Riga Bike Tours

Allow Latvia to capture your imagination on a bike tour of this Baltic gem. Nestled between its Baltic neighbors of Lithuania and Estonia, and enjoying all the benefits of a sandy coastline along the Baltic Sea, Latvia is a tourist destination that is often overlooked. Discover the vestiges of Pagan traditions, passed down from ancient Baltic tribes, the rich folkloric legacy of dance, songs, and costumes that still thrive in rural villages, and the lush forests and sandy beaches that constitute Latvia’s scenic landscapes.

Ride through resplendent Riga on a day tour and discover a city with the highest density of Art Nouveau architecture. The city is rich in history and cultural heritage, having once been a trade center for the Vikings and later a part of the Hanseatic League, a powerful trading alliance in medieval Europe. Every street is a work of art, and combined with museums, theaters, and the tranquil shores of the Daugava River, a ride through Riga will leave you raving about this UNESCO World Heritage Site.
