My guide Jānis made the two hour trip in each direction informative and engaging. Due to the arrival of snow, there was no sunrise effect at the site. With an early winter arrival you avoid all crowds. We were the only ones there.

While, yes, it's very early in the morning, Krista was a great driver and I enjoyed the drive as much as the visit to the hill. We got there at the perfect time and it was definitely more impressive than the pictures. Very peaceful as we were the only ones there. I definitely recommend this unique experience!

It was a beautiful trip to Hill of Crosses. Watch the sunrise was unforgettable. Also, to take pictures and videos of that moment make it more special. Last but not least, Krista was very profesional, o pick me up at the Hotel according schedule, gave me the information about this spectacular place and was very friendly. Totally recommended!

We had a wonderful tour with Armands. Experiencing the sunrise at the Hill of Crosses really is special and we didn't regret booking the trip. Going there early in the morning also means that you have the place to yourself, meaning no other people in the photos you take ;) Armands is a fascinating person and had lots of interesting stories to tell. He's also a very good driver and we felt safe with him, which isn't the least important feature when you spend four hours in the car.

This tour was fabulous and the driver for this experience was Janis and he was even better. He arrived at the hotel on time. He was very personable and easy to talk to. Gave a lot of information about life in the region. The Hill of Crosses is an out of the way place in Lithuania but a short drive from where we were staying in Riga, Latvia. As you might expect, it was very windy and chilly on the hill. When you look at all of the crosses, though, you can see so many stories that are surely captured there. Highly recommend taking this tour.

Krista was absolutely amazing. Felt completely at ease was soon as we meet her. Also her knowledge was second to none.

I had an amazing time exploring the beautiful place with Krista. She made my trip very comfortable and gave lots of information about the place and also about Latvia and Lithuania. I would highly recommend booking this trip.

Krista our guide was so personable, informative, enthusiastic and knowledgeable - cannot recommend enough. 5 stars!

We had a lovely morning with Krista, she was so knowledgeable about the hill and also gave us loads of great tips on how to spend our time in Riga. Thank you Krista for being so easy going and friendly, you really helped us get the most out of our time

Great tour from start to finsh.janis was a great tour guide told many stories about hill of crosses and pointed out the differences in some of the crosses plenty of free time at hill i am not a holy person but felt very moved when here. Only i would have liked a leaflet about hil which the guide had it had pictures of hill with no crosses on it but apart from that great tour once again janis was great tell him keep up with learning his spanish 5* tour🥳👍

Do this tour - just DO it! Amazing experience to see the sun rise from the misty fields surrounding the hill and start colouring the enormous collection of crosses in all shapes and sizes! You do definately not need to be a religious person to be stunned by the sight. Sadly/luckily it seems to be a well kept secret that sunrise is the time to go as I was the only person at the sight for the hour I stayed there. The tour was very professionally organized and the driver/guide so friendly and interesting. I really recommend this tour warmly!

What a beautiful and magical experience, highly recommend it! The tour operator was extremely friendly, professional and full of interesting information. Definitely the best way to experience the hill of crosses. Thank you Krista!.

The best half day trip from Riga, a must do. I booked this tour only about a week before my trip and immediately after I got a response from the tour operatir confirming my booking and with instructions about pick up location and timing, very professional and welcoming. I got picked up at the exact time i was promised and we got on the road right away with a stop for coffee and bathroom on the way. We got to the hill of crosses 15 minutes before sunrise and got enough time to get on the perfect spot to catch the sunrise, what a magical moment, we were the only ones at the location, how lucky. The hill of crosses itself is beautiful and mystical, hard to describe the energy but totally worth the trip. The road is only about 100 kilometers and you will be there in a heartbeat, the tour operator is full of useful and interesting information and will make the trip extremely memorable, I highly recommend it.

To go to the Hill of Cross is an amazing experience. The place is outstanding and so mysterious with that small hill and so many crosses of all sizes, colours and formats. Going with Krysta Jansone is even more amazing, she is so nice, with so many history knowledge that we travel to and back you forgot time and you will be more than satisfied to had booked with her. Profisionalism and sympathy !

If you are staying in Riga, it is worth your time to also visit the Hill of Crosses. Maybe an early morning trip is not your style, but seeing this site in quiet somber without crowds will make you fully appreciate its reverence. I also highly recommend Amber tours as they were so quick in confirming details. Our guide was very warm and knowledgeable, and therefore I think you will appreciate both the journey and also the destination.
