Very Enjoyable Walking Tour - Diana did a very fine job of introducing us to the excellent art nouveau architecture of old town Riga. She was articulate and engaging, covering a lot of ground, literally and figuratively in a short amount of time. We had a sudden brief downpour and she promptly adjusted her talk to accommodate our 'downtime' under a portico while we waited for it to stop - the sign of an experienced guide. I would highly recommend the tour to other visitors.

Another side of Riga that should not be missed - This tour was even more comprehensive than I expected. We started in the old city and ended up on 'art nouveau row'. We learned about the architects and the history of Riga as well as the types of art nouveau. There are so many buildings here that it is hard to decide which style you like the best.

Lovely, knowledgeable guide and amazing architecture! - A really fascinating and in-depth tour across Riga's amazing art nouveau architecture and building facades. Our guide was really charming and extremely knowledgeable. It's quite long, but it's definitely worth it!

Bustling Riga. - Of the three Baltic states, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania, we found the capital of Latvia, Riga, the most interesting. I'd definitely recommend a visit - there's lots to see, as it's a bustling city with Bolt taxis to get you around to see the place.

Fun and informative Art Nouveau tour. - Our guide was friendly and unhurried. She shared the knowledge in a fun way. She knew a lot about the general history of Latvia, but especially about the architecture of Riga. In particular, about Art Nouveau. After all, that was what we booked the tour for!

Great Art Nouveau Tour - We had a great tour with Gunta. She not only showed us the Art Niveau Highlights of Riga, but also what led to it.

Guta was a fantastic... - Guta was a fantastic guide! She was very knowledgeable and passionate about the Art Nouveau architecture in Riga. She even offered to take us through the Riga Central Market afterwards because the tour we had arranged canceled at the last minute.

A great experience! - An excellent tour by Guna of the best art nouveau examples in Riga, particularly along Alberta Street. Guna was very knowledgeable on all aspects, she also told us about the life of a Latvian and how things had changed over the years. I would highly recommend.

Disappointing - The tour didn't take place at all, but the very short notice cancellation didn't reach us, so we waited at the meeting point for nothing. Very poor communication
