Vilnius: From ‘90 to now

Overview of the tour in Vilnius

Vilnius: From ‘90 to now, the free walking tour covers contemporary Vilnius, its society, and the cultural shifts we are facing. In the Hales market, we'll investigate the transition from a planned economy to capitalism. We'll reflect on the challenges and opportunities this shift has brought. As we continue the journey through unpolished Kaunas Street, we'll delve into the transformations that have shaped both the Stotis district community and Lithuanian society at large. In addition, we'll examine the impact of migration on our understanding of Lithuanian identity.

In this tour, we won't shy away from the tough stuff either. While visiting the Open Gallery, full of thought-provoking street art, we'll tackle modern issues like social exclusion, poverty, and alcoholism. Don't miss the opportunity to meet our local guides who have grown up in independent Lithuania. Each of us comes from a different background and has faced these cultural and societal shifts differently. Engage in discussions with us and other travelers about the challenges and opportunities communities face today!

Wear comfortable shoes and bring a camera for some unexpected shots!
