Coach Hire
Latvia

We have been running coaches in Latvia since 2014, and almost everything here radiates from Riga. The capital has the largest airport in the Baltic states, Riga International (RIX), and it sits in the middle of the corridor that links Vilnius to Tallinn, which is why a Latvian booking is so often one leg of a wider Baltic itinerary rather than a self-contained trip. The country is small enough that any point in it is reachable from Riga in a day: the Baltic coast at Jurmala is half an hour away, the ports of Ventspils and Liepaja are a few hours west, and Daugavpils sits in the southeast.

Roads in Latvia carry no tolls for coaches, so a quote here has nothing to add for motorways, and the main corridor north and south is a straightforward drive. The conditions are the part that needs planning. Winters are real: the law requires winter tyres from 1 December to 1 March, daylight is short, and the long exposed stretches between towns are where a driver who knows the roads earns their keep. We fit our vehicles accordingly and build honest timings into winter schedules rather than quoting summer running times.

The groups we carry across Latvia range from conference and corporate delegations in Riga to cruise passengers, incentive groups, wedding parties, school and university trips, and multi-day tours passing through on the Baltic capitals route. Whatever the size, one coordinator handles the booking from the first enquiry to the final drop-off, so there is a single point of contact rather than a call centre. The written quote sets out the driver, fuel, parking and driver hours in advance, with no extras added afterwards. The fleet is sized to the group, from a seven-seat Mercedes V-Class through Sprinter minibuses up to nineteen and Tourismo coaches for around sixty, so nobody pays for empty seats.
