Lithuanian airports present three directions from Vilnius and three directions from Kaunas, which will be perfect for everyone planning a memorable Easter vacation, and not only them.
From Vilnius – to assemble Lego
Danish city Billund is the second most popular tourist attraction after the country’s capital, Copenhagen. The secret of Billund’s success is the Legoland amusement park. Therefore, if there is more than one Lego constructor in the family home, Lithuanian airports recommend looking into flight tickets to the birthplace of the famous bricks.
More than 60 million bricks were used in the construction of the colorful amusement park – Legoland. There are plenty of fun activities for people of all ages, from rides and performances by children’s favorite characters to great restaurants where parents can explore Danish food culture. It is true that it is worth getting tickets to the park in advance, because the price when buying online is lower than when buying at the entrance to the park.
Aquadome water park also awaits guests in Billund, where time just flies and the fun never ends.

Get to know Mediterranean civilizations
Those who want more sun and warmth should spend the first days of April in Greece, on the island of Crete. It is located on the coast of the Aegean Sea Heraklion in the spring it will not be besieged by tourists and is much quieter than in the height of the season, so it is a great place and time for a family vacation. Easily accessible sunny beaches and a wealth of historical sites await here, as civilization has existed here for thousands of years. In Crete, the remains of the Palace of Knossos and the story of the Minotaur and other mythical Greek creatures will quickly awaken the imagination.

Another sea direction From Vilnius –Larnaca, located in Cyprus. Here you will find unique corners of nature: from a salt lake, where pink flamingos like to congregate, to a medieval castle. Everything here tells about the long and changeable life of the city and the state.
Explorers of the underwater world are attracted to Larnaca by its spectacular views of sunken ships. For example, the wreck of the Zenobia ship has fueled various conspiracy theories for more than 40 years, since the ship suddenly sank in 1980 with a high-value cargo.

From Kaunas – to the king of Spain
Madrid attracts tourists with its city bustle and culture, and the Spanish capital is now easy to reach with a direct flight from Kaunas airport.
