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!

    Fabulous tour with a knowledgeable guide. She packed in so much information in the 1.5hrs, I learnt so much about the old town, the buildings, the changes over the years, the stories associated with the statues & the old town wall too.

    Brilliant walking tour. Our guide was knowledgeable, friendly, and explained the history behind Riga’s most significant buildings really well. The hidden gems she showed us were a lovely bonus too. Highly recommend.

    We were a small group of 4 people. The tour felt very rushed as we were walking in the walking stride. No time to take a picture. Sometimes something less is more! For my taste, the guide was too masterful ("did you pay attention?") and quite dry in her remarks.

  • A must do whilst visiting Riga
