What a day in Rundāle looks like.

Taken from the itineraries themselves — these are real days from trips we run, not a generic description of the city.

Day 3 · Essence of Latvia — 5 Days

Jūrmala & Rundāle Palace

Morning drive to Jūrmala — Riga's seaside resort, 25 kilometres west along the Gulf of Riga. The town stretches for 33 kilometres along a white-sand beach backed by pine dunes, and the residential streets are lined with ornate wooden Art Nouveau villas built by the Russian and German aristocracy in the 19th century. Walk the beach and the pedestrian Jomas iela. After lunch, drive south to Rundāle Palace — the masterpiece of Bartolomeo Francesco Rastrelli, who went on to build the Winter Palace in St Petersburg. The palace and its formal French gardens have been meticulously restored and are the finest baroque ensemble in the Baltic States. Return to Riga in the evening.

  • Jūrmala wooden Art Nouveau villas and white-sand beach
  • Rundāle Palace — Rastrelli's Baltic masterpiece
