All Latvia Tours & Excursions in 2026 - page 4

Would highly recommend to anyone travelling to Riga who wants to learn about Latvian food! Our guide was so nice and explained not only the significance of the foods we were trying, but she also pointed out other foods and explained how Latvians cooked with them and which foods they ate in which seasons.

My family and I had an absolutely wonderful time on this traditional food tasting experience at Riga Central Market! The market itself is a fascinating place to explore our guide helped us navigate the maze of stalls with ease. We got to taste a wonderful variety of traditional Latvian foods, fresh rye bread and local cheeses to smoked fish, and some delicious sweet treats we'd never tried before. we even got to have a traditional Latvian meal! Full meal with a traditional summer dish (cold beat soup), warm beans in a meat sauce, and even two yummy deserts! Every single bite was flavorful, and it was so much fun trying things we wouldn't have known to order on our own. What really made the experience special was our tour guide. She was incredibly knowledgeable about Latvian food traditions and history, sharing interesting stories and context behind each dish we tried. She was also so friendly and warm and everyone felt included and engaged throughout the tour. We left with full bellies, new favorite snacks, and a much deeper appreciation for Latvian cuisine. Highly recommend this tour for families, food lovers, or anyone visiting Riga who wants an authentic, tasty introduction to the local culture!

Lina was a great guide. She took us under the city to see the medieval buildings that we would never have known existed. She also told us about the gate near the barracks and the story of the lovers. This tour is definitely named correctly. Highly recommend this tour.
