Riga Ghosts & Legends Tour: Step into the fun and mysterious side of Riga’s Old Town with our Riga Ghosts & Legends Tour.
Discover eerie legends, hidden stories, and ghostly tales that reveal a completely different side of the city!
On this tour, we’ll explore gruesome and fascinating stories—bodies said to be buried within church and castle walls (and whether there’s any truth to it), the strange sculpture of a head on a plate at Saint John’s Church, and Riga’s chilling past, from plagues and cemeteries to the secrets beneath your feet.
We’ll also uncover the mystical masks and creatures that were believed to protect Riga’s buildings and dive into eerie tales of Livonian werewolves and the city’s witch trials.
Along the way, hear the legend of Riga Black Balsam, Latvia’s famous national drink, and learn the local secrets of how to use it like a true Latvian. Plus, get insider tips for making the most of Riga after dark.
This tour sets the perfect mood for the evening, spooky, entertaining, and full of surprises!
