The beautiful city of RIga, the capital of Latvia, has already become one of the most popular European destinations and a necessary stop during the Baltic cruise. Not only is Old Town of Riga a UNESCO World Heritage Site, but in 2014 it was also listed as a European Capital of Culture. Riga is more than eight hundreds years old and is home to beautifully preserved medieval architecture. Disabled visitors to Riga can enjoy the largest city in the Baltics on one of these step-free, accessible Riga shore excursions and tours.

The route covers the best parts of the Old Town, busy city center, magnificent Art Novae district, idyllic wooden and even trendy hip areas. You can capture the best of Riga just within few hours, and we also enjoy a coffee break during the tour in a historic setting.
