“Excellent Tour”
Monika was an excellent guide - very knowledgeable about all of the topics on the tour as well as related topics asked by many of us in the group. Her explanations were concise and clear and she was very easygoing and personable. I thoroughly enjoyed the tour and learned a lot about Lithuania independence history and the impacts the various ruling entities had on Kaunas building architecture. Monika also showed us many beautiful examples of the various architectural styles.
