3.Sunset at Kemeri National Park

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 38 reviews · 4 hours (approx.) · from $77Best value

Leave Riga with a small group and English-speaking guide Krista, Janis, or another Latvian Gem guide. Walk Kemeri’s raised bog boardwalk to a viewing tower, then stop at Jurmala Beach and its pedestrian street. The outing lasts about four hours and includes transport, guiding, and park admission.

“Of course it depends on what time of year you visit, but with summer sunset at 22:20, this was a late tour but worth it. The sunset itself was okay, but Kemeri park and bog walk were great! The boardwalk is well-maintained and sturdy. Not quite wide enough for two people to walk side-by-side, but not so narrow that you feel unsafe. Because of the distance from Riga, not many people take this tour, but that just makes it so incredibly peaceful and serene.”
