June 10, 2021 Esmeralda Fenner

The Latvian capital, the largest city in the Baltics, is a fascinating mixture of proud Latvian tradition and influences of the various countries that have occupied it. Independent once again since 1991, Riga's Art Nouveau center has won it UNESCO World Heritage Site designation. Opened up to mass tourism with the advent of budget air travel, Riga's Old City and its abundance of bars and restaurants can be explored on foot. The New Town is easily reached by an efficient and modern bus and tram network.

I have two problems with this tour from Levi. I recently took this tour with my fiance for our honeymoon. We spent the full 8hrs and payed the $600. although the tour was detailed and the ride was amazing i really dont see why it costs so much! My friend took another tour for only $100 and they told me how they got the exact same experience visiting all the same places. Levi get yo mind right and put an acceptable price for this your just ripping off %90 of your customers

We traveled with family initially from Rome to Vince and some other destination with Italia rial . It was one of the best experience of rail journey . I booked the ticket online for which reservation and validation were not required and upon reaching it was easily changed to get earlier train to Venice . Love the service and facility , train was clean ,perfectly on time with providing map information that was really great for first time traveler. I must recommend to everyone.
