Day 3: Sigurdah → Vilnius
After breakfast, depart from the hotel for Bergen, a port city on the west coast. The city is situated on a turquoise bay, directly connected to the Atlantic Ocean, making it a scenic harbor city. The Fløy Cableway in eastern Bergen can take you to the summit of Fløyen Mountain (320 meters above sea level) in five to eight minutes, providing a thrilling experience. Afterwards, visit the precious ruins of Nordic wooden architecture in the Old Town of Bryggen, and finally, stop at the bustling Seaside Fish Market built along the bay.

Vilnius Cathedral - Vilnius Cathedral sits at the foot of Gediminas Hill in a spacious cathedral square, its 57-meter-high bell tower occupying a prominent position.

The St. Casimir Chapel inside is in the Baroque style and contains frescoes depicting the life of this Lithuanian saint and his silver coffin.
Day 4: Vilnius → Trakai → Kaunas
After breakfast, drive to Trakai, the former capital of Lithuania, home to Trakai Castle, the only castle in Eastern Europe built on an island.

After lunch, travel to Kaunas, Lithuania's second-largest city, to explore the city and visit Kaunas Castle and the Cathedral of the Resurrection. Overnight in a hotel in or around Kaunas.
【Trakai Castle】 - The most famous attraction in the small Lithuanian town of Trakai. Built in 1409, it is the only castle on water in the Baltic region. Constructed of orange-red bricks, it is surrounded by conical-topped watchtowers in the style of medieval knights, and is also surrounded by a moat. The castle, standing on the water at sunset, presents a dreamlike beauty.

Afterwards, proceed to Riga, the capital of Latvia, for overnight accommodation.
【Hill of Crosses】 - Lithuania's most breathtaking and awe-inspiring sight is the Hill of Crosses (Siauliai Hill of Crosses), two camel-hump-like hills covered with thousands of crosses.

People have been placing crosses here since the 14th century, some for prayer, others for remembrance.
