The campaign is launched by the Ministry of Economy and Innovation and Lithuania Travel, the country’s national tourism development agency. One of the campaign goals is to showcase Lithuania as a fresh destination for city breaks.
“The campaign signifies an active cooperation between Lithuanian businesses and the government to sustain the tourism industry amidst the pandemic waves, as well as to give international tourists extra time to travel the country,” said Aušrinė Armonaitė, Minister of Economy and Innovation. “Lithuania, located right in the heart of Europe, is rich in unspoiled nature, comfort cuisine, and never-ending cultural life. Why not extend the trip for a while longer and indulge in a full-on Lithuanian experience?”
Given that Lithuania is compact in terms of size, the complimentary third-night stay provides a perfect opportunity for travelers to get a feeling of all three largest cities: Vilnius, the country’s vibrant capital known for its Baroque Old Town and lively food scene; Kaunas, Lithuania’s second-largest city characterized by Modernist architecture and street art; and Klaipėda, a laid-back port town located a mere stone throw away from the Curonian Spit—one of the country’s most celebrated nature sites.
An additional day in Lithuania also offers ample chances to live like a local. The season is perfect for mushroom hunting, hiking, cycling, and exploring the age-old traditions of Lithuanian sauna. Foodies will be happy to see authentic, seasonal cuisine dominating the menus of the country’s TOP 30 restaurants, while the local craft scene will spoil beer lovers.
