Old Town Historic Tour Riga - Excellent guide Marija really knew her history and showed us so many things we would ordinarily have missed. Excellent tour and excellent guide!

Lots of history in the beautiful old town - My friend and I thoroughly enjoyed our tour- we were the only two on it, so it was a private tour of the old town! We learned a lot about the city and the history of Latvia as well- our guide was extremely knowledgable and made some recommendations for places to stop in after the tour as well. This was a great way to see the Old town and learn about its history.

The tour took in many various buildings and churches which we would not have seen without the tour. A very enjoyable morning and a must for the curious tourist</p>

Informative, well organized and FREE ! - Every day at 11am at designated point there is a free walking tour of Riga in English/German and Latvian, covers all the main places of interest within the Old Town and at zero cost why would one not participate. A really good exercise in city hospitality, other capital cities take note!

The Old Town is charming, beautiful and very easy to walk through. This tour made our visit more enjoyable and we highly recommend it to anyone visiting Riga. Additionally, Maria told us about Riga's Art Nouveau architectural history and, had we know about that beforehand, we would've booked a tour with her to see that district.</p>

Not to be missed - We now take more walking tours as this is a much better way than a bus to familiarise yourselves with the layout and history of the town. The guide was excellent with a wealth of enthusiasm and local knowledge. It really did help us to learn about Riga and it was an excellent start to our stay.

She had terrific historical background information, knew her history and led us around parts of the city we never would have known about had we not signed up for this tour. Furthermore, she advised us on additional things to see/do during our stay for which we will be forever thankful. It made our visit to Riga, and we would happily suggest anyone visiting take a walking tour of the old town. It absolutely brings it to life!</p>

Nice place - Must visit area - especially the churches, shops and the bars. Nice place to be when the weather is nice. The streets give you nostalgic feelings. It is a little expensive though so try not to buy anything from there.

A lot of Art Nuveau - We enjoyed the walking tour in the old city together with our very kind guide. There is a lot of great old buildings and the guide spoke a lot about them and we’ll be able to recognize art nouveau for ever, but we would have liked a little more history and a few anecdotes about recent time too.
