My tours are often booked by my partners and guests 1 – 1.5 years in advance. It is important especially for those who are on a shore-trip and depend very much on the time of arrival & departure. Please care of your tour arrangements as much in advance as possible!
From my experience of having tours booked with different partners please contact me first before booking about my availability on the day of your tour to be sure.
If you are a cruise-ship traveller please contact me to precise the port of docking. For the ports in suburbs of Riga you have to take a shuttle bus or you can book me for transferring you to the centre. In this case we are able to start the tour even at the transfer time in order not to waste time.
