Advice and links to food & accommodation & tourists reviews
For accommodation booking in hotels, apartments and guest houses we suggest the use of hrs.com, booking.com, hotels.com, hotelscombined.com and other portals. For rentals of apartments and houses, please use the portals of interhome and novasol. You can also see the offer of regional agro tourism associations in all countries. Sometimes they are called farm vacations, vacation rentals etc. Private apartments through e.g. AirB&B are available in the whole region, up to 2018 no restrictions were imposed. We suggest to compare different vendors because prices and offers can differ for the same room, apartment and cottage. For reviews see e.g: Tripadvisor and Holliday portals. Hostels can be reserved through hostels portal.
Food purchase in not a problem in the whole region: all region countries offer a variety of restaurants, sophisticated and simple eating places, typically one can also eat some warm meals at food markets. Prices differ significantly depending on the offer and restaurants ranks. For budget tourist it is highly recommendable to use the option “cheap restaurant” in the internet browser what in numerous cases means popular food, big turnover, freshness and local tastes. Many types of food places are very unique like Polish milk bars, which provide variety of typical home food. In Lithuania local food markets offer sour vegetables what is a unique experience also. In all region countries organized supermarkets networks nearly eliminated independent food stores and the access to the real farmers’ products is relatively difficult.
