Super good experience. Our hiking buddy was local and had a great deal of knowledge about the city. Architecture, history, etc. We got to know the city in a completely different way than we would have done alone. Got to see the "back" of the city, the sides that tourists are not always able to discover for themselves. Highly recommended!

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.

Fun & Informative!

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.
