Dubrovnik Old City Walls Private Tour

About this activity

Let's go on a walking tour along the magnificent city walls of Dubrovnik and view the city from a different perspective overlooking the major historical landmarks and hear about the history and the way of life in Dubrovnik through many centuries up to now!

Walk along the ramparts and step back in time, losing yourself in the grandeur and beauty of this culturally influential city. Beginning from east gate of Ploče we continue the entrance of the city walls near the St. John's fortress and start our guided tour of the city walls stretching 1940 m (6365 ft.) enjoying the view of the streets, houses, palaces, fortresses, monasteries, including locations that were used in the filming of the Game of Thrones and much more.

Take in the beautiful sights, and listen to stories and remarkable facts through the many centuries of Dubrovnik’s dramatic history, including the recent past during the Homeland War.

Let me take you on an adventure through the Old City in a way only the locals know!
