Riga has quite the craft beer scene. Took advantage of the opportunity to learn more about it and sample some of the city’s offerings on a “Riga Through a Beer Glass” tour. Stops included @alkimikis, @ziemeluenkurs, @labietis, and @valmiermuizas_alus . . . #hosted #witsriga #liveriga #rigastories #rigaisart #alkimikis #ziemeluenkurs #labietis #valmiermuiza #riga #rigalatvia #latvia #magneticlatvia #enjoylatvia #baltictravel #explore #exploremore #wanderlust #travel #travelgram #learnthroughtravel #travelblogger #wanderful #sheswanderful
The Latvian National Opera, which we toured during a performance of La Bohème.

Riga Central Market, housed in five repurposed zeppelin hangars is a feast for the senses. On the Riga Foodie Tour, we were able to visit the market and sample the goods with a local chef. . . . #hosted #witsriga #liveriga #rigastories #rigaisart #rigacentralmarket #rigafoodtour #willtravelforfood #latvia #magneticlatvia #enjoylatvia #baltictravel #explore #exploremore #wanderlust #travel #travelgram #learnthroughtravel #travelblogger #wanderful #sheswanderful
The Powder Tower, as seen along our Classic Riga City Tour. Part of the city’s defensive system, it got its name in the 17th century, when it housed gunpowder. It is now part of the Latvian War Museum. . . . #hosted #witsriga #liveriga #rigastories #rigaisart #latvia #latviatravel #enjoylatvia #baltictravel #citytour #rigacitytour #powdertower #walkingtour #explore #exploremore #wanderlust #travel #travelgram #learnthroughtravel #travelblogger #wanderful #sheswanderful
The Freedom Monument in the heart of Riga, one of the stops on our Classic Riga City Tour. It is topped by a statue of Freedom, known as Milda, who is holding three gold stars, representing the three regions of Latvia. It was erected in 1935, to honor the soldiers who had died in the Latvian War of Independence (1918-1920) . . . #hosted #witsriga #liveriga #rigastories #rigaisart #latvia #enjoylatvia #baltictravel #citytour #rigacitytour #walkingtour #freedommonumentriga #milda #explore #exploremore #wanderlust #travel #travelgram #learnthroughtravel #travelblogger #wanderful #sheswanderful
