"Good place - The site is very easy to reach for all vehicles. The toilets are great, at least the ones in the 2nd container. You have your peace and quiet there! Unfortunately only 4 washbasins in total. This leads to waiting times during rush hour. It's nice to be by the river, even though you're in the city and surrounded by greenery. Electricity is available, WLAN is also included. You can also book a boat tour directly, unfortunately the boat was broken during our stay. Riga Old Town is 10 minutes away by car - there are plenty of parking spaces. There is a very good restaurant at the marina to the north of the campsite. Within walking distance! With the dog you have very good running areas. When we arrived there were also numerous dogs. The site is very clean, the toilets smell very good. The showers (included in the price) are also great, but if you arrive too late in the evening, the hot water can run out. This site is also very quiet for the city. I would book the pitch again at any time when visiting Riga. Everything was represented on the site, from tents to motorhomes, caravans, even buses and Concorde campers. We were 4 people (2 adults + 2 children), car + caravan. + dog and paid 140 euros for 4 nights.

"Parking space close to the city - nothing more! - For a city campsite you have to accept a certain amount of cramped conditions, no shade and noise levels, but not that the sanitary facilities are not cleaned on Sundays in high season when the campsite is full and the floor in the shower is under water. The price of Euro 20,- for 2 persons with camper is acceptable

"Perfect for sightseeing followed by relaxation - When you arrive here you might think you are in the wrong place. Although this place is very similar to a parking lot, I have to agree with previous reviews. Super city campsite! Very friendly, completely uncomplicated operator and the sanitary facilities are very clean, even if they take some getting used to. We stayed here for 2 nights to visit Riga. You can call a cab through the operator to get into the city (approx. 12€ for 8 people), but you can also walk (approx. 45min -1h). You also have a wonderful view of the Riga skyline and what was very pleasant for us was that there is an open pavilion where you can eat in the dry even when it rains, if it is too warm in the caravan and too wet outside, as it was for us. The covered pool was unfortunately closed.

"Great location, perfect for visiting Riga - I can only agree with all the positive reports. Great location, very nice, there is even a book table where you can swap books and take them with you. (Also enough German literature). Nice loungers and a green area to sit down and enjoy the river. Free WLAN.

"Ideal place for sightseeing - The site is located directly on the Daugava River with a view of the harbor and the cable-stayed bridge, fenced all around. Very friendly operator who speaks English and some German. The site offers approx. 40 parceled, asphalted pitches for caravans and motorhomes and some tent pitches on a meadow strip. The sanit. Facilities are housed in containers, very well maintained and clean incl. WW. Chemical WC disposal on site. There is also a restaurant (unfortunately still closed) and a covered pool on the site, and a few sun loungers are available to guests on the meadow by the canal. The surrounding industrial companies do not disturb, no noise, no smell. However, a ship may be unloaded across the river in the evening, so there may be some noise, harbor crane, etc. No food supply on site, supermarket about 2 km away. Possibility to go by boat from the campsite to the center, but expensive, Euro 20.--/person, better by public transport, bus station approx. 200 m > Euro 2.--/person or cab, approx. 8 Euro. Lunch break from 12 - 15 o'clock.

"Asphalt square - We had a bit of a stomach ache when we drove onto this site, an asphalt campsite in the middle of an industrial estate is something else. What's more, the reception wasn't open yet and we were almost the only people on the site at 2.30 pm (there were motorhomes there, of course). When we decided to stay and the very friendly, German and English-speaking operator opened reception at 3.00 pm, we felt it was the right decision. Unfortunately, the only thing I can tell you about the boat transfer to the old town is that the transfer costs 20 euros per person (regardless of age). The operator advised us to take a cab, which he also ordered and cost us 4 people 6 euros to the old town. The old town can certainly also be reached on foot (perhaps too annoying with 2 children) or by bike (who wants to explore the old town by bike). After our day in Riga we went shopping in the shopping center close to the campsite and on the way back we drove over the very full Rigacitiycamping and were happy to be on a pitch where there were only 40 pitches, which were about 40% occupied. The children, with "pavement-weary" feet, found the TV reception and the very strong Wi-Fi good for rounding off the day in Riga after a dip in the small, covered pool. The sanitary facilities are housed in containers and were in perfect condition and spotlessly clean during our stay. The site is 100% recommended for Riga tours.
