How to get there

By car
See the route planner below.
For information about driving in Latvia see Travel by car in Latvia – latvia-online.eu.

By bus
Latvia has a well-developed network of national long-distance bus connections radiating out from the Central Bus Station (Autoosta) in the capital Rīga. The buses are in good technical condition, well maintained and clean. The staff is friendly. In my experience, the driving style is prudent. The buses are usually on time. If you are satisfied with the ride, you are welcome to leave a small tip in the designated compartment on the dashboard when you get out. From Rīga to Cēsis and vice versa, the daily cycle time is one hour or less. For more information see https://www.1188.lv/en/transport.

By train
The railway network in Latvia has been largely neglected in recent years. There are still train connections from Riga to Cēsis with a daily cycle time of about two hours. For timetables see https://www.1188.lv/en/transport. The use of passenger trains in Latvia is currently difficult or impossible for people with a physical handicap. Platforms are not at the same height as the carriages.
