Magan_K, Sept 2026

Tour guide was great! She had a great deal of knowledge and was able to answer all of our questions beyond the typical traveler. Pace was perfect for a mixed group as well! Thank you for the great day.

Flexible and fun

Andrew_S, Sept 2026

Very enjoyable 3 hour tour and conversation with Arturs. The agenda was set by my interests and Arturs English was excellent. We stayed mainly in the old town but visited some other areas too, including the railway station which is a remarkable place!

Old town Riga a must visit

Linda_R, Mar 2026

The private walking tour of old town Riga was most interesting and educational. Our guide, Orhan is very knowledgeable and friendly. Made us feel at home immediately, and we could enjoy the tour at our own pace. He is a credit to Viator

Terri_G, Jul 2025

Riga’s interesting history was shared by our guide who was excellent. We kept up a good pace, but it wasn’t too strenuous.

Julia was a wonderful leader. This was our first time in Riga, and she truly brought the city to life for us. We thoroughly enjoyed learning about the history of this beautiful city and seeing all of the important sights.
