Discover Riga from both the water and its most authentic local market in this unique experience with a live guide accompanying you throughout the entire tour.
Begin with a scenic 30-minute boat ride along the Riga Canal from Andrejosta to Riga Central Market. Unlike standard boat tours with audio guides, your professional guide will stay with you during the boat ride, market visit, and return cruise, sharing stories and local insights along the way.
At Riga Central Market, one of Europe’s largest and most authentic markets, explore the lively pavilions, learn about Latvian food traditions, and enjoy tastings of local specialties, including hemp products, locally produced cheese, and Latvian craft beer.
After approximately 1 hour at the market, return by boat to Andrejosta together with your guide.
