Chilly tour! - An excellent introduction to our stay in Riga, even though in sub-zero and snowy conditions! Led by an engaging and enthusiastic guide who was concerned we were as suitably warm as we could be, I would recommend this at any early stage of a visit to this lovely old town.

10/10 - I recently visited the Riga Tourist Information Centre and found it to be an invaluable resource for exploring the city. The staff were exceptionally friendly and provided detailed information on various attractions, events, and dining options. They offered insightful recommendations tailored to my interests, which greatly enhanced my experience in Riga. The centre also provided a variety of informative brochures and maps, making navigation around the city straightforward. I highly recommend stopping by the Riga Tourist Information Centre at the beginning of your trip to make the most of your visit.
