Latvian cuisine is exquisite and this is the perfect tour to discover it. We went around Rīga's central market with Liga, who introduced us to many flavours our palates had never tasted before: pickled veggies, hearty soups, delicious pastries. She made sure we were following all the sanitary requirements and we felt super safe with her. We couldn't recommend this tour enough. This is an experience for all senses since colours also invade you from all around. Great gourmet experience overall. Thanks Liga!

The forests in Gauja river valley and up on the bank are brreathtakingly beautiful. And the stairs make it relatively easy to go there.

We loved our day visit to Sigulda. It was around an hour by train from Riga. Such a pretty town, spotlessly clean and very quiet in Feb but plenty to see and do. The Lutheran Church looked a picture infront of the frozen pond with clear blue skies above. The Livonian Castle was interesting with great views across the valley to Krimulda Manor and Turaida Castle. Plenty of places to get lunch and a drink. One of the prettiest railway stations I have seen and lovely and warm whilst we waited for the train home. If you want to go outside of Riga this is a great choice.

Let’s be honest though- chances are you are there for reasons other than the history of the wine. We know, we get it. We’ll just throw some history in there to appease the intellectuals- really; we’re just all about the wine. This is a great activity to try some new flavors and relax with those you are closest to. Kick back and relax and let your worries melt away as we bring you some of the best wines in the country. We will teach you all about the different varieties and we’ll let your senses go wild. There are five basic steps in wine tasting: color, swirl, smell, taste, and savor. Don’t worry though if you skip a couple steps and go straight to the gulping- your secret is safe with us.

this is NOT a tour, unlike other kayaking tours in Riga, it is a kayak rental. To call it a tour, it should be guided but it was not, we were just left with kayaks to find the way on our own. If you would like to take a kayaking TOUR, book with other providers. Not very safe to left us alone on a water. But it was fun and nice anyway

We had a lot of private guides in our holidays around the world, in almost 20 countries and every time we had at least two or three of them. Harijs, our today's guide, was for sure one of the best. Warm, friendly, even thrilled to show us Riga and to explain us a lot of very interesting stories and anecdotes. Four and half hours passed in a while. He speaks a perfect English and was always helpful to answer a lot of questions. If you are a family o a small group of friends, Harijs is the perfect guide to introduce you to Riga beauties. Thank you for your comprehensive and professional job!
