Latvia Courland Aizpute

Established in the 9C on the Tebra River, Aizpute is known for its 13C castle and friendly shops and cafes.

Aizpute is a town in western Latvia's Aizpute municipality in the valley of Tebra River. The territory of modern Aizpute was inhabited by ancient Curonians since the 9th century. St. John Lutheran church has been built on the curonian hillfort. In the 13th century during the Livonian crusade, the territory of Aizpute was conquered by German crusaders. Already in 1248 the master of the Livonian Order Dietrich von Gruningen ordered the building of a stone castle in Aizpute, which remains to this day one of the town's most significant attractions, besides its historic center.

All that I can say is that I love RoutePerfect! It really helped me to organize my trip! I was very satisfied with all of our hotels. We visited more than 10 cities, so the way you organized your website helped a lot to choose the hotels. I was also very surprised by the price. I recommended your website to many people, and of course I am going to use it again on my next trip!

Having used Route Perfect before I was very happy with the service I received, the whole process is very slick and well organised, from the booking of the hotels on the website to the smooth check in process at the hotels, each hotel seems to give preferential/extra value rates for RoutePerfect bookings and I had no hesitation in booking with you again this year for our Italian Tour. Great service, good value, helpful team, I cant rate you highly enough! Well done - I am a very happy customer.
