This was a fun activity! We did this excursion with our children, even though they hadn't seen the show and we all had a great time! Davor, our guide was awesome and did a great job of showing us the sites, with some Game of Thrones flavor and he was very helpful in providing us with some recommendations of what we should see while in Dubrovnik and places to eat. We would recommend this tour.

The tour was very interesting and well structured and our guide Ivana made it event better and more interesting. She is very knowledgeable (she is also history teacher) and the time flew with her. Visiting the private basement where the one family use to practically live during the war and which is organized like a small museum is a special "touch" on this tour! Recommended!

We were promptly picked up from our hotel in a mini van.. Our guide Lucy was incredibly sweet and very knowledgeable. She told us a lot about Croatias history and was extremely patient while answering our questions. The trip itself was hundred percent worth it and overall we had a great day!

Nice guide! Glad you have a guided tour and a large part free time. The journey is also not too bad because you have a number of nice stops in between and the guide tells you a lot

Great day trip to the Plitvice lakes. Our guide Bojan was amazing!
