Hello, my name is Tomislav, or Tom for friends. Apart from being a licensed tourist guide for Dubrovnik region from 2007 and a lecturer in History of Dubrovnik class at local university, I am also a well-travelled person that has always enjoyed experiencing new exciting destinations, their history and local traditions. Since travelling is one of my passions, I have always had high respect for local advice and an 'insider insight' in local history, culture and traditions as an indispensable ingredient of a great holiday which enables the traveller to get the real feel of the destination; this was also one of the reasons why I decided to become a professional tourist guide. Although I'm featured on ToursByLocals only from 2013, I was able to make it to the list of TOP 10 busiest every year. In 2014 & 2015 I earned the title of the BUSIEST TOUR GUIDE, out of 1930 guides from 156 countries present on ToursByLocals. I am also the only guide from Dubrovnik and Croatia that ever made it to that list. I was born 45 years ago in Dubrovnik, a town in which I have spent most of my life, but which never ceases to amaze me. It is clear why the tourists, especially the first time visitors, become so enchanted with this medieval walled city; however most of them are unfortunately prone to overlook some of its most interesting and astonishing details. My aim is to provide the visitors with an intimate experience of Dubrovnik so they can truly understand and appreciate Dubrovnik's rich cocktail of history, architecture, art and exquisite Mediterranean cuisine. My tours are generally conducted in an informal and laid back manner as I learned that the best way to feel the destination is to simply have fun while exploring. In case you have already visited Dubrovnik or you have a bit more time at your disposal, I would suggest venturing further in Dubrovnik surroundings. There are diverse possibilities for half day and full day trips in the near vicinity of Dubrovnik and I will be happy to assist you in compiling a perfect tailor-made itinerary. IMPORTANT: I may still be available even on days marked UNAVAILABLE depending on your preferred timing for the tour. Therefore, it is best to contact me and check my availability directly. - Licensed Tourist Guide for Dubrovnik region from 2007 - member of Dubrovnik Tourist Guide Association - B.A. degree in Foreign Trade at University of Split - M.A. degree in International Relations & Diplomacy at Dubrovnik International University - part-time lecturer at DIU university (specialized in History of Dubrovnik & the Balkans) - certified sommelier - genuine Game of Thrones/Song of Ice and Fire fan No restrictions

Overview of your Dubrovnik tour

You're a GOT fan and have a bit more time in Dubrovnik so you'd like to explore all the filming points in the Old Town of Dubrovnik and its surroundings? No problem - the Game of Thrones Combo Tour is the right thing for you! And I am the right man for the job - a true GOT fan and the author of the best selling tour in period 2013-2019! This tour combines the drive to the iconic locations in the Dubrovnik area that were featured in the GOT with the walking tour around the filming sites in the Old Town of Dubrovnik. Aside from the nooks and crannies of fabled King's Landing, you will have a chance to visit the magnificent "Tyrell gardens" of the Trsteno Arboretum and the breathtaking panoramic vistas of the Mt of St Serge, where Tyron met the Dornish party and Jaime said goodbye to Brienne. Last, but not least, you will also learn a lot of inside information from the filming and will learn why the HBO picked these stunning locations for the show!

BEST Tour of our 10 Day cruise ! I highly recommend if you are a Game of Thrones Fan to book this private tour with Tom. Great communication with him from booking to end of tour. He was born and raised in Dubrovnik so we received history on the city while traveling to our locations. Tom took us to places that the tour buses would not be able to get to, such as the Gardens & on top of the hill where you can look down upon the actual walled city where GOT was filmed. We were the only ones in the Gardens when we arrived and we never came across anyone else while taking photos. Tom is very knowledgeable regarding filming and the scenes that took place at exact locations. We were able to sit on the Iron throne and had a wonderful lunch by the water. Very personable and enjoyed him very much!

We really, really enjoyed our tour, and especially our guide, Tomislav. He was very knowledgeable about the history of Dubrovnik and Croatia and surrounding areas (and the Game of Thrones!), as well as the architecture, etc. We highly recommend using him as your guide. Thanks, Tom!

PERFECT!! Tom is an outstanding guide and provided us with a wonderful experience. He went out of his way to provide an interesting and insightful tour of Dubrovnik, and made this stop the highlight of our vacation. I'm sending friends and family and suggesting they tour with Tom!!

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Tom and his tour of Dubrovnik. One in the group had difficulty climbing stairs. Tom went out of his way to take ramps and alternate routes so that we climbed the fewest stairs possible and still see amazing sights. His Game of Thrones, historical, and architectural knowledge was incredible. Tom definitely went above and beyond to make Dubrovnik very special for us.

We had a great morning with Tom - excellent tour of the overlook of Dubrovnik, the arboretum and the Old Town, complete with all of the important highlight views from Game Of Thrones. One of us is a big fan of the show, the other not so much - but the tour was great for both of us.

Transport details
Type: Private Transportation / Category: Suv

Most of the mentioned locations are in the pedestrian zone so this will generally be a walking tour. The transportation between the Trsteno Arboretum and Dubrovnik will be done using an air conditioned tour guide's vehicle (Suzuki S-Cross SUV). However, if you prefer more legroom, minivan transportation can be arranged for a higher price. The same thing goes for bigger groups than 4 persons.
