The capital of Lithuania - the city of Vilnius - is considered one of the most beautiful in the Baltics. There are many historical monuments and magnificent buildings here. It is not surprising that it is to Vilnius that tourists began to travel much more often than, for example, five years ago.
Instructions
Step 1
The fastest way to get to Vilnius is to buy a plane ticket. Flights from Moscow to Vilnius of Transaero Airlines fly from Domodedovo airport, Uair aircraft take off from Vnukovo, and Aeroflot aircraft set off from Domodedovo. The flight time will be 1 hour 40 minutes.
Step 2
Those who are afraid to fly can buy a long-distance train ticket. Fortunately, flights "Moscow - Vilnius" and "Moscow - Kaliningrad" depart every day from the Riga station of the Russian capital. In both cases, you need to get off at the Vilnius station, and the travel time will take 17 hours and 50 minutes.
Step 3
Every day two buses leave from the bus station "Tushinskaya" on the route "Moscow - Vilnius". You have to go to the bus station Vilnius, travel time - 14 hours 50 minutes.
Step 4
There is another option for a bus trip - a bus “Moscow - Vilnius” leaves the metro station “Rechnoy Vokzal” once a day. In this case, you also need to go to the Vilnius Bus Station.
Step 5
Also a good option is to travel by your own car. You just need to remember that Lithuania is part of the Schengen area, which means that a Schengen visa is a must. In the first variant of a car trip, you must first move along the M1 “Belarus” highway, and then enter the territory of Belarus, where there will be an exit to the high-speed highways M-6 and M-7. And in Lithuania you have to go along the E-28 highway, which will lead to Vilnius. The time to be spent on the road is 13 hours 40 minutes. But only if during the journey there are no difficulties on the roads.
Step 6
But there is also a second option for a car trip from Moscow to Vilnius. To do this, you need to start your journey on the M9 “Baltia” highway and go to the Belarusian border. On the territory of Belarus, and in Latvia, you need to move along the A6 highway. The A6 highway will lead to the Latvian Daugavpils, from which to Vilnius a little more than 220 kilometers.
