Dubrovnik tours & holidays

Find your throne within the medieval walls of Dubrovnik

Known as ‘the pearl of the Adriatic’ and ‘the jewel of the Dalmatian Coast,’ it’s no wonder Croatia's Dubrovnik tempts kings and queens. The imagery of royalty makes sense when you stand on the Old Town’s ancient walls and look out over the sparkling sea – it’s clear why this UNESCO World Heritage site’s host to so many TV and film crews (and starry-eyed small group tours). Only a few hours from Split and Zagreb, and within reach of all the must-see Croatian islands, you’ll want to consider riding into battle for this gem. Take a Croatia cruise or small sailing yacht tour from here to see Lokrum, Hvar and Korcula, or start your foodie tour of the Balkans with a charcuterie loaded with pork and other cured meats.

Dubrovnik highlights

The medieval streets of Old Dubrovnik Croatia

Wander the streets of Old Dubrovnik

You could spend days walking through Dubrovnik’s medieval Old Town and still not see everything, but you can give it a go. From Pile Gate (one of the two main gates into the city), walk to Rector’s Palace for its ornate architecture, sipping on a cold beer all the way to the cliffside Fort Lovrijenac. See Big Onofrio's Fountain, then check out the Franciscan monastery with one of the world's oldest, continuously functioning pharmacies from the 13th century. At sunset, take the switchbacks leading up Srd Hill for spectacular city and coastline views.

The walls if the city of Dubrovnik, Croatia

Play the Game of Thrones

If you’re a fan of the hit book-series-made-TV-show, you’ll know that Dubrovnik is, was and always will be King’s Landing. Yes, you can visit multiple Game of Thrones filming locations here, including Rector’s Palace (where Daenerys asked the Spice King for ships), Lovrijenac Fort (the Red Keep) and The Jesuit Steps (where Cersei walked with shame). You can take a GOT walking tour or visit the iconic sites at your own pace before or after your trip (shame not advised).

Traditional Croatian Peka lunch with meat and potatoes in pan

Daytrip to the Konavle region

Just south of the city, Konavle is known as the Golden Valley of Dubrovnik. With the most fertile ground, this region is filled with vineyards and fruit trees. Visit the small town of Cavtat with its beautiful architecture, ancient history and pebble beaches, then tuck into a traditional ‘peka’ lunch. Featuring lamb and other meats cooked under an iron bell (and a glass of Croatian wine), your foodie heart will be more than satiated.

Sail the open seas of the Adriatic

Starting with the Elafiti Islands (which include Kolocep, Lopud and Sipan), why not use Dubrovnik as your base to island hop the Croatian coastline? Take a small motor yacht or sailing boat to Korcula, Hvar, Brac, Mljet and Vis and spend your days lounging on sundecks, exploring port towns, swimming in super clear waters and making friends. Stroll through olive groves and citrus trees, indulge in long lunches with locals and try a glass (or three) of local Croatian wine.
