Kristine was great - well rehearsed and thoughtful in her speeches around the city. We enjoyed that she kept the pace going and had transitions between stops. A great way to get a quick overview of the history and culture of the city.

Daniels was such a kind and humble tour leader. He had a great sense of humour and his stories were interesting and fun. He talked about life in Riga, some historical stories, some current events, and funny anecdotes along the way. You can feel loving kindness emitting from his spirit. Thank you Daniels!
