What are people saying about Riga

Group Day trip to Rundale Palace, Hill of Crosses & Bauska Castle

Patrick_B, Jul 2026

Great tour outside of Riga including Rundale

Tom is the best guide I have had in quite some time. He is very young, but has a good understanding of what is important in life so he presents things in a realistic light with a good understanding of history (his school major) and Latvia's current situation. He drove very carefully and safely too. The tour itself was very interesting. First the Hill of Crosses (in Lithuania), esp. with Tom's stories of how it evolved despite being "controversial" with Russia. Then the Castle of Rundale - beautiful, many rooms to explore before the gardens which are so pretty, and finally Kaunas, a completely different castle, more like a fortress, and the stories around it. I loved the day through all these discoveries! And a big thank you to Tom!

Latvian food tasting tour at Riga Central market (20 tastes)

Great way to get a basic...

Great way to get an understanding of Latvian food and to learn about the historical and current importance of the Riga Central Market. The size and scale of the market are unique and it should be a must see while in Riga. My tour with Baiba was a great learning and tasting experience. She’s a fantastic tour guide and extremely knowledgeable about Latvian food and culture. I highly recommend doing this tour.

Riga Gun Range: shooting with Winchester, Glock17, & Kalashnikov

julie_s, May 2026

Excellent shooting experience

We had a fantastic experience at the gun range with Janis. There was some initial confusion about how to get to the location, but Janis was incredibly helpful and kindly came to pick us up, which we really appreciated and immediately put us at ease. From start to finish, the experience was well organised, safe, and very enjoyable. Janis was friendly, professional, and made sure everything was clearly explained, especially for those with little or no previous experience. The instructors were knowledgeable and patient, and the whole session was exciting and memorable. Thank you to Janis for going above and beyond to make sure we had such a great experience. We would highly recommend this activity to anyone looking for something different and enjoyable.

Good overview of Riga

Excellent historical overview of the city. The pace was good and we learned a lot. Although I had trouble with the headset initially, it was swapped out and then worked fine. Two others had trouble with the headsets as well. I would definitely recommend this walking tour as a nice way to learn about Riga. There was non-stop flow of information.

Riga Old Town walking tour

Diana_R, May 2026

We absolutely loved our walking tour in Riga!

We absolutely loved our walking tour in Riga! Our guide made the Old Town feel magical, full of stories, charm, and little hidden details we never would have discovered on our own. From the beautiful Town Hall Square to the stunning churches and cozy streets, every stop felt special because of the way she brought the history to life. We especially loved hearing the unbelievable story about St. Peter’s Church and learning why the flowers in Livu Square are always blue — those little details made the tour feel so personal and memorable. And of course, the adorable Cat House was one of our favorite moments! Finding the famous cat and hearing the funny story behind it made us smile the entire day. It’s those charming touches that made this tour stand out so much. Our guide was warm, knowledgeable, funny, and genuinely passionate about Riga. She also gave wonderful local tips at the end of the tour that made the rest of our stay even better. Thank you for such a lovely experience and for making us fall in love with Riga. We will remember this tour very fondly!

This was a great...

This was a great introduction to Latvia food and the large central market. Sorry, I think the tour guide name was Ina? She was great, told us a lot of great info about various Latvian things. Her pace is a little on the quicker side which I appreciated. Starting the tour with balsam tastings was pretty cool.

I really liked this tour. Our guide was a great driver and was excellent at giving context and history to the sights we saw on the trip. It was a memorable day trip for me and our guide also recommended a great restaurant at the end which I really enjoyed. I’d definitely recommend this one!

Soaring with Boris: Epic Hang Gliding Over Riga!

What an incredible adventure hang gliding over Riga! Boris, with over 40 years of experience, made the entire experience safe and thrilling as we soared above the Old Town, Daugava River, and Baltic Sea views. Booking was a breeze via WhatsApp with Tatyana, who responded quickly and clearly to confirm times and details - no hassle at all. Boris’s calm expertise put me at ease from briefing to landing, turning a bucket list thrill into pure magic. Highly recommend for adrenaline seekers!

Private Riga Old Town Walking Tour

G_C, Mar 2026

Excellent Eduardas! A great Riga tour guide

Our tour guide, Eduardas, was simply fantastic! He pitched the tour perfectly for our students (aged 12-14) and was engaging and very informative. He was patient, waiting for slower legs to catch-up!, and extremely knowledgeable about the history of Riga and very talented speaking 4 languages! Thank you, Eduardas.

2 Hours Walking Tour in Legends and Secret of Riga's Old Town

Mary_L, Sep 2025

Private Historical Tour of Riga - time well spent!

We had a short time in Riga. We felt that Lina's tour gave us the biggest bang for our buck. It was thorough with lots of historical information. After the tour, we went back to a couple of museums that she had pointed out. Lina recommended a local restaurant for lunch. Although we only had 24 hours in Riga, with Lina's private tour we made the most of it.
