Add dates

Experience the real thrill of bobsleigh pilot and adrenaline rush at a speed of up to 120 km/h at Olympic Bobsleigh track in Sigulda where you can try bobsleigh luge and skeleton. The Winter Bobsleigh is available from November until March and this is a fantastic winter experience with positive emotions you definitely want to try at least once in your life.

However, if you would like to try the same experience during May – September season, you are still welcome to try our Summer Sigulda Bobsleigh Experience and enjoy the ultimate speed of bobsleigh on wheels then!

Your activity begins with getting into on a winter soft bob (also called “Vuchko” or “Skelet”) or the mightly Olympic Bob, slowly setting off and then reaching a crazy speed of 80-90 km/h, so that at some turns you almost feel like lifting off and flying away from the track!

Located in Sigulda, a cosy and picturesque town half-hour ride from Riga, this is the only Bobsleigh (or sometimes called “Bobsled”) track in Eastern Europe, built in 1986, 1km long, 121m elevation and 17 over-banks giving an impressive maximum speed of 120 km/h.

Competitions

Will be closed on the following dates due to the state competitions:
– 16th – 26th January 2020
– 10th – 16th February 2020

      Yes we really enjoyed the experience. The whole service from my initial contact until being dropped off after was really good. The price was competitive in comparison to other quotes I received for our group and we were even given a discount based on the numbers we had. Our guide was excellent and I would like her to know we really appreciated her her help and advice on the day.
      The bobsleigh ride itself was worth the long journey as it is something we will never forget!

      The Team at Riga Guide arranged a bobsleigh trip for the 3 of us from Australia. They did a great job to arrange this for us and the actual trip on the day was a smooth as silk. Pick up was on time and the trip there and back was great. I will be using they again for sure. Great job Team.
      Thanks from the 3 Australians.

    We had a catamaran trip to Baltic see, 9 of us, having a party for my friend. It was such a great experience.... Everything was organized so well. They pick us up from our accommodation exactly on time. Our guide Stephanie is a lovely, fun person, very beautiful lady, enthusiastic and active. Thankful to her we had so much fun. Also, thanks to our bus driver Aleksandrs to drive us safely home.read more

    My boyfriend and I went shooting and choose the riffle package including an AK-47, we also bought extra bullets for the... AK-47. It was so much fun! 👌 It is with organized transportation and the people were very nice and friendly. I was a little nervous but the instructor was very calming and helpful, and I we had a really great time! 😀 We definitely recommend this experience! 👍read more

    A surreal experience for anyone who has never held/shot a gun in his/her life. It was scary but weirdly exciting. Sure... to get the adrenaline pumping! Picked up and dropped back off at the hotel. The shooting range is set inside in closed off rooms. Very nice people, and very flexible - if you want to shoot a different weapon, you can browse the catalog there and pay extra on sight.read more
