The perfect old town tour - We booked this through trip advisor who allocated Viator for the tour. They gave us Desa. Desa is local to the old town, in fact grew up there. We could not have asked for more. Desa is passionate about history and in fact is an educated historian. We are a couple in our fifties and don’t do crowds but want to learn about the history of the places we visit. Desa was perfect for us, lots of interesting history, we stayed away from the crowds and had a fantastic 2 hours. Great way to see the old town and get your bearings with an excellent guide. Thank you Desa.

Short tour, full of surprises! - Our day in Dubrovnik was towards the end of our 12-day cruise, so we were pretty tired and hot by this point in our vacation. Our guide, Vesna, was very knowledgeable and friendly. She showed us several sights off the beaten track, even pointing out the house she grew up in! She took us to an incredible view from, get this - a basketball court! It's the basketball court with the best view in the world, according to the WSJ...and I can see why. She was very good about keeping us in the shade as much as possible for my fair-skinned husband. And she brought us to a gelato place to try the local bitter orange flavor - yum! We learned a lot about the history of Croatia and Dubrovnik in particular, and what it was like growing up and living there. She took some great pictures of the two of us, which I very much appreciate. During our tour, we came across a bird that looked unable to fly. So she picked it up and moved it to higher ground. We took a few pictures - it turns out that the bird is protected, which we learned when she posted the picture online and Animal Protection reached out to locate it for protection!

Karmen was Amazing!! - We did the Treasures of Dubrovnik: Game of Thrones tour with Karmen and she was fantastic! I highly recommend you book a tour with her. She was so knowledgeable and professional! She was not only available for the tour but also beforehand with restaurant recommendations, coffee recommendations, and even days after the tour for suggestions. Whether you are a Game of Thrones fan or just want to learn and the history of the Old City, you should book with Karmen!! 10/10 recommend!!

Fun, approachable and knowledgeable! - Karmen was absolutely fantastic! She went above and beyond to help us have the best experiences. We booked a private tour with her, especially because my partner has walking difficulties. Karmen was very flexible and adjusted the tour according to our needs. She's very knowledgeable and passionate about her job. She left us wanting to know more about Dubrovnik. In particular, she researched accessible areas for us, supported us with mobility, gave us good advice on where to eat and drink, shared the bus schedule with us from where we were staying to get into the Old Town, and shared details for a paint and wine experience. Karmen was inclusive and spoke directly to my partner, who was in a wheelchair (unfortunately, this doesn't always happen). She also has a great sense of humour. Overall, she exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend her!

Best tour and tour guide ever!!! - Mia was fantastic. She was friendly, knowledgeable, and gave us the best tour we have ever had. She went above and beyond the tour by providing us with information with things to do over the next few days. She sent me links to restaurants and suggested places and towns to stop on our road trip to Split. I promise you will not be disappointed with this tour. She bought my husband some coffee and me some delicious gelato. I feel like I know so much about Dubrovnik after this tour. Mia was truly a delight.

Personal and private walking tour - Nice and convenient tour with a personal guide. Great for anyone who does not enjoy tours in big groups. Our guide Paolo answered all of our questions and we had a great walk through the town. Very personal and attentive service. Would book this tour again!
