Highlights
  • Brsalje Street - This is our meeting place. Your guide will be standing next to the Amerling fountain which is a rather common meeting place for guests and guides in Dubrovnik. The exact address is: Brsalje 2, close to Dubravka gift shop, outside of the city walls, at the place where all the tour buses stop and also close to the public Libertas buses (1, 2, 3, etc.).
    The meeting point is at Amerling fountain next to Dubravka restaurant. The guide will have a blue umbrella or a sign “Early Bird” .Very close to the meeting place is a lovely view, you’ll see a vacant square which will be in only several hours from the tour filled with many wandering visitors, groups… on our Early Bird tour, you’ll be most likely the only guests on this spot and have the square to yourselves, which is definitely a chance not to miss while you’re in Dubrovnik! On this tour, the early bird always gets the early worm (in translation, the best photos).

Additional Information

In recent times, Dubrovnik has surged in popularity, almost to the point of obscuring its authentic charm, especially during the summer. The essence of this tour is to offer you an intimate encounter with the city.

We’ll take advantage of the early morning sun to tour the old town.

While the town is still slumbered, we will navigate its labyrinthine narrow lanes to experience the genuine Dubrovnik, devoid of the regular throngs of people. At 8 am, when all the eateries are yet to open, you’ll see the town slowly waking up to the day’s activities.

Our exploration begins along the glossy main street, which is primarily deserted early in the morning, offering you a unique perspective of its splendor. Through secret shortcuts, you’ll discover history, myths, and oddities. During our walk, you’ll encounter all notable monuments and receive an orientation of Dubrovnik to aid you in planning your stay, and make the most of it.

Great tour and guide!! - We had this tour with Ivana on Monday morning this week. Very few of us on the tour. She was so friendly and great to tour and chat with. She was very knowledgeable about the history of the city and was very responsive to questions. She also gave the best advice on where to get a great coffee which for me was of the utmost importance with being up so early! Thanks so much Ivana. Would recommend to everyone!

Get our early and beat the crowds! - Perfect way to start our trip to Dubrovnik - a short tour covering all of the key sites and information. Starting early was a great idea as we had the town to ourselves ehich was such a rare luxury and we were in a group of 4. The guide (Mihala?) was wonderful and gave good tips for restaurants.

Great introduction to the city - The early start is a must to ensure the best tour of the old town before the crowds pour in (many cruise ships disgorge their passengers after about 9.30am!) We had a great and informative tour. Our guide included history of Dubrovnik and some wider Croatian history. I think I'm one of the few people who haven't seen Game of Thrones but even I was interested in the little mention of the filming that took place in the town. A really good 1.5 hours. Brillant way to understand the town and to get your bearings (along with some great suggestions for good restaurants depending on what was asked for!) At under 18 Euros a must!

A great introduction to Dubrovnik. - Great way to be introduced to the old town. An early start before the cruise ship groups poured in! A super guide ( sorry, I didn't catch his name) giving so much information. When asked, he gave super recommendations for eating places. Highly recommended.

👍🏻 - Daniela was an excellent guide, knowledgeable, clear and friendly, she gave us a very warm welcome to her city and it’s history. The Early Bird was perfect as it meant the temperature wasn’t too hot or the old city too crowded. Thank you Daniella.

Best way to get to know Dubrovnik with an amazing guide - Mikale (sp?) was an amazing tour guide. She helped piece together the history of the place, the history of Croatia, and the beauty of Dubrovnik. Great to do this tour early before all the cruise boat tours make it ashore.

Highly recommended - Really interesting to learn about the old town from a young experienced local. Particularly the more recent war history. Grateful for the early start, too. Highly recommend!

Average tour. Not worth the price though. - It was a nice history lesson and overview. Andy was knowledgeable but not very enthusiastic or engaging.
