What to see in Lithuania with your car rental
Lithuania is a relatively small country, but there is so much to see and do. Use your car rental to navigate your way around the capital city, Vilnius, and take in the stunning architecture of the Old Town, declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1994. One of the most awe-inspiring sights in Lithuania is the Hill of Crosses. This hillock is covered in thousands of devotional and memorial crosses - it is thought that the tradition of erecting crosses dates back to the 14th century. This site of pilgrimage is 6 miles north of Siauliai in northern Lithuania, easy to get to in your Sixt car hire. There are five national parks, all worth a visit for their beautiful scenery and fascinating wildlife. Car hire in Lithuania will enable you to get to the Baltic sea coast as well, one of the most picturesque coastlines in Europe.

Had some customers service issues with Sixt car rentals before, but the customer service at Kaunas airport is at different level. Rented a car from this place second time and no issues at all. Girl behind the counter explained every single bit needed to know. Even when I got mixed up with booking dates and no cars were available she managed to get us going in no time! Keep up the good work 👌

Absolutely 5 star experience. Got upgraded to a better car when we arrived, free of charge. Left an item on the plane when we arrived, Sixt Kaunas was helpful beyond what can be expected in retrieving my belongings. Will not hesitate renting from them again.
