“ Tha shooting experience was awsome!!! :-) We really enjoyed shooting with the AK-101, Glock and revolver. We where 2 men and 3 women and I think the women had a really positive experience as us men had. :-) Thanks a lot to the cute guide as well ;-) ”May, 2011

“ Staying here felt like home away from home, which is everything you can hope for when travelling, I believe. Also, the location is superb! Just a short stroll away from the rather touristy old town. With lots of shops and Cafes around, it is the best part of town in Riga. ”April, 2011

“ We had a great time with all the activity's although planning of the activitys seemed a bit difficult because of the Easter weekend. Delays, cancelations and changements in the scheduled activitys. This was a bit disappointing. Although you all solved it very good with some good replacements of activitys and a few extra drinks. The guide, Kristine, made everything good for us. It was a pleasure for us to have her as guide. Thanks. Regards Thijs ”April, 2011

“ We did the gun shooting, wind tunnel and sumo. We had a lots of fun during all of the activities and it was well organised. The people from rigaoutthere or at the activities were nice and professional The gun shootin was a bit expensive we thought. As for the rest it was all worth it. Thank you again ”April, 2011

“ Absolutely fantastic. After an early arrival at the airport we were welcomed by one of the Riga Out There guides, Graham. Immediately the tone for a good weekend was set. Graham invited us to our "Limo" pick up service where we were pleasantly surprised by a beautiful girl that accomodated us for an hour (no further words needed there). We were dropped off at our hostel and our guide showed us around town to give us an insight on were to go and where not to go. Very helpful if you want to have a good time without any problems. Around midday we were again accompanied by another guide, Christine, that took us shooting.....all I can say is that it is worth every penny. Absolutely fantastic and amazing to shoot with an AK-47!! All in All we enjoyed our stay in Riga and I honestly feel a big part of this is due to excellent "Riga Out There" services. Great Job guys. One thing that you have to DO in Riga.....using "Riga Out There" services Next year Tallinn for us......definately gonna call up on your services again!!! ”March, 2011

“ The Out There team were absolutely magnificent from the moment I made the initial booking to us getting on the plane to leave Riga. Email communications were always quick and efficient, and Vita dealt with numerous changes to the plan, including a last minute change about 3 days before the trip. The weekend itself went absolutely perfectly, with the transport being there exactly when it said it would be every time. Svetlana was an incredible guide, and made a huge contribution to our enjoyment of the weekend by giving us great advice about where to go and where not to go, always with a smile, and Graham came and found us one night just to give us a tip on a good night out. So all in all, I couldn't recommend Out There more, and if I'm ever (un)lucky enough to be organising a stag weekend again I will certainly pick a country that Out There operates in. Thanks for the best weekend of my life! Peter Adams United Kingdom ”March, 2011

“ Same as last time shooting was very good, very fun, a must do when you go to Riga. We were well welcomed, the woman looking after the firing range is very sympathic. Further more we would like to give a special thanks to Kristine, our guide, she is very professional and efficient. Besides, we had a passport issue as one of us had his wallet stolen the night just before and Kristine after the shooting took almost two hours of her time taking us to the police station, doing the talking and taking care of everything. Thanks to her we were able to solve our problem, on our own it would have been much more difficult. Kind regards, Nicholas Cargo / Arnaud Sabatier / Etienne Barsby ”February, 2011

“ Big Thanks to all the guys at Riga Out There, you made the organising of my brother Stag weekend so easy. Everything went so smoothly and I’ve had so much good feedback from the other guys in the group. Some saying that it was the best weekend of their lives or "This weekend was legendry and it’s something I will never forget"(The Stag - Daniel). The Bobsleigh is a must, such a wicked experience and the limo transfer with the dancers was a great start to the weekend, especially as it was 11.00am and sipping champagne. Austin - You should be very proud with your work force. Vita has been excellent with her emails and for being really organised with arranging my itinerary, but the real credit lies with Graham Williams. What a great and professional guy, he dealt with all the groups enquiries and was excellent to have around. He was strong as his word when he said that he had a blinding weekend in place for us all. He's a real credit to the Riga Out There company. Please let me know if you want any photos of Dan in his Cool Runnings bobsleigh outfit, It would be hilarious if you could post something on your website. Cheers Paul Frankland ”January, 2011

“ Our group of five had a wonderful visit to Riga thanks to Riga Out There. The staff was very attentive to our needs and easy to contact in the event of any questions. Our tour guide, Alex, was EXTREMELY knowledgeable about EVERYTHING we could have ever wanted to know about ANYTHING. I hope to make it back to Latvia again in the Summer for another Riga Out There experience. Thank you! ”November, 2010

“ We booked the transfers, the cycle tour and the ak'47 shooting. Everything was arranged perfectly. All transfers were on time, the staff was very helpfull and it was very plesant all activities started at our hotel. The cycle tour gives a great impression of Riga. The transfer is an easy way to get to your hotel and back, they also gave us some information about the city and provided some help with our other activities. ”October, 2010
