Hi! I'm Laura and Riga is my hometown, my office and the subject of my studies. Guiding tours is the best way to share my love for my city, its people, culture, history, nature, architecture and gastronomy. I'm always learning and improving. I got a bachelor's and master's degree in history of art and culture but I'm continuing to specialise in architecture and restoration. The best thing about my job is meeting you - people from all around the world. I love to see my country from the point of view of my clients while I share my knowledge about Riga and Latvia. Latvia is a small country but is has so much to offer! We have spectacular architecture, green parks, and flourishing cultural life. There are picturesque forests, refreshing lakes, and a breathtaking 500 km long coastline with white-sand beaches and tiny fishing villages. The tours I've listed is just a glimpse into the experiences that you can get in Riga and Latvia. Feel free to contact me to customise a tour for you. I look forward to meeting you in Riga! All the best, Laura Licensed Riga guide Bachelor's and Master's degree in Art History, working on the PhD now Specialising in architecture and heritage protection (6 months internship in the UNESCO Office of Florence, 12 months internship in a restoration workshop) Owner of a tourism agency in Riga, operating in all three Baltic States Driving license

    Laura was a wonderful, thoughtful, knowledgeable guide. She spoke excellent English and did a wonderful job introducing us to Riga. She was friendly and taught us a lot about the history and life of Latvians. I would highly recommend her.

    This was our second tour with Laura and just like the first one was amazing. We had a lovely day and the hike through the bogs at the national park was truly special. We have visited many countries and done many tours and we all agree this one ranks near the very top. It was a great introduction to the beautiful countryside of Latvia.

    Laura was a terrific guide. Her tour was the perfect blend of information to give us a great overview of the architecture and culture of Riga. She was also very accommodating to our family as one of us has mobility issues. We have had many tour guides over the years and she is definitely one of our favorites. I would not hesitate to recommend her to friends and family.

    Laura was a terrific guide who was very knowledgeable about Riga and its history, architecture, and willingly shared her personal experience growing up in Riga while under Soviet control. She was accommodating to our needs and made our time in Riga a magical experience. We will certainly add Riga to our "return" list as we only had a short time as a cruise stop. We highly...
