Here are my suggestions for a break in Latvia

1. Artist/Potter – making clay items, painting on clay, weaving, making musical instruments clay drums, rain sticks that sort of thing. 3L per person for a 3 hour session
2. Visit to a goat farm– eating goats cheese, seeing the goats and doing some traditional Latvian dancing 10-15L per group (depends on the size of the group)
3. Visiting museums 1.50LVL per person.
4. Turaida Castle, nr Sigulda sculpture park, castle, Latvian jewellery based on ancient Latvian designs (http://www.travelswithsheila.com/turaida-castle-mu.....at.html%29. At the moment I can’t find the prices for this but should be no more than 2-3LVLs per person.
5. Mushroom picking and making a traditional Latvian meal – 3L per person.
6. Soviet and Latvian times museum, Close to the Russian border (near Aluksne), this place has been landscaped for a pretty view but also has examples of Soviet era and old Latvian tools and uniforms. Donation + 23LVLs diesel per car load (depends on what vehicles we can use)
7. Fishing, swimming and boating in local lakes. Fishing license @ 10LVLs
8. Visit to Gaizinkalns and Lidokalns Lidokalns is a pseudo- disney style Latvian castle/manor house. Gaizinkalns is the highest point in Latvia.

11. A rabbit farm with lots of different sorts of rabbits
12. For those into nature there is nature reserve where groups can only go with a guide. This is a Ramsar Wetlands site which means it has international significance too and is highly protected and it is called the Teici Reserve .http://www.activetravellatvia.com/index.php?sectio.....section=14
