Tour Details

After meeting at the Freedom Monument, we'll enter the heart of the old town of Latvia's capital. The private tour of Riga will commence.

We will first explore the 13th century Town Hall Square, home to the iconic Casa de los Cabezas Negras (House of the Black Heads). Information about its naming and commissioning will be shared during our visit.

Next, we’ll pass by St. Peter's Church, notable for its historical reconstructions and recognized for its tower as one of the best viewpoints in Riga. We will also view the Three Brothers, which highlight the architectural styles of the Baltic countries.

Our next stop will be the Cathedral of St. James, an example of Gothic red brick architecture, followed by the Swedish Gate, the last remaining entrance of Riga's original city wall.
