Overview

This tour will show you the Old Town through the eyes of a local - all our guides are locals of Dubrovnik and all of us are very passionate about the history of our city. It's not just showing you around and sharing intriguing stories, it's about fully immersing into the life of Dubrovnik people, today and centuries ago! Some of us grew up inside the walls and will gladly show you where we used to play as kids; you'll get to see interesting details and experience Dubrovnik in a whole new way. Think of this not only as a tour but also as a walk with a friendly local. We want this tour to be a personable experience for all our guests - we guarantee small groups. There will never be more than eight guests per guide. We want you to make the most of this, get to know the city, its history and your local guide!
