Best way to explore the City.
Fantastic tour of this beautiful City. Our guide, Dom, was extremely knowledgeable and made the tour so fun and informative. Would definitely recommend.
via Tripadvisor
Family Fun
Easy to master, and a great way to see the city. They ensured everyone was comfortable on the seagways before we started the tour.

Great fun and great memories
We booked this as a fun way to see the sights in Riga. We had never used segways before and so we had to learn from zero. Thomas and the guys were great in the initial training and within minutes we were good to go. It was really a great way to tour the city because it opens up pathways and streets as route options and it's just great fun. As a result we saw a large area of the city without having to take a step. Our guide Thomas was very informative and explained the history of the city in an interesting way. Great memories to take with us. Highly recommended.

Fun way to see Riga
Fun way to see the city and learn a lot of history. We covered a lot of ground and saw a lot of sights, and it was very fun riding on the segways. We were given a quick tutorial on how to drive them, they were easy to get ahold of. Our tour guide was great!
via Viator
Superb Segway tour of Riga
Our guide was excellent and very knowledgeable about everything that we might reasonably want to know. She was friendly and took great care with our wellbeing on the Segways as well as explaining where we would be going next. There was a wide range of sights to see and learn about and we didn't feel that any of the 2 hours was wasted. Superb value for money - highly recommended.

Why this scores 73
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
The best of Riga segway tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Riga.
How much does The best of Riga segway tour cost?
+
Prices start at $108 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 The best of Riga segway tour take?
+
Plan for about 1.5 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 The best of Riga segway tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 73 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 47 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 The best of Riga segway tour?
+
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 The best of Riga segway tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book The best of Riga segway tour?
+
Around 16 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 1.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does The best of Riga segway tour 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.
