Great tour! We are fans of the show, but you don’t have to be to take the tour - but obviously there will be spoilers. Our tour guide, Ivo (not sure about the spelling) was also fantastic - was on time, very humorous and super friendly. It was also cool that he was an extra on the show and shared his experiences being on set. The tour was also a great way to learn about how the city of Dubrovnik evolved during the tapping of GOT. We went during the winter, so we were also thankful that we were able to get a booking since they can fill up - especially during peak seasons. Great tour and I highly recommend it!

Sir Davos… Oh sorry Davor has a lot information about Game of Thrones and how it was filmed… He is so nice and always make jokes… We started very energetic but at the end of the tour the energy wasn’t the same… I only recommend to put a little bit energy at the end… Everything was fun…

We had such a great time with Ivo. He explained with reference and an entertaining style. We shared a lot of laughs, especially when we talked about his experience being an extra in a purple Wedding shoot. I hope to see him again soon on another trip. Very recommended..

Really enjoyable tour, Davor was very knowledge and made the tour really entertaining. If I came back I’d definitely book with him again just for the craic of it!

Interesting and great to do. Good photo opportunities and guide was great.
