Greetings, dear guests! It'll be my pleasure to host you in Dubrovnik during your stay! I am Ivana and I am an official licensed guide for Dubrovnik and Dubrovnik-Neretva County. Before I decided to become a full-time tour guide, I was studying at American College of Management and Technology in Dubrovnik, division of Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) where I majored in Small Business. After graduation, for several years I was working in management of one Croatian hotel chain when I decided to make a big career change and pursue new adventures. I enjoy my job in such extent I stopped considering it a job long time ago. Every day is an opportunity to meet new people from all over the world which is one of the greatest benefits of this job. During the guiding, I try to depict what life used to be like in old Ragusa and what life is like today in Dubrovnik. Of course, ages, years, architectural styles are all equally important, but without the perspective of any given era, guiding becomes a dull historical class which is definitely not my style. I take advantage of every winter, when business is a bit slower (we are mainly a summer destination), to travel around to wherever and to catch up on my reading. What intrigues me the most are Dubrovnik's legends and stories one cannot easily access on the Internet. I am not focused only on history, I also do Game of Thrones tours that are vastly popular in Dubrovnik (or should I say, King's Landing) - on this tour I take you to filming sites and locations and share stories from the set. The rest of my tour offers are available on the page here where you can check them out in more detail. If there is anything more you'd like to find out about me or the tours I offer, you can contact me on this page as well. I am looking forward to meeting you and being your guide here in Dubrovnik! Yours truly, Ivana Official licensed tour guide for Dubrovnik-Neretva County I am a licensed guide, and have no restrictions.

Overview of your Dubrovnik tour

Join me on an immersive Game of Thrones tour in Dubrovnik which will take you to Trsteno Arboretum - also known as Gardens of King's Landing; followed by Dubrovnik's old town - King's Landing. Even if you're not a huge Game of Thrones fan, this tour is ideal for you as it takes you to the best locations there are in Dubrovnik, being able to take breathtaking photos and visit places us locals take most pride in. We won't talk about Game of Thrones for the entire time, because Dubrovnik's history was truly remarkable, and its parts served as an inspiration to Game of Thrones - I'll reveal to you which parts those were; on the other hand, if you're a hard-core GoT fan, this is the ideal tour - I'll share with you all my inside knowledge of the filming, and we can also comment how we liked the big finale of the best TV show in history :)

Ivana was an amazing guide. She was so well versed in the history of her region and applied it perfectly to what we were seeing. An added feature was her ability to show digital slides of the Game of Thrones scenes and the spots they were actually filmed in. She was extremely gracious and punctual. After the tour she was happy to make recommendations to us and took care to make sure we didn’t fall pray to any tourist traps. Ivana’s English language skills were remarkable!! I highly recommend her!

She did an excellent job on the tour. We were a family of 6 and she needed to pivot as we were completing a Backroads trip and toured part of Dubrovnik in the morning and so did a fantastic job modifying here tour to accommodate us.

Ivana was a terrific guide to Dubrovnik in terms and history and game of thrones filming. She did a great job covering a lot of historical information as we walked through old town and later in the Trsteno Arboretum. She answered all of our many questions and had endless fun facts for when we ran out of questions! We highly recommend Ivana to get to know old town and to see the amazing places game of thrones was filmed!

We are on a world cruise visiting 52 countries and 75 ports. Hands down, Ivana was our best tour guide that we have toured with in the last six months. . She was knowledgeable, entertaining and very friendly. We walked next to other tours that had large groups and the tour guide’s English was so poor, the guest gave up. She was extremely articulate and clear. We would highly recommend! You will definitely not be disappointed. She is the best of the best!

Ivana took our family on a fabulous tour of a beautiful city. We started with the arboretum/garden which was beautiful…and then toured the old city, starting at the fort and wandering through the city. The tour was great and Dubrovnik was amazing. As half our group liked game of thrones and half was totally indifferent, Ivana did a nice job of giving us both some history of the city and some game of thrones stories.
