Daytrip is a platform that connects you with local drivers who will transport you door-to-door, from one city to the next. We also give you the opportunity to explore sights/attractions along the way. We drive, you discover.
All Daytrip bookings are one way. If you need a return trip on a different date, simply book this as a separate one-way trip. For a same-day excursion, please request a custom trip. If you plan to stay more than a couple hours, we still recommend booking two one way trips so you're not paying a driver for waiting.
For Daytrip’s private service, you can cancel for a full refund up to 24 hours before departure. For the Daytrip Pool shared shuttle, we offer 3 ticket options when booking: Non-refundable, Flexible with cancellations 24-hours before departure, and Super-flexible with cancellations up to 15-minutes before departure. While you can cancel your booking for a full refund up to 24 hours in advance, changes requested under 36 hours are subject to driver availability, especially in the high season.
Simply choose your origin and destination via our homepage and enter your departure date and time. Browse and add sightseeing stops along the way by following the booking instructions provided on screen. It's a simple, easy, and fun way to book your next adventure! And if you don’t see your desired route on our website, you can request a custom trip. You can even book without knowing your exact pick-up or drop-off address - we let you add these later!
Each passenger is allowed one large bag (29" x 21" x 11" / 74 x 53 x 28 cm) and one small bag (22" x 14" x 9" / 56 x 36 x 23 cm). Luxury sedans can only accommodate 2 large bags. We always send the vehicle that is the best fit for you and your luggage, so make sure to select the actual amount of luggage you are traveling with when booking. If you have oversized luggage, or are unsure if your luggage will fit, contact us.
Everywhere except the USA, drivers will supply appropriate child seats (just let us know during booking). In the USA, certain states require you to supply your own child seats.
There is a direct 4-hour bus from Riga to Vilnius, but a faster and more comfortable experience might come from a Daytrip private car transfer. This swift door-to-door service boasts unmatched safety and convenience with a friendly, English-speaking professional driver.
The most affordable option is the direct bus ticket, which typically costs $20-$50, with the most reasonable prices available on the Lux Express when booked online. These relatively cheap tickets run between the Rīgas Starptautiskā Autoosta and Vilnius Shopping Centre panorama bus stations.
While it is possible to visit Vilnius as a day trip from Riga, the journey is at least 3.5 hours long, and it may be better to plan to spend one night in Vilnius's historic old town to make the most of your road trip between these two cities.
There is a direct train from Riga to Vilnius, and the journey takes an average of 4.5 hours, not counting the time spent getting to and from the train stations. Passengers can purchase a mobile ticket online in advance for the most reasonable price, typically around $15-$25.
The direct bus from Riga to Vilnius International Airport takes around 5.5 hours. Alternatively, several private shuttle companies run services along this route and may be able to offer a faster or more flexible journey out of this Baltic capital.
The best option for the Riga to Vilnius transfer is with a Daytrip private transfer. This service elevates your travel experience with door-to-door transport and the option to create your own sightseeing tour with stops such as the Rundale Palace.

“Gonzalo from daytrip was our driver and he was absolutely amazing. He went over and beyond trying to locate us as our service wasn't so good on our phones. He patiently awaited our arrival to the lobby so he could take us from Tulum Dreams Resort to our other hotel in cancun an hour and a half away near the airport prior to our departure flight home. He was polite, respectful and kind. Made sure we were comfortable during our long ride. Fast and to the point. I recommend this company as finding a one way ride from Tulum to Cancun isn't easy or cheap and this company provides a great service for a great price. I will definitely be using them again whenever I'm in the Cancun/Tulum area. Thank you DayTrip and Gonzola.”
“We were picked up by Marianna to drive us from Heraklion to Chania. The weather was terrible & due to this Marianna arrived a few minutes late. She contacted me to advise of this. Marianna lives in Chana and she made our trip very interesting by informing us of local things to do and see in Chania. Marianna is a safe driver and we all felt comfortable with the speed she drove at and how good her driving was in heavy rain. She is a lovely person with fluent English. We highly recommend Daytrips and if you are in Heraklion or Chania please make sure you ask for Marianna.”
“We traveled from Riga to Vilnius by way of Bauska castle (60 min) and Rundale Palace (60 min). They let us know of the driver details a few day before the trip, which was a relief. The driver was a kind gentleman with good English and knowledge of sightseeing. The car was very clean and he drove safely. The palace was very nice and we should have alocated more time. The whole trip was comfortable and saved a lot of time when compared with a bus trip. We will use Daytrip again.”
“We had a great experience with Daytrip. Janis was a wonderful driver and guide. When looking for options to travel from Riga to Vilnius, we found limited options. When I found your company, and the possibility to not only get from one place to the next, but see sights along the way, it was a perfect fit. Janis was a great conversationalist and found a beautiful spot for us to have lunch.”
