Overview

The early morning start allows you to experience Dubrovnik’s magnificent city walls before the crowds arrive. During the peak summer season, the cooler temperatures make the walk much more comfortable and enjoyable, while the soft morning light and quieter pathways create ideal conditions for memorable photos.

Along the way, a licensed local guide will bring Dubrovnik’s story to life, from its golden age to the present day. You will learn about the wars and sieges that shaped the city, its remarkable resilience, and the modern-day challenges it faces.

Highlights include breathtaking views of the Adriatic Sea and the unforgettable skyline of Dubrovnik’s Old Town.

Note: the entrance fee to the city wall is not included in the price of the tour.
