Sunrise in Kemeri National Park, optional hike to a viewing tower, then Jūrmala beach time by the Baltic, all with door-to-door Riga pickup.

“This was a great trip from start to finish and really added some lovely memories to our holiday in Latvia. Armand was on time to collect us, very friendly and chatty and was attentive to our needs the whole time. He knew so much about Latvian history and nature and was very willing to answer any questions and share his expertise. I don’t think you could ask him a question he doesn’t know the answer to! We were so lucky and had the whole Kemeri Park to ourselves as we arrived so early in the morning, it was so beautiful and peaceful. I really recommend even in winter, the snow…”

A full-day small-group tour from Riga, pairing Jurmala beaches with Kemeri bog boardwalk, Kuldiga’s waterfall and bridge, plus local food.

“My sister and I booked this tour with Jimmy as we were looking for a tour to get outside of Riga and explore more of Latvia. There were surprisingly not many tours like this offered, besides private tours. It ended up only being the 2 of us though, but can be a small group. Since it was just us, Jimmy picked us up and dropped us off at our hotel and we could be more flexible with the schedule such as spending more or less time at certain stops. At first I wasn't sure since there were not a lot of reviews. However, Jimmy is an experienced tour guide who…”

In total we were 4 people, us plus another couple. The guided walk on the boardwalk around Kermeri Bog was spectacular! We were also lucky enough to see some wildlife including a Stork, Crane and Lizard! After we finished the 4km walk Rolands offered us some traditional Latvian sweets and tea. We were pleased we opted to do the Jurmala extension where Rolands drove us through the town pointing out things to see before we made a short stop at a viewpoint overlooking…”

Small-group day tour from Riga visiting Lithuania’s Hill of Crosses, Jelgava cathedral and palace, then relaxing Jūrmala beach time.

“I was on a solo trip to end a business trip in Sept 2025. When I started browsing things to do I got in touch with Latvian Gem and Krista was a huge help in planning a day trip for me. I wanted to see the Hill of Crosses at sunrise, but I also had all day to do other things. I took her suggestions for Jelgava and the beach town of Jūrmala and had a great day with tour guide Viesturs. He was timely, friendly and knowledgeable! I had a wonderful day on this tour! Highly recommend.”
