About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- Chris M0 contributionsLithuania tourShocking. Tried booking. No response to questions or trying to book a tour. Sent lots emails and nothing from acknowledged text when I asked if I messaged right company. If a company can’t do the absolute basics communication wise I can’t imagine what the tours are like. Really disappointing as the tours looked impressive on glossy website.Written September 19, 2023
- Leratata0 contributionsHot air balloon - wow!!!Great balloon flight in Riga! We loved it! Our warmest recommendations! Great service from Dainis, Kristaps and the rest of the crew and our morning flight was an amazing experience!!! €900 for 4 people incl pick up and drop off. Magic!Written April 22, 2018
- Justine D0 contributionsHusky dog sleddingIn february 2018, we were very lucky to have heaps of snow in Riga. We decided to book a husky safari just outside Riga with tour point. At 85 eur per person, it was not cheap but it was worth every cent! He picked us up at the hotel exactly at the agreed time. On our way to the huskies, Dainis gave a lot of info about Riga and everything we passed by. We arrived after half an hour. First you could pet and play with the dogs. Then they took the time to explain how to drive. Be sure to take pictures of the holocaust monument. The ride was a great experience. Afterwards we drank tea and ate local treats. We highly recommend tour point!Written February 18, 2018
- James C0 contributions3 Trips with Tourpoint - ExcellentWe booked 3 Trips with Tourpoint when we were in Latvia. The first was Rundale Palace, Bauska Castle & Hill of Crosses (in Lithuania). The second was Sigulda, Litagne & Cesis including the former Soviet Nuclear Bunker. The third was Kuldiga. All of the trips were well planned and enjoyable. Our guide Dainis was friendly helpful and had great English. I would definitely use Tourpoint again if I visit Latvia again.Written December 8, 2017
- Sandra D0 contributionsHot air balloon trip - best experience ever!They have organised a hot air balloon trip for 4 of us. Price was 225 eur per person. We did not pay anything in advance as other companies were asking. Weather was really not stable so until last day when the tour was booked, we didn't know if we will go. That is really expected, so prepare yourself for this weather. When we arrived on the field, weather turned from cloudy and rainy into clear and sunny :) We were lucky. Ride was amazing!!! One of the best experiences we had in nature. If you ever go to a hot air balloon ride - wear something on your head. It is going to be very hot, and you need to protect your head from the heat. Nothing will happen if you don't have a hat, but it will be very very hot. Landing is a bit tricky as balloon can't land in one place, and it can bounce. Follow the instructions shared by the person flying the balloon. Have fun!Written August 10, 2017
- George80520 contributionsDog sledding-ticked off bucket listWe were lucky enough to to have snow for the sledding to go ahead. Contact with the company was good. We were picked up on time by a knowledgable guide for the one and half hour drive. On arrival we were given a run through of what to do then set off for the 6 km run with the dogs. It was a fantastic experience, one everyone should try. Thank youWritten January 22, 2016

- anakbabiilang0 contributionsExcellent!I contacted the agency for night kayak tour for 4 people (ranges from 60 to 6 years old). The guide (Jans) was very helpful and very accommodating to our requests. He was very easy to contact and very nice. The tour was a success, everybody loves it. It was a different way of seeing the old town, and was very fun for the children. Jans also provided us with snacks and waters. And we enjoyed it on the riverbank. We really enjoyed this tour. Thank you Jans and Agnes! Definitely would recommend this agency for other people!Written June 25, 2015

They were easy to contact and the guide(Uldis Vanags) was very nice. Uldis knowledge about the history of Latvia is amazing.

We left at 10am with our guide, stopped at Bauska Castle on a beautiful sunny day, stunning views. Then we drove on to Rundale Palace and what a superb place and wonderful palace, with a stunning rose garden. The Palace has been restored to its former glory.

I had a very good experience dealing with Tour Point to customize a day trip. I wanted to see the Bikernieki Memorial, Rumbula Forest Memorial and Rundale Palace and make it to the airport for a 7pm flight. It's not possible to get to these places by public transport or on a group tour (as least in this timeframe), so I opted for a private tour.
Jans in the office was very efficient in answering my emails to help me sort out the trip. My guide (who also was the driver) was Ilze, who did a good job getting me around everything and staying on schedule. The two Jewish memorials sites were sobering. Rundale Palace was, as expected, very picturesque both inside and out. After visiting the places on the itinerary, we had enough extra time to spend an hour in the Jelgava, which is a picturesque city. (By then, Ilze could tell that I'm a keen photographer, so it was a good idea to take me to Jelgava, which has some nice buildings in the center.)
I was very happy with Tour Point. The company is good to deal with in organizing a private tour,and the tour itself was very well run. So I highly recommend Tour Point to anyone needing a tour company to plan a trip in Latvia.

Our trip to the Baltic countries included visits to all three capital cities, and Tourpoint gave us an excellent way to travel between them and see sights in between without having to return to a starting point. First, we booked a private transfer with Dainis from Vilnius to Riga, with stops at the Hill of Crosses and Rundale Palace, where we had enough time to really visit the house and gardens. Then, in response to our request, Dainis worked out another private transfer from Riga to Tallinn, with visits to Sigulda, Cesis, Valmiera, and Viljandi, as well as one of the bunkers of the resistance fighters, all places that we could not have seen without much additional effort, cost, and travel time. The convenience of being picked up at our accommodation and delivered to our next stop was terrific, and the water and snacks Dainis provided allowed us to maximize the time seeing sights along the way. We cannot recommend Tourpoint enough!

We had a great day with Dainis on our private transfer from Vilnius to Riga. He communicated well leading up to the transfer and was very punctual and professional. He provided water for both of us as well as some delicious local snacks from Riga. It was very convenient to be dropped off and picked up at our accommodations in each city. We had plenty of time to visit the Hill of Crosses and Rundale Palace. Because we had a little extra time, he stopped at a few extra places for us which we really enjoyed. Throughout the day, we also enjoyed getting to know Dainis. He is very friendly and informative. This is the best way to travel between the two capitals. We definitely recommend a transfer with Tourpoint!

Had a great experience with TourPoint. I needed to get from Riga to Vilnius and TourPoint offered a transfer between the 2 cities that stopped at the Rundale Palace and the Hill of Crosses. Great day, where I got to see 2 great sites and also benefited from a private transfer. Highly recommend TourPoint...great and professional staff. Also, highly recommend seeing. Rundale Palace and the Hill of Crosses.

Excellent tour company. We were looking for a last minute tour from Riga to Rundale Palace and Hill of Crosses. And we came across in their site online. I sent a booking inquiry online at 10:30pm and recieved a phone call from Dainis straight away. Dainis was able to find and offer us a tour the following day. We paid €85 each but worth it. He came in our hotel on time to introduce us to our driver and to our surprised Dainis gave us some food and drink to take with us during our tour. Our driver (sorry forgot his name) was really good too. He has good knowledge of the places and gave us some ideas on how to go and visit other places too. We highly recommend Tour point company.
