Booking apps in Lithuania

Agreeing the fare in an app before you travel removes the argument at the end of the journey, which is where most transport scams happen. Links go to each app's official page — lookalike apps are themselves a scam.

Bolt

The dominant ride-hailing service in Lithuania.

Coverage: Vilnius, Kaunas and Klaipėda.
Why it helps: Fare is agreed in the app before the trip, and the route is recorded — which removes the refused meter, the tampered meter and the fixed 'foreigner price' in one move.

Trafi

Vilnius journey planning and ticketing, built locally.
