Full description

Get to the city walls as soon as the gates open on this guided walking tour in Dubrovnik. Uncover the secrets of this must-see city sight on a shared or a private tour. Capture pictures of sweeping views from the top of the Minceta Tower. 

Meet your guide at a centrally-located meeting point and begin your early morning adventure. As you walk, learn from your guide about how the wall was built. Listen to exciting legends and funny tales about the city.  

Get started by climbing some steps in the cool morning air to be rewarded with a breathtaking panoramic view of the main street of Stradun and the skyline of the Old Town. 

Stroll along 2 kilometers of the wall to enjoy beautiful landscapes of the sparkling Adriatic Sea and a skyline that still speaks of the splendor of a town that was a wealthy republic for 450 years. 

See how the wall is six meters deep in some places and pass by forts looking out to both sea and land. End your tour at the highest point along the wall, the top of Minceta Tower, where the view is not to be missed.

Great early morning wall walk. Our guide was very knowledgeable, answered questions, gave us historical perspectives and had a good sense of humor. Remember to buy your wall pass in advance - not included in your fee. Even in September at 8am it got warm fast. Bring a hat and some water although there are a few places on the wall you can get drinks or coffee. Recommend.

First of all... Davor (spelling?) was amazing! He made the experience so much better with his great energy and humor. He was extremely knowledgeable and had an obvious passion for the history of the city/country. We loved his visuals and he had great recommendations along the way (where to grab drinks along the tour...get the watermelon juice near the end!... along with places to eat/things to do afterwards in the city). The tour itself was perfect. Wall tickets were easy to purchase online the night before (not included in the price). Meeting spot was easy to find (couple tour guides there at the bus stop). Well paced and great information was provided along the way. We're grateful we did the early tour as it felt more intimate and we could fully enjoy the sights without the crowds. And by the end of the tour you could see how busy it would get if you went later in the day. DO NOT HESITATE to book this tour!

Our guided tour of the city walls with local Ivo was excellent! Ivo was very knowledgeable and had an answer to every question. It was good to explore the city walls before it was too hot and before the crowds came. I would and have recommended this tour to others!
