Latvia is a northern European country located in the Baltic region, bordering Estonia, Belarus, Russia and Lithuania. With a population of just under 2 million, it is a relatively small country. The currency used is the Euro and the official language is Latvian, one of only two of the surviving Baltic languages, along with Lithuanian. The climate in the country is temperate and typical of continental Europe, with well-defined seasons that are cold in winter (with daytime temperatures of around -5°C (23°F) and frequent heavy snowfall) and warm in summer (with temperatures reaching the high 20°Cs (~ 80°F) but cooled by a breeze from the Baltic Sea). 

Latvia’s capital city, Riga, is a charming old city filled with narrow winding streets covered in cobbles. Many tourists spend their time in the city exploring these streets and uncovering the history behind them in the beautiful squares that are home to sights such as the Dome Cathedral. It’s also a fantastic place for shopping, whether at markets or small independent boutiques. It has a nearby seaside resort, Jurmala, and a booming nightlife in the Old Town that draws hen and stag dos from across Europe to taste the local beers and enjoy the friendly atmosphere.

Outside of the city, you’ll find Latvia to be a stunning place with plenty to keep tourists occupied. The coastline boasts some of the best bird watching in Europe with Liepaja on the Kurzeme coast being on sea bird migration paths and home to songbirds and raptors too. Hiking is an exceedingly popular past time in the gorgeous Gauja National Park, which has a river, caves, dense woodland, and lots of wildlife. It also draws tourists with the promise of exciting water sports such as white water rafting and river kayaking.
