        3 Destinations and 2 Countries in 1 day!
        What a fantastic day lead by our brilliant guide and driver Janis! All 3 destinations were amazing, we were impressed with Rundale Palace, we even got to stop for selfies at the border! Janis gave us not only information regarding our destinations but also a comprehensive insight into Latvian history and culture. Would highly recommended this tour.

        Good view and friendly driver
        The driver was very friendly and the view was very good. But I just wanted to know the case when we joined the tour with kid in advance.

        Excellent tour through 2 countries: Latvia🇱🇻 and Lituhania🇱🇹, with the Crosses✝️ as the ultimate goal. Beautiful surrondings, villages and palaces. It was a privelege to be driven and guided by Latvian Gem colleague Janis. Many thanks, Joost from The Netherlands🇳🇱.

        Crosses
        Guide was very good. Kept all of us interested during the trip to The Hill of Crosses. Worth a visit as probably won't see again.

        Nice day trip from Riga
        Very 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.

        Hill of crosses
        A bit of a depressing and crumbling place. Definitely a meaningful place for deeply religious people. Rather not for visiting with with fickle children.

        Value for money. Great tour guide and beautiful sights
        Great 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!

        Wonderful 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.

        Hill 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.

        Highly recomend!
        The hill itself is much bigger than expected and you have to be there to really be able to take it all in. the guide was amazing and made extra stops for us by an old castle, that is now a school, and also by the border to Lithuania so we could have some pictures. Highly recommend this trip and especially with this guide who went the extra mile to make the trip as much of an experience as possible for us!
