Free Walking Tours through the Alternative Riga

What an amazing tour, full of information, the guide Lelde is brilliant and the group really interesting with many nationalities.Very rich experience I advise everyone to have it.the Story of Riga, historical, political, human informatiom .Excellent Guru Tours.I will definetely have other ones while in Latvia.

We had an excellent tour with Ulrika today. Lots of facts and information we didn't know about Latvia. She told us a really great canteen to eat in, Lido. Cheap. Authentic, and delicious. Thanks

Really enjoyed this tour and getting to see some places of Riga that I would not have visited otherwise. Learnt a lot about Latvian history and culture!

Very informative, the alternative your gave a thorough exploration of the non tourist area of Riga and gave insight into the history of the culture of the city, from food, to socio-economic statuses and why parts of the city are like how they are today. Would throughly recommended this tour as well as the old tour and we are very glad we did both. We’d like to thank Kaspas very much, we left feeling like we had learnt a lot.

Thank you Ulrika (probably not spelled correctly so I am sorry!) For a really interesting and thought provoking tour. Your knowledge and love of your home city made you a wonderful storyteller and guide and we enjoyed you showing us round very much. Lisa

It was very interesting and authentic tour. I really enjoyed, although the bad weather. Very intensive, but also nice to get a bit of history and culture of Latvia.

Nice concept, relaxed pace, informative, helpful and fun guide. Would definitely recommend it

Sehr informativ und unterhaltsam. Ein sehr sympathischer und offener Guide.

Kaspers has great charisma, he shared with us many interesting facts about Riga and Latvia. Besides that he took us to places which normally you cannot find out as a traveler in the first days of the trip. Over all was a really nice experience!

It was highly informative, the young lady guide was knowledgeable and friendly. Excellent tour. Thank you.

Die Tour abseits der Touristenströme war erfrischend und sehr informativ. Marek selbst ist top, die Nr. 2 meiner langjährigen Städtetourerfahrung (nur Hannes in Wien war noch einen Ticken origineller). Marek ist sehr engagiert, extrem humorvoll und meinungsstark. Sehr empfehlenswert!

Wonderful tour. Mareks is the best: he's knowledgeable, and an all-around good guy. 5-star tour

Just excellent. Important, interesting information on this complicated, fascinating city. Take this tour if you want to understand Riga. Fantastic. Thank you, Emils.

Genial! Estupendo! Edward tiene todo el conocimiento al ser historiador y la forma en que narra la historia es muy interesante! Todo lo que comparte y el recorrido es perfecto! Es de los guías a los que la personas persiguen mientras caminan para aprovechar todo el conocimiento que tienen y toda la información que pueden compartir. Súper útil y la visión que nos deja de Riga estuvo increíble!

Nice tour.

Die andere Tour, abseits der unter Overtourism leidenden, eher unauthentisch wirkenden Altstadt, zu authentischen Orten abseits der Touristenströme, zu dem Zentralmarkt, mit Zeit zum Verkosten, durchs "sowjetische Viertel" mit Hammer und Sichel, an die Synagoge, ein Ort der Erinnerung, auch an die vielen lettischen Retter, zuletzt zur Freiheitssäule. Liberté j'écris ton nom ... ein Guide mit Witz und viel Wissen. Empfehlenswert!

Eine tolle Tour für all jene, die Riga auch abseits der ausgetretenen Pfade der Altstadt kennenlernen wollen. Sehr kompetenter Guide, der mit vielen interessanten Informationen aufwarten könnte. Absolut empfehlenswert!

Great tour outside the tourist zone with a Latvian life focus.

Arthur er kunnskapsrik om Latvias lange historie og forteller om den på en pedagogisk måte underveis. Masse anekdoter blant alle fakta. En morsom og lærerik tur.

Edwards was the complete professional. He captivated the group and provided an amazing insight into how things are in your country. The perfect ambassador for your company

Very glad we did this tour. It’s a good complement to the old town Riga tour to see what was happening outside of the medieval city. Richard, our tour guide was great. Nice pace of sharing facts and personal views. Thanks for having great gurus.

Clear excellent and informative

Very different that the Old City tour.

It was a pleasure to walk around with this group guided by Arthur and to see a alternative side of Riga - I learned so much about historical and cultural aspects regarding russian and german occupation and the impact they still have until today.

Liga a as very knowledgeable, entertaining and kept a pace that was comfortable for everyone. She encouraged questions and was happy to answer questions unrelated to the tour as well. Than you
