From our itineraries

What a day in Sigulda looks like.

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

Day 4 · Essence of Latvia — 5 Days

Sigulda & Gauja Valley

Drive northeast to Sigulda and the Gauja National Park — Latvia's oldest and most scenic protected area. The Gauja River has carved a valley through red sandstone, and the forested cliffs are topped with medieval castles and manor houses. Visit Turaida Castle — a red-brick fortress built by the Archbishop of Riga in 1214, restored and set above the river with panoramic views. Walk to Gūtmanis Cave — the largest cave in the Baltics, with inscriptions dating to the 17th century. Cross the valley by cable car for the view. Cēsis, a short drive further, has one of the best-preserved medieval castle ruins in the Baltics — explore the towers by candlelight. Farewell dinner in Sigulda or Riga.

  • Turaida Castle — red brick, 1214, panoramic valley views
  • Gūtmanis Cave — the largest cave in the Baltics
  • Gauja Valley cable car crossing

Day 6 · Grand Baltics — 12 Days

Sigulda, Gauja Valley & Rundāle

Morning drive to Sigulda and the Gauja National Park. Turaida Castle — the red-brick fortress built in 1214 — commands panoramic views over the forested river canyon. Walk to Gūtmanis Cave, the largest in the Baltics, with centuries of carved inscriptions. Cross the valley by cable car. Afternoon drive south to Rundāle Palace — Rastrelli's Baltic masterpiece, designed by the architect who went on to build the Winter Palace in St Petersburg. The formal French gardens and Gold Hall are among the finest baroque interiors in Northern Europe. Return to Riga.

Day 4 · Latvia — Art Nouveau & Nature — 7 Days

Cēsis

A short drive to Cēsis — one of the most beautiful small towns in the Baltics. The medieval castle ruins are among the best preserved in Latvia; explore the towers by candlelight, a tradition the town has maintained for years. The new castle adjacent houses a museum and offers tower-top views over the Old Town. Walk the cobblestoned lanes, visit the medieval church, and lunch at a local café. Afternoon return to Sigulda or onward to the coast. The route passes through deep Latvian forest — birch, pine, and the occasional roadside stork nest.
