Car Hire Kaunas - Mini guide to Kaunas

Kaunas may only be the second biggest city in Lithuania but this doesn't mean that it pales in comparison to Vilnius or to other interesting travel destinations in the country for that matter. There was a time when this city became a temporary capital which helped it grow significantly, making it one of the most popular tourist spots in Lithuania and the rest of the Baltic region.

The best way to get around the city is by arranging for car hire in Kaunas. From there, travelers can start driving around some of the most notable sites in the city. Tourists usually start by taking a stroll along the fully-pedestrianized Laisves Aleja. This street runs from the Church of St. Michael the Archangel to the Old Town. It is lined with an assortment of restaurants, retail stores, museums and night clubs.

From there, tourists can drive to the Kaunas Castle using their car rental in Kaunas or visit the largest monastery complex in the country, the Pazaislis Church and Monastery. The complex is an excellent example of Italian Baroque architecture on this part of Eastern Europe.

Further out, a drive to the Mega, a huge shopping complex on the outskirts of the city will complete every traveler's holiday. The shopping centre is accessible using a cheap car hire in Kaunas.

Entry into the city is through the Kaunas Airport which provides low cost flights to other cities in the Baltic Region. The central station near downtown is also served by trains coming from the capital city of Vilnius and Klaipeda.
