Informative walking tour with great guide - We had a very informative and entertaining 2 hour evening tour with our friendly guide Ilze. She brought us to Riga with a lot of knowledge, wonderful stories and a lot of passion. Your tips have given us a great time in a very nice city in the following 2 days. Thank you again, dear Ilze and continue to be so cheerful and enthusiastic.

Gem of a guide - Ilze is a gem. Such smooth coordination pre tour as well. Going out of her way giving weather updates & arranging a car because walking was difficult in the snow. Will definitely booking your Riga tours with her

Great! - Definitely the best way to see the town, and much better when not in a large group so you get the full attention of your guide. Ilze was wonderful - attentive, patient and full of local knowledge. You also get collected at your hotel if you prefer which was very convenient. Would highly recommend!

Fantastic - My husband was originally born in Riga, Latvia and the country is beautiful. Ilze Karlsone had done her homework before we arrived and found his parents home where they lived. She also found the farm where his mother was born and reared. Ilze is the best person to utilize and make sure you have an informative and fun tour of this wonderful place. By the way we first went in 2011, then 2014. This review only allowed me to use March 2020 and we did not go then due to the pandemic.
