Bicycle Tour of Riga

Combine exercise and tourism on this bicycle tour of Riga. We'll cycle through this World Heritage Centre and view its main monuments.

Description

At the designated time, we'll meet on Pils Street with your bicycles. Prepare to explore Latvia's capital city by bike.

We will cover a total of 11 kilometres (6.8 miles), cycling through the streets and parks of Riga's historical centre. The tour will uncover the city's past and present, alongside curiosities regarding its most emblematic buildings.

As we cycle, we will see Riga's Freedom Monument, the Great Choral Synagogue, the skyscraper known as Stalin's Birthday Cake, and the central market, among others. Multiple stops will be made for photo opportunities.

We will also explore Riga's Russian district, known as Maskavas Forštate. This area is distinguished by wooden houses, cobbled streets, and Soviet architecture, contrasting sharply with the medieval style of the historical centre. It is a must-visit.

After a two-hour route, the bicycle tour of Riga will conclude at the same location where we began.
