Nicknamed "Europe's G-SPOT"…what is VILNIUS?

- Olivia and Nathan here!
LOL this was a real campaign that Vilnius, Lithuania made for their city.
This city is INCREDIBLE. And when we learned it had a dirty little nickname we understood why. The photo in the thumbnail totally reminds us of a mini Austin, Texas but Euro! They have just about everything you can think of (great food, a ton of outdoor parks, an epic old town, a solid bar scene, you can walk or scooter EVERYWHERE) and they've invested a ton of money into making this city an all around sweet lifestyle haven.

For me Lithuanian it is always nice to see how tourists from other countries see our country. You see, time runs and you starting to forget what interesting things you have. Thank you for the video and for refreshing what we have :)
Nu man nelabai patinka ką jie rodo, Vilnius vistiek gražesnis prie 15a metų buvo
Almost none of them are seeing Lithuania. They see Vilnius.
@@jorisbacelis2941 Toks žalias jis tada buvo, tiek medžių ir parkų visur. Kaip miške jauteisi ir žymiai autentiškesnis senamiestis buvo išlikęs nes mažiau naujų pastatų ir dalis senų dar nenugriauta.
We thoroughly loved our time there! Such a cool city! Cheers
I have been to Europe 44 times, visited 38 countries and Vilnius is one of my favorite cities. visited Vilnius last June and you two are absolutely correct in every detail. Less crowds, lux buses, coffee shops, restaurants. Afraid just a matter of time before crushed with tourists as western Europe.
The most crushing tourists from RF are not allowed to visit Lithuania 😊
Thanks for presenting Lithuania in such a nice way.
It was awesome! 🤘🏽
Vilnius is one of my favorite cities. My last time there was in July.
(I live in Finland)
Vilnius is good city to visit as tourist, but living there is awful, its one of worst capitals of europe
@pipkarulka2871 I m from Lithuania but I was live in Tallinn much more better was live in Vilnius then Tallinn
Hmm, i was in Tallin, really beautful city, vilnius old town is great too, but outside of old town and city centre everything looks like in ukraine or russia, same awful infrastructure, grey and deppressed buildings. i am really curious what you liked more about Vilnius and why tallin is worse? they have less inflation, higher salaries, lower prices(atleast in supermarkets) you probably dont know, but in last two years prices increades by 100-150%, so twice or more, while salaries grow much slower, everything is getting digital in Estonia aswell, and they have better relationship with china and other countries which baltic states are dependable @@lukazsport
Lucky to be so close!
@@pipkarulka2871why? It's literally such an amazing city to live in.
I came back from there literally 5 hours ago :) Such a hidden gem! And the nature surrounding the town is also stunning.
Sadly, as a local, I would say that during the last 10 years due to new construction projects, like those glass buildings, maybe 20-30% of nature around old town is gone.
The city is a growing organism, my friend
@@benasmazeika5006 but usually that leads to the ugliest cities. The faster the growth, the uglier it is as there is less need to create something beautiful, buildings need to be larger, constructed cheaper and more quickly.
Beautiful place, glad you enjoyed it!
I think I found it!!!... those wide public spaces, multisport facilities, the artists "Country" the youth making the majority of the City, the vibrant food, cafés etc. scene, the not so crowded streets, amongst other stuff, makes Vilnius the supposedly G spot, because it gives high pleasure to everybody, according to your preferences. the other G spot is a different ball game.🤣🤣🤣
Big time G spot haha 🤣
I've been living in California for 15 years and I'm originally from Europe. It doesn't take long for Americans to come to Europe and realize that their cities and states are just bubbles. Because in Europe you see culture, history, people on the street. In America, you cannot show that there is life on the street to people who wait for drive thru service without getting out of their car even to withdraw money from the ATM. Thank you for making people who have never seen Europe in their lives, who have only seen Mexico or Canada and think that they have seen the world, digest and think about what they have seen.
The world is BIG and we're learning so much along the way!
As someone who moved to the US after 25 years of living in the east, EU sucks ass. It's booring as hell. Everything is overpriced and the only reason there is money in the EU is because Americans even decide to visit.
It's always nice to visit Europe but it's only nice to visit broken countries. I can even enjoy a visit in Russia more than Ohio Falls. But that does not mean Ohio Falls is not better than Russia or that Ohio Falls is a bubble.
Once you break your leg in Vilnius you will learn that you wished you broke it in the US. I know millionares that jetted themselves to a different country with a piece of metal stuck in their arm just in order to avoid being treated there. Mind you, get treated in the first ER or urgent care from the airport with 2 star google reviews. I personally flew back home with a broken nose because the doc in the baltics said my nose was fine. Turned out it was completely shattered.
I would say that it is the same thing if you are trying to grow a family. The depression and lack of sun and outdoor and even indoor playgrounds for kids is insane. You can't even find a pediatrician of choice. Your choices are extremely limited.
Vargšas Tu esi,užuojauta..😔
On 0:44 you are showing view of Tallinn, Estonia, nice work!
On 1:07 view from Riga, 1:27 Tallinn again, 5:35 Tallinn again, really? So boring old town that no good views?
Came here to say the same
@@iceuul674 or maybe they really don't notice different details between cities? But that would be strange, all of them are pretty unique.
Good eye
You guys have the best travel content. Fresh, crisp cities that have little coverage.
Thanks again for the nice comment, all the best!
Great Baltic tour, we went to the same cities before leaving Vilnius for Moscow, that was in the early 90s not long after the fall of communism. So nice to see everything cleaned up.
It was very very clean, they really have done a wonderful job!
@@ONWorldTravel ya, 50 years of communism, diesel emissions and no clean air standards left the buildings black with suit.
Do you know that you included images of other two Baltic capitals in this video? 😃 Tallinn, Estonia and Riga, Latvia? 🙈😀 Indeed, all three are amazing and beautiful 😉
Good catch! :)
That slogan is awesome, gotta go there
Check it out!
Baltics are sooo underrated. I love all of the Baltics countries and cities. ❤
Soooo underrated, can't wait to go back when Rail Baltica gets completed!
I will have to travel there!! We enjoy your videos so much!!!
Thanks so much, definitely check it out!
You guys find some of the most interesting places that really open us up to possibilities not previously considered 😊 Always enjoy your vids and worth rewatching before choosing our next destination 👍🏼 safe travels ✌️💃🕺🏼
Have a blast of good experiences in Your travels and good memories about Baltic!
Thanks, all the best!
Thank you for sharing this visit to Vilnius, really enjoy your content. Cheers...
Thanks! Cheers
Kudos for your editing skills, and also for your unique portrayal of my beloved city ...
Thanks so much!
Very cool presentation of my home town. Cheers!
Thanks! All the best
you have perfect balance of commentary and montage (wouldn't mind even more commentary). And I like that your commentary is concise and accurate
Thanks for the great feedback, we were thinking along those same lines, still working on it! All the best!
I live in Vilnius, but rarely do I go to the old town. After watching this I think I'll go there more often :D
It's great, there's a lot of variety in Vilnius!
Nice to see travelled and cultured Americans (roughly
Isn't that the mission of life, to find G-spots in faraway lands? 🤣
Went to Riga this Easter, Vilnius would be next on my list.
It's awesome, highly recommend!
Welcome in Vilnius! Great to see you in my home city! Have fun!
Thanks so much, we really enjoyed it!
A look into Vilnius is a look into a great city - well done.
Thanks!
Vilnius pretty empty at summer time.Many students went out to there cities and Vilnius people like to go for long holidays in the nature(lakes,sea. At September or last summer week you can see Vilnius a little overcrowded by locals eye;)
aha , patikek ir vasara dirba zmogai,5 pm neimanoma...:P
No too much people cause a most students go to their parents for the summer+people take vacations, but in the autumn/winter/spring we have less tourists, so it kinda balances having not too much, but enough people to have fun. :D
That looks like an awesome itinerary! I want to repeat it someday.
It’s incredible, highly recommend! 🙌🏽
All of the Nordics (the Baltics and Scandinavia) are perfect for American tourists who hate American tourists. I lived in Paris for a year and a half when I was younger, so I've had a lifetime fill of rude, provincial American tourists from flyover. Like, I don't want to be anywhere near the kind of people who go to Italy and order Alfredo, or get upset that spaghetti and meatballs are two separate dishes. If I wanted to be around people like that I'd go to the fucking Olive Garden or Disney World.
The Nordics have spectacular interesting food. (And it's not all slightly nicer versions of things they serve all over the US.) Great museums. Great culture. Adorable old city centers. Great shopping. (Like, actual locally made products instead of plastic replicas of buildings stamped with the name of the city.) People speak English practically everywhere. Gorgeous nature. Great quality to price ratio. (Like, they're not cheap, but they're less expensive than comparable quality in the US. Like you can get dinner at a Michelin starred restaurant for around $200 for two people, and in the US you're lucky to pay less than $400.)
Are they good for tourists who want to take the same "classic" European photos that everyone else takes for Instagram? No. That's kind of ideal though if you don't want to be around a bunch of loud Americans taking pictures of their food and comparing notes on Barcelona.
ya missed Paupys in Vilnius :).. it's the mix of modern and old buildings, art and etc.
Dang it...next time
Thank you for showing this to me, now I'm definitely going, and bringing half of Bulgaria there.
This is some top tier editing. Subbed
I could also see Riga in some images - wowowow
at 0:44 it is actually Tallinn, the capital of Estonia, which is another coutnry :D
Good catch
he is not the only one to catch this
an it's not the only insertion of Tallinn
Such a nice video!! Thank you for showing Vilnius, love this video!!❤️
You guys absolutely crack me up every time. Love your vlogs.
Very nice presentation. Thank you!🙏 How long did you stay in Lithuania?
Only a week but we'll be back! Maybe when Rail Baltica gets completed!
Great vlog guys, really. You are doing it very well.
Thanks a lot, we doing our best!
Hey, nice vlog! Labas from Vilnius!!! ✊🇱🇹
Thanks!
I just watched 4 of your vidéos in a row starting with the Helsinki épisode. Lovin your vibe, you guys are cracking me up with your comments😂, silly without over doing it. Just subscribed 😊
Thanks a lot for this amazing video.Really enjoyed it ❤
Great video! Waiting for Krokow:)
Have you checked out Krakow yet?! Cheers!
Stunning, and beautiful, am I too old at a youthful 50?! I love the Balkans, full of surprises ❤
Nice video. Thanks. Really professional
U know I love you guys. Great vid dudes
Thank you
Thanks again my dude!! All the best!
Nice content!
Thanks!
Nice :)
@On World Travel-love these videos. I watched Helsinki, Tallinn, Riga and Vilnius. Next I’ll watch Poland. I will be going to all these places in August. I fly from Vilnius to Krakow and will do 9 days in Poland and end in Warsaw. Your videos are so good. Wish they were longer! Thanks, Lisa (I did Zagreb a few months ago and then the coast of Croatia. So, I really loved the Zagreb video too as I recognized so many things).
That’s awesome, thanks for tuning in! We definitely were surprised with the Baltics and the overall lifestyle there! You’re going to have a fabulous time!
@@ONWorldTravel You guys are great! Keep doing these videos. You’re so happy and seem to like the same things I do, so I will continue to tune in!
Wow! 10/10
This video is the example of how to create this type of content. 🙌
Obviously as a fellow lithuanian, I had that "cat licking his nuts" feeling... 😄
But Yeah, you guys are pros. 😎
Hahaaa cat licking his nuts 🤣you're awesome
Damn guys, your video is amazing! Great editing! Enjoy life!
Thanks a lot for kind words
Thanks for the Video, the Flag at 8:45 shows a Hand with a hole, and the hole is a symbol that nothing is forever, so the message is ,,even with your hands, you can´t hold it'' ...thx for the nice content🙂
I want to go to there!
It's lit 🔥
Gražus miestas, linkėjimai broliams lietuviams tiesiai iš Lenkijos ;D
it's a pity that you passed by my hometown Kaunas, it's also a beautiful city like Vilnius
We drove by but didn't have enough time to visit, will have to do it next time!
Now its biggest city in baltics...
Awesome video! Do you think you guys will go back to camping?
Yes, definitely at some point! It's in the works but won't be for a while still. Thanks!
You guys forgot to visit Paupys :(
Next time!
1:07 the shot from sky is riga
0:44 & 01:28 - mistake - it's Tallinn 🇪🇪
01:07 - mistake - it's Ryga 🇱🇻
Good catch
Vilnius recently became the largest city in the Baltic States
Good point about crowded turist citys in the summer.
If you wanna go to the popular places in Europe then go in the spring. Expecially South Europe is miserable in the summer. Way too hot and packed with people. Italy or Spain in the August is a nightmare.
Couldn't agree more, we loved avoiding those countries in summer months! 🙌🏽
Is it called the Eirope's G-spot because nobody can find it? I am pretty sure Vilnius exists..
Hahahaa 🤣
Well, if you're looking for G-spot, you have to look around first. Somewhere in region of Clithuania.🤭
Диагноз - зависть !?
🤣
Just a note, the Bolt electric scooters and Lux Express buses what you used to travel around Baltic states are Estonian companies.
wow, amazing.
We learned that while we were in Estonia a few weeks before this...Estonia's making big moves in the tech space 💪🏽
I am sure that shot around 1:08 is of Riga…
Some drone shots are from Tallinn, Estonia, just sayin.
But your videos are awesome!
Thanks, and good eye! 👁
❤Aciu
0:43 - it's Tallin, guys.
Feel bad for Finland getting so little love. I guess you missed summer there, as it's super nice.
I hope you guys we'll do some comparison of the countries in one episode. Maybe compare prices against each other, the cuisine, how the locals are, etc.
I wouldn't say Finland got so little love. My opinion Finland was more focused on the people and the culture than actual "sightseeing", which I think should exactly be the case.
Finland is the first video in this series, let us know what you think! Cheers
Vilnius is actually the biggest in Baltics, recently surpased Riga. About 640k population. So when people say its small and what not, well... is boston small? How about vegas? Because if Vilnius was in usa, it would make like top28 list, with mentioned cities in comparable size.
Fried zeppelins, wait what? Never heard of that, maybe you are talking about Žemaičių blynai (potato pancakes with meat). 😄
We only fry zeppelin slices in pan on 2nd or 3rd day (the left overs from 1st day).
The vloggers are not wrong: fresh cepelinai- boiled, 2nd day ceps - cut into half and fried. Antros dienos cepakai - man net skanesni. Bent keli restoranu tinklai jau siūlo ir šviežius, ir antros dienos.

"Nobody knows" is a legitimate synonym for "Americans don't know".
Nobody knows where our money is going in Ukraine. Nobody knows how Europe would survive without us as tourists.
@@jamesh1641 Even Americans recognize the troll of the St. Petersburg troll factory.. to be more precise, at least 5% of them.
@jamesh1641 is that what Fox News told you? The amount Americans bring in to Europe in tourism money amounts to a nit on the nut of a gnat.
kinda true lol
At 5:34 you're showing Tallinn, not Vilnius
0:44 Just a comment, that's not Vilnius, that is Tallinn.
Vilnius is the city of Gediminas. The eternal capital of Lithuania. Greetings from Warsaw.
It is the biggest city in Baltics. Not Riga.
I dunno, I was and always will be Kaunas gang :)
WORLDS CUTEST TRAVEL COUPLE ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks so much Taylor!!!
Bruh with The 2 Live Crew 💀
5:34 it’s Tallinn, not Vilnius
Why didn't you hold the door for the old lady?
Say history of the three crosses of vilnius thanks
Well i live there
That’s awesome
Beadiful couple 😘, can you tell my the song 3:28 thanks
Actually Vilnius is the Biggest City in the Baltics. The biggest Old Town in Europe. You can't get lost in Old Town anyway you gonna reach main point.
Good to know!
Lovely camera work and editing... yep, couple of drone shots were from Tallinn and Rīga 😄👍🏻 ( not a problem, they both are our bros, and both are UNESCO Heritage cities, like Vilnius). Vilnius has something unique because of our history : GDL - medieval Grand Duchy of Lithuania. It was a pretty liberal place even back then: invited the Jewish refugees from the rest of Europe, was a tolerant mix of various religions (incl our own pagonybė = paganism). So Vilnius is this smorgasbord of cultural heritage from Lithuanian🇱🇹, Jewish🇮🇱, Poland🇲🇨, old Belarusian and Russian (starovery) refugees, old German traders , and now Ukrainian 🇺🇦communities.
Shame about this fact though: during the last 230 years, for 170 years Vilnius and Lithuania were denied freedom.
3 brutal occupation periods of Vilnius and Lithuania by a whole bunch of barbaric dictators: hitlerite germany in 1941-1944, tsarist russia- 1795 to 1914, and then red terror - stalinist/communist russia 1940-41/1944-1990...
Now 33 years of freedom, and look were Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia are: open, liberal, progressive, innovative and cool.
Good eye lol we loved the Baltics!
Uzupis was more of a joke we're still running with
"Give me liberty or give me death"
We kinda got that vibe but still enjoyed it lol
It's extra funny because we fought for a free Lithuania
Jezzz.... 1:26 is not Vilnius, it's Tallinn...
You went to Vilnius but never ventured beyond it! That’s a huge mistake. Lithuania is beautiful in general, Vilnius is just a preview of what’s out there
Europes 3rd spot
Olivia almost got a facial at 12:31....
Thanks..
Thank you!
Nice?
I just want a Lithuanian woman. They’re the most beautiful woman on earth..
Thank you for going behind the Iron Curtain so we don’t have to.
On 0:44 it shows Estonian capital Tallinn... Oh never mind, Tallinn will be shown multiple times, while the guy talks about how special Vilnius is.. Good job...🤣
go to kaunas better next time
Dunno why everyone is showing Hales Market as a cool place. As a LITHUANIAN who haven't lived in LITHUANIA for 15 years I really don't like that place. Everyone speaks ruzzian there. Noone bothers to speak LITHUANIAN. Makes me feel really uncomfortable in my home country when I visit. Learn the language.
Ah we had no idea. Was on the “top things to see” list so we popped in. Going to Lido was wayyyy cooler 👊🏼
You have not been here for 15 years, wake up.
@@antasosam8486 I was few months ago 😂
Why do you even care, you don’t live here so shut up :DD
the reason why these places are 'unknown' is just a pure ignorance and stupidity 😁
Bro, why is your voice so high pitched and squeeky
Inhaled some helium
