Itinerary

90 min

My name is Riga. I was born more than eight centuries ago at the Daugava River and since then I have become much more beautiful and attractive. My father was Bishop Albert of Livonia and I was happy with it, but then came a lot of foreigners, who wanted to conquer my heart. However, I managed to stay strong and proud. Listen to my name again – Ri-ga. It sounds like music, like a promise, like a secret. Come and discover it!

Amazing diodes walking tour

Out guide was absolutely phenomenal!! Was so interesting. I was utterly captivated by everything she said. By far the best guided walking tour I have ever done in my life!!! Told some personal stories too and you could tell everyone in our group was spellbound…. Only negative was actually trying to find exactly where we were to meet our guide in the town hall square. We nearly gave up as couldn’t see any umbrella or canapé……

Overview of Riga, Latvia

We took a 2 hour private walking tour of Riga with a knowledgeable guide. It was at a pace that was easy and the guide was very open to our many questions. The walking tour helped us identity places that we wanted to go back and explore in detail (eg; the Riga Cathedral). Totally worth the reasonable per head cost
