a wide range of activities some of which are a great chance to try
something unique and not possible back home!
All our activities are carefully chosen and researched for compliance
to E.U. safety standards.

you are covered by your own travel insurance policy!

Riga
Shooting Range
Always popular
and never fails to create such a huge buzz and mass excitement -
these are serious guns. We've even had guys from the British army
come here and they were in raptures! There sure is something mysteriously
satisfying about letting loose with real shooters and live ammunition!
It takes place in a former KGB bunker constructed for communist
party chiefs to hide in case of a nuclear attack!
There's a whole variety of guns to choose from such as pistols,
pump-action shotguns, assorted semi-automatic and automatic rifles
and the Soviet beast itself - the deadly accurate Kalashnikov assault
rifle.
Also
included : English speaking guide, transfers, professional instructors,
safety instructions, rent of guns & shooting range, targets.
