Itinerary
1
Riga
Our day begins with a comfortable drive south from Riga in an air-conditioned minibus. Along the way, I share stories that help bring the landscape to life — the rise of Baltic German nobility, the ambitions of dukes and empires, and the everyday lives of people who lived in the shadow of great estates.
1 hour and 20 minutes
2
Rundale Palace
The highlight of the day is Rundale Palace, often called the “Versailles of the Baltics.” I accompany you through the palace myself, with the visit supported by a digital audio guide hired on site. On some dates, if a licensed palace guide is available, we may also arrange one to join our group at no extra cost. When that happens, please see it as a complimentary enhancement rather than a guaranteed inclusion, as availability can depend on palace logistics rather than cost considerations on our side.
2 hours
3
Aveņi
After the palace visit, we stop for a relaxed sit-down lunch with a drink, giving you the chance to unwind and enjoy local flavours. Customers pay for their own food and drinks, directly to the restaurant. I would be on hand to guide you through the menu and be able to recommend local delicacies if you require assistance.
1 hour and 20 minutes
4
Bauska Castle
From there, we continue to Bauska Castle, where the atmosphere shifts from elegance to strategy. This medieval fortress once guarded important trade routes and river crossings, and its ruins reveal the region’s turbulent borderland history.
1 hour and 40 minutes
5
Bauska brewery
We then visit a local brewery, where you’ll learn about Latvian brewing traditions and enjoy a tasting before the drive back to Riga.
2 hours
6
Riga
By then, I hope you leave feeling you have used your day well, seen something special, and made warm memories of Latvia’s history, landscapes, flavours, and stories.
