A day trip loaded with everything Jurmala has to offer. On this tour you'll enjoy a lot of the nature, like a hike on the boardwalk of Kemeri bog, some of the most beatiful beaches of the Baltic sea and a climb on Dzintari Forest park's 36 meter tall watchtower to see it all from above.

But it's not only nature that Jurmala has to offer - you'll get a guided tour through the most important sights of the town, including a visit to the Jurmala Open Air museum to see the story of a little fishing village becoming a resort known all around Europe.

On all of the sights you'll be accompanied by your guide who'll give you background information and some fun facts on everything you see. If you wish to have more alone time with the nature - that is not a problem as well. This tour is highly customisable, just let us know and we'll do our best to cater to your needs.

What To Expect

Kemeri National Park

The Kemeri Bog is more than 8000 years old and is one of the biggest bogs in Latvia. In 2013 a boardwalk was set up to create a route through the most beautiful parts of the bog. The boardwalk takes visitors to the world of moss, small pine trees, deep pools, tiny dark lakes, and the smell of wild rosemary. The astute visitor will notice the carnivorous plant of sundew, and a variety of birds – wood sandpipers, white wagtails, tree pipits, and also hear cranes further away. Those who prefer shorter strolls can take the short route (1.4 km), while those who choose the great arc (3.4 km) will be rewarded with the opportunity to climb an observation platform that offers a magnificent view of the bog from above.
