OFF-ROADING ADVENTURE
IN THE FOREST
The forests that surround Riga have a wealth
of terrain which is just perfect for off-roading.
It’s a great way to explore the beautiful
landscape. With Red Fox Tours, you’ll be given
a short driving lesson before being let loose
in a 4x4 vehicle. You might think yourself a
dab hand behind the wheel but this is sure
to challenge you. All members of the party
must have a full driving licence if they wish
to get behind the wheel. Alternatively, Riga
offers exceptional go-karting experiences so
nobody needs to miss out.
AN EXHILARATING SKY DIVE
Riga really is like a giant playground, but
action isn’t just limited to the ground – take to
the sky and jump from a plane at the height
of two miles. This heart pounding activity
is for anyone who craves adventure, but
don’t fret, as it’s not a solo jump! In tandem
with a skydiving expert, you will experience
the ultimate adrenaline rush; after a quick
training session (approximately 30 minutes
long) you’ll be freefalling before you know it.
Travel at terminal velocity until you reach an
altitude of 1,200 metres, at which point your
jump master will pull open the canopy, giving
you another six minutes to enjoy the amazing
bird’s eye view.
