Experience the wall fortress system of Dubrovnik as you learn about the City Walls and soak up the rich history of the Old Town.

Exploring the ancient City Walls is a must-do activity for anybody who visits Dubrovnik. Your expert guide will share interesting facts about the history of the area, the significance of the Walls and how they were built, and much more. You’ll recognise the different styles of architecture as you walk along the cobbled streets like Renaissance, Gothic, and Baroque. After some climbing, a sweeping panoramic view of the Old Town and the Adriatic Sea will greet you. Take some lovely photos of the streets, terracotta rooftops, churches, towers, and buildings basked in the warm sunlight. Walk along 2-km of the Wall and enjoy the skyline. It’s no wonder that this city was a protected and wealthy republic for centuries and deserves the status of ‘Pearl of the Adriatic’.

The tour ends at the highest point of the Minceta Tower with even more amazing views to experience.
