Emils’ tour was a wonderful experience. Full of information, historic and personal. He was enthusiastic, entertaining and extremely knowledgeable and willing to answer questions as we walked along. It was special how he combined the historical information with stories that happened to his family. It made the learning more realistic. Thank you Emils

A great opportunity to look at Riga from a slightly different perspective, completely unknown to tourists. Our guide with Polish roots brought us closer not only to the places but also to the history of the Soviet occupation of Latvia. All in an interesting and engaging way. You are curious about history, it is definitely a trip for you

Experiencia muy recomendable para entender la historia reciente de Letonia y su relación en el pasado con la URSS y actualmente con Rusia. El desplazamiento a pie limita el número de edificios y entornos que se visitan, pero nuestro guía fue capaz de compensarlo con sus explicaciones.
