I had an awesome experience touring the beautiful Kemeri Bog and Jurmala with my guide, Maria. Maria was very knowledgeable about the bog, the history of Kemeri's sanitorium and park and the wooden architecture of Jurmala. She also helpfully called the restaurant where I might have dropped my wallet after the tour, allowing me to locate it :)!
I highly recommend this tour for anyone who loves basking in nature as the view from the observation tower in the bog is simply breathtaking!

Absolutely brilliant tour. Our guide, Erlens, was one of the best guides we've ever had. He went above and beyond with his attention to detail, his knowledge, his easy-going attitude and genuineness.
The bog boardwalk in Kemeri National Park was very scenic and a great trip into Latvian countryside. We had a lovely drive and walk around Jurmala, and were given lots of information by Erlens.

Thank you very much for the review. It's truly a great pleasure to hear that you enjoyed the tour. With best wishes, Erlens.

Erlens was a fantastic guide who was friendly and informative. He provided water, suggested alternatives if we desired them and ensured we spent the necessary time at each stop (Kemeri bog, Jurmula town and the Black sea beach). Thank you for a wonderful tour.

The fresh air in the National Park was amazing! It was also a new experience to walk though a bog and to witness the changes in plant life, water, and birds on that ecosystem. Jurmala was a complete bit nice contrast to the National Park in the sense that this town is of careful human creation rather than of the natural creation exhibited by the Park. The Baltic coast beach was also quite a contrast to the bog in the Park! Erlens was a fantastic tour guide: expertly knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive.

Orlando molto bravo, gentile e paziente. Una persona bella da conoscere. Parco molto interessante e anche la
spiaggia e la
cittadina sul mare ci sono piaciute.
Passeggiata non impegnativa adatta a tutti, zanzare presenti per parte del cammino (zona foresta) ma lui ci ha dato lo spray anzizanzare. Consiglio cmq pantaloni lunghi e felpa x proteggersi. Portare costume pero per nuotatina in spiaggia (acqua assolutam non fredda, spogliatoi in spiaggia).
Response from Host, Sep 2024
Cara Elisa,
Sono davvero felice che tu e tua figlia abbiate apprezzato questa escursione. Grazie mille per il tempo trascorso insieme.
Cordiali saluti,
Orlando
