Great place to rent kayaks. Reasonable price, good vines from the staff, and good recommendations in the route. Riga is a beautiful city to see by kayak. They are doubles, which I didn’t know beforehand, but for a larger group, with varying ability levels, that was actually a good idea. Highly recommend.
Thank you! We really appreciate your feedback.
We booked online, the staff was kind and helpful, quick to serve us. The kayak was in perfect condition, and the tour was pleasant and easy, in two hours
Easy to book, the guys were very friendly and gave me everything I needed… a quick safety chat and equipment handed over, then some advice on some good routes. I went through the canal, then back along the river. Not many big boats so was easy to navigate and gave a brilliant new perspective of the city.
Thank you so much for your review! :)
Very nice view from the river! Start in the small river is easy and very nice, if you come into the big river it‘s not easy to handle the SUP. We reccomwnd it not for kids under 15 years. It‘s worth of course but not a easy going family activity.
Thank you, Ckswitz, for your review!
A great experience relaxing along the river. The host was really helpful and let us have the boards as long as we liked.
Thank you for the review, we really appreciate it.
I never thought kayaking would be this fun. It was awesome experience for me. I had a great time with my friends. Definitely will go again soon. Hats off to the Adventure Trips for their amazing service !
Everything was of top standard, nothing too much trouble. It's my first experience and that's was good. Quality service provided by advaita adventures.😍🔥
Amazing views which I put in my ig. Great time spent with my family. I had a lot of fun and enjoyed the ride with sup boards.
