Riga Highlights Walking Tour

We met Agrita at our hotel. She was a delight from the start. Very friendly and eager to share the sights of Riga with enthusiasm. The 4 hours we spent with her flew by. She was most knowledgeable and shared many personal touches. Highly recommend her for this tour!!

Great tour, great guide. Highly recommended for the first full day of your stay in Riga. Agrita is very cheerful and loves sharing the history of Riga, tips for cultural experiences from a fancy Opera to good cheap local restaurants, and the modern social and political milieu. She'll point you in the right direction whether your interests are castles and churches, art and architecture, bars and nightlife or a warm cozy bowl of solyanka :)

Tours by locals does it again.! Agrita was a fabulous tour guide. She was super informative and shared her life in Riga and gave us a real insight into the country and its history. Riga is such a beautiful city and seeing it through Agrita’s eyes made it come to life. The real bonus was making a new friend in another part of the world.

Thoroughly enjoyable guided tour with Agrita. If you’re interested in history, geography, politics and Latvian traditions and customs- Agrita will not disappoint. I found the tour highly informative and entertaining. We walked and talked all around Riga for 3 1/2 hours and time flew. A memorable day. Agrita’s English is absolutely perfect too. 😁

Firstly, we have booked several tours with this company, and all of them have been fantastic, with fabulous guides who obviously have a passion for their cities and countries. Agrita was our terrific guide during our day in Riga. We thoroughly enjoyed her insights and historical facts about Riga, as well as her knowledge of the different kinds of architecture in the city (I didn't know much about architecture before, but I found myself saying, "Oh, that's neoclassical," in the subsequent cities we visited!). This is a harder tour for younger kids (especially after having been on quite a few tours previous to this in other countries), so about halfway through, the 9-and 11-year old and their parents found a playground while we went on with the tour. We saw all the famous sights (House of the Blackheads, etc), tried Black Balsam, and learned about Flow. All in all a great adventure!

Agrita was a wonderful guide! She met us at the cruise ship and showed us all around Riga. She provided many interesting facts as she showed us the highlights of Riga. She was very friendly and kind - I'm sure you'll have a great experience if you book a tour with her.
