Day or night

Works as a day trip

On Sundays with the 20:00 home to London Luton: you're in Vilnius 12:58 to 18:12 and the market is open all of it. About 2 hours of that is after dark.

Getting to Vilnius and back in a day

1 UK airport

Out 07:35, home 20:00 (local time)
Whole day from £78.25, checked 23 Oct
See the 29 Nov day trip

Airport to the centre: Train, 8 min, €0.90.

Getting around: 24h ticket €7.50.

How the day-or-night answer works: the latest flight home, minus 8 minutes back to the airport, minus 90 minutes at the airport. The 90 minutes is our assumption. Flight times are the saved winter timetable, not a booking.
