Riga : Historische Kanalrundfahrt mit Audioguide

The boat ride and guide itself were ok. However, we were VERY annoyed because the Viator listing stated that there were SIX different places that we could actually START the cruise. We reached out to the vendor three times and were told every time that we actually had to start the cruise at their main dock, which is NOT in a convenient location! So we walked 30 minutes from where we were (central market) to get to the main dock! Then, on OUR tour, the boat actually stopped to pick a couple of people up FROM the Central Market, where we had been!! So WHY did the vendor repeatedly say we could not get on there?!? (of course then we had to walk 30 minutes BACK also! In addition, the listing clearly stated that we would receive a "welcome drink" on board, but of course it was NEVER offered (but they had them for sale!?!) I would advise going with the other company offering tours.

Nice short circular trip for a reasonable price along the canal and out onto the river. Just double check where you need to pick it up from. It’s not clear when booking.

Informative tour with real people from the city! Loved the sites and was able to stay dry even in the rain.

50-minute tour on the inner canal of Riga and also on the Daugava river. The passage through the parks is beautiful, the somewhat dilapidated scenery behind the train station and the general market is less beautiful, before re-entering the river, but that's how it is...you had to pass through there if you want to do both things. For 9 euros, it was worth it!

Amazing experience! This should be your first ride when visiting Riga.

A cosy and beautiful trip, we sailed late in the evening and got the sunset with, the skipper informed during the trip and there was also a speaker who told during the trip.

There are blankets that are provided in the boat, but I would suggest to bring a jacket because the wind of the water can be chilly.

The price for this tour was just right. Unfortunately, we arrived late. However, the tour company was awesome. We sat for a bit, had a drink and the tour company arranged for a tour just for us. The tour guide was fantastic. He was very friendly and when we finally arrived to the Daugava river, he even gave us other cool information about the city and fun facts about Latvia. Once again, I would recommend this tour and company to others. It was outstanding.

Fun and beautiful cruise through Riga. Lovely with an open boat, nice with that warm weather! Friendly skipper.

The boat ride was so nice and scenic even on a cloudy day, our captain was friendly and happy and the audio guide was entertaining! We got the roofless boat which was a plus for us because the views and pictures were better, we were close to the water and felt the nice breeze. Definitely good value for money!
