About the trip

This seven-night guided tour by Riviera Travel steps through the less-traveled Baltic capitals, starting with Helsinki, spread over 300 islands with its granite railway station and the unusual Sibelius Monument made of steel pipes. A visit to Suomenlinna Fortress offers insight into a site shaped under Swedish, Russian and Finnish rule, complete with walls, tunnels and a living island community.

Crossing the Gulf of Finland, the tour continues in Estonia with a visit to Kadriorg Palace, built by Peter the Great and home to a collection of Western European and Russian art. Tallinn’s medieval old town unfolds on foot with its cobbled streets and 14th-century Viru Gate, combined with a local food tour sampling marzipan in Europe's oldest pharmacy.

The journey ends in Latvia’s capital, Riga, where a local guide reveals the city's medieval labyrinth, including the Three Brothers houses and the Powder Tower. An option to cruise the Daugava River adds another viewpoint to this city, whose central market is housed in repurposed Zeppelin hangars. The pace balances guided touring and free time, with the chance to wander or rest between attractions.
