Very good day. Especially the park was amazing. A very unique experience. The Jūrmala Beach was also nice to dip our toes in after a warm day.

Itinerary
At Ķemeri National Park, travelers will enjoy a guided walk along the famous Ķemeri Bog Boardwalk — a scenic trail over raised wetlands, moss-covered landscapes, and small lakes. The guide will explain the unique ecosystem, local flora and fauna, and the cultural significance of bogs in Latvia. It’s a peaceful nature experience filled with fresh air, panoramic views, and great photo opportunities.
In the historic resort area of Ķemeri, travelers will explore the peaceful park and elegant remains of Latvia’s once-famous spa destination. The guide will share stories of the town’s golden age in the 19th and 20th centuries, when mineral waters and therapeutic mud attracted visitors from across the Russian Empire and later the Soviet Union. Travelers will see restored landmarks like the water tower and stroll through the tree-lined avenues of this gradually reviving health retreat.
In Jūrmala, Latvia’s most beloved seaside town, travelers will enjoy a relaxing visit to the beach and the lively pedestrian street, Jomas iela. The guide will introduce the history of Jūrmala as a spa and resort destination, pointing out charming wooden architecture and local landmarks. Travelers will have free time to stroll along the Baltic Sea shoreline, explore small shops or cafés, and take in the relaxed coastal atmosphere.

Really enjoyed seeing the bog and the cute beachside town of Jurmala! Both areas were beautiful and the tour guide was great!
Excellent Tour. Great to see a bit more of Latvia whilst visiting Riga. Informative guide. Loved the boardwalk. Really recommend.
Good trip, appreciated the opportunity to get out of Riga and visit the unique bog and nice beach! It felt a little rushed but that may have been due to the number of places we went! Overall enjoyed the outing!
I had an awesome experience touring the beautiful Kemeri Bog and Jurmala with my guide, Maria. Maria was very knowledgeable about the bog, the history of Kemeri's sanitorium and park and the wooden architecture of Jurmala. She also helpfully called the restaurant where I might have dropped my wallet after the tour, allowing me to locate it :)! I highly recommend this tour for anyone who loves basking in nature as the view from the observation tower in the bog is simply breathtaking!
Absolutely brilliant tour. Our guide, Erlens, was one of the best guides we've ever had. He went above and beyond with his attention to detail, his knowledge, his easy-going attitude and genuineness. The bog boardwalk in Kemeri National Park was very scenic and a great trip into Latvian countryside. We had a lovely drive and walk around Jurmala, and were given lots of information by Erlens.
Erlens was a fantastic guide who was friendly and informative. He provided water, suggested alternatives if we desired them and ensured we spent the necessary time at each stop (Kemeri bog, Jurmula town and the Black sea beach). Thank you for a wonderful tour.
Erlens was an excellent tour guide! He provided so much information about the area and Latvia in general. I learned so much. This was an amazing tour and I highly recommend it.
Wonderful! Great ! Fantastic!Amazing !☺️😀 Wonderful! Great ! Fantastic!Amazing !☺️😀 Wonderful! Great ! Fantastic!Amazing !☺️😀
We had a fabulous and memorable day with Erlens. He was fun, enthusiastic, and passionate about sharing information about Latvia. He was intentional about making sure the day was special in every way. Erlens is an outstanding guide!!
The fresh air in the National Park was amazing! It was also a new experience to walk though a bog and to witness the changes in plant life, water, and birds on that ecosystem. Jurmala was a complete bit nice contrast to the National Park in the sense that this town is of careful human creation rather than of the natural creation exhibited by the Park. The Baltic coast beach was also quite a contrast to the bog in the Park! Erlens was a fantastic tour guide: expertly knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive.
We had a great time with our guide Erlens. He structured the tour according to our wishes and told us a lot of details about the places we visited. We can definitely recommend the tour to all people who love nature. The views are amazing.
Our guide, Erlens, is very friendly and welcoming. He shared nearly everything about Latvia with us. The itinerary is very nice as we got to see the nature of Latvia.
We had an amazing time with Elvis :) he made the day so enjoyable for us We didn’t want to leave Latvia and come home It’s a beautiful country and he showed us all the best and most beautiful things around the area.
Great guide and exciting information. Beautiful hike through the wetland. Highly recommended.
Two completely different attractions. Once in nature with beautiful quiet moments. Then Jurmala with the promenade and the beach by the Baltic Sea.
Orlando molto bravo, gentile e paziente. Una persona bella da conoscere. Parco molto interessante e anche la spiaggia e la cittadina sul mare ci sono piaciute. Passeggiata non impegnativa adatta a tutti, zanzare presenti per parte del cammino (zona foresta) ma lui ci ha dato lo spray anzizanzare. Consiglio cmq pantaloni lunghi e felpa x proteggersi. Portare costume pero per nuotatina in spiaggia (acqua assolutam non fredda, spogliatoi in spiaggia).
You are in a late 19th century Mood with 21st century comfort. Only happiness, missing only the carriages in these beautiful streets. Why not one day??
