Free excursions in Riga

Yes Yes! There are free tours in Riga in English! Moreover, there are several thematic routes: the old town, Art Nouveau, Moskachka, etc. I’ve been on these excursions a couple of times and really enjoyed them. It was interesting.

Where can I find free excursions?

The format of the excursions is as follows: you register online, come for the excursion (please, if you do not come, cancel the reservation so that the group does not wait for you).

At the end of the tour, you pay the guide as much as you see fit. Usually it’s about 10 euros. But you don’t have to pay at all.

After the tour, you can leave a review about the guide on the website. This is very important to them!

Free entry to Riga museums!

So, the trick is that many museums in Riga have special days when admission is free.
