Ilze is a fantastic guide!

Published on Feb, 2020

We had a wonderful walking tour of the art nouveau district and the Central Market with Ilze, who is warm, friendly and extremely knowledgable. Thank you Santa for arranging the tours for us and Ilze for showing us around Riga, we had a wonderful time! Highly recommended.

Informative and interesting

Published on Aug, 2018

We had a very pleasant walking tour with Santa through the Art Nouveau district. She did a good job of categorizing and describing what we were seeing and helped to put it in historical perspective. She did such a good job that the rest of our stay in Riga we were looking for more A.N. and recognizing the different categories she discussed. Excellent tour. On time. Highly recommended.

A great way to enjoy the architecture of Riga

Published on Jul, 2018

Everything was awesome, well organized and on-time. I asked for the guide to meet us at the hotel (we were in the center) and she did, with no problem, then took us on a brisk walk up to the Art Nouveau district and told us the history of every relevant building present there (let me put it this way, every building you see in the postcards). Then took us into the Art Nouveau apartment (that cost a little bit extra) and went through the apartment, telling us the history of the place. Everything was awesome, as I have already said. Well organized, well planned and well executed. One funny aside, our tour was just me, my tour guide and my pal. Through out the tour, we kept getting funny glances at much larger groups doing the same tour of Italians, Germans and Argentinians, who were in groups of twenty, twelve and thirty respectively. They were confused as to how I managed such a private tour.
