Joel – May 6, 2018 – Verified booking
It was my 1st Lokafy tour & my guide, Marta's 1st time as a guide. She was wonderful & knew a lot about the architecture & cultural significance of the things we saw. She was very friendly & enthusiastic. She researched other destinations we did not have time for & showed me how to navigate a city new to me. And the weather was perfect: much warmer than I'd thought early May in Latvia would be.

Fatima – March 4, 2020 – Verified booking
It was good to experience the outskirts of Riga and have a bit of history of the country. Our driver picked us up on the dot from our hotel and offered to give us a short ride around the city (since we arrived the night before and were not able to have a city tour yet prior to this out of the city tour) and we instantly agreed.

I had walked around Old Town prior to Linda showing up so I was expecting going over the same things I had seen. Linda, who was superb, is an art major and was especially interested in Art Nouveu architecture, which Riga has lots of. We walked around looking at the buildings, while she also provided the history of others sites we were visiting. Excellent experience!!
