We offer you in this excursion a very complete visit to Riga, capital of Latvia and the largest city in the Baltic states. A wonderful city with the best preserved medieval urban center in the area. Latvia is the most populous Baltic country, followed by Lithuania and Estonia.

The center of Riga is fascinating: completely pedestrianized, the historic center becomes a journey through time, with its successive reconstructions for war reasons and its many Soviet "court" buildings. The tourist is amazed by the beauty of the so-called "Paris of the East", built between castles and bridges, and proud to be a hymn to Art Nouveau. In fact, it is the European city with the most modernist buildings. Did you know that the first urban Christmas tree was installed in the center of Riga in 1510?

Come during your cruise to a sensational excursion. Travel to the past with a visit impossible to repeat, and keep the best memory of your trip. We are waiting for you!
