Canda was an amazing guide and gave me the perfect intro to this amazing city. Since I was the only one on my tour, we were able to customize it based on my interest, but her plan of what to show me was spot on, anyhow. I loved hearing about the different parts of history that are all combined to make Riga what it is today. I loved all the nuances that she pointed out in the architecture And how the city had come to the decisions as to what to do with each building. It was nice to stop for a traditional, sweet snack and coffee as well. Especially when the weather turned out to not be the best later on in the tour. And, as a great promoter of the city as a whole, she told me about other things that happened throughout the year that makes me want to come back again. I highly recommend this tour and this Tour Guide as a great intro to Riga!
