Lithuania’s capital is one of Europe’s most exciting up-and-coming destinations, and one of few cities in the EU that allows hot air balloons to soar directly above it. Vilnius’ UNESCO-protected Old Town is drawing more and more tourists each year, who are interested in the city’s historical sites as well as its contemporary arts and food scenes.

Modern and compact, Vilnius offers a bit of everything, including picturesque cobblestone streets, cozy shops and cafes, a wide variety of museums, and little gems like the hip and quirky independent republic of Užupis. There are also a few hills in and around the Old Town, which provide exceptional panoramic views of the city. However, for those looking for even more impressive views, we offer hot air balloon rides directly over the city.

The Municipality of Vilnius, together with the city’s agency Go Vilnius dedicated to tourism and business development, support and promote hot air ballooning in Lithuania’s capital. It’s an activity that’s gaining more popularity with locals and guests in the city, who are constantly looking for authentic experiences and new perspectives. Without a doubt, every balloon ride in Vilnius is unique and breath-taking.
