- Trek557785512860 contributionsHills of crosses TourFabulous little half day tour. Easy pick Up, nice mini bus with phone charger and tinted windows. Knowledgeable driver with English spoken throughout. Some good photo opportunity stops… would definitely recommend.Written 11 November 2024
- Raul270 contributionsNice day trip from RigaVery comprehensive itinerary and lovely and friendly guide. It’s a small van, so not a large group and we beat up our schedule pretty much every large bus with tourists after us. The Rundale palace is stunning definitely worth visiting . Same with Bauska and the hill of crosses is definitely an interesting place. Overall nice experience and a good way of ticking 2 countries in one day. It’s not such a long day either we were back by 5pm.Written 9 November 2024
- ESTravellerLittle0 contributionsHill of crossesA bit of a depressing and crumbling place. Definitely a meaningful place for deeply religious people. Rather not for visiting with with fickle children.Written 18 October 2024
- lindabaagoe0 contributionsValue for money. Great tour guide and beautiful sightsGreat day trip with our amazing tour guide, Janis! We were only three people on the trip, so we talked a lot about the Latvian culture, country and history, and Janis kindly shared his deep knowledge of everything. He even made an extra stop at Jelgava castle, as it was just on the way, as he said. I took the trip with my 14 year old daughter, and we both enjoyed the trip, the sights and the company. When we talked about the Riga Black Balsam, and heard that we have never tried it, he actually pulled over on a bus top and took out a bottle and served us a little taste of the “black gold”. Highly recommendable tour and tour guide!Written 15 October 2024
- 905abigailm0 contributionsWonderful addition to our Riga trip.Our guide was wonderful and made the trip really enjoyable. He was very knowledgeable and provided fun facts throughout the trip. The Hill of Crosses is definitely worth a visit if you’re in Riga, the car journey was a couple of hours but the Latvian and Lithuanian countryside was just stunning. We were back in Riga early afternoon so we still had time to explore the city. We had plenty of bathroom stops on the journey and a chance to pick up some food for the ride.Written 12 October 2024
- KayIsa010 contributionsHill of crosses..is a must visit.Thank you Krista for the wonderful experience. Hill of crosses is very special. It's a pilgrimage that gave me goosebumps. When you visit this place it will made you remember those loved ones you've lost. The other 2 castles were worth visiting too. Thank you Krista for the memorable trip.Written 7 October 2024
