5.00We walked all around the Old Town. Armands was a great guide, answering all our questions across a range of subjects and responding to our interests. Then into the car for a tour of the Art Nouveau quarter, before finishing in the Food Market. One-on-one attention.
Exciting Riga

5.00thanks to Armands and his enthusiastic commentary we saw and admired by foot the old town and art nouveau district. in his car we got a good overview, and walked through the amazing Central Market. He also recommended our two dinner restaurants: Peterkaili and Gutenberg, nice food and lovely interiors. if you have limited time to see Riga, take this trip!
Top Notch Tour!

5.00Armands is an excellent tour guide. The tour was informative and a great chance to see Riga outside Old Town. He has extensive knowledge of the social, economic, and geopolitical environment of Riga and Latvia and an excellent command of the English language. You're in for a treat on his tour!
