A three-hour private tour starting at the Central Market and including lunch, sold on Expedia.
The Honest Tours Private Central Market Tour with Lunch is a three-hour private food tour operated by Honest Tours, a Riga guiding company, and sold through Expedia. The tour starts at Riga Central Market, Nēģu iela 7, the market complex in former Zeppelin hangars beside the Daugava River and the Old Town, within the UNESCO-listed Historic Centre of Riga. Unlike the shared tastings that run from the same location, this is a private experience: the group has a private guide to itself, which allows the route, pace and conversation to be adjusted to the party's interests. The listing states that the tour includes a private guide and lunch. The market visit introduces the main product halls, from smoked fish and cured meats to dairy, bread and pickled vegetables, and the lunch follows as a proper sit-down meal rather than a series of small samples, so the balance is a savoury meal rather than a tasting of many sweets. The supplied listing does not specify the exact menu, the restaurant used for lunch or the full route beyond the market, so visitors should confirm these details with the operator on the booking page. Price is shown only as available on the booking page and varies by group size, and the price range is the top tier among Riga food tours, which is consistent with a private guide and a meal. Drinks, transport and personal purchases are not described as included. Because the tour is private, group size is set by the booking party, and the pace and language can be arranged in advance; dietary restrictions and allergies should be raised when booking so lunch can be planned around them. At three hours, the tour is the longest of the market food experiences in Riga, and suits families, small groups of friends and visitors who prefer a flexible and unhurried schedule. Covered halls make it workable in all seasons.
