We had an epic time road tripping through the Baltic capitals of Vilnius, Riga, and Tallinn. Our week long Baltic road trip includes our favorite sights in each of the three Baltic countries of Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia. We also give our recommendations for must try Baltic food.
After making our way from Poland, we entered our first Baltic country Lithuania to explore its capital of Vilnius. The Old Town of Vilnius is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and home to our first must see sight, Cathedral Square. We also recommend visiting Literary Street, and the Republic of Užupis. Our recommendations for Lithuanian cuisine are Leičiai for Vilnius mead and local beer, and Loky's for Lithuanian beetroot soup and boiled potato zeppelins.

After leaving Lithuania, the next Baltic country on our road trip was Latvia. It was only a 3 1/2 hour drive from Vilnius to the Latvian capital of Riga. Our first must see sight in Riga is the House of the Blackheads. We also recommend seeing the Cat House, and visiting the Black Magic Bar to try Riga Black Balsam. For Latvian cuisine, our recommendation is Key to Riga. We recommend trying the Latvian national dish (grey peas with bacon) with a local beer.

The northernmost and final Baltic state we visited was Estonia. It’s about a 4 hour drive from Riga, Latvia to Estonia’s Capital of Tallinn. Our first must see sight in Tallinn, Estonia is Toompea Hill in the Old Town. Toompea Hill is home to Toompea Castle and Estonia’s parliament building. We also recommend the Danish King’s Garden where you can see the well-preserved medieval wall. Finally, visit the hipster area of Kalamaja. To experience medieval dining in Tallinn, we recommend the Third Dragon and Olde Hansa.
