Baltic Tours in World Rowing Junior Championship 2017

Posted by Baltic Tours  |  August 23, 2017

A little bit more coffee and a little bit less sleep than usual – that’s how the last month for the Baltic Tours team looked like. Although the championship lasted for only 5 days, our team settled in Trakai much earlier.

A week before the championship, people from all around the world started gathering in Lithuania – Kaunas Airport was full of sportsmen, coaches, doctors, and other participants.

What did the Baltic Tours team do in Trakai?

Baltic Tours, as the official championship travel partner, looked after 1082 people from 63 countries. We took care of the food, transportation, and accommodation. It was 1,000 kilos of pasta eaten, 10,000 liters of water drunk, and more than 60,000 kilometers covered during the championship!

Moreover, we were speaking in many languages, and now we know that we can even communicate through body language!

Best Score for the Organization

The International Rowing Federation FISA rated this championship with the very best grade. We even received an award from the Lithuanian Rowing Federation for the great organization and a successful event. All of this wouldn’t have been possible without the impeccable job of our partners and the huge help of 200 volunteers.

It’s unbelievable that we accommodated 1082 athletes and 1500 foreign supporters in total; it is officially the biggest delegation so far!

The rowing spirit is already in the Baltic Tours team’s heart, so we know that this championship was just the beginning of all the beautiful things that are yet to unfold.
