Overview

Step off the typical tourist trail and explore the authentic heart of Riga on this unique tour. Visit the iconic Central Market, housed in historic Zeppelin hangars, where you'll dive into the world of Latvian food - learn about the flavors that define Latvian cuisine. Then, head to the towering Academy of Sciences, one of Riga’s most striking Soviet-era landmarks, offering a fascinating look at the city’s history and culture from a different perspective. Next, we’ll visit the Latgale Suburb (formerly known as the Moscow Suburb), an area that’s been rebranded to reflect the evolving identity of Riga. This neighborhood offers a unique window into Latvia’s complex geopolitical history and the blending of cultures in the modern city. This is your chance to see the real Riga — a place where the past and present intertwine in ways few tourists ever experience!
