Perfect start to Riga
"We decided to do this tour right at the beginning of our trip. It was perfect. Janis told us a lot about the history and answered all of our questions. We tried traditional foods and drinks. He showed us bars where locals go, some old fashioned and even modern food spots. I highly recommend the tour with Janis."
"We had a wonderful food tour with Janis! He did a great job of talking about the foods as well as explaining the history of Latvia and more so Riga. He was easy to communicate with prior to the tour and was able to work around our allergen needs (gluten free). We highly recommend scheduling a food tour with Janis!"
"This tour with Margita was one of the highlights of our stay in Riga. She brought real depth and history to it so the places we went were special, and not the same places that \"everybody else\" goes.
Well done Margita you one of the best tour guides we have been with."
