Latvia's capital Riga is a beautiful city, with a dramatic history and fascinating stories!
The Best of Riga Free Walking Tour is a journey through the city's story, from the medieval Old Town to the stunning Art Nouveau district. Starting from Alberta laukums,
where humans first settled in Riga 1,000 years ago, we discover St. Peter's Church and its rise from the ashes, the House of Blackheads and the world's first Christmas tree, the legendary
Cat House, magnificent Doma Cathedral, the Three Brothers and much more.
We then explore the early 20th century New Town, including Latvia's
beloved Freedom Monument, lovely Bastejkalns Park, and the famous Alberta iela gallery of Art Nouveau buildings.
