Riga Sightseeing Service is a tourist agency that since 2005 has been offering you Hop on-Hop off sightseeing tours in Riga on the red double-decker buses.
Today, we are the largest company in the city providing this kind of service. During the summer season we operate open-top double-decker buses, in the cold season – warm and cozy double-decker buses.
The Grand tour runs along the streets of the 800-year-old city through the three districts of the city.
First, we go to Pardaugava – the left bank of the river Daugava, overlooking the ancient cathedrals of a medieval city with the golden cockerels.
Next, we go to the Center. This is where most city attractions are located. You will pass along the Boulevard Ring, see the famous Monument of Freedom, the Opera House, the Powder Tower, the Cathedral and much more.
Then the tour goes through the architecture part of Riga – the area of embassies of various countries and the district of modern architecture, where you will see the facades of the National Romanticism and decorative Art Nouveau.
There are 11 main and about 16 additional stops on the routes.
In the summer, our double-decker open-top buses depart from the Town Hall Square of the old town between 9:45 and 16:45(on request), every 30-60 minutes.
During spring/autumn/winter period buses run from 10:45 to 14:45, every hour.
All tours feature pre-recorded commentary of an individual audio guide broadcast via headphones in 10 languages of your choice: English, German, Russian, Swedish, Finnish, Spanish, French, Latvian, Italian and Norwegian.
