An excellent day trip. Mindaugas picked us up on time and started our tour. We had a walking tour first then continued looking at the sights. We had lunch on the roof top of a restaurant with fantastic views. We found Mindaugas a professional and excellent guide. Well worth doing.

My experience was terrible. Buses are all super old and broke. Doesn’t have audio at all, so you pass by places and don’t even know what you’re seeing. Bus drivers are not even a little bit polite, doesn’t use microfone to inform stuff and I even had the “unluck” of waiting to hop on and the bus driver just passed by me, making me wait for another 45 minutes for the next bus. Really a waste of money.
