Your day, assembled.

  • Dubrovnik Old Town and the city walls above the sea

    The heart of the day

    Old Town & the walls

    The marble Stradun, baroque churches, and the famous circuit around the medieval walls — 1,940 metres with the sea on every side.

    Walled city · UNESCO

  • The rooftops of Dubrovnik old town from Srd at golden hour

    405 m above the rooftops

    Srd panorama

    Cable car or the winding road up — the postcard view over the red roofs, the harbour and the open Adriatic. Best in the last hours of light.

    Viewpoint · Cable car

  • Inside the walls

    Rector's Palace

    The Gothic-Renaissance seat of the Republic's government. The rector served one month at a time and could barely leave the building — the state trusted no one for longer.

    Museum · Ticketed

  • A galleon sailing past the island of Lokrum below the city walls

    10 min by boat

    Lokrum

    The green island facing the walls — a short hop from the old harbour for botanical gardens, peacocks and quiet swimming coves.

    Island · Boat

  • 5 min from the gate

    Banje beach

    The city beach, with the walls and Lokrum in the frame while you swim. A towel-and-a-dip stop between the sights, May to October.

    Beach · Swim stop

  • Boats in the harbour of Cavtat on the Dubrovnik Riviera

    ≈ 18 km south

    Cavtat

    A relaxed seaside town down the Riviera — palm-lined promenade, quiet beaches and wonderful waterfront restaurants. The classic lunch stop.

  • A winding coastal road high above the sea

    Between the stops

    The coast road

    Your driver knows every lay-by and viewpoint worth a pause — that perfect Dubrovnik photograph usually happens somewhere along here.

The Pearl of the Adriatic, your way.

Those who seek paradise on Earth should come to Dubrovnik.

Attributed to George Bernard Shaw · 1929

Dubrovnik rewards those who explore beyond the main gate. The marble Stradun runs three hundred metres from gate to gate, the wall circuit above it runs almost two kilometres with the sea on every side, and the lanes between hold baroque churches, one small republic's worth of palaces, and cats asleep on sun-warmed stone.

The walls
One circuit is 1,940 m with little shade — walk them early or in the last hours of light, and carry water in summer. Entry is ticketed separately.
The cable car
Four minutes to the Srd summit; queues are shortest before mid-morning. Your driver can also take you up by road when the wind stops the cars.
Old Town access
Pedestrian-only — your driver drops you at the gate, waits nearby, and you message when you're ready to move on.
Cruise arrivals
We collect right at the Gruž quayside, shape the day around your ship's schedule and build in a comfortable buffer for reboarding.
Currency
Croatia uses the euro; cards are accepted almost everywhere in the city.

Four and a half centuries under Libertas.

Ragusa bought its freedom with diplomacy and kept it behind these walls — a merchant republic that rivalled Venice and never fell to a siege.
