History:
E.a.t. Riga was set up by an Englishman who moved to Riga back in 2005. After seeing that there was something missing with the tourism market in Riga he decided to set up an alternative option for those that wanted to really discover the city. Starting with a daily city tour, the idea soon grew into bicycle tours, creative tours and all kinds of options for the curious visitor.
Our Concept:
The first idea was to create an alternative to traditional walking tours in Riga. Later came the idea make the tours more creative and aim at getting people out of the old town and into the more lived in parts of Riga. Using enthusiastic city guides to show Riga as it really is.
Our approach to providing each tour with a Riga city guide that is enthusiastic about the city, rather than someone simply doing a job, has proved to be one of the most important part of our recipe. A well informed city guide, with local knowledge of Riga, Is what makes our tours. Of course a good sense of humor comes with all our city guides.
The future:
We want to keep developing our ideas, work closer with various partners and maintain a high standard of services, city tours, city guides and ideas to get the general public more involved with the culture and history of Riga. If you want to become a Riga city guide, if you want to work with us or simply share your ideas, please just drop us an email.
Let us hope that we can continue to provide high quality, entertaining tours in Riga long into the future.
