Riga Indoor Paintball 100: An Action-Packed Break from Sightseeing
If you’re visiting Riga and craving something energetic and different from the usual sightseeing routine, Riga Indoor Paintball 100 offers a thrilling way to spend a couple of hours. Priced at around $91.75 per person for approximately 2 hours of combat, this experience places you in a vast, indoor game zone just minutes from Riga’s charming Old Town. It’s perfect for groups of friends or families looking for a fun, adrenaline-filled activity that works all year round—especially during the cold Latvian winter when outdoor activities might be less appealing.
What I really like about this experience is the attention to safety and professionalism. The staff are fluent in English, friendly, and always on hand to ensure everyone is comfortable and protected. Plus, the large indoor space offers a variety of challenging obstacles, tunnels, and dark rooms that create a very immersive, Hollywood-style setting. The inclusion of 100 paintball markers means you’ll have plenty of ammunition for some serious fun.
One possible consideration is that, as with all paintball experiences, there is a non-refundable policy—so if you’re unsure about the activity, be sure to double-check your plans. But for those who enjoy active adventures, this is certainly an experience that’s worth considering. It’s especially suited for adventurous travelers or groups who want a memorable story to tell after their Riga trip.

What to Expect from Your Riga Indoor Paintball Experience
When you book this indoor paintball adventure, you’re signing up for more than just a game—you’re setting out on a mini adrenaline adventure in a controlled, safe environment. We love the location’s size and diversity. Instead of a simple open field or small arena, this venue takes you through tunnels, dark corridors, and obstacle courses that mimic Hollywood action scenes. It’s a perfect setting for strategizing and teamwork, whether you’re competing against your friends or just having fun.
The activity starts with a friendly introduction from the staff—most of whom speak English fluently. You’ll be fitted with full protective gear: masks, gloves, and overalls, which help keep safety top priority. Once geared up, you’ll receive a paintball gun and 100 markers, ensuring plenty of ammunition for your entire session.
The game zone itself is expansive, and the variety of environments means no two battles are the same. Some areas are enclosed and dark, perfect for sneaky ambushes, while tunnels and obstacles challenge your agility and strategic thinking. You’ll likely find yourself running, hiding, and trying to outmaneuver your opponents—just like in a movie.
An important aspect we appreciate is the professional staff’s vigilance, ensuring safety rules are followed without dampening the fun. Whether you’re a first-timer or a seasoned paintball player, you’ll find the staff’s guidance reassuring. As one reviewer put it, “The introduction was very good, especially for those who had never played before.”

Given the price point and included equipment, the activity offers excellent value.

The private group setting enhances the fun and ensures you won’t be mixed with strangers—perfect for a customized adventure.
While the activity is quite accessible, keep in mind that it’s non-refundable, so plan accordingly. If you’re unsure, consider the weather and your group’s comfort with active outdoor or indoor activities.
