Whether you’re looking for a snow-filled winter holiday or a relaxing spring retreat in the sun, there’s no wrong time to book your flight to Latvia.
Peak Season: Latvia experiences its hottest weather and long daylight hours during the summer months. Latvia’s cultural calendar is also packed during the summer months, and the increase in Latvian tourism brought about by Latvia’s summer festivals and the celebration of Latvian Independence day make domestic Latvia flights tricky to book during this time as well.
Off-peak Season: Cheap flights to Latvia are plentiful between the months of December and March, when visitors shy away from the winter chill. The ample snowfalls make for charming winter scenes in Riga and the Latvian countryside, and Gauja National Park is particularly stunning with its frosted pine trees and snow-covered forests.
After your cheap flight to Latvia lands, the best way to get around the country is by train. Latvia’s far-reaching rail network connects all major Latvian cities with other points in Northern and Central Europe. Busses are also a popular, affordable alternative to Latvia flights if you’re traveling from other points in Europe or within Latvia, and ferries arrive in the Riga from ports in Germany and Sweden.The following chart gives approximate journey times from Riga (in hours and minutes) to other major cities and towns in Latvia.
