Olga ensured our shore excursion was fantastic. We were able to see so many WW2 related sites and understand the history of this beautiful city with a tour that consisted of history and architechture. She maximized the time we had available and she was so knowledgeable and tailored the entire day to meet our needs. Highest recommendation for Olga.

Interesting tour, and Olga was quite knowledgeable. Latvia was quite a contrast to Lithuania and Estonia, and helped to paint a picture of the fall of the Soviet Union. For a good overall tour of the area, this tour is ideal.

Olga was a very charming and very accommodating guide.While we saw all the principal touristic sights of Riga she went out of her way to accommodate our interests. Highly recommended.

Olga is an absolutely exceptional guide. I am ever so grateful I had her for three of my tours. She is knowledgeable, confident, personable, generous, and gracious, as well as a very good driver. She always arrived early to pick me up at my hotel, and provided me an extended tour each day. Her rapport is easy and professional. Anyone who uses her services will be more than pleased, and leave with a greater understanding of the area toured, its historical and cultural background. I highly recommend Olga

Olga took our group of 3 couples on a tour of Riga yesterday with a focus on Jewish history in the area. We made a great choice by choosing Olga for our tour. Even though the weather was horrible (heavy rain, very windy) Olga didn't miss a beat. She was very knowledgeable and personable. We highly recommend Olga for your tour. The only negative comment I have would be Olga's vehicle...it was very tight for 7 adults, and the air conditioning and defrost didn't operate properly.

Olga is a lovely person and a reliable, knowledgeable and sensitive tour guide. I selected a tour with a Jewish theme. I saw and learned so many things I otherwise wouldn't have. Olga generously took me to a place that I requested that was not on the itinerary. She made it so I could spend more time with exhibits by bringing the car to me when parking was otherwise far. She took me to a fun Latvian restaurant with food that far exceeded my expectation. So glad to have met Olga. I highly recommend her.
