“Rekommenderar starkt denna turen. Vår guide Rolands var otroligt engagerad, kunnig och hade en kärlek för naturen. Han fotade under turen och skickade till oss senare. Uppskattat👍🏻. Fantastiska vyer från utsiktstornet. Vi var där en onsdag i april och mötte inte en människa ute på myrarna, bara fågelsång och lugn. Säkert en annan upplevelse under sommaren och kan definitivt tänka oss att återkomma då men nu njöt vi av ensamheten.”

Review of the Great Ķemeri Bog and Slokas Lake hike, with raised bogs, flooded alder forest, hotel pickup, and guide Rolands.
“The walk through Kemeri bog and Swamp forest were perfect! Rolands was very knowledgeable about all the nature, animal species, conservation, and also Latvian culture in general. It was a relaxing walk through two very scenic routes but not tiring at all super manageable. Rolands was also very friendly, and clearly very passionate about ecology which was absolutely lovely to see. As a solo woman traveller I always seek guides that I feel safe with and I can definitely say I felt very comfortable throughout the whole experience. It’s rare to find a tour guide so knowledgeable and friendly. I learnt so much about the nature of the national park…”
