Such a great day out! - We had such a brilliant day! Our guide was super friendly and knowledgable. The Hill of Crosses is so worth a visit, and another country ticked off! Other stops were great too with a lovely lunch stop. Would definitely recommend this trip!

Interesting and eclectic cultural tour - Enjoyed this trip. This is more than a trip to the Hill of crosses but more of history and information about Latvia and its culture with numerous stops and eclectic experiences, including some authentic Latvian balsam.

Ilse was a fabulous & passionate guide, best tour I have been on! - Fabulous trip, I highly recommend it for anybody spending a couple of days in Riga. Ilse was a fabulous guide, poured so much love and passion into the tour. We got sang to, shown some fabulous spots and dined at the restaurant that she brought us to. Book it! You won’t regret it.
