From Klaipeda: Baltic Gold – Amber and Curonian Spit – Samogitia, Lithuania

EXPERIENCE

Discover the Curonian Spit, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, on a guided day trip from Klaip?da. Climb the Parnidis Dune, visit the New Mizgiriai Amber Museum, and explore the Old Town of Klaip?da.

Start your day trip with a visit to the Curonian Spit, a 98-kilometer-long sandy peninsula that separates the Baltic Sea and the Curonian Lagoon. Discover the unique landscape created by wind and sea and protected by people. Be greeted by the wonderful sights of nature that leave no one indifferent.

Continue to the township of Nida, which boasts a special aura. Climb up to the famous Parnidis Dune, which reaches over 50 meters. Be enchanted by the view that opens from the top and fall in love with this place.

Continue to the New Mizgiriai Amber Museum. In the museum, amber is presented in an artistic manner and scientific knowledge about it is presented through interactive tools. Watch a 3D film about the Amber Forest, which grew about 40-50 million years ago.

The main concept of the museum is a forest of amber trees and a river. The flowing river, being the main direction of the museum’s concept, represents the amber road from nature to culture. The uniqueness of the exhibition is granted by a rich collection of rare amber and works of art, which is complemented by a virtual story about the formation of amber.

The finish point of the tour will be in Klaip?da. The beautiful and neat Klaip?da Old Town welcomes visitors to the city with many impressive sculptures, each of them ‘tells’ its own story, an exceptional style of architecture, and an engaging history of the city, that you will hear from your guide.
