Dubrovnik Walls & Wars Walking Tour
What your day looks like
Do you know that Dubrovnik was protected by both defensive fortifications and the diplomatic skills of its leaders? This historic walk will focus on the defensive and political challenges faced by Dubrovnik in its struggle to survive as a tiny (yet prosperous) independent republic facing serious threats from powerful and dangerous enemies. Over the centuries, the leaders and the walls of Dubrovnik both held firm. This tour is a bit steep due to all the stairs on the city walls and therefore not suitable for everyone. It is also not suitable for pregnant women and there are no planned bathroom breaks in this 2-hour tour. Intrigued by our rivals, enemies, conflicts, and wars? Then this is a perfect tour for you! Entrance ticket is 40 Eur per person and NOT included in tour price. Can be purchased on spot, or you can use your Dubrovnik Pass to enter the walls once.
Why travelers choose this experience
- Focus on the defensive and political challenges faced by Dubrovnik
- Go on top and around the city walls for breathtaking views of the port and the old town
