2 Winter Activities in Latvia to Build a Day Around

1.Bobsleigh – Truly Unique Winter Adventure!

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 6 reviews · from $168Our pick

Meet your driver, learn the basics, then race down a purpose-built track in a summer bobsleigh on wheels. You can share the bob with up to three other people, depending on the vehicle setup, while a qualified driver handles the run. Hotel pickup and drop-off in Riga are included.

“Everyone was extremely nice and helpful. Just one thing I would do differently… after a long time of driving one quick trip down the bobsled track was too fast. Really should have been at least two trips down. Would have made it more worthwhile and entertaining. The first ride to know what to expect and the second to enjoy.”
