Lithuania: Cities to Coast by Public Transport
Trains and buses connect Vilnius, Trakai, Kaunas, and Nida, with no car rental required.
Designed for first-time visitors who prefer not to drive. Stay two nights in Vilnius with a day trip to Trakai, head to Kaunas to see the Old Town and the Ninth Fort, then take a bus to Klaipėda and cross the water to spend two nights in Nida. Intercity trains and buses are reliable, but reaching the Hill of Crosses by public transport is time-consuming, so it is skipped here to allow for more relaxed time on the coast.
Buses on the Curonian Spit run frequently in summer but are limited in the low season, when museums also have shorter hours.
