Things to do in Riga & Sigulda (Quick Guide to Latvia)

In this Quick Guide to Latvia I show you some fun things to do in Riga and Sigulda like Biking, Wind Tunnel flying, Climbing, Sledding...and Drinking ;)

--- equipment used to produce this video ---

I traveled to Riga for only 4 days and managed to see and do a lot in that short given timeframe. Riga is the largest city of the Baltics and offers a lot of cool things to do in Riga itself but also just a short train ride out of the center in Sigulda.

This video showcases the combination of a city trip and and action packed day out in the nature. My personal highlight has been the flight in the vertical wind tunnel "Aerodium" near Sigulda - if you feel like you can even go Bungee Jumping there.
