Full description
Our Old Riga Free Tour is a great way to discover the classical sights of Riga and learn about the rich history of this magnificent city, dating back to its foundation in 1201. We not only visit the main sites that Old Riga has to offer but also lead you to areas of the Old Town usually ignored or missed by traditional tours.
As always, our entertaining guides will be on hand to bring you through the numerous centuries and layers of history. Yet we aim to also inform you about what the Old Town is like for residents today. Who lives here now? What is the function of the historical centre in a contemporary context?
