Latvia>Estonia>Finland or Latvia>Lithuania>Poland?

[salem]

I've got a flight to Riga on the 1st Sept, original plan was to head up through Estonia and cross over to Finland for the return flight 10 days later.

Just realised I have to cut my trip down to 8 days so I need to rebook. It seems I can get a cheap flight back from Warsaw so could change the trip and make my way down via Lithuania.

I'm on a budget and will probably be travelling alone. Anyone got any suggestions or opinions on any of these countries?

belarus visa needed depending on route you use between lith and Warsaw

or sex up your journey and hit thefleshpots of the Kaliningrad oblast with their new E-Z short stay visa for brits and schengers

Kaliningrad express visa - 72 hour visa to Kaliningrad oblast

Side trip to Minsk by train from Vilnius?

Minsk is an interesting one - not many tinpot dictatorships left that you can drop into for a day

Finland gets my vote. Even if its just a glance at the Helsinki Rail Station.
