SMILE LINE
A pioneer of international tourism in the country, the agency has designed all its tours with great relevance. As qualified and certified professionals, each guide-accompanier has the necessary cultural background to inform visitors with exacting precision and answer all their questions. They are also enthusiastic locals with a passion for their profession, who will listen to your requests, inform you and recommend all kinds of good addresses to keep you going. It is of course possible to book tours and excursions with a French-speaking guide (Smile Line can organize them in 18 languages). While it's easy out of season (book one or two days in advance), it's advisable to book well in advance during the season (a few weeks, ideally a month, to be on the safe side), as guides and tours are in great demand!
Smile Line offers no less than fifteen different guided tours to discover Riga as a group or as an individual (private tour exclusively for you and/or your small group traveling together). The meeting point is easy to find, as the tours generally start from the epicenter of the old town: City Hall Square (where you'll soon spot your guide and his yellow Smile Line umbrella). If not, you'll be picked up at your hotel, where you'll be given clear directions to the meeting point. From the essentialWalking Tour Old Town (1 hour 30 min.), ideal for planning on arrival to familiarize yourself with Riga straight away, to the grand tours (Old Town + Art Nouveau district + circular boulevards + banks of the Daugava + Moscow district on foot or by bus), not forgetting the well-designed thematic tours (culinary tour of the fascinating Riga market, Orthodox Riga, Jewish Riga, romantic Riga by night, Riga by bike, photo safari, kayak or boat...), Smile Line offers the full range of services), Smile Line has the most varied offer for discovering the city from every angle.
To find out more about the country and get out of Riga for a short stay, excursions to Jurmala, baroque Rundale, medieval Sigulda or the traditional Ogre in the Latvian countryside are memorable escapades. If you want to discover another Baltic country, you can opt for the Tallinn-Parnü combination in neighboring Estonia.
