Riga Cruise Holidays

Riga cruises take you to one of the most rewarding Baltic cruise destinations: an exceptionally enjoyable city that combines a medieval old town, splendid art nouveau architecture, lively cosmopolitan chic and bracing Baltic beaches. Most Riga cruise visitors will be happy to wander the wonderfully atmospheric Old Town: a delightful ensemble of medieval cobbled streets, charming squares and fairytale spires. Highlights include the Town Hall Square, the Dome Cathedral and 15th century St Peter’s Church. Every Riga cruise visit should also take in Europe’s finest surviving collection of early 20th century German-inspired Art Nouveau architecture, found in the New Town and Riga Central District. Fine parks and picturesque canals and waterways provide excellent walks. Find your ideal Riga cruise with directline-cruises.
