Riga Bus Tour
Routes and Stops
The Riga sightseeing bus runs 2 routes covering the city’s main sights. The red line lasts 60 minutes and the blue line lasts 40 minutes. Along the route, you’ll enjoy recorded commentary in English, so you won’t miss any interesting details about the places the bus passes.

You’ll also see Kipsala Island, the Powder Tower, and the War Museum. Of course, the route also passes in front of the National Opera, the Museum of Medicine, and the elegant Art Nouveau district.
Meanwhile, the blue line lets you discover other key sights such as Riga Cathedral, the train station, the building of the Latvian Academy of Sciences, the Central Market, and the Riga Ghetto Museum. You’ll get a complete overview of the city.
