Overview of your Dubrovnik tour

Jewish heritage of Dubrovnik - Premium tour is a more supplementary and comprehensive variation of my standard Dubrovnik Jewish heritage tour. This 3 hour walking tour has an emphasis on presenting the history and the culture of Jewish community in Dubrovnik and at the same time, simultaneously points to showcase past and present traditions and historical significance of Dubrovnik through its most recognizable and outstanding monumental heritage, in particular - the city walls. This extended tour takes a little physical strain, taken into consideration the need to climb along Dubrovnik City walls, but I believe it is worthy of the effort and I am confident that you will agree with me when you experience the most inspiring panoramic views of the Old town. As your private guide I would be happy to present you Dubrovnik's most remarkable and fascinating religious, cultural and historic legacy.

Tonka gave us a great walking tour of Dubrovnik. She was personable, knowledgable, full of information about the history and architecture of the City. She took us around all the sites and the Jewish area and allowed us to proceed at our own pace. A great guide!

Tonka was an incredibly knowledgeable, warm and personable tour guide. My husband and I took a lot of photos so she was extremely patient and willing to modify our tour based on our interests and desires. Tonka was also able to answer every question we asked and added a lot of personal anecdotes which made the city's history come alive. It was quite hot the day of our tour and Tonka could tell when we needed a water, gelato or bathroom break and she was also able to recommend some wonderful restaurants enjoyed by locals not just tourists. We've already recommended Tonka to several couples we met along the way while we were traveling and even forwarded her contact info to friends at home who will be traveling to Croatia. My husband and I would highly recommend Tonk if you're looking for a tour guide in Dubrovnik!

Tonka was knowledgeable, patient and intuitive. We had a 3hr walking tour including Jewish history around the old town which was an ideal amount of time, especially in the heat. We weren't rushed at all and it was a very personal tour and we learnt so much. Great guide, highly recommended with excellent English.
