Private Riga Shore Excursion with Transport

Overview

Take advantage of your cruise ship stop to explore the historic centre of Riga, a UNESCO World Heritage site, during a 4-hour private excursion. The programme combines a walking tour of the Old Town, filled with local legends and anecdotes, with visits to the Central Market and the Art Nouveau district. A private, air-conditioned vehicle is provided to optimise your travel and see the city from different perspectives, which would be impossible on foot within this timeframe. The itinerary is flexible and can be personalised according to your interests, such as prioritising wooden houses over the market, or including a coffee or beer break to soak up the local atmosphere. Bottled water is provided during the trip.
