farm.

The Best of Neringa (Tour A)
KLAIPEDA, LITHUANIA
Departing from the pier, we shall have a 20 minute drive to the ferry for our trip across the lagoon to the Curonian Spit, which is also known as Neringa. The legend says that the giant Neringa gathered an apron full of sand and poured it into the sea forming a long stretch of land, which divided the sea from the lagoon and thus made the fishermen safer.
