Margita gave us an interesting tour of Riga Old city, covering its history, georgraphy, conquests and other insights. Margita also took us to a couple of shops that she recommended, and gave us some restaurant recommendations.Private Tour of Riga Old City

Informative tour from a friendly local. Margita helped us learn about the history and local area, while highlighting the architecture and styles. Delicious food from Lido, and local ice cream with a tour of Old Town in between. Highly recommend! Delicious food tour

Had we not taken this tour, we would have missed some of the most incredible architecture in Riga. This is a great way to see something that many visiting the city miss. Margita is a native to this part of Riga and gives an excellent tour of her home turf. Do not miss this part of Riga

This was a great way to get an introduction into cuisine and culture in Riga - it was one of the first things we did upon arriving. We tried local meats, cheeses, candies, pastries, and beers. Margita is an excellent host and spokeswoman for her city. Her local knowledge really makes this tour special. Interesting & Tasty

If you’re looking for a guided tour that rises far above the ordinary, book one with Margita. She is not only eloquent and knowledgeable – she is a true storyteller with heart, humor, and deep insight. With a rare ability to balance facts and emotions, she took us on a journey where we saw the city with fresh eyes and felt deeply connected to its soul. She opened doors to hidden places and untold stories, engaged us with respect and curiosity – and created an atmosphere that made us both wiser and happier. Margita does what few can: she brings history to life, makes culture resonate, and turns language into a living experience. We left with new perspectives and wide smiles. Thank you for an unforgettable experienceA guided experience beyond the ordinary
