Additional Information

Embark on a journey that takes you deep into the iconic heart of Dubrovnik, giving you a first-hand experience of our remarkable city walls. Any promotional literature about Dubrovnik predominantly features one exceptional heritage site - the ever-enchanting city walls of ancient Ragusa. This is an exclusive chance to delve into the chronicles of Dubrovnik and Croatia - understanding their inception, development, peak, downfall, era of communism, the recent 1991 war, and today’s reality. Our tour guides, with their captivating narratives, will present innumerable photo-worthy moments, so much so that your finger might just stay glued to the camera button. Our tour operates in smaller groups, with local and licensed guides who promise an entertaining experience. Plus, expect a mild exercise routine given the around 1,000 stairs along the city walls. But, like everything in life, a little bit of effort for timeless photos and unforgettable stories is truly worth it :)

Outstanding - I liked this so much I sent others on the same tour the next morning. Deca was amazing, giving so much of the history of Dubrovnik as well as information about the culture. She gave recommendations on where to eat and even helped me with instructions for bus including # and stop nearest my hotel. You should do this tour right away as she will help you enjoy rest of your time in Dubrovnik. Yes, lots of steps but stops to tell you about history or views are well timed to catch your breath and take a break

Great walking tour - Great tour in the nice evening sun light. Wasn’t too hot. Our guide Deša was excellent and gave us many tips also for the next day (places to visit and local dishes to eat). Dubrovnik pass is highly recommended. When it’s bought in the evening it’s still valid the whole day after. We used it for the Fort Lovrijenak and several museums next day.

Fantastic walking tour of Dubrovnik's walls - Excellent walking tour of Dubrovnik's walls. Our guide was very friendly, informative and knowledgeable. He gave a lot of information about Croatia and Dubrovnik's history, culture and people but in a friendly manner. The walls gave fantastic views of the city and surrounding sea. Sunset was a good time to do this tour as it was comfortably cooler.

Perfect pace and interesting stories - Our guide Desa knew the city and the walls so well, we had a great time on the beautiful wall! Glad I picked this tour and not the larger groups. All history bits and stories were interesting, and did help me to look at the structures in different perspectives. Pacing was just perfect. 6pm start time was great for the summer heat and better photos. Wish I joined a day earlier for the travel tips were useful, gonna come back!

Sunset tour is a must do! - We did quite a bit of research to decide on a tour & I’m so glad we chose this one! It was so much cooler at 6pm & there were not crowds to contend with. Desa was so knowledgeable about everything to do with the walls & her city. Was happy to share tips on where to eat etc. & answer any questions. Walked at a steady pace with breaks to stop & give information. Would thoroughly recommend doing this tour on your first day in Dubrovnik as it will give you an idea on how to plan your days ahead.
