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?

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

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

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