Riga Flights

Riga is famous for its architecture, particularly its cathedral and castle, and is a popular destination for city breaks as well as, more recently, stag and hen weekends. With cheap flights to Riga becoming more commonplace, why not consider Latvia as part of your Baltic experience?

Riga lies on the mouth of the Daugava, and is one of the most important seaports in Europe, with ferries to cities such as Stockholm offering the chance to explore more of Europe. There are also a number of beaches in nearby Jurmula, accessible by car or train, allowing you the chance to relax and enjoy the summer sun.

The city enjoys a temperate summer season from April to October - with tourists flocking to enjoy the climate around this time, with colder weather setting in from November onwards. Riga is also a popular destination for those who want to enjoy a Christmas market. A popular destination for European city breaks, Riga provides opportunities to shop and explore the rich history of the largest city in the Baltic States, before taking in a trip to one of the city's many theatres and enjoying an operatic performance. Guided tours around the historical city centre are popular with tourists, or you could take a walk on the wild side and explore Riga Zoo.
