- We unexpectedly arrive two days early into Vilnius, Lithuania (our bad - we got the visa specifics wrong for Belarus!). As a result we had an extended stay in this quaint and quirky little country, in this video you’ll see the sights of Vilnius as we take the walking tour around the city and over to the even quirkier Uzupis, where it is mandatory to smile! :)
We just so happened to be in the capital city centre on Lithuanian Independence day, so here you’ll see the way this proud country celebrated it’s 30 years of freedom! We also take a look around the harrowing Holocaust Exposition and take in views over the city from the revolving panoramic TV tower before finally finding out what all the hype is about over Georgian food! Delicious!
Travel vlog 7 | Vilnius, Lithuania | Country #2 | Filmed March 2020 (prior to isolation).
TKT tip: If you’re visiting Vilnius for just a few days, be sure to join one of the FREE walking tours. They’re run by locals who have a lot of interesting knowledge about the city and they take place everyday at midday and 2pm from Vilnius Town Hall :)

A British couple from just outside London, England. We got married in 2018 and decided instead of a honeymoon we’d travel the world together for a year. We saved money and travel points, quit our jobs, rented our house out and boarded a one way flight. We started this RUclips channel to share our experiences with friends, family and anyone who plans to travel to the places we’re visiting. We leave TKT tips/facts on all our vlogs and blogs to give information that we wish we’d had before visiting. We hope you find our content useful :)

Thanks so much for watching you lovely people!😊
If you liked the video please give it a thumbs up 👍🏼
I just love the story behind their celebration of independence day, it's these cultural and historical understandings that make travel more than just a pretty picture for insta. 🧡
I am Lithuanian and i live in Vilnius. You know when you live in here for a long time you starting to forget the things you have. I really loved your video, because it shows my city to me from the fresh perspective. And at that moment i feel so warm in my hearth and excited that i am here :) Thank you !
That’s so lovely to hear. We often all forget to see the beauty we have in our own home country. We loved Lithuania and really hope to see it in summertime one day.
Guys, you came to Lithuania in the worst time possible- not even a winter, just cold and raining + no Christmas feeling + coronarivurs, streets were already half empty. But I like you because you can find positives even in such conditions. If you don't mind just one remark - I think you wanted to go to holocaust + soviet deportation museum, the one where Chernobyl TV series were filmed. 10:10 This is not the one.
Thanks for the comments. We had a great time, it only rained twice in 4 days! Luckily everything was still open when we were there. We didn’t really mind which museum, we were just wandering around and decided to go there last minute. It was great😊
Great video! I've seen so many people traveling to Lithuania (before lock down) and it looks like such a nice place. Thanks for showing us all around :)
The Average Tourist it is such a cute and welcoming country! We loved it☺️
Wow, what an amazing celebration to be a part of! Such a cool moment of getting to carry the flag like that. Definitely worth braving the rain for!
Thank you, it was really amazing seeing how happy and proud everyone was😊
IMO, Vilnius is the loveliest capital city of the three Baltic states. In my personal chart it ranks second after Berlin as the best places to be in Europe (the third being Barcelona).
P.S.
Note to haters: I'm from Estonia and I love Tallinn and I have been to many nice places on this planet, so just shut up.
Wow, makes us really want to check Berlin out! ☺️
You are very beautiful, lovely and positive travelers :) Thanks for the video about my city :) The lady is smiling very nicely :)
Thank you, your city is so beautiful! We love it and can’t wait to visit again one day☺️
How neat to be there on Independence Day and get to carry the flag! I love when you find great places on accident, that restaurant looked good.
Explorcation it was really special to see such a celebration! We loved the food in Soma and everywhere we went in Vilnius, so good!
The chocolate restaurant looked like a dream! 😍
We love a chocolate restaurant😍
wow Lithuania wasn't really on our radar before - but it now is! Awesome video you guys!
Hangry Abroad you should definitely put it on your list of countries to visit! 😊
I was very delighted to watch this video. I visited Vilnius 2 years ago and liked this city very much. To my opinion it would better to visit Vilnius in the summer because there are a lot of beautiful parks. And, in addition, very tasty beer.
Boris Epshtein as we strolled around the parks in Vilnius, we said exactly that. Now we have just spent the whole summer in the Baltics and wow it is beautiful! 😊
This video really makes us miss Europe and cute historical streets with full of music and art! Agh when is it not raining in Europe randomly? Hahaha, at least you made the best out of it!
Travel Interesante so much rain during the parade!
Great video of my homeland! Greetings from New York!
Thanks Paulius - we loved Lithuania & can't wait to go back to see everything when its all open :) Stay healthy in NYC.
You both have the best smiles!
Thank you! ☺
Awesome video guys, really made me miss Europe. The Boom Burgers looked absolutely delicious 🤤 The view from the TV tower is amazing, reminds me a bit of the view from the UFO tower in Bratislava...we also saw an amazing sunset from there.
Thank you 😊 We definitely need to visit Bratislava!
Nice video,,its remind me a year ago.i have been there for a month.such a beautiful city i will be miss it and willing to be back again.😘😘
It is a beautiful city! 😊
Greatings from Lithuania 🇱🇹👍✌️
👋🏼☺️
Lovely Vid I live in Ireland and want to come back to Lithuania just saying I was at that day in the independence day 🤯
Xuodeツ wow crazy to think we were all there and then just a few days later everything locked down! 😮
Video deserves a like minimum for location names on screen. Informative, well done. And it deserves a second like for TV tower. I'm just watching all tourist videos and this is first from 50 or so, that had it.
Thank you so much for such kind words. We loved our visit to the tv tower, it was great (despite the rain😂)
Great video guys! Seems I missed a lot during my day visit to Vilnius. And you guys are having more fun now than going to Belarus directly.
Hello Svenywhere 👋🏼 a day is never enough for a place like Vilnius 😊
I’ll be visiting Vilnius on July 26, I’m excited 😆
Enjoy!
Excellent video. Glad you enjoyed it. I live in Australia but miss my country very much.
Are you from Lithuania? We think it’s such a sweet little country!
Tide Knot Travellers I was born and lived in Lithuania, but now I live in Sydney Australia
you both are so pretty, and what's important- your eyes are full of wisdom, especially when you said about Independence. My grandparents lost freedom, lost their land and house, my father was brought to Siberia prison camp twice, was tortured there by the Russians. My friend was killed in Vilnius by Russians in 1991, other friend's dad was overridden by the Russian tank. I feel my freedom, and I am so thankful to you, to see your eyes with full of wisdom about that. Good luck.
Thank you for your kind words and wow it is so sad to hear of such things happening and as recently as 1991, we hope by spreading awareness we can help prevent this history from ever repeating✌🏼
@@TideKnotTravellers American and British troops are the best prevention. I am so glad to see NATO warriors on our soil.
Looking great guys. That rotating view from the 19th floor looked amazing #drinkswithaview
We did that for you, we know you love dinner & drinks with a view :)
Nice video😊👍 Congratulations!
Thank you 😊
Lovely Vilnius. Flew there on Monday 7th September from London city .unbelievably when I got to Vilnius border control, they would not let me past. The rules of entry had changed at midnight Sunday, meaning you had to prove you had had a negative COVID test from midnight Sunday. Literally 10 hours before. Forced to buy a ticket home that day and wasted £450 on a nice room in raddison for 4 nights. Was meeting my friend for dinner that night and had planned to go to the hill of crosses on the Tuesday. Was not happy as the Lithuanians on my flight who live in the uk were allowed in .I was the only one made to fly straight back 🤔😫. .A total of over £700 wasted. I offered to stay in the hotel till I had had a COVID test, but the lady from border control seemed to be on a power trip. Karma coming I told her....😛. Jobsworth.
Oh wow! What a massive pain for you. Hope travel insurance has you covered on that😕 we’ve heard crazy stories of rules changing whilst people are in the air on flights, landing and being put back on flights home, crazy!
👍
Super
Welcome again at summer time ;)
We definitely will 😊
Thank you to share , I really enjoyed 😃 best wishes from Jordan
Thank you so much for watching, we hope to visit Jordan soon 🇯🇴
Your welcome anytime , this is my phone number +962788547663
Wow!! You guys seem so lovely! Want to be your friend 😁 Realy good reporting skills, quality content!!
Thank you so much! That’s really lovely to hear😊 welcome to our world travel adventures, thank you for joining our journey! ☺️
Vilnius looks amazing indeed!! Greetings from Greece!
It’s a cool little country!
Booked a flight to Vilnius in January what would you recommend to do and see for a young travel couple 😊
Take the walking tour that we did in this video, best way to figure out the best kind of places you like! It’s a lovely little city. If you like castles, we highly recommend visiting just outside Vilnius and going here too: ruclips.net/video/bOe0PUWqNz4/видео.html
Lovely video! Just one correction: at 8:21- this is the flag of free Tibet, not Užupis. :')
Ah thank you! Our mistake 🤭😊
Move Video for Lithuania pls ❤️
Faisal ruclips.net/video/z9gFY91y-Zw/видео.html here’s another from Lithuania 😊
Just wondered, why would you go to Lithuania and try Georgian food???
😄 we ate all sorts of Lithuanian food (and other foods) too. Whilst we were there people kept saying how good the Georgian food is in the restaurants in Vilnius, so we gave it a go, definitely comfort food after a day out in the rain😊 now we want to visit Georgia too😋
Hi, with what camera you are filming?
We filmed most of this video with a Go Pro Hero8
Iam from lithuania!!! labas- hello
Labas 👋🏼
I live in Šiauliai district.
Eimantas Povilaitis ah great is that far from Vilnius centre?
9:02 Wait, what? 😲
After visiting Moscow did Vilnius seem smaller and modest?
Yes it felt so quaint and had an instant European feel landing in Vilnius after being in Russia
@@TideKnotTravellers here in Moscow I miss sometimes this European feel... We are half Europeans and half Asians.
Belarus thas ir :D
Hi.. iam from indonesian country
Hi Azis we hope to make it to your country one day in the near future 😊
Имеете литовские корни ???
Beautiful couple, fantastic smiles!
Lithuania is beautiful. It was great when it was in USSR, now once it became independent.. ppl left the country, that so called "independence" it was good only for the rich ppl..
All people regret that they became "independent" because there were so many factories that were built when they were in USSR, farms.. and now all collapsed, ruined.... So sad..
Just ignore this Russian comment troll. Great video guys!
Russian troll. Long live a free and Catholic Lithuania 🇱🇹. Love from England. My dad was Lithuanian. I have been many times and hope to go back soon. A beautiful country and people. 🇱🇹🇱🇹🇱🇹🇱🇹Xxx
I am a bit confused - Lithuania celebrates the Independence day. What were they depended on?
It was occupied by soviet russia for many years, only regained independence in 1990
@@papyrus9761 Really?! Occupied?! Baltic countries were prospering at Soviet times! Hm... that's weird.... I wanna the same occupation :)))
@@redyurt5367 Do you? would you like to lose your freedom, your language, get deported to siberia? Or just killed because you want freedom? Which one is your favorite?
