What doubts do you have?
People go to Riga all the time - and come back safely.
You can hardly pick up a newspaper in the UK without spotting an advertisement for flights/ shortbreaks to Riga and other parts of Latvia.

Travel writers must fall over themselves as they
leave the airport to get their copy first - so many articles appear on the joys of visiting this ancient city.
Easy to get to now too, thanks to budget air line flights.
What's holding you back? Enjoy life!

Depends on what you mean. If you're talking about stag weekends, then I'd say travel some place else (stag parties - Brits mainly - are *very* unpopular in Riga these days... also be aware that prices in Riga have increased a lot recently, and drinks etc aren't particularly cheap anymore)

But if you're a "normal" tourist, interested in seeing Riga and experiencing more than just bars and strip clubs, then I'd say sure, go! (I have spent 4-5 months in Riga in the past few years, and always have a great time there)

Well Yes - I agree with Flette Mette - the possibility that you might be interested in a Stag weekend had not occurred -If that is the case she is right !
