About Vilnius for Solo Travelers
Europe's most underrated baroque capital — Vilnius's extraordinary old town, self-proclaimed Republic of Užupis, and KGB basement museum make it one of Eastern Europe's most compelling and affordable solo discoveries.
Solo Travel Tips· Solo Friendly
Vilnius is one of Europe's most underrated solo destinations — the baroque old town (UNESCO) is extraordinarily beautiful, the Užupis artistic republic (its own "constitution" posted in 23 languages) is a delightful solo discovery, and the Museum of Occupations and Freedom Fights in the KGB former headquarters is one of the most powerful museum experiences in Eastern Europe. Very affordable and very welcoming.

Trakai Castle Day Trip
Nature
The most picturesque castle in Eastern Europe — a 14th-century red-brick island fortress in the middle of Lake Galvė, 28km from Vilnius. The train journey through Lithuanian forests, the kayaking on the lake, and the Karaim stuffed pastries (kibinai) from the lakeside restaurants make this the essential Vilnius day trip.
