About
The Hill of Crosses, where people not only from Lithuania have put crosses for couple centuries, witnesses faithfulness and trust of a Christian community to Christ and his Cross. This is an expression of a spontaneous religiousness of the people, and is a symbol not of grief and death but of Faith, Love and Sacrifice. From here the Pope blessed all people of Lithuania and all of Christian Europe.

- ngeorgopoulos0 contributionsVery good tourVery well organized tour. I can only recommend this tour agency. Even the smallest detail in the program was explained by the tour guide / driver.Written 18 June 2024
- Debbie L0 contributionsGreat Day with Neringa ToursOur guide Arturis was excellent. We had a lovely day visiting the Dunes, Nida, Thomas Mann's house and the cormorants. He had local insights and a lot of knowledge to share. Neringa Tour's are the best.Written 16 June 2024
- Irene T0 contributionsThis tour is a MUST do in LithuaniaWe are so glad we did this tour as it was one of the coolest experiences we had in Lithuania. Arthur our guide was very friendly & knowledgable and we saw and learned so much. The Hill of Witches and Dead Dunes are not to be missed and the small towns, nature views & other sights were definitely worth it. Ačiu Arturas!Written 16 May 2024
- F7994SMjulieb0 contributionsBest excursion of our Baltic cruiseSeriously fantastic tour! Our guide went above and beyond to show us the sights and accommodate our schedule. There is some walking but nothing arduous, even for 40s and 50s-somethings in so-so shape. The van was spacious and comfortable for our group of four. Would definitely recommend!Written 2 July 2023
- davidfS4690MO0 contributionsGreat day in Nida!This tour was amazing! Such beautiful scenery and Arturas was very flexible with what our interests were and what we wanted to see and do. We even went to a nice place on the water for smoked fish and and good beer. He also catered to one of my children who likes to collect coins by stopping at his residence to find old Lithuanian coins he still has sitting around! Really nice to get a local guide who has a great perspective on the area. I would recommend this tour for anyone wanting to get a great introduction to the area.Written 1 July 2023
- kondrag0 contributionsA great day out on the Curonian SpitWe did the tour of the Curonian Spit with Artur, who grew up and lives on the Spit and is a wonderful guide. He picked us up at our hotel and was able to get to the Spit on the ferry right away because his residence gives him priority in the queue. We enjoyed our walk on the trail around Witches Hill and the background that Artur was able to provide around legends and stories around many of them. We climbed some amazing sand dunes, got as close as we could to the Kaliningrad border, had some delicious smoked fish and kvass to drink, and toured the Thomas Mann summer house. Artur dropped us off at the bus station in Klaipeda for our evening ride to Vilnius. It was a wonderful day Artur made everything enjoyable and very easy. Highly recommended!Written 15 May 2023
- TihonPassingthru0 contributionsMust see tourOur tour guy is Alex he is excellent, very informative, good driver. My husband has issue with walkinh uphill Alex helped him finishing the trip. Our group of 7 enjoyed the tour (5-6 hr), cheaper than cruise excursion, more places to see.Written 14 August 2022
- BjuergenHH0 contributionsWonderful experienceWe enjoyed the tour very much. Alius, our tour guide, was very friendly and very knowledgeable, gave us a lot of information about history, culture, geology and even everyday life in Lithuania. He took us to many interesting places to show us the beautiful nature and charming villages. We were picked up on time at our hotel and had the opportunity to choose how to spend the time. This tour comes with our highest recommendation! Neringa tours and Alius, thank you so much for a truly magical day.Written 21 June 2022
- Compass7803890 contributionsAwesome!This is the second time you've asked for my review. It remains outstanding. Arturos is a second generation native in his family's tour business: vans, taxis, boat This is THE go-to guide for the unbelievable UNESCO WORKD HERITAGE site of Curonian Spit.Written 16 September 2019
- jonnns0 contributionsBest Taxi in NdaI have been in Nida couple times, and i have been using this company. Good service ven it is early morning they always will answer and pick up you where ever you will be.Written 30 June 2019
- Giedrius P0 contributionsUnforgettable experienceThank You Alius for all you did to our family. You made our visit to Neringa unforgettable. Definitely I will recommend to all friends. Airlines lost our luggage with all our clothes, but Alius was made this bad experience as small as possible. Car was clean and tidy. Long story shorty everything was above our expectations! Keep it going! Best luck to You!Written 23 January 2019
- Leather_t0 contributionsKlaipeda to Kaliningrad, Kaliningrad to VilniusWe needed to get from Klaipeda to Kaliningrad for our world cup game. The chap met us at the train station and sped us through in no time. Off the cuff I rang him the next day to see if he would pick us up and take us to Vilnius the next day. He turned up and spent about atleast 7 hours driving us through the border and onto Vilnius. Our driver was such a brilliant man, he laughed, joked and joined in with our banter on both trips. He stopped and pointed out lots of interesting stuff on the way to Kaliningrad, at one point stopping to show us wild boarrs with their babies next to and crossing the road. He also stopped at a crossroads and pointed out the sky, one side was night and the other was day, unbelievable. If i am ever over there in the future i would have no hesitation in using them again. Fantastic driver, fantastic company, a trip & someone ill never forget. Brilliant!!!Written 15 January 2019
- JMK-Pittsburgh0 contributionsExcellent Option for Seeing the SpitMy wife and I needed to travel from Klaipeda to Kaliningrad and were also interested in seeing the Russian side of the Curonian Spit. Neringa Tours worked out great for us. They picked us up at our hotel in Klaipeda, made several stops that we had requested and dropped us off at our hotel in Kaliningrad. The driver spoke great English as well as Russian, and was very helpful at the border crossing. Our favorite stop was at the bird banding station - very interesting and educational. Neringa Tours was very easy to work with. They respond quickly to emails and will customize any sort of trip you want. If you're looking for transportation and/or a tour of the Spit I highly recommend Neringa.Written 15 January 2019
