Dubrovnik · CITY WALLS & OLD TOWN
45 ways to explore
The walls are the one thing nobody skips, and the tour you pick decides whether you understand what you are looking at. Below are the best city walls and old town walks: which go early to beat the heat and the cruise crowds, which cover the 1991 siege, and what each one costs.

Two guided walks in Dubrovnik for $50: Old Town streets with stories of Ragusa, plus the full city walls with nonstop Adriatic views.
“Dover was a very good tour guide. He informed in good details about this historic city. I was glad I did the old city at 4.00pm and the city walls at 6pm. The next day we went for a tour of locrum islands and betina caves to reach back to port by 1.30. This way we could make full use of the Dubrovonic pass one day pass that was valid till 6pm the next day.”
