A must for nature enthusiasts visiting Latvia - We had a fantastic day and learnt so much about the raised bog, floodplain forest, Lake Kanieris and the Gulf of Riga. Roland was the perfect guide with his great knowledge of nature, conservation and Latvia, as well as being enthusiastic and fun. It was an extremely hot day and Roland made sure we were coping ok with the heat and regularly offered us water to top up our water bottles. A few of the birds we saw included a Bittern, Great White Egret, and Marsh Harriers as well as plenty of different flora in the different habitats we visited. The Latvian picnic lunch was amazing. Traditional Latvian food and drink. Roland catered well for all the group, and as vegetarians we were not disappointed with the lunch he provided. We were in a small group of 7 and Roland took plenty of photos which he sent to us later that day. A truly amazing and enjoyable experience! If we return to Latvia, we will certainly take another tour with Roland.

A perfect day spent in nature - We highly recommend choosing green adventures outside Riga. We have seen hidden places we would not have if we were on our own. Our guide shared with us beautiful hikes and interesting facts about living in Latvia, and we even tasted local food and drinks. He surprised us with an alternative gluten-free bread for one of our friends. He was very professional in his guidance, always making sure we were having fun.

A beautiful day at Kemeri National Park - Was picked from my accommodation by my amazing guide Rolands who is a very nice guy and astonishingly knowledgeable as regards the ecosystem there. We walked through a part of the bog. The trail is not particularly hard as the wooden planks are well maintained. Halfway I was treated with local snacks and drinks. Then we proceeded to the Baltic coast where we had a very nice walk along the seaside.

A Trip Full of Great and Unexpected Surprises - What a completely brilliant day, from start to finish, we had with Roland exploring Kemeri National Park. Right from the outset Roland was brilliantly informative and knowledgable. We were picked up from our hotel in Riga which made for a nice and easy start to the day. On journey to the first site, The Bog, Roland was wonderfully enthusiastic and insightful about Latvian nature and culture. The Bog was awesome. What a great experience to be able to walk across part of the bog via the boardwalks and to hear about the formation of the bog, the conservation and the plant species throughout the seasons. Hearing the noisy cranes in the background was an added bonus (hope we see them next time). We then headed on to the Lagoon. What a treat to hear the booming Bitterns as we explored the lagoon and heard about the bird life and conservation. The floating walkway over the lagoon was great fun. My favourite lunch of our visit to Latvia was on this trip, where Roland shared traditional Latvian picnic food. I am pleased to have ticked the cottage cheese sweet off my to try list. It was strange but good. We then headed to the Gulf of Riga. What an amazing surprise. I had not imagined such a beautiful coastline with pristine white sands, a calm blue sea and the backdrop of a mossy pine forest. Pure magic. I am so glad that we took this trip and got to see a small part of Latvia’s countryside. It has given us to the taste to want to return and explore more. What really made this trip special was the wonderful knowledge of Roland, his great enthusiasm for Latvia’s nature and culture and his easy going and very good humoured approach. Latvia is truly a hidden gem with so much more to explore than Riga. Thank you Roland for a fab introduction to your beautiful country. We will be back!
