Small Group Tour Small groups are usually defined as between 10 and 24 travelers, often less. If you're the kind of person who enjoys more intimate experiences and personal service this is a good choice. All else being equal you will pay a premium for this style vs a larger group tour.
Private Guided Private tours give you the undivided attention of a guide, and often involve special access to sites and unique experiences not available to larger groups. This is a great option for families, couples, and small friend groups. Expect to pay a bit more for the extra service.
Self Guided Tour A travel company plans your itinerary and arranges all the logistics including lodging, local activities, and transportantion. You have the flexibility of a solo trip while still getting the convience and time savings of expert planning. Get 90% of the benefits of a tour, without a guide.
Group Tour Groups are between 25-60 people, typically ~30-40. Usually there will be many opportunities to split off and enjoy meals and excursions in smaller groups. This is the most economical way to travel, saving up to 40% versus booking the same itinerary yourself.
River Cruise These vessels are smaller than most ocean cruisers, limiting which amenties are available. Passenger counts can vary. One of the biggest advantages of a river cruise is the ability to dock at smaller ports and local villages.
Small Ship Cruise Small ship cruises usually have a max passenger count of 500. The primary purpose of these trips is to spend time off the vessel in local ports (e.g. Mediterranean) or experiencing nature (e.g Galapagos or Antarctica). Cabins can vary from budget to luxury.
Large Ship Cruise This is the "floating city" experience, with multiple ways to enjoy your vacation aboard the ship as much as on land. Ships are multiple floors, provide several activities, culinary, and shopping options. They often make fewer stops and have less time available for shore excursions.
Retreats Similar to a self guided tour but staying in one location only with activities and day outings included as a part of the stay.

The trip was brilliant. Pretty much three city breaks rolled into one so lots of sightseeing and history tours! Our trip manager Phil was great and really knowledgeable about the countries (and seeing as it was contikis first time doing this trip, he did amazing). If there were any issues he was always on hand to help, you could tell he was really experienced. The local guides were superb, so friendly and happy to talk about their countries. Not a lot of tourists but the locals were so nice and happy to help with directions or recommendations. Would highly recommend this trip if you’re interested in history or just want a break from the normal destinations!

We have used Global Journeys a few times since 2013 to book our tours, accommodation, and flights; each and every time the level of service has been marvellous. The team at Global Journeys are very knowledgeable, reliable and customer focused. Global Journeys offer very competitive pricing rates. In view of the welcome return to a new normal after a few years in the doldrums for the travel industry due to COVID-19 there is rightfully/thankfully a surge back to booking holidays and tours again. We would highly encourage folks looking to book holidays/tours to at least consider contacting Global Journeys (https://www.globaljourneys.com). They help take the hassle and stress out of planning for your memory making journeys. Life is short, travel as often as you can. Afterall, travel is one of the best forms of education and self-discovery!

Best experience in Vilnius with professional tourguide! It was more like visiting local friend, she enjoyed taking a walk with us, telling lots of legends about famous citizens, colourful life of capital. We get to know history of Vilnius and Lithuania. Basically it's best option for travellers, if they want to see famous places, but also prefer interesting stories. It's not only facts, and aside of main attractions You get to see lots of not so famous, kind of secret places of Vilnius.
Highly recommend it!

Additional details
What You Should Know Before Going On A Latvia Tour
Where is Latvia?
Latvia is a north-eastern European country that is part of the Baltic region of the continent. It shares its borders with fellow Baltic countries Lithuania, Estonia, and Belarus along with Russia. This part of Europe gets its name from the fact the countries share a border with the Baltic Sea that separates them from Scandinavia.
What is the weather like?
Since Latvia is located on the Baltic Sea, it has a cooler climate than other Eastern European countries such as Bosnia. The winters are very cold and much of the country sees a large amount of snow with an average of 82 days a year seeing snow.
In fact, 180 days out of the year Latvia has some type of precipitation whether it is snow or rain. The summers are warmer and a little drier with temperatures usually in the 60s and 70s.
A thing to note about Latvia is the amount of sunlight you will have. Since Latvia is located closer to the Arctic Circle, the hours of sunlight are determined by the season. During the winter the days are very short and in the summer the sun stays out well past traditional times.
Best time to visit
Overall considering weather and festivities, summer is the best time to visit Latvia. The days are long and the weather is comfortable. However, summers are fairly short in Latvia. June to August offer warm days and cool nights. Autumn starts early in Latvia which means cooler temperatures and rainier weather.
If you are looking for a holiday destination or winter vacation, Latvia is still a great place to visit. The rivers and lakes in the country are frozen over and like many European countries, Latvia is bursting at the seams with holiday markets and events.
Latvia Currency
Latvia is part of the European Union. This means that they use the Euro. There are plenty of ATMs in Latvia and many businesses and restaurants take cards. It is recommended to carry some cash with you for market stands or smaller shops that may only take cash.
Latvia Language and Common Phrases
Latvian is spoken in Latvia. The language is closely related to Lithuanian and is considered a Baltic language. Latvian has a few different dialects you may hear around the country depending on where you visit.
Considering that, there are some useful and common phrases to help you during your guided tour of Latvia:
- Paldies - Thank you
- Ludzu - Please
- Sveicinati - Hello
- Uz redzesanos - Good bye
- Ja - Yes
- Ne - No
- Taksometrs - Taxi
- Viesnica - Hotel
Is Latvia Safe
Yes. Latvia is very safe for travelers. The crime rate is low in Latvia, but you should still be aware of your surroundings when visiting tourist areas such as Riga as there have been known to be instances of pickpocketing.
While you’ll be safe walking around Latvia, driving may be another story. Latvia has some of the worst road safety statistics in Europe. This is primarily due to reckless drivers, drivers not following road rules, the road infrastructure is underdeveloped, and very harsh winters. With some of these road issues, visiting Latvia on a tour can be a great option to minimize your worry on the road.
Always Find the Best
On Travelstride you can find 57 trips to Latvia and more than 20,000 trips worldwide ranging from budget to luxury and private guided to group tours and everything in between. Only on Travelstride can you find and compare expert-planned trips from 1,000+ tour operators, cruiselines and local experts.
