Hi dear guests, My name is Darko and I was born and raised in Dubrovnik where I have spent most of my life. My home town, its medieval city walls and its picturesque surroundings are something that I have always found magically enchanting. That is one of the reasons why I chose to spend the last 19 years of my life working in tourism. At the beginning I worked as a professional driver/guide, and since 2014 as a licensed tourist guide. All of these have given me the possibility to do something that fulfills me, and makes me really happy: exploring my country, presenting it to our guests, meeting new people from different parts of the world. . . But most of all I enjoy having direct contact with the guests, and creating customized tours that can suite a wide range of their wishes. If you decide to honor us with your presence in our small unique city, I will be more than happy to guide you through its amazing historical and cultural heritage and through its beautiful surroundings with adding a local flavor to your overall holiday experience. I am sure that with my assistance you will know why we, the Dubrovnik locals, are so amazed with our small city, all achievements of our ancestors, who have once created such an amazing city tailored to suit a mankind. So if you are interested in spending just a few hours, a whole day time or even a few days to explore Dubrovnik area or neighboring countries and their history, tradition, cuisine in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere, you might consider some of the tours I have created for you. And please keep in your mind that everything is optional so I can create a tour that suits your personal preferences. Feel free to contact me and we will make your perfect tour together !!!

Overview of your Dubrovnik tour

Southern most part of Croatia hides a magnificent country side, called Konavle. It is located just a bit south of Dubrovnik and it is amazing mix of pure nature and historical and cultural heritage of great value. Hidden traces of different civilizations since prehistoric times up to present day are the proof. . . If you are not a history buff it doesn't matter. This area enchants with its beauty and diversity. Snježnica mount, steep Konavle rocks that rise above the crystal clear sea, fertile Konavle field, hypnotic beauty of cypress trees and 33 Mediterranean villages scattered around are my favorite oases of peace. I am sure you will feel the same !!! Protected natural landscape of river LJUTA treats us with coolness in hot summer days and 400 years old, preserved water mills reminds us of ingenuity of our ancestors. Right here our good spirit of Konavle IVO, will present you his family mills just after refreshment handed to you by the local girls in traditional costumes. And Cavtat town awaiting.
