We had a prearranged walking tour through Riga (Moscow and Art Nouveau District) with James. He brought us to places you would normally not see during a "regular" walking tour. James was very organized, friendly and knowledgeable. I second other reviews here on the website and would definitely book again!

This is the perfect guided tour for those who don't like guded tours! We had a wonderful afternoon with Marcus, and it was more like being with a friend than being with a guide as we were only two couples. He picked us up at our hotel, and we walked through Riga on a Beer and Balsam tour. Marcus had... More

A group of friends and I booked the Husky Dog Sledding tour in December and, after being thoroughly terrified as the man in charge listed all the injuries you can fall afoul of falling off a sled, we had one of the coolest experiences of our lives. We paid 280 lats for the eight of us and that got us... More

My friend and I had prearranged an Old Town walking tour with James, and a family from our cruise ship joined us. James was very personable, knowledgeable, and ready to tailor the tour to our needs. Because he lived in Riga, and had made the effort to learn the language, he was able to take us to places where non-Latvian-speakers... More

For our business trip we needed some activities to distract from the business side. James understood our needs very well and has been great to communicate with. As a group we ended up doing a spy-game, traditional dancing and visiting some great eating venues. The staff was very friendly and accessible, they have gone the extra mile for us to... More

Myself and a friend did the walking tour of Riga, that included Vintage shopping :) It was a very cold day, and had been snowing on previous days. Although Riga is beautiful in Winter, it is freezing. We were lucky enough to have James as our guide, just moments before the birth of his son, and he made sure that... More

On our visit to Riga we booked a city tour with E.a.t. Riga. Our guide came to meet us at our hotel and the tour showed us the highlights of the city. Our guide was very knowledgable and explained the culture as well as the architecture, which made it very interesting. His enthusiasm showed he enjoys his work and willingness... More

We booked a combine Soviet Riga/Alternative tour as we wanted to make sure we didn't miss out on Riga outside the obvious tourist trap of the old town. The tour was very easy to arrange in advance, and there were no problems meeting our guide who was very friendly and knowledgeable with a brilliant, dry sense of humour. We got... More

AWWWEEESSOOMMMMEEE!!!!! Had a long weekend in Riga, and decided to do something different and ride around a city. My first experience at this sort of thing, and absolutely loved every minute of it. It was extremely cold, but then thats winter. I found the tour extremely informative and got to see lots more of the city than I had expected.... More

We booked a bike-tour at EAT in Riga because we expected to see quite a lot of the city in a relatively short period of time since we only had a few days in Riga. Our first impressions of the city were absolutely positive so we had high expectations of this tour. Besides that, we love to bike around. Too... More
