Excellent walking Tour of Riga - Guna is an excellent guide. She explained the complicated history of Latvia very eloquently and told the group many interesting facts and stories. I don’t want to share them but would recommend you book a walking tour with her so you get them first hand. I thoroughly enjoyed getting to know Riga. Thank you.
