Full description

Join your local guide and take a walk through Dubrovnik’s beautiful Old Town and discover how the city became one of the most prosperous and advanced of all the historic maritime republics.

See Large Onofrio's Fountain, Orlando’s Column, Rector’s Palace, and many more.

Take in the beautiful sights, and listen as your guide shares mesmerizing stories and remarkable facts from over 1,400 years of Dubrovnik’s dramatic history, including the classical period of the Republic of Ragusa.  This tour will give you a thorough background on the essential role Dubrovnik played in the civilized world’s history. You will learn about the city’s impressive economic, social, and cultural achievements over the centuries, and immerse yourself in the city’s electric atmosphere.

What a fun and insightful tour! Getting to see the old city on foot while also learning about the amazing history of Dubrovnik was so worth it! If you can request a guide, go for Marin. He's a local and has some pretty cool Game of Thrones related stories in addition to his knowledge of the city!

100% you should do this tour. It's very informative and gives you a taste of all the history. Our guide was brilliant and even opened up about his own personal war experience which was heart wrenching to hear. Dubrovnik is such a beautiful place, I highly recommend this tour. Its a great way to start your holiday.

Good tour guide, he was very knowledgeable, and I learnt a lot of history of Dubrovnik. Tricky to locate start point as Pile Gate area is very busy. Even with an orange umbrella - hard to spot. Would have liked at the end - as finished in the middle of Dubrovnik- was information such as if you want to walk the walls, go here, if you want to go up the cable car go there.
