HBO series Chernobyl was filmed in a Vilnius one of the sleeping quarters – Fabijoniškės. During the tour you will visit Fabijoniskes as well as other filming sites and learn about soviet life as well as Chernobyl catastrophe. The town of Pripyat (‘peaceful atom’), created in the late sixties to service the plant, was built during few decades as the symbol of a friendship between the soviet nations. Most of the Soviet republics had their town districts built by then. That is why the series were shot in Vilnius quarter Fabijoniskes that served as an example of Pripyat.

    Excellent

    Domas was outstanding! We got all the information about “Chernobyl” and so much more about Lithuania and Vilnius. Get out of those pre-packaged, big group style cruise tours and get a tour with Domas.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for the fantastic review! We’re thrilled to hear that Domas made the tour so informative and engaging, and that you enjoyed learning more about Lithuania and Vilnius. We truly appreciate your recommendation!

    Highlight of our trip.

    My husband and I loved this tour from Domas. It was personalized to what we were interested in (answered all our questions) such as Soviet history and Chernobyl filming. We visited unique spots that only this tour would take you. Not only did we learn from this tour, we took incredible photos that became our favorite memory from our trip! After the site touring, Domas took us to the KGB museum where he gave insight on information we would’ve not known and gave us free time after to explore. Highly recommend for your visit to Vilnius!!

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear you and your husband had such a meaningful experience with Domas. Your recommendation means a lot to us — wishing you many more great adventures ahead!

    Amazing tour!!!

    Amazing tour! The guide was extremely friendly, knowledgeable, and accommodating. You just cannot beat learning from a true local. Seeing the filming locations and learning about Lithuanian society was unforgettable!

    Response from the operator: Thank You!

    Loved this!

    Having recently watched the Chernobyl series, it was a delight to find out that there was a tour of where it was filmed in Vilnius. We only found out about it by accident, our bike tour guide mentioned it. Luckily, we managed to get booked in on our last day. We were collected from our hotel. The end of the tour is at the KGB museum which is included in the cost. The cost is a little steep but you are collected from your hotel and driven out of the centre of the city. Domas was a great guide and told us personal family stories which all added to the history of Lithuania under soviet rule. I now need to re-watch the series....

    Response from the operator: Dear Sarah, thank yopu so much for your review. We are so glad that you enjyed Chernobyl series tour in Vilnius! All the best in your future trips! :)

    First hand stories of life under Soviet regime

    Domas came and picked us up from the hotel. His English is excellent. Not only did we get to see all the places that featured in Chernobyl the series, he told us about life under Soviet Regime. It was very interesting. He left us at the KGB museum which was on our to do list anyway.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for your review! We are more than glad that you enjoyed the tour and regards from Domas :)

    Chernobyl Series Tour Vilnius: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Vilnius.

    How much does Chernobyl Series Tour Vilnius cost?

    +

    Prices start at $102 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Vilnius usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Chernobyl Series Tour Vilnius take?

    +

    Plan for about 2.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Vilnius is not rushed.

    Is Chernobyl Series Tour Vilnius worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 66 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 8 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Vilnius, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Chernobyl Series Tour Vilnius?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Chernobyl Series Tour Vilnius suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Chernobyl Series Tour Vilnius?

    +

    Around 3 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Vilnius can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Vilnius and add a light layer if any part of the 2.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Chernobyl Series Tour Vilnius start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Vilnius within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Vilnius?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Vilnius experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Admission Ticket at Auto Museum Vilnius, Regular walking tour of Soviet Vilnius, Regular walking tour of Jewish Vilnius. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Vilnius?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Vilnius?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Chernobyl Series Tour Vilnius?

    +

    Included: Private transportation; Pick up from your hotel; English speaking guide; and KGB museum ticket. Not included: Food and drinks; Transport to your hotel after the tour; and Guide at the KGB museum (museum is visited individually at the end of the tour). Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Chernobyl Series Tour Vilnius include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 23 listed pickup locations in and around Vilnius. Be ready about 15 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is Chernobyl Series Tour Vilnius offered in?

    +

    It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Chernobyl Series Tour Vilnius?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    Is Chernobyl Series Tour Vilnius wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller; and Infants are required to sit on an adult’s lap. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to Chernobyl Series Tour Vilnius if the weather is bad?

    +
