This was a great way to get out of Vilnius and see some of the rest of Lithuania. Once we got there, it was very crowded, but our guide handled everything well. Gave an informative history of the castle and its leaders as well as free time to do our own roaming. Very enjoyable..

Heavily restored castle - most of it is new. But very picturesque. The location is lovely on the lake. Those are the main reasons to go. Our tour guide was lovely, she gave us lots of facts, information and data - more than we could possibly digest. She was very helpful. The exhibits were mildly interesting and a mix of the real thing and reproduction. But overall the inside of the castle was less interesting than the view and the surrounding countryside

we had Yelena as our guide for the tour, she was very knowledgeable and friendly. You will at the end of the tour, have a good level of insight into the Lithuanian history and the many ethnicities. Do not forget to taste Trakai’s pastries before you leave the town.
