Bike Tour Review, Riga, Latvia. Fascinating Exploration of Riga
Starting in downtown Old City Riga, we hop on our bicycles in a small group with a guide and meander along cobblestone roads seeing architectural and cultural sights of history. Arriving at the Daugava River, we bicycle along a path past the flowing river and other Riga sites including the Central Market, the National Library, and then into the former Jewish Ghetto now known as Maskavas. Maskavas is where the ethnic Russian people live. Embody the feeling of yester-century as we ride through historical Riga.
Discover Riga Beer District 2019
Beer is in Latvians’ blood and brewing is part of their DNA. Thus, it is no surprise that the global craft brewery boom found some highly fertile soil in Latvia.
Portentously, the Riga Beer District is graced by three historical breweries: Kimmel, Kunzendorf and Stritzky. Although these giants foundered amidst the turbulence of history, the spirit of beer lives on. After Valmiermuiža Brewery established its Riga Embassy on the premises of the former Stritzky Brewery, one after another, a host of new pubs opened their doors in this neighbourhood, some of which even installed their own brewing apparatus.
Actively encouraged by the founder of Valmiermuiža Brewery, the neighbours decided to join forces and launch the Riga Beer District. Their goal is to promote the diversity of flavours offered by small craft breweries to both Latvia’s beer lovers and visitors from near and far.
Welcome to a 2.5km route with ten pubs, gastropubs and brew pubs in which you can enjoy over 200 Latvian craft beer varieties!

I traveled to Riga for only 4 days and managed to see and do a lot in that short given timeframe. Riga is the largest city of the Baltics and offers a lot of cool things to do in Riga itself but also just a short train ride out of the center in Sigulda.
This video showcases the combination of a city trip and and action packed day out in the nature. My personal highlight has been the flight in the vertical wind tunnel Aerodium near Sigulda - if you feel like you can even go Bungee Jumping there.

Welcome to Riga | Latvia
For travellers, the best thing about Latvia is that it is so compact. Its 500 km of sandy beaches are easily reached from historical towns, where medieval hanseatic foundations support baroque and art nouveau buildings, that become venues for cultural festivals during the summer. Families of storks happily give their seal of approval to the unspoilt nature, fresh air and clean water around them. In addition to Riga, its spectacular gateway, there are 6 other UNESCO world heritage listed sites. A trading hub for over 800 years, it is well versed in welcome. With such a variety, Latvia is best enjoyed slowly.
Latvia, the pearl of the Baltic States, is one of the European Union member states and is situated in the North of Europe -- on the shores of the Baltic Sea. Since ancient times Latvia has been at the cross-roads between East and West, North and South. Therefore, Latvia is a multi-cultured state, where the traditions of all these countries have merged, creating a unique environment, the like of which is not to be found anywhere in the world.
Latvian nature is green and pristine, in contrast with the small-town charm and architectural luxuriousness of the larger cities. Through many centuries, Latvia has accumulated a multicultural heritage and traditions as well as a rich history. The untouched and the primordial mingle with the modern and the dynamic. That is why Latvia is a tremendous holiday destination. In this section you will find recommendations for holiday destinations in Latvia.

NATIONAL DAY IN RIGA, LATVIA | European Bike Tour #69
If you want to support the tour, you can donate here:
Video description:
Went to the city center of Riga to find some way to get to Warsaw. They say either no or depends if it's busy, so I decided until the day of departure and go there then to check if I could get my bike on the bus and ride to the next place. If not, I could take some trains and hopefully eventually end up in Warsaw, Poland. When I was in the city center I noticed a lot of Latvian flags on the streets, and found out it was a national holiday today. So when I wanted to get back to the Airbnb apartment, I decided to follow the crowd and ended up at a military parade. After that I went back to the Airbnb apartment to warm myself up, and at night I went back to the city, because there were supposed to be some fireworks. I ended up not seeing the fireworks because I had to wait very long for my food, but I was present at some cool fire and the end of a ceremony at the Freedom Monument with live television. The city was very packed and so I made my way back to the Airbnb apartment and went to bed.

Cost: £ – super cheap
Rating: 9/10 – perfect mini break destination
Trip length: 2 nights is enough time to explore
I was SO surprised at how gorgeous Riga was – a beautiful city centre with plenty to see and a considerable selection of nice restaurants and bars. It was magical in the snow, but I’m certain it would be stunning in the summer too. Definitely recommend for a mini break.
