Itinerar

  1. Riga

    1 h 30 min

    Your day begins with a comfortable drive from Riga in an air-conditioned minibus. We drive east, watching the flat plains give way to rolling hills and pine forest. I'll share stories about the Gauja Valley, the Livonian Order, and why this region feels like a different country.

  2. Cesis

    45 min

    Artisan Bread Maker

    A hands-on visit to a traditional Latvian bread maker. Tour the bakery, learn about dark rye bread's sacred place in Latvian culture, and taste it warm from the oven.

  3. Cesis Medieval Castle

    2 ore Intrarea inclusă

    A walk through old Cesis, then into the medieval Livonian Order castle. You explore the towers by candlelight with a lantern in your hand, the way it would have been in the 13th century, not under museum floodlights.

  4. Cesis

    o oră

    Lunch in Cesis

    Relaxed lunch at a local Latvian cafeteria. Hearty, traditional food at local prices. You pay directly, I'll guide you through the menu.

  5. Castle Of The Livonian Order In Sigulda

    30 min Intrarea inclusă

    We then visit a local brewery, where you’ll learn about Latvian brewing traditions and enjoy a tasting before the drive back to Riga.

  6. Sigulda New Castle

    30 min Intrarea inclusă

    The atmospheric ruins of medieval Sigulda Castle and the neighbouring New Castle museum with excellent exhibits on the region's history.

  7. Gauja National Park

    15 min

    A quick stop at the famous photography vantage point. Spectacular in any season, extraordinary in autumn.

  8. Turaida Castle

    1 h 30 min Intrarea inclusă

    Red-brick Turaida Castle from the 13th century, looking out over the Gauja from its hillside. We climb the tower for the view, walk the sculpture garden, and visit the old wooden church and the restored folk buildings on the estate. This is where I’d slow the pace if we could, the late-afternoon light on the valley is the quiet highlight of the day.

  9. Riga

    1 h 30 min

    Back in Riga by early evening, with a head full of castles, the taste of dark bread, and the feeling that you've seen a Latvia most visitors never discover.

Punct de întâlnire și preluare

Organizatorul preia toți participanții de la cazare sau din locurile de mai jos.

Locuri de preluare

  • Grand Hotel Kempinski Riga

Please arrive 10 minutes before the 8:30 AM departure. Look for a minibus with the company's name displayed on the dashboard at your chosen meeting point — either Triangula Bastion or Grand Hotel Kempinski Riga. Your guide will have the booking list and will call your name.

Hotel pickup is available for most central Riga hotels with bus-accessible parking; let us know where you’re staying and we’ll confirm.

If you are running late, call us so we can hold the group.

Please note: Riga Old Town's narrow cobbled streets are closed to larger vehicles, which is why we use these two easy-access pickup points nearby rather than direct hotel pickup.
