Olga is a very knowledgeable guide and gave us an extremely interesting tour of Riga's old city. We enjoyed our time with her and learning about her life in Latvia.
Stacey R.United States
Olga was an absolutely amazing tour guide! We communicated very easily back and forth before our tour to customize our walk. Her knowledge of the area is incredible! We saw all the major sites and gained a great understanding of Riga. We decided on a private tour so that we could customize where we went and I highly recommend this option. Olga even took us into a restaurant so that we would know what local foods to order for lunch at the end of our tour. When we finished the walk Olga made sure that we knew how to get back to our ship. I highly recommend booking with Olga for this walk!!

What's not included
Other: Personal expenses. Important! If the docking port is Krievu Sala, or you arrive to the Airport, then transfers to/from the centre and a pass to the port are needed. It takes about 20-40 min extra time (depending on roads) one way in my minivan (in this case pls quote the price) or you can use shuttle buses and then we meet in the centre.
