★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 52 reviews · 2 hours 30 minutes (approx.) · from $43Best value

Ride through Riga with an English-speaking local guide, covering Art Nouveau Alberta Iela, Esplanade, Central Market, Spikeri, Holocaust memorials, and Old Town sights. Bikes, safety vests, and a guide system are included. The route suits most riders, and an e-bike can help on the city’s occasional hills.

“Great bike tour, we went all around the city, and really saw a lot in the 2.5 hours. Our guide was great, very knowledgeable and enjoyable, and his English was very good. I really liked the earpiece so that we could ride our bikes while hearing him point out places and share bits of information, in between the stops we made. I also liked that he didn’t go too slow on the bikes, so we could actually enjoy riding a bike. I definitely recommend this tour!”

5.Guided Ebike Tour on Forest Roads and Trails Near Riga

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 19 reviews · 1 hour 30 minutes to 2 hours (approx.) · from $96

Meet Pauls at Bumbu Hill Firewatch Tower for a private ebike ride through pine forests, sandy trails, and rolling dunes near Riga. You’ll see Bullupe and Lielupe rivers, visit the 17-meter White Dune, and hear local history. The pace adjusts to your group, but expect some bumps and moderate physical effort.

“We absolutely loved our bike excursion in the forested area near Riga! It was a perfect break from the hustle of city tourism, the trees are like a fairy tale and the air is fresh and fragrant! Pauls showed us some chantarelle mushrooms to pick and (my favorite part) wild blueberries! The bikes are super fun as well, make sure to speed up when you hit the sand so you don’t go wobbly! We enjoyed seeing the beach and the individualized pace of the tour was great—stop more or less depending on your preference! Great conversation throughout!”
