Denne sovjetiske Riga tur giver et overbevisende syn på livet under besættelse, grundlagt i minderne om dem, der levede det. Vores lokale guider bruger vigtige landemærker i byens centrum, såsom det imponerende lettiske riflemansmonument og den berygtede KGB "Corner House", for at dele personlige beretninger og menneskelige historier om overlevelse, stille modstand og kampen for at opretholde den lettiske identitet lige her i hjertet af Riga. Turen giver en nuanceret forståelse af den tunge skygge, som det sovjetiske regime kastede, og den modstandsdygtighed, som folket viste, indtil uafhængigheden blev genvundet.

Mareks was wonderful! He.was full of fascinating stories of the.time, pointed out locations, buildings, life and society of the era. Also the social structure, the historical events of the.time. he English was excellent and easy to understand. I had studied European history but he made everything more human. An excellent tour and well worth the time and money!
What a great tour! We slowly walked through the Old Town and then across to the Art Nouveau district while our guide pointed out landmarks from the Soviet era and shared with us both Latvian history and anecdotes from his family’s history. We’d easily go back for another couple hours.
We had an extraordinary guide, Emil, who spent two years guiding us not through the difficult Soviet history of Riga, but also a broader history of Riga and Latvia. He enhanced the Soviet history with the personal stories of his family. Our two hours flew by with him and we hardly noticed the distances we covered in that time. He finished with a stop at the Russian Embassy and us wishing we could have two more hours as the tour was that good.
This was an amazing private tour with Ulricha. She was so kind, friendly, and patient…but most of all knowledgeable and bringing in her own experiences! We walked all around the city and learned lots of history. She then gave us directions for touring on our own with a restaurant recommendation that was delicious. Highly recommend!!!!
Interesting and informative. Guide was on time and easily understood. Would highly recommend tour Answered all of our questions
Excellent history walk with this lovely young man, I can’t remember his name. Fascinating details about Latvia under communism illuminated with stories from his parents and grandparents/truly remarkable.
Guide was incredibly knowledgeable and adjusted his information based on our interests and knowledge. Highly engaging. Would highly recommend.
Our guide was EXCELLENT! His knowledge of the history of Riga was anwesome and he had many personal stories that included his parents and grandparents experiences of living in Riga during Soviet rule. There were three of us on the tour and we learned so much more than the larger groups we encountered. We are so glad we this tour!
Guide Edvards explained the Soviet Era history of Riga very well to us, accessible to the layman, but not dumbed down. Especially interesting was the history of several monuments and buildings, which over their existence were redefined in their meaning according to the ideology of the government, such as transforming a church into a a planetarium. I definitely recommend. We had a splendid tour!
Really informative, personalized, knowledgeable and interesting experience. Highly recommend our guide.
