• Vilnius Old TownExplore a partly pedestrianised historic district with churches, the university quarter, a cathedral and a castle. It is recognised by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization as a World Heritage Site.
• UžupisThis artistic district in eastern Vilnius playfully declares itself an independent republic.
• Trakai Island CastleIts red towers and waterside setting make it one of the country's most attractive castles.
• Curonian Spit and Hill of WitchesA short ferry ride from Klaipėda reaches this long strip of dunes and forest. Near Juodkrantė, wooden sculptures illustrate local stories and legends.

• Theft in crowds or of unattended belongingsMoney or valuables can be stolen when they are left unattended, displayed openly or poorly watched in a crowd. No specific distraction method is described.
• Higher fares for street-hailed taxisA taxi taken from the street may charge more than one booked by phone or app. In Vilnius, the fare may be twice as much. A longer route alone does not prove a scam: city traffic restrictions can require detours.
• Street sales and donation approachesStrangers may approach visitors to sell something or ask for donations. These approaches are flagged as a reason for caution, but no specific false story, payment trick or theft method is described.
