Built in 1330 as a base for the Livonian Order, the castle was destroyed several times during battles with the local towns¨people. After the Order’s destruction, the various occupiers of the city housed their governors inside. Latvia’s first post-Cold War president Guntis Ulmanis made it his official office to continue the tradition begun by Latvia’s presidents in the 1920’s and 1930’s. It also houses the National History Museum of Latvia.

Steph, our guide, was absolutely brilliant. Picked us up from our hotel and told us all about Riga on the commute to and from the bobsleigh track. The g-force bobsleigh was amazing (it feels like a roller-coaster) and we didn't have to wait long. There's also an observation deck where you can view the national park.
The only downside was an error by the office staff overcharging us for the experience, which put a downer on the day, as I was told I wasn't able to do the bobsleigh unless we paid more. This was eventually resolved by the owner when he apologised for the error and confirmed no further payment was needed. I advise you pay the balance in full before the trip to avoid incompetent staff trying to overcharge you.
