RIGA UNIQUE EXPERIENCE - Riga is a city with its own flavor blending its Germanic and Hanseatic roots with impregnations of its Russian neighbors.

Very Enjoyable Walking Tour - Diana did a very fine job of introducing us to the excellent art nouveau architecture of old town Riga. She was articulate and engaging, covering a lot of ground, literally and figuratively in a short amount of time. We had a sudden brief downpour and she promptly adjusted her talk to accommodate our 'downtime' under a portico while we waited for it to stop - the sign of an experienced guide. I would highly recommend the tour to other visitors.

Another side of Riga that should not be missed - This tour was even more comprehensive than I expected. We started in the old city and ended up on 'art nouveau row'. We learned about the architects and the history of Riga as well as the types of art nouveau. There are so many buildings here that it is hard to decide which style you like the best.

Lovely, knowledgeable guide and amazing architecture! - A really fascinating and in-depth tour across Riga's amazing art nouveau architecture and building facades. Our guide was really charming and extremely knowledgeable. It's quite long, but it's definitely worth it!

Bustling Riga. - Of the three Baltic states, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania, we found the capital of Latvia, Riga, the most interesting. I'd definitely recommend a visit - there's lots to see, as it's a bustling city with Bolt taxis to get you around to see the place.

Extraordinary visit - Anna introduced us to the history and architecture of Riga city center with great enthusiasm and precision. We felt her passion and she captivated our attention throughout the visit. Many thanks for this extraordinary visit.

Taken advantage of good nature - We signed up for a private tour, but they had planned to add another couple and did not inform us until day before. They did ask our permission and dropped the €70 fuel fee. We agreed because we were helping out another couple. When they admitted this was know for a while I feel taken advantage of. If I had know it would not be private I would not have agreed to a charge of over €300.

Riga Trips guide did not show up - We feel let down by Riga Trips as the guide did not show up on the date booked. We did not receive a cancellation email either, Spam folder also checked. The company's management shot themselves in a foot by claiming the tour has been rearranged in two days, on Sunday, when we called following the no show-up. The other people also waiting for the tour were told the IT systems failed them, the tour was closed for booking. This is inconsistent with the initial explanation that the cancellation emails were sent to 8 clients, why would you send an email if IT system does not allow to book it and where would you get an email from. The communication following the review was terrible and made things even worse for them. This is not a customer oriented company you can count on.

Guide never showed up. - Guide never showed up. Very disappointing. No communication either. Don’t waste your time. We did a self guided free tour instead.

Disappointing - The tour didn't take place at all, but the very short notice cancellation didn't reach us, so we waited at the meeting point for nothing. Very poor communication
