Latvia · OLD TOWN WALKING TOURS
The Old Town is small enough to cross in twenty minutes and dense enough to fill three guided hours. These 8 walks differ on group size, price and how far past the House of the Blackheads they go — the first is the classic for a reason.

“We had a short time in Riga. We felt that Lina's tour gave us the biggest bang for our buck. It was thorough with lots of historical information. After the tour, we went back to a couple of museums that she had pointed out. Lina recommended a local restaurant for lunch. Although we only had 24 hours in Riga, with Lina's private tour we made the most of it.”
Best of Riga Old Town walking tour with Inga: hotel pickup, small private group, photo stops at landmarks, 90 minutes for $24.
“I enjoyed my time with Inga as we explored Riga. I had done a group tour earlier which was quite large and felt some info got lost in the big group. The personalised experience meant that Inga could show me other things not necessarily covered on the standard free tour and it felt more like friends going for a stroll and catching up with me getting alot of information that I hadnt before. I would recommend Inga for your old town Riga tour”
