Tailor-made enjoyable tour - The castle is beautiful and the bunker is very interesting. The tour is tailor-made to suit our needs and wishes, and the tour guide is very nice. He also introduced an awesome restaurant and helped us in reservation. Very good service!

Ideal bit of Latvia - I booked this tour to get a taste of Latvia outside of Riga since I was only here for a few days. I was picked up on time in a clean and safe vehicle. The guide (Paul) was knowledgeable and happy to talk about any topic. I loved getting to see a bit of nature in the national park, some medieval history at the castle, and some Soviet history in the bunker. It was a good way to see a bunch of places with minimal time in the car. It is definitely worth booking this day trip with Allure!

A wonderful trip :) - Everything in this trip is wonderful. We had discovered the caves and the bunker. The tour to the bunker is also a must. It is so excited that the guide in the bunker shows the stories in the soviet times. It helps me know more about the country and the life they had had. I hope to go to Sigulda again.

Incredible Experience of Latvia’s Nature and History - The full day tour to Gauja, Turaida Castle, and the Soviet Bunker was incredible. We got to see beautiful nature at the park, a step back into medieval times at the Turaida castle, and, my favorite part of the tour, the unique and eery experience of walking through a near perfectly preserved (and huge) soviet bunker. It felt like going back behind the iron curtain. So many rooms and such a unique experience! Pauls, my guide, was outstnading; he was delightful, punctual, organized, and jubilant from start to finish. I’ve done dozens of tours through Viator, and this one was top shelf. Highly recommend.

Must escape from Riga city - We had absolutely stunning day with Paul, well planned And organised tour, can’t really wish for more! We had interesting and informative bunker tour together with other English speaking people inside the bunker we had a lunch( but that’s only available during the weekend ) . Also Paul told everything we wanted to know about Lettonia. We really appreciated that car was new and comfortable. Thank you AllureTours :)))
