Car Hire in Riga

Whether you want to rent a luxury car, a people carrier or a city-friendly vehicle in Riga, finding your ideal hire car has never been easier at Rentalcars.com. We give you simple search tools, handy filters and all the information you need upfront — helping to make your rental experience simple and stress-free. Our team deal with all the major car hire brands directly to secure cheap prices you won’t find anywhere else. In fact, if you find the same car with the same supplier cheaper elsewhere, we will beat the quote as part of our Best Price Guarantee.

To help you make an informed choice when you are deciding who to rent with, we show ratings and reviews from previous customers next to each listing. Their feedback will help you see which brands other people trust and recommend the most. After all, we think being impartial is the best way to be. Don’t forget: by booking a car with a full-to-full fuel policy, you will avoid hidden fuel charges (as long as you drop off the car with a full tank). Many of the companies we negotiate with in Riga offer cars with this policy.

Jūrmala: A 40-minute drive from Riga is the seaside town of Jūrmala. Once one of the most popular beach destinations for the Soviet Union, Jūrmala has over 30 kilometres of coastline — and is the largest coastal resort in the Baltic. The city prides itself on being a ‘Healthy City’: during the 1930s, people flocked here to bathe in the mineral-rich water and mud. Jūrmala is also home to Latvia’s largest waterpark.

Turaida Museum Reserve: Turaida means ‘God’s garden’ in an ancient local language, and this museum’s surroundings are certainly beautiful. An hour from Riga, the Turaida Museum Reserve features a picturesque medieval castle that narrates the history of the area — while the garden contains sculptures dedicated to Latvian folk tales.

Gauja National Park: Stretching over 90,000 hectares, the Gauja National Park is the oldest and largest national park in the country. Situated an hour’s drive north-west of Riga, this park has hiking trails, castles, ski slopes, caves and much more. The Ērgļu Cliffs, Zvārtes Rock and the Āraiši Archaeological Museum are a must-see.
