  • G

    Gina

    Asked on May 28th, 2026

    Your Baltic Experience tour shows a lot of optonals. Are they guided? How far in advance do I need to book them?

    Tour Details
    • Intrepid TravelOperatorWritten May 2026

      All optional activities are booked in destination with your trip leader. Each day they will go over what's available and assist travellers in booking in their activity(s) of choice. Whether the activity is guided or self-guided may depend on the activity itself. For many of the activities listed the cost is merely just the cost of entry, for example a lot of the museums, or cathedrals listed, unless it specifically states a guided tour, is just the cost of entry. Whereas, something like the Beer Spa, may provide a more interactive experience with local guides.

Just a friendly reminder to double check the starting/ending locations for your trip and if there are any arrival/departure times you should follow for your tour.

    Single supplement
    • Intrepid TravelOperatorWritten February 2026

      Carlos

      TravelerWritten February 2026

      I noticed on the daily itinerary that the trip is not fully guided?

    • Intrepid TravelOperatorWritten February 2026

      This trip does include a group leader and guided activities at many key stops, but it is not "fully guided" in the sense that you are with a guide every minute of every day. The itinerary is designed to give you a mix of included guided experiences and free time to explore on your own at your own pace. Your group leader will be there to help with logistics, give local insights, assist with travel between destinations, and offer suggestions for what to see and do, but there will also be plenty of opportunities for independent exploration, meals, and sightseeing.
