One of the best experiences of our lives. The four man bobsled on a championship track was simply amazing. Our pilot and brakeman were highly professional, fun and gave us quite a thrill - 107km per hour and pulled 4Gs. A little expensive but money very well spent.
We took the train from Riga for a few euros and walked to the venue.
Skip a day sightseeing in Riga and go do this - you will not regret it!!

I went here in January with 4 friends; don't bother with the soft-bob, go for the full 4 man bob-sleigh. It is absolutely awesome.
Thanks to Laura from Travel Jam for bringing us to the track; a fantastic choice!

Working only on weekends. And they dont care that Eurobasket 2015 in Riga is organised from saturday evening till thursday. So for thousands of sport tourist it was only one day (sunday) to spent their money here. Bad organization.

This was an incredible experience! Bobsledding was so much fun, but poorly organised!
We prebooked online a few days earlier and despite arriving at our allotted time, we were waiting for over an hour before we finally got to take 60second ride of pure speed and adrenalin!
There's no queuing procedure, which makes it hopeless to try and organise the participants. Once your in the sleigh though, hold on!
It's €50 per run each, but it's an experience you can't get in many places anymore!

This is something completely unexpected for such a sleepy city as Sigulda, but the experience is amazing and totally worth the visit!
Definitely the most exciting, adrenaline filled and scary minutes in my life. Would never do it again but very happy I did. Got a certificate too! :)

Mindblowing speeds going downhill in a real bob. My eyes went blank in more than one hairpin bend!

Something you just have to do, but don't expect a tourist experience. You get a helmet, shown your position and off you go. You can't even buy a t-shirt at the end of it !!!

Rode the four man bobsleigh down the Sigulda Track. Not for the faint hearted! The ride was very fast, bumpy and exciting with very high G forces experienced through the turns. Would thoroughly recommend it for people that like an adrenaline rush!

Very very fast, bobsleigh reaches speed up to 100km/h. Since there are only 16 track in the world where you can do this kind of activity - have to do it!
