Tour description
With this free walking tour, you will explore Dubrovnik center as a local would. I will make sure that you discover all the secrets and beauty of this city.
For 450 years the aristocratic city-state Republic of Dubrovnik held independence (14th-19th cent.) between big and powerful rivals and natural disasters in very turbulent European medieval times.
Old Town was the capital of the Dubrovnik Republic, a center of once small size but significant maritime power. Today Old Town of Dubrovnik is a UNESCO world heritage site, a location that is almost like a big open museum where time almost stopped for centuries. Surrounded by ancient 2 km ditched city walls with numerous towers and forts.
Walking route:
From the City gates of Pile (west entrance), through a stone bridge with a wooden suspension below the tower, via main street Stradun (Placa) to the City gates Ploče (east entrance) and few little streets by side.

Had a great tour with Vedran around the old town. The group size was small so he was attentive to answer all our questions and made sure we engaged in the conversation. I like that he also told his family experiences over generations along the country's regime shifts in the last few decades.

Vedran made the best of the rainy weather and gave us the information about the city while doing his best to keep us dry. We learned a lot from him and had great conversation with him
