  • Visits4u Itineraries: History and Heritage Route Riga, Latvia
    visits4u itineraries : History and Heritage Route Riga, Latvia visits4u is co-funded by the COSME Programme of the European Union Riga, Latvia: History and Heritage Route Description of the town Riga, capital of Latvia is located on the shore of Baltic Sea, on the creek of Daugava river and with almost 700,000 inhabitants and 18 different districts is the biggest metropolis in the Baltics. Riga was founded in 1201 and is a former Hanseatic League member. Riga's historical center is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, noted for its Art Nouveau/Jugendstil architecture and 19th century wooden architecture. Over the centuries, the city has developed as a center for trade, transit and later became an industrial center. Riga is also known for being a green and blooming city – large and well- kept parks, romantic squares, beautiful gardens. Already since the 18 th century, Regan’s have taken great interest in the art of gardening, creating lush public parks and picturesque squares. Unhurried walks, colourful flowerbeds, leisurely sitting in benches or lawns in a park, bird songs and leaves rustling in the wind – this is Riga where city meets Nature.

    YOUR O.A.T. ADVENTURE TRAVEL PLANNING GUIDE® The Baltic Capitals & St. Petersburg 2022 Small Groups: 8-16 travelers—guaranteed! (average of 13) Overseas Adventure Travel ® The Leader in Personalized Small Group Adventures on the Road Less Traveled 1 Dear Traveler, At last, the world is opening up again for curious travel lovers like you and me. And the O.A.T. Enhanced! The Baltic Capitals & St. Petersburg itinerary you’ve expressed interest in will be a wonderful way to resume the discoveries that bring us so much joy. You might soon be enjoying standout moments like these: What I love about the little town of Harmi, Estonia, is that it has a lot of heart. Its residents came together to save their local school, and now it’s a thriving hub for community events. Harmi is a new partner of our Grand Circle Foundation, and you’ll live a Day in the Life here, visiting the school and a family farm, and sharing a farm-to-table lunch with our hosts. I love the outdoors and I love art, so my walk in the woods with O.A.T. Trip Experience Leader Inese turned into something extraordinary when she led me along the path called the “Witches Hill” in Lithuania. It’s populated by 80 wooden sculptures of witches, faeries, and spirits that derive from old pagan beliefs. You’ll go there, too (and I bet you’ll be as surprised as I was to learn how prevalent those pagan practices still are.) I was also surprised—and saddened—to learn how terribly the Baltic people were persecuted during the Soviet era.

  • Baltic Capitals: Riga & Vilnius with Cicely Taylor and Guest Lecturer
    Riga Baltic Capitals: Riga & Vilnius With Cicely Taylor And Guest Lecturer Professor Alexei Leporc 10th – 16th May 2017 The Ultimate Travel Company Escorted Tours Vinius Baltic Capitals: Riga & Vilnius with Cicely Taylor And Guest Lecturer Professor Alexei Leporc 10th – 16th May 2017 Contact Sophie Pullan Direct Line 020 7386 4677 Telephone 020 7386 4620 Fax 020 7386 8652 Email [email protected] Cicely Taylor After many years spent devising and leading walking holidays for Serenissima and other travel companies, Cicely turned to accompanying rather less energetic touring and cruise groups, sometimes together with her artist and writer husband Max as a lecturer. With well over a hundred tours to numerous destinations under her belt, she continues to embark on new adventures with un-dimmed enthusiasm. Professor Alexei Leporc Professor Alexei Leporc is a Curator of Western European Art at the Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg. He is also Professor of 15th – 20th Century West European art and architecture at St. Petersburg Europe University. He regularly accompanies our groups in St. Petersburg and those who have travelled with him will be familiar with his fluent command of English and unmatched knowledge of history and architecture. Detailed Itinerary Professor Alexei Leporc, curator of the State Hermitage St. Petersburg, accompanied by Cicely Taylor, gives an illuminating introduction to two of the Baltic's most attractive cities, and the surrounding areas of Lithuania, fast being recognised as one of Europe’s gems. Begin in Riga, the capital of Latvia, which underwent a renaissance after gaining independence from Soviet occupation in 1991. The medieval Old Town at its heart has been perfectly preserved and fully restored after forty years of neglect.
