There are lots of places to explore in Latvia, and car hire is the best way to get to them; beautiful coastal towns and beaches, the caves and castles of the Gauja valley and the capital of Riga are all worth a visit.

Latvia's attractions are ideal for exploring by car and the driving conditions are generally quite good. The roads are generally in good condition and car ownership in Latvia is among the lowest in Europe so traffic levels are low.

We want you to enjoy your trip to Latvia, so we have put some driving information together to assist you in your preparations for your visit.
