Fun, passionate, and genuine - that’s me, your local guide Emīls! I’m originally from a small Latvian town and have lived in Riga since 2014. I love storytelling, showing my favorite hidden spots in Riga and across Latvia, and sharing plenty of laughs along the way. If you’re looking for a joyful and authentic experience, I’d be happy to be your guide. My hope is that you’ll leave not only with photos, but with a little piece of Latvia in your heart.

June 2026Thank you, Sara, for the wonderful feedback! It was a beautiful day, and I hope to see you in Latvia once again. All the best to you and your family!
This excursion was a highlight of our time in the Baltics. It was great to spend the day outside of the city, particularly given Emils unique knowledge of the area. Rundale Palace was even more impressive than I expected, with fantastic history and architecture. Emils also shared a lot of helpful information on Riga, that we were able to put to use when we were back in...
