Additional Information
We conduct Everyday Bicycle Expeditions at 3:00pm that traverse the historical neighborhoods of Riga, visiting the most fascinating parts of the city.
The excursion begins with a cycling journey alongside the river, leading into the Moscow district. This locale, which transformed into the Jewish ghetto during World War II, ranks as one of the most intriguing areas in Riga. We subsequently tour the stylish Central district, home to attractive bars, cafes, and street art.
Our tours deviate from the beaten tourist path, offering an alternative, more truthful perspective of Riga, all from the agreeable seat of a city bicycle.

Outstanding Trip with James - We had a delightful 2 1/2 to 3 hours on a private bike tour with James checking out various Riga neighborhoods. James is a charming and knowledgable guide. As a long-time resident (20+ years), he has both the 'local' perspective as well as the ability to see Riga as an outsider would and was happy to share his personal perspective. That personal insight is why we generally prefer private tours, by the way, even if it costs more. In addition, the bikes were very comfortable and well-maintained, he provided helmets, and we felt safe riding both on- and off-road. And it meant we were able to cover a lot of ground quickly and easily.

Afternoon well spent - Good paced tour covering some interesting parts of the city you wouldn’t otherwise see. Good selection of well maintained bikes. Flat route, as you’d expect! Guide was knowledgeable, engaging and answered everyone’s questions. Would have been good to allow a few more photo opportunity stops en route as we cycled passed some building discussed. Would definitely recommend.

A great way to see Riga! - I enjoyed the inclusion of Jewish history within the history of Latvia. Bicycles were perfect for the distances enabling us to see quite a lot without getting in and out of a car. Arthur was quite knowledgeable.

Great tour with James - This was an absolutely fantastic way to see Riga. It really expanded our view of the city as we are only here for a short time. James was a wonderful guide. He is very knowledgeable, entertaining, and respectful of the subject matter. It is not super strenuous and ends with a relaxing cruise next to the river.
Highly recommended!!!
