What You Will Do

The Hill of Crosses in Lithuania is a spectacular and unique site like no other! It is a site of pilgrimage dating back to 1830ties when people started to place crosses here to pray for their loved ones they've lost in the battles (Lithuanian - Polish commonwealth uprising against Russian Empire). In Soviet times this place served as a peaceful protest action against Soviet regime as they tried to destroy the place many times while locals kept coming back and placing more crosses all the time. The Hill of Crosses was visited by Pope John Paul II back in 1993 and since then this place has become very popular - not only between locals but also tourists from all over the world! You're welcome to be a part of this unique growing site by leaving a cross on the hill. You can purchase the cross on the site, bring it with you from your home country or even make one yourself!

This is perfect if you'd like to visit the Hill of Crosses (in Lithuania) from Riga with no fuss and planning! We'll pick you up from any central address in Riga. The trip to the Hill of Crosses takes about 1h 50minutes (each way). There the driver will give you free time to enjoy the place by yourselves until you're ready to go back to Riga. This is not a guided trip, rather than a transportation with English speaking driver. A safe, quick and easy way to get to the desired destination and back to your hotel! The pick up time can be arranged depending on your needs. The total duration of the trip depends on how much time you'll need at the Hill. Count ~3h 40m driving time (back and forth, all together) + as much time you'll need at the Hill of Crosses.
