Automatikusan a legerősebb jelre kapcsol a következőkön: Tele2, LMT.
Beállítás
Állítsd be az eSIM-et még indulás előtt, körülbelül egy perc az egész. Egy koppintás a linkre, érkezéskor bekapcsolod, és fent vagy.

9 csomag érhető el Lettország területére, 3 GB-tól 50 GB-ig. Az érvényesség 1 naptól 180 napig tart. Ezek közül 9 fut 5G-n, ott, ahol a helyi hálózat tudja.
6 csomag tölthető fel úgy, hogy nem kell hozzá második eSIM-et telepítened. A csomagok ezeken futnak: Tele2, LMT.
Az élő katalógusunkból számolva, nem marketingszám — a szakasz feletti csomaglista ugyanez az adat.
Regionális csomag nem fedi le Lettország területét — itt csak az egyországos csomag jöhet szóba, ami amúgy is olcsóbb szokott lenni.
A(z) Lettország úti célra szóló utazási eSIM egy digitális SIM, amit a telefonod tölt le — nincs műanyag kártya, nincs reptéri átvevőpult. Online megveszed, koppintasz az e-mailben kapott telepítési linkre (QR-kód is van ugyanabban a levélben), és felkerül egy második vonal a meglévő SIM-ed mellé. Alvó marad, amíg meg nem érkezel Lettország területére, aztán magától rákapcsolódik erre: Tele2, LMT — ezen: 5G, ahol van, máshol LTE. Az otthoni számod közben ugyanúgy megy hívásra és SMS-re; az eSIM csak az adatot viszi.
A térkép, az üzenetküldés és a taxiappok keveset esznek: nagyjából napi 300–500 MB. Ha jönnek a fotók, a közösségi média és néha egy videó, már inkább napi 1 GB. Egy hétre az 5 GB kényelmes; két hétre, megosztásra vagy sok videóra válassz 10 GB-ot vagy többet — vagy egy feltölthető csomagot, amit út közben bővítesz. A(z) Lettország csomagok 4,80 EUR ártól indulnak, 7 méretben, és mindegyiknél ott a GB-onkénti ár, így magától látszik, melyik éri meg.
Nem. A(z) Lettország úti célra szóló utazási eSIM helyi adatcsomag, nem nemzetközi roaming: előre látod az árat, és nem jön MB-onkénti számla az otthoni szolgáltatódtól. Ez az EU-n kívül számít igazán — ott ugyanis nem véd meg a „roamingolj úgy, mint otthon” szabály. Állítsd be az eSIM-et adatvonalnak, az otthoni SIM-eden pedig kapcsold ki az adatroamingot, és hazaérve sem ér meglepetés. Telepítés előtt bármikor visszajár a teljes ár, szóval előre megvenni sem kockázat.
Rupjmaize
Dark sour rye bread, dense and slightly sweet, baked in long loaves. It is the foundation of the cuisine rather than an accompaniment to it, and Latvians take its quality personally.
Riga Central Market, where several bakers sell whole loaves cut to order.
Sklandrausis
An open rye pastry case filled with a layer of potato and a layer of sweetened carrot, from the Courland coast. It holds an EU protected traditional speciality designation.
Bakeries in Kurzeme and the Livonian coast villages; market stalls in Riga.
Grey peas with bacon
Pelēkie zirņi ar speķi — large grey peas boiled soft and served with fried onion and pork fat, eaten with soured milk. Plain, filling and about as Latvian as food gets.
Traditional restaurants and canteens; a fixture at Christmas.
Pīrāgi
Small crescent-shaped buns filled with diced smoked bacon and onion. Served at every celebration and sold by the bagful.
Bakeries everywhere; the market halls in Riga.
Aukstā zupa
Cold beetroot soup on a kefir base, an alarming shade of pink, with dill, cucumber and half a boiled egg. Summer food and genuinely good in heat.
Almost every menu from May to August.
Smoked fish
Baltic sprats and flounder smoked over alder in coastal smokehouses. Sprats in oil in a flat tin are the export version; the fresh-smoked fish on the coast is a different thing entirely.
Roadside smokehouses along the Kurzeme and Vidzeme coast, particularly around Salacgrīva and Roja.
Jāņu siers
A yellow curd cheese set with caraway seeds, made specifically for the midsummer Jāņi festival and eaten with beer.
Markets in June; available year-round in supermarkets but the point is the season.
Rupjmaizes kārtojums
Layers of toasted rye breadcrumbs, cranberry or lingonberry jam and whipped cream, served in a glass. A dessert built from the same bread as everything else.
Traditional restaurants across the country.
Kvass
A lightly fermented drink made from rye bread, barely alcoholic, sold from tanks on street corners in summer.
Street kiosks and markets from late spring.
Riga Black Balsam
A very dark herbal bitter in a ceramic bottle, made to an eighteenth-century recipe. Drunk neat, mixed with blackcurrant juice, or stirred into coffee.
Bars across Riga; the blackcurrant version is the gentler introduction.
Riga Old TownRiga
A UNESCO-listed medieval core of guild halls, the reconstructed House of the Blackheads and the Three Brothers houses, with a lift up St Peter's spire for the view over the roofs and the Daugava.
a day
Riga Art Nouveau districtRiga
Alberta iela and the streets around it carry one of the densest concentrations of Jugendstil architecture anywhere, much of it by Mikhail Eisenstein, with faces and masks worked into the facades.
half a day
JūrmalaJūrmala
A long white-sand beach backed by pine and streets of wooden summer villas, half an hour from Riga by train. Cars entering the town pay a daily charge; the train avoids it.
a day
Sigulda and the Gauja valleySigulda
Sandstone cliffs above a river valley with Turaida's red-brick castle, the graffiti-covered Gūtmanis cave, a cable car strung across the gorge and a working bobsleigh track.
a day
CēsisCēsis
A small town around a ruined Livonian Order castle, toured by candle lantern that you carry yourself up the dark tower stairs.
half a day
Rundāle Palacenear Bauska
A Baroque palace by Rastrelli, the architect of the Winter Palace, built for the Duke of Courland and restored over decades. The formal gardens are the equal of the interiors.
half a day
KuldīgaKuldīga
A wooden-house town on the Venta, where the river falls over a rock shelf several hundred metres wide — the broadest waterfall in Europe, if not a tall one — beside a long brick road bridge.
a day
Cape KolkaKolka
The point where the Gulf of Riga meets the open Baltic, with visible colliding currents offshore and a shore of drifted timber. The Livonian villages along the road are the last of a nearly vanished language community.
a day
Ķemeri National Parknear Jūrmala
A boardwalk loop across the Great Ķemeri Bog, over pools and stunted pines, with a tower to see the whole expanse. Best at sunrise, when the mist sits on the water.
half a day
Liepāja and KarostaLiepāja
A port city with a music-themed centre, and north of it Karosta, a former closed naval district with a beachfront fortress being eaten by the sea and a military prison open to visitors.
two days
Train
Vivi runs the passenger network. The electrified lines out of Riga to Jūrmala, Sigulda, Cēsis and Aizkraukle are frequent and are the easiest way to reach the two most-visited day trips.
low
Intercity coach
Coaches reach the towns the railway does not, including Kuldīga, Ventspils and the Latgale lakes. Riga's coach terminal sits beside the Central Market. International services run to Tallinn and Vilnius.
low
Riga city transport
Rīgas satiksme runs trams, trolleybuses and buses on the e-talons ticket, bought at kiosks and machines. Buying on board costs more than buying in advance.
very low
Car hire
The main highways are good; secondary roads in Kurzeme and Latgale are often gravel and slow, especially in spring thaw. Distances are short but journey times are longer than the map suggests.
moderate
Ride-hailing
Bolt is used constantly in Riga and works in the larger towns. It is normally cheaper than a metered street taxi, and settles the fare in the app rather than at the kerb.
low
Taxirendelő appok
Bolt, Yandex Go
Bolt is the default and covers Riga thoroughly, with useful coverage in Liepāja, Daugavpils and Jelgava. Uber does not operate. Street taxis in the old town have a reputation for high fixed rates, so use the app.

| Restoration of Independence Day | 4 May | National holiday days after 1 May, often bridged into a long break. |

| Song and Dance Celebration | every five years, in summer | Not a public holiday, but tens of thousands of singers converge on Riga and accommodation is effectively unavailable. Check whether your dates fall in one. |
| Proclamation Day of the Republic of Latvia | 18 November | The national day, with a torchlit procession and fireworks over the Daugava in Riga. |
| Christmas | 24, 25 and 26 December | Three days of holiday; Christmas Eve is the family evening and shops close early. |
| New Year's Eve | 31 December | Public holiday from the afternoon; Riga's old town is very busy. |
