Travelling in the Baltics with LuxExpress

Question

Hi guys,I’m organizing my first trip in the Baltics and I was thinking about moving with LuxExpress, since trains are not the best around there. I was considering a night-bus from Warsaw to Vilnius and then day buses for Vilnius-Riga-Tallinn. Someone more experienced than me can please tell me if LuxExpress is a good company? How are the night-buses and the buses in general? Most importantly, is it safe to book now for August? And finally, how can I get a discount if I’m less than 26 y/o?I’m more accustomed to trains so I have no clue of how buses are or work… 😅Thank you very much in advance

Not always, but are you aware of the existing trains?

Warsaw-Vilnius:

Vilnius-Riga (this only started a few months ago):

Riga-Tallinn (unfortunately with a long wait):

LuxExpress are quite good.

How are the night-buses and the buses in general?

No idea about night buses - I avoid them. The buses on the day routes are good.

Most importantly, is it safe to book now for August? And finally, how can I get a discount if I’m less than 26 y/o?

By indicating your age on the booking page? There's also a small pass discount:
