☀️ Summer isn’t over yet -and as we enter its final month, we’re sharing a little piece of our everyday inspiration: the beautiful, green, and pleasantly mild Riga that surrounds us. 🌿
A city of hidden corners, elegant details, and unexpected moments - the perfect setting for the work we love doing: creating memorable experiences for guests discovering Latvia and the Baltics.
But who are we?
We are the Con-ex incoming team - the people behind tailor-made programs, unforgettable journeys, and carefully crafted experiences. We connect destinations, ideas, and people, creating experiences that go beyond the ordinary and reveal the true character of our region. ✨
Behind every successful program, there are people - each with their own superpower. 💚
🌟 Alise - our tailor-made program guru and idea generator. She turns individual wishes into unique experiences, has an unbeatable eye for the most aesthetic visuals, and takes care of our database - because great experiences start with strong organization behind the scenes.
🌟 Jana - our hidden-gem hunter and experience creator. With her deep understanding of what makes a place truly special, she knows where to look beyond the obvious and brings ideas to life with unique touches, unexpected discoveries, and experiences you won’t simply find with a quick online search.

Some places simply feel like they belong in a fairytale. 🏰
Riga has been ranked #5 among Europe's Best Fairytale Destinations, and we think the city's magic is best experienced in person. Wander through the charming streets of the Old Town, admire the world-famous Art Nouveau architecture, enjoy panoramic views, discover the Open-Air Ethnographic Museum, or visit the striking National Library - each adds its own chapter to Riga's story.
If you're looking for a destination that feels a little different, yet absolutely charming, come and see what makes Riga a fairytale of its own.
We can help you peek behind Riga’s curtains and discover its stories - with local insights, hidden gems, authentic experiences, and places that reveal the true spirit of our city. 🌿

Beyond the food, you'll discover Latvia's rural traditions, local producers, crafts, culture, and beautiful countryside. Every weekend offers a new destination and new stories waiting to be explored.
Whether you're looking for hidden gems, authentic experiences, or simply great food, Home Café Days are the perfect way to experience Latvia beyond the usual tourist routes.

On 29 June at Ķipēni Manor in Limbaži Municipality (Latvia) and on 30 June at the Moisaküla Cultural Centre in Estonia, the two-day international Green Railways II Conference brought together tourism professionals, entrepreneurs, municipal representatives, and experts from Latvia, Estonia, and other European countries.
The main focus of the event was the development of sustainable and active tourism, as well as cooperation between tourism businesses involved in the project and cross-border collaboration between Latvia and Estonia. The conference highlighted the transformation of green railways (former railway lines) into internationally attractive tourism products and valuable local infrastructure that can be enjoyed by communities and visitors alike.
Con-ex Latvia Tours representative Jana Drēziņa also participated in the conference, contributing to panel discussions held at both venues. She shared insights on the potential of these tourism products for international markets, discussing their strengths, opportunities, and areas for further development to successfully attract foreign travellers.
As an additional activity, participants had the opportunity to explore a 13 km section of the Green Railways route by e-bike and visit the Niedrāju–Pilkas bog trail.
As a Travelife for Tour Operators Certified company, we are grateful to the organisers Latvijas Zaļo ceļu asociācija Latvian GreenWays Association for inviting us to participate in this conference. It provided valuable insights into the creation of a really appealing, authentic, and sustainability-driven tourism product, developed also through the dedication and collaboration of passionate local tourism entrepreneurs who actively support one another.
Thank you to the Latvian Greenways Association for organising this event and for promoting sustainable tourism development!

From 30 June to 2 July, Con-ex participated in the Baltic Roadshow in Japan, organized by the Investment and Development Agency of Latvia (Latvijas Investīciju un attīstības aģentūra - LIAA) together with the national tourism organizations of the Baltic States to promote the Baltics as an attractive travel destination. At the events, Con-ex presented its tourism offerings in cooperation with EXIT RĪGA.
During the roadshow, we visited Osaka, Nagoya, and Tokyo, where each day Latvia, Lithuania, and Estonia presented their tourism offerings to Japanese travel professionals. Each event began with presentations introducing the three Baltic countries and their tourism products, followed by workshop-style meetings in Osaka and Tokyo, while Nagoya provided an opportunity to network over coffee. We were also honoured by the participation of the Ambassador of Latvia to Japan, Zigmārs Zilgalvis, at the events in Osaka and Tokyo. It was a great opportunity to introduce Con-ex, meet both new and familiar partners, exchange ideas, and strengthen cooperation with the Japanese travel trade.
🌿One of the highlights of the trip was travelling between the Roadshow cities on Japan's famous bullet trains, while also enjoying local food and seeing a little more of the country along the way.
A big thank you to the organizers and everyone we met throughout these inspiring three days. We look forward to welcoming even more visitors from Japan to discover the beauty and diversity of the Baltics!

Līgo/Jaanipaev night!

☀️ Sun, nature, adventure, and unforgettable memories. Who is ready for lakes, forests, and outdoor adventures? And who is ready for summer in Lithuania?
Think vast forests, clear lakes, scenic hiking and cycling routes, charming small towns, and plenty of space to breathe. It's the perfect destination for those looking for a "coolcation" - escaping crowded hotspots in favor of authentic experiences, beautiful nature, and a relaxed pace of life. 🧭
One of the biggest advantages? Fewer crowds, less stress, and more opportunities to connect with nature. Combined with well-developed infrastructure for outdoor activities, recreation, wellness, and family-friendly adventures, Lithuania offers everything needed for a memorable summer getaway. 🛶
We're also working on several tours and special offers designed to help you experience the best of summer in Lithuania - from nature escapes and active adventures to relaxing lakeside retreats. Stay tuned for more inspiration and upcoming opportunities to discover Baltics with us. 🌿

At the very end of April, our incoming tourism team ( thank you Arta Blumberga and Alise Taškāne for company!) went on an educational and inspection trip to our neighbors in Lithuania — visiting Vilnius and Kaunas.
The goal of the trip was to explore the newest and most popular hotels, visit well-loved restaurants, discover new tourism attractions, and gain a deeper understanding of the current tourism landscape in both cities — including visitor flows, guest interests, and the latest travel and hospitality trends relevant for international and corporate clients.
A huge thank you to our wonderful hosts and partners from Go Vilnius and for preparing interesting and well-organized programs for us in both cities.
And now, a little bit of statistics:
during our stay in Vilnius, guided by Paula Tamuliūnaitė from "Go Vilnius", we visited: Hotel Neringa, where we also stayed, the brand-new AC Hotel by Marriott Vilnius, the stylish Courtyard by Marriott Vilnius City Center, and Grand Hotel Vilnius Curio Collection by Hilton, which will soon undergo beautiful interior design renovations.
We enjoyed lunch and a Midus tasting at Grey, and also explored restaurants such as Bernelių Užeiga, Etno Dvaras, Augustin, and Restoranas „Lokys“. We were also introduced to unique experiences including a Džiugas cheese tasting and a Beer SPA experience.
On our 2nd day in Vilnius, we continued exploring the city with a visit to the Vilnius TV Tower — an interesting venue combining both a hotel and event space — followed by visits to Porsche Garage and Lukiškės Prison 2.0. We ended our Vilnius experience with the outstanding M. K. Čiurlionis VR experience “Trail of Angels”.
In Kaunas, together with Gabriele Krapikaitė from "KaunasIN", we explored Kaunas Cathedral and restaurants including Momo Grill, Nüman, Avilys, and Bernelių Užeiga, while dinner was enjoyed at Medžiotojų Užeiga.
On the 2nd day in Kaunas, guided by guide Linas Žabaliūnas, we visited Hotel Moxy Kaunas Center, where we stayed, as well as refurbished Hotel Kaunas, high-quality Radisson Hotel Kaunas, and a uniquely designed hotel located in a remarkable architectural building - Victoria Hotel Kaunas. We also discovered some of the best examples of Kaunas street art, visited Kaunas Town Hall and the Volfas Engelman brewery as a potential event venues, and took the Aleksotas Funicular up to enjoy panoramic views over the city. We concluded our visit with lunch at Restaurant DIA.
As representatives of a sustainability-minded company, we chose to travel to Vilnius and back from Kaunas in a sustainable way — by coaches from Lux Express and ECOLINES - transportation options that we increasingly recommend to our own tourists as well.
***
We are looking forward to many more successful collaborations, our amazing Vilnius and inspiring Kaunas!
And we are certain that many of our international guests will truly appreciate the opportunity to visit your beautiful cities. ✨

Last week, we attended a tourism networking event organized by Latvijas Investīciju un attīstības aģentūra - LIAA in Cēsis, bringing together tourism professionals, local producers, experience providers, accommodation hosts, and regional tourism organizations from across the Vidzeme region.
Our day began with lunch in the heart of Cēsis, followed by presentations and meetings with local suppliers at H. E. Vanadziņa restorāns. The event gave us a great opportunity to explore tourism products, authentic local experiences, food and drink producers, cultural heritage sites, and active tourism opportunities throughout Vidzeme.
Vidzeme offers a diverse and high-quality tourism experience just a short trip from Riga — from nature and culture to unique local businesses and hospitality. It was inspiring to meet so many passionate tourism entrepreneurs who are open to new ideas and ready for strong collaborations.
The evening continued with a networking dinner and valuable discussions about future partnerships in a truly inspiring atmosphere. We’re excited about the opportunities ahead!
