Your Itinerary

Day 1
Welcome to Latvia!
Anna will pick you up from RIX airport, if required. You’ll then head over to your local homestay to settle in and prepare for the coming days. Meet your fellow travelers and get to know each other in a cosy welcome dinner session at the homestay. Excite your taste buds with the first flavours of seasonal, local eastern European cuisine on your first night in Latvia.

Day 2
Explore Urban Riga with Locals
After some breakfast at the homestay, we’ll head out to embark on eye-feasting, guided tours of medieval Old Riga City at 11am and Central Riga at 2pm, with a break in-between. These boast the opportunity to view the exquisite heritage and architectural genius of Latvia’s heart. Afterwards, you’ll have some time to rest in the nearby park or do some shopping at Europe’s biggest food market housing culinary delights from all over the world. We’ll end the day with dinner (at own cost) at a popular foodcourt that offers a variety of traditional food—yum yum—before

Day 3
On the Road to Kemeri and Kanieris
Following an early breakfast, we’ll venture out on a day of road trips and beautiful stops along the way. First up is the National Park for the Great Kemeri Bog Boardwalk, which offers a magnificent view from an observation platform as a reward for the 3.4km walk. Next, we’ll trek through Kanieris Lake Reeds trail to a secret bird watching observation tower. At the end of an active day, we’ll soak in some sand and waves, and catch the beach sunset before settling in at our guesthouse and enjoying a delicious, aromatic BBQ dinner.

Day 4
On the Road to Kaltene, Roja and Kolka
We’ll start the day making and enjoying breakfast together, then getting ready for another active day. First stop is Kaltene’s coastline, where the
well-deserved break, we’ll focus on 1.2km and the invariantly stunning sunset at Cape Kolka, where ‘two seas meet’. We finish the day relishing the outdoors at the glorious campsite in Jūrmalnieki to rest up real well.
Day 5
On the Road to Usma and Jurmala
Start off with a hearty breakfast as we set our plans for the day ahead. We’ll first drive to Usma Lake and enjoy the magnificent view from the Otter Hill tower, followed by a visit to the Ivande waterfall. After a break, we’ll have another visit to a lake, Lackrogs (talk about a water-filled day), before relaxing in the evening on the bustling streets of Jomas and a walk by Jurmala beach. All that’s left to do is return to our homestay in Riga for our last night.

Day 6

One last fulfilling breakfast meal will be shared together on this morning, as we reminisce on the sweet and most treasured memories of the past few days. Anna will provide transfers to the airport, with a wish that everyone returns home safely feeling rejuvenated and content.
