Hi, I’m Steve, a travel reviewer from Scotland. Join me on my adventures as I discover my own country, often visiting places for the first time, so hopefully it's as much of an eye-opener for you as it is for me! Don't expect expert opinion, just a very honest journey of discovery. Sometimes featuring my intrepid sidekick Alicja, sometimes featuring adventures beyond the borders of Scotland. Enjoy!

I visited Vilnius last summer. I expected nothing - and fell in love with the city. It felt so calm and yet alive, wasn't overrun by tourists but still super guest friendly. Unfortunately I only had two days there but I will certainly get back soon since the city found its way into my heart.
The city's tourism board created the motto "Sorry if the Vilnius you see beats the Vilnius you imagined" - and it is so damn fitting.

Oh my, you got to Vinius on serious powerful overcast day! What a dreadful weather.
The brutalist Sports Palace will be completely renovated. During last 20 years couple of new modern Sports Arenas were build so the brutalist palace won't be a sport venue but an Exhibition Palace. It also stands on old Jewish cemetery, which Soviets buried under concrete and tarmac. It will be opened again as a memorial.
The old trolley buses actually - surprisingly - not Soviet made! (as everyone thinks). They are Škoda! Not many of them left and this is last year we see them. 70% of trolleys already brand new, more on the way before 2024. Trolley buses are very specific vehicle, it is hard to replace them because there aren't too many producers. That is why they keep portion of them still running. No one hates them (even locals).
P. S. You missed 95% of the main touristy sightseeings. No one who has one day in here goes to see Sport Palace, concrete apartment blocks or palace of weddings😁 Vilnius has Unesco Heritage Old Town which happens to be the largest in Eastern Europe. Also Vilnius is the greenest capital of Europe (officially) - three quaters of city's 401 sq km area are forests and parks. Only 100 sq km is build up.

Baltics need to be visited during Summer time :) Towns look different and vibrant, green lakes and nature, sandy seashores :)

Thank you, Steve. Such a nice video about my home town. You even got my performance at the 700 anniversary show (i'm the guy with the wolf mask) :)
Come back in May or the end of August, beginning of September - these are the best months to visit Vilnius. Cheers.

I'm ashamed to say that before this video I knew nothing about Vilnius.
After your excellent commentary and sense of adventure, I'm now rather taken with the place!.

I was in Vilnius a few months ago. The museum was so moving. You went in at the side, but on the front of the building, the names of partisans who died in that building are carved on the stones.

So uplifting to see a litter free place. I hope that catches on in the UK.

I grew up in Cumbernauld and now live in east Berlin. The concrete here makes me feel quite at home 😊 Thanks for the Vilnius tips!

Vilnius! Such a lovely city, filled with lovely people and a tragic history that they have overcome without forgetting. I hope to return one day!💛💚♥

Vilnius is more fun in spring and summer. Had the pleasure of being guided by some Lithuanians. They were lovely. They even took us to Grūtas Park where Bald and Bankrupt would have loads of fun.

Thank you very much for this informative video. We are going to Vilnius next week.
Last year we visited Riga and next year we hope to visit Tallin.
Greetings from Denmark.

Even though I'm not a fan of Brutalism, that concert and sports hall had a kind of beauty and it would be a real shame if it was pulled down. Vilnius looked terrific and I'm so glad you took us along.

I love this. Just jumping on a bus having a wander. Choosing not to film in the Museum of Occupations and Freedom Fights was very respectful. Also…trolley buses are very cool!

I'm sure Steve books his trips by looking at the weather, if he finds somewhere thats as cold, wet, snowy and Grey as Scotland, he books his ticket.
