Do not book through these people
Do not book with these people. They took our booking and money for the winter (ice) experience, but they fully knew the summer experience was only available (which is half the price). We contacted them but they refused to refund us the difference. Daylight robbery. The actual experience is only €30 at the venue itself, so really you're paying for a personal taxi. A different review said you can easily get the train there. It's a 50 minute car journey, for a 15 minute experience before you're back in the car again. You go down the track twice and it takes less than a minute each time. Happy to discuss further with the company.

Unique experience!
It was an unforgettable experience. We were picked up from the hotel in Riga on time, our driver, Sintija, was very personable and friendly. The drive to Sigulda took about 50 minutes. The experience with the Olympic bobsleigh was unique and definitely recommended!

Book direct
Do not book through this agency, go to the track and pay directly as it is a fraction of the cost. You can easily get a train to Sigulda and walk to the track. The bobsleigh is super fun and only €20

Summer bobsledding!
Everyone was extremely nice and helpful. Just one thing I would do differently… after a long time of driving one quick trip down the bobsled track was too fast. Really should have been at least two trips down. Would have made it more worthwhile and entertaining. The first ride to know what to expect and the second to enjoy.

Bobsleigh - Truly Unique Winter Adventure!: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Riga.
How much does Bobsleigh - Truly Unique Winter Adventure! cost?
+
Prices start at $166 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Riga usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Bobsleigh - Truly Unique Winter Adventure! take?
+
Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Riga is not rushed.
Is Bobsleigh - Truly Unique Winter Adventure! worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 54 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.8/5 across 6 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Riga, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Bobsleigh - Truly Unique Winter Adventure!?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Bobsleigh - Truly Unique Winter Adventure! suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Bobsleigh - Truly Unique Winter Adventure!?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Riga can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Riga and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Bobsleigh - Truly Unique Winter Adventure! start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Riga within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Riga?
+
On Outty we rank every Riga experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include 2 countries! Hill of Crosses, Rundale Palace and Bauska castle, Hill of Crosses and Jelgava Tour 2 Countries in 1 Day, Discover Riga Bike Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Riga?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Riga?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Bobsleigh - Truly Unique Winter Adventure!?
+
Included: Entrance in the Viewing Tower; and In-vehicle air conditioning. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Bobsleigh - Truly Unique Winter Adventure! include hotel pickup?
+

What languages is Bobsleigh - Truly Unique Winter Adventure! offered in?
+
It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Bobsleigh - Truly Unique Winter Adventure!?
+
