Valentina was Amazing Guide

Request Valentina as your guide, she was amazing! My mom and I enjoyed our time with her and wish we could have spent more time. She is very knowledgeable and friendly.

This was a case of the guide turning a run-of-the mill tour into something more. Valentina's knowledge (and love) of the city made this tour great. It was a great introduction to the city and the country for our first full day in Riga. We paired it with the Art Nouveau tour and were lucky enough to have Valentina for both. She gave us two hours on hour own for lunch then met us again for the second tour. It was a great day in Riga topped off with an evening at the Christmas Market.

Nice architectural tour of main city

Lovely walking tour of the City highlighting the architecture of the buildings and key points of interests with historic context. The tour was 2 hours and did not include the Cental Market as advertised.

Lovely introduction to Riga

Richard_W, Aug 2024

Riga is a beautiful city. We had no idea how much there is to see and how much lovely architecture exists in such a compact area in an around the old city. Our guide did exactly what we were hoping for. Not only did she acclimate us to the city itself, but she gave us a general history and a wonderful appreciation for the city's many charms.

Excellent Leisurely Tour

Nelly our guide, picked us up from our hotel and we had a most enjoyable and informative 2 hour stroll of the Old City. She explained everything in detail, answered all questions and generally looked after us like an old friend showing us around her town.

Excellent walking tour 👌 !

Un très bon moment de partage

Anastasia est passionnée par l’Art Nouveau, sait captiver son public et se mettre à son écoute. Très belle découverte d’un pan de l’architecture de Riga mais aussi de son histoire. Un très bon moment de partage.
