Christmas lights, stories and smell of hot chocolate. What could be better? Maybe taking a stroll along the narrow streets of Vilnius Old Town while listening about Lithuanian Christmas traditions? 

You’ll learn about the origins of Christmas, discover how our ancestors celebrated it centuries ago, and hear intriguing tales of how Lithuanians kept the spirit alive during the Soviet era. We’ll talk about modern Lithuanian traditions, explore where the custom of decorating for Christmas comes from, and cover some stories about Santa Claus. To make it even more special, you’ll be introduced to a bit of Lithuanian Christmas Eve magic — a fun and mystical part of our culture that still lives on today.

So what are you waiting for? Grab your Christmas sweater (yes that crazy one with a deer) and join our jolly guide to uncover the famous legends, unknown facts and funny stories about our beloved city in 2.5 hour walking tour!

We meet in front of the Town Hall building, next to the stairs. The guide will have something yellow - a name tag, sign, umbrella or bag.
