4.00A great open top boat tour, very much helped by the beautiful weather! The trip was rearranged when someone called me out of the blue, and it was not confirmed by messages or email till the day before. The VIATOR voucher was not available to check. I was very worried we were not booked.
Great boat trip!

Relaxing Canal Cruise Through Riga – Scenic & Good Value

4.00A unique and relaxing way to see parts of Riga! The tour takes place on a charming old wooden canal boat and lasts almost an hour. On boarding, we were offered a choice of water, soft drink, beer, or sparkling wine, which was a nice touch. The ride itself was leisurely and peaceful—perfect for soaking in the views. Do bring warm clothes if the weather’s cool, as the boat is not fully enclosed. While it would have been even better with some commentary about the sights, it was still excellent value for money. Bonus tip: there’s a great restaurant right beside the boarding jetty for a bite before or after your trip.
