  • 5This was a good tour. ...

    This was a good tour. Our guide talked about the history of the city and of the wall. Pointed out the different points of interest and their importance. She was well informed and willing to answer any questions

  • 4Cable Car and Old Town

    It was 90 plus degrees with 90 percent humidity. I haven’t sweated that much in quite some time. Cables from the cable car got in the way of a photos regardless where you stood at the top

  • 5Touring Old Town Dubrovnik

    Our guide, who said his name was Elvis, did an excellent job of walking us through old town Dubrovnik and explaining its history. He had lived in Dubrovnik all his life and was quite familiar with what had transpired to this city. It was a very hot day but our guide tried to ensure we stayed in the shade as much as possible and had opportunities for us to drink from the free-flowing fountains. The cable car ride was enjoyable and gave us a real bird's eye view down to Dubrovnik. We have our tickets to walk the walls and we'll do that later today when it gets a little cooler out.

About Dubrovnik

Ringed by mighty walls, Dubrovnik is the pearl of the Adriatic, a medieval city of marble streets and terracotta roofs rising straight from the sea.

A walk around the city walls, nearly two kilometres of towers and bastions, gives unforgettable views over the rooftops and the sea. Inside, the Stradun, the polished limestone main street, runs from the Pile Gate past Onofrio's Fountain, the Franciscan Monastery with its old pharmacy, and the Rector's Palace.

Top-ranked sights in Dubrovnik: Elafiti Islands (Elaphites) , Dubrovnik Old Town, Pile Gate.
