Vilnius’ rather depressing bus station (autobusų stotis) is located less than 1km south of Old Town in a less than salubrious, albeit perfectly safe area. Not geared up for foreign arrivals in the slightest, most facilities are located inside one large grey building and include kiosks and shops for snacks, maps, cigarettes and prepaid mobile phone cards, downstairs toilets (1Lt) and ATMs. For 24-hour currency exchange, use the Citadele bank across the street and just to the right of the train station. A bagažinė for left luggage is located outside at the far end of the platforms. Getting to town Get to Old Town in a few minutes by turning left on exiting the station and walking down the hill (Sodų). Countless buses, minibuses and trolleybuses can be found in the immediate area, all going off in different directions around the city and none of them offering a lot of help for people who don’t speak Lithuanian. Among the useful trolleybuses going through the city centre are Nº2 and 5. Buy a ticket from the driver for 2.50Lt. Taxis are parked up in a number of places. Be sure to negotiate a fare before you leave. Expect to pay 20Lt or even more for a short trip to Old Town. Calling one in advance is the best option.
