      Fabulous Tour

      "I admit we knew nothing about Riga when I originally decided to visit. While doing my research, I read about the Art Nouveau influence and decided we needed to see more. Margita's tour was excellent. She is very knowledgeable and personable. She's so enthusiastic and her love for her city really comes across. The pace was excellent and we didn't feel rushed. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who is visiting Riga. "

      Thanks Margita!!

      "We had a wonderful time with Margarita in Riga. She gave us a fascinating introduction to the city’s Art Nouveau architecture, explaining everything with great knowledge, enthusiasm and a genuine love for Riga and its artistic heritage. She was extremely friendly and welcoming, and even invited us for a coffee, which was a lovely and very personal touch. We really enjoyed spending time with her and felt that we discovered Riga through the eyes of someone who truly loves her city. Thank you, Margarita, for such an enjoyable and memorable experience. We highly recommend her!"
