Riga → Sigulda: key facts

Private transfer, Riga Airport (RIX) to Sigulda: the car (1–3 passengers) is €90 and the van (4–8) is €130, a set price for the vehicle that does not change at checkout. Expect 72 km on the road via A2 and P132; about 1h 20min off-peak, 1h 20min – 1h 40min in rush hour.

Pickup: The driver waits in the Arrivals Hall (sector E) of the passenger terminal, after baggage reclaim and the customs exit, holding a sign with your name. The booking includes flight monitoring and an hour of free waiting from touchdown; your bags are loaded for you.

Sigulda is a small town in the Gauja river valley, north-east of Riga and about 60 km from the airport by road. The route crosses or skirts the city and then follows the A2 main road north-east through pine forests towards Sigulda. There are no road tolls for cars. Traffic leaving Riga can be slow on weekday afternoons, and in summer and during the autumn colour season many day visitors head for the valley at weekends.

Sigulda sits on the high southern bank of the Gauja, inside Gauja National Park. The town centre around the railway and bus station is a short walk from the ruins of the medieval Sigulda Castle and the New Castle, with Krimulda Manor on the opposite bank of the valley. Turaida Museum Reserve, with its red-brick castle tower, lies a few kilometres north across the river. Hotels and guesthouses are reached directly by car; the valley is popular for walking in summer and autumn and for the bobsleigh track in winter.

Public transport instead: Rīgas satiksme bus 22 from Riga Airport, bus stop in front of the passenger terminal to Grēcinieku iela (next to the Old Town) and Autoosta (Riga International Coach Terminal) — about 40 min, daily from early morning until about 00:40; night bus N22 runs hourly after the regular service ends. Vivi train Sigulda line from Riga Central Station (Rīga-Pasažieru) to Sigulda station, 1 change. No direct public transport from the airport to Sigulda. Travellers first take bus 22 to central Riga and then a Vivi train from Riga Central Station to Sigulda.
