Have you ever experienced culture while sleeping in a historic bed? Or comfortably getting from point A to point B? These and other unique adventures in Kaunas have been created by the hospitality programme of Kaunas \u2013 European Capital of Culture 2022. \u201cIf you try at least one of them, you\u2019ll never think that Kaunas is just Laisv\u0117s Al\u0117ja,\u201d the representatives of the team behind \u201cExperience Kaunas\u201d smile.<\/p>\n

Bed & Culture <\/strong>
\n\u201cBed & Culture\u201d is a chance to stay in an authentic Kaunas apartment. In 2022, you will be able to choose from a selection of places representing different eras of Kaunas \u2013 some of which will be open to guests for the first time!
\nAn authentic radio playing old schlagers will take guests back to the optimistic interwar period in Kaunas, while ladies\u2019 dresses reminding the style of the Provisional Capital will inspire you for an evening in the city, and perfumes in authentic art deco bottles will enhance the impression… And of course, there will also be books reflecting the era, and even board games \u2013 something that you wouldn\u2019t find in the modern yet traditional hotels.<\/p>\n

Who wouldn\u2019t want to stay in an Italian-inspired villa of the interwar architect Stasys Kudokas on the slopes of \u017daliakalnis, a carefully restored wooden villa in Panemun\u0117, or a real Art Deco museum in the very centre of Kaunas? Meanwhile, those interested in the Cold War era and post-war design should consider a night or two at a 70s-style apartment. It is quite possible that the number of Culture Lodging offers, and the number of apartments or villas representing the eras, will increase as 2022 gets underway.<\/p>\n

Culture Hosts <\/strong>
\nMore and more travellers are moving beyond traditional tourist attractions and are looking for authentic experiences, personal stories and discovery of the city through the eyes of a local. If you\u2019re shy about walking alone or talking to the first person you meet on the street, Cultural Concierges are here to help. They are Kaunas residents ready to show their hospitality, show you around their favourite places or special attractions that are not marked on the maps \u2013 and, of course, give you advice on the Kaunas 2022 programme. Live or in writing \u2013 free of charge.<\/p>\n

Culture Ride <\/strong>
\nGuests of Kaunas who have little time in the European Capital of Culture but a big appetite for new experiences will be able to call on… a cultural chauffeur. Simply put, it\u2019s a private ride with an interesting personality with a very intimate knowledge of Kaunas.
\nAmong the cultural chauffeurs who have already agreed to this adventure are artists, historians, photographers, cultural experts and even chefs. All of them are ready not to merely reveal the key highlights of Kaunas but also the places that are not mentioned in tourist guides.<\/p>\n
