Description
Not only is kayaking our favourite activity in Riga, but it’s also that of our guests!
Join us on the water and admire Riga from a completely different angle. We’ll cruise along the Daugava River and the canal during the day when, unlike on our night tour, the city’s streets are buzzing with life.
You’ll see beautiful bridges and fountains, many lovely parks, the National Library, the National Opera, the Freedom Monument, Bastion Hill, the Central Market, and much more.
It’s a perfect way to embrace nature in the very heart of Riga. Fresh air, a bit of physical activity, and stunning surroundings are guaranteed to make you feel relaxed and recharged.

Some useful comments:
- Likealocal confirmation email gave a meeting address near the the church, which was a little confusing. You should meet at the front of the church. Check the website of the actual tour company if you are uncertain.
- Don't be nervous about the workload, even having zero experience and arms like twigs, being in a 2 person kayak wasn't any hassle at all, it was light work between two, with no arm aches or anything the next day (but then maybe my girlfriend was doing all the work! haha!)
- You get offered two choices of paddle - twisted or simple. Don't feel bad if you want the simple one, I tried both, but preferred the simple one for sure :)
- Saw some reviews about anti-bug spray - there were no mosquitoes on our trip, but we had sunny days, but perhaps they spring up after rainy weather.
- They provided a wetbag to safely store some items, but it didn't get wet at all inside the boat, apart from the occasional splash if you are really clumsy with your paddle :D
- Full refund if you cancel up to 72 hours before the tour
- No booking fees
- Pay by credit card or PayPal
