About this experience

Step aboard the magnificent Galleon Tirena and set sail on a timeless journey through Dubrovnik’s maritime past.

Your adventure begins as you cross the plank and step onto this beautifully crafted wooden vessel, echoing the spirit of 16th-century seafarers. The scent of salt in the air and the gentle creak of the ship’s planks transport you to an era when Dubrovnik’s ships ruled the Adriatic.

As the sun dips towards the horizon, casting golden hues upon the ancient city walls, Galleon Tirena glides along the shimmering sea. A knowledgeable guide on board will share fascinating stories of Dubrovnik’s seafaring heritage, legendary trade routes, and the breathtaking landmarks that come into view along the way.

The cruise starts exactly on the set time and cannot wait for anyone. Please be at the meeting point at least 20 min earlier.
