Riga Art Nouveau Tours: The 5 Best Walks

5 tours  ·  from $5 a head

Riga holds more art nouveau than any other city in Europe and almost all of it is within a fifteen-minute walk of Alberta iela. These 5 walks differ mainly in how much time they spend on Eisenstein’s facades versus the quieter streets, and in whether you get inside a stairwell.

“We signed up for a private tour, but they had planned to add another couple and did not inform us until day before. They did ask our permission and dropped the €70 fuel fee. We agreed because we were helping out another couple. When they admitted this was know for a while I feel taken advantage of. If I had know it would not be private I would not have agreed to a charge of over €300.”

“I booked the tour online, but never received any confirmation of my booking even though the money was withdrawn from my account. Thus I contacted Smile line asking for confirmation, but they staten that they had not received any money and that I would be welcome on the tour and pay in cash.

4.Private Riga Art Nouveau Tour

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 5 reviews · 2 hours (approx.) · from $178Top rated

Explore Riga’s Art Nouveau streets with a private guide, flexible route, and expert context from the Opera House to Alberta iela.

“This is a wonderful walking tour of the art nouveau architecture of Riga. Not limited to where all the larger group are focused, you get an informed tour of different building types in a wider set of “new” Riga (outside the walled old town). Emils was fantastic. He studied art history and does this for fun- so he shows real interest and passion. He can recommend great food, shops, etc. It was wonderful to meet him and see an introduction to the highest concentration of Art Nouveau architecture in Europe!”
