Overview of your Dubrovnik tour

Captivating City Walls tour is envisioned as an extensive 3 hour long walking tour that combines relaxed and enjoyable stroll through Dubrovnik's historic core with the visit to Dubrovnik's most famous historical landmark - the City Walls. Highlight of the tour are monumental walls of Dubrovnik, a must see attraction, whose outstanding construction process encompassed time period of over 500 years. The walls proudly stand today as the Dubrovnik's main identifier, surviving centuries of turbulent historical events. During our tour we will climb and walk half the perimeter of this marvelous medieval fortification system which will require some physical strain, but the most stunning panoramic views of the Old town make it definitely worthy of the effort, and I am confident that you will agree with me after you experience it yourself. As your private guide I would love to invite you to explore with me most stunning scenes, sites and exceptional monumental heritage of this lovely town.

Tonka was fabulous. Her English is perfect. Tonka has a superb knowledge of the history of Dubrovnik. Very enjoyable to be with. I would highly recommend her for your Dubrovnik tour in the future. She was also very flexible with us due to bad weather. We waited the rain out until 4 pm and we got the tour done on the a day that could have been miserable. Thank you so much Tonka.

We had a wonderful private tour of the Old Town and of the walls with Tonka. We learned so much about Dubrovnik’s older history along with how more recent events in history have deeply affected the community there.
