XDREAM HOTEL RIGA FULL

Our beer bike pulled up outside the restaurant where we had a reservation for the evening and left us to it. After the first five minutes, it was clear to see that some people pulled their weight and some absolutely did not, but after a few beers no one could feel their legs anymore anyway.

We even had a full outdoor laser tag battle, ducking and diving between obstacles and playing a few team shooting games including capture the flag.Īfter a quick shower and freshen up, we were straight on it again (no rest for the wicked, ay?) with a beer bike trek through the Old Town centre. After a few pictures with the Olympic-standard bobsleigh outside, we headed to the military simulation arena for some target practice with laser guns. Once the adrenaline had kicked in and we had a bite to eat, we were all set go again. Climbing into the bobsleigh and shutting the cage roof, we set off down the track, reaching stomach-dropping speeds of up to 45 mph – it’s safe to say we felt less than 100%, but it was totally worth it. Waking up feeling hungover to say the least, we headed to the Summer Bobsleigh track.

Where we went after that is anyone’s guess. We then stopped off at a few shots bars and ended up in Cuba Cafe, where locals and tourists appeared to transcend language barriers by drinking and dancing the night away. The steak and drinks really set the bar high for what was to come we headed off into Riga and arrived at Radisson Blu Hotel, where we took the elevator to the top floor Skyline Bar for some classy drinks and panoramic views of the entire city at sunset. We’ll leave that one to your imaginations… It wasn’t just the lads who were on the receiving end of a sexy striptease, either - our Sales Executive, Kat, got a little bit more than she bargained for when she got up close and personal with a male stripper dressed as a sailor. We lined our stomachs in true Latvian style – with gallons of alcohol, antipasto, caviar and the best steaks we’ve ever had – all to a backdrop of a VIP strip show. Once we were back on dry land, we were pumped for a massive night out. We sailed up and down the River Daugava and were treated like Kings and Queens with fresh fruit, delicious, massive pizzas and more bottles of fizz. We got our hands on four lethal weapons, including pistols, Glocks, shotguns and Kalashnikovs, and took part in a spot of target practice – with varying levels of success… To take the edge off our adrenaline rush, we were then whisked away and taken to Riga harbour, where we set sail on our very own private yacht trip. We arrived at >X-Dream Hotel, checked out its in-house strip club (obviously) then dumped our stuff in our rooms and headed off to a former warehouse with a shooting range in its cellar. 'We've been in Riga 10 minutes and I'm already down to my boxers with a stripper.'
