Welcome to join us - it will be both - informative and fun.
Our Daily Bike Tours explore the historic suburbs of Riga, covering the most interesting sections of Riga. The bike tour rides along the river before entering the Moscow district. The area which became the Jewish ghetto during WWII is one of the most interesting areas in Riga. We then explore the trendy Central district to find some nice bars and cafes and street art. These tours ride off the tourist route, showing a different, more realistic side of Riga, from the comfortable saddle of a city bike.
If you’re looking for an engaging and informative tour that covers the complex history of Riga but also explores what it is like to live here today, then this is the tour for you.
