      Lovely, knowledgeable guide

      "Margita gets the highest marks for her private tour. She is justly proud of her city and country. The hit of the afternoon for us was a visit to the wonderful Latvian National Library. It is beautiful and full of exhibits. Margita shared some wonderful personal stories about the library and she really had to pull us away or we would have spent the whole day there. We then took the bus to the market because it was raining and had tasted some local dishes. We are in our late 70s and fit and the pace was fine. If the weather had been better we could have easily walked as Riga is flat. We came away with a very positive view and lots of suggestions on how to spend the rest of our visit."
