Overview of your Dubrovnik tour

Join me on the "History Tour" and explore the city of Dubrovnik with a local guide who was born and raised just outside the city walls. Dubrovnik History Tour is a combination of the Dubrovnik legends, Dubrovnik history, and local experience. Dubrovnik was it's own republic for almost 500 years and in this tour you will learn how the politics functioned in medieval times, why Dubrovnik was a "trading force" in its prime and what Dubrovnik offered to the world that we still use today. I will show you how Dubrovnik was built trough out the years and how everything that happened is reflected by the people today. You will also see how people live today, what gets us going, and what customs we still nourish today. Considering I'm a true local that was born and raised inside the Old City I'm more than capable to show you around Dubrovnik. Sounds interesting? Join me and experience Dubrovnik like a true local! With regards, Marko
