David and Camilla Taylor's slow bicycle ride through the Baltic lands

In mid July 2008 my wife Camilla and I did a tour through Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia by bike. We were not pressed for time and took the opportunity to properly appreciate the surroundings. We spent most nights in guesthouse that we prebooked by email but in some places we had been unable to make reservations so we took a two man tent and sleeping bag with us just in case. As it turned out we were able to find a comfortable bed and a hot shower on every night of our holiday.

We started our tour by air from Western Australia and then spent the first ten days with Rotel driving from Munich across Poland and around Lithuania. Follow the trip using our interactive maps.
