About this experience

I’m Dorotea, a self-employed local guide in Dubrovnik. I lead small groups (max 6) for a personal and relaxed experience — every tour is guided by me.

We’ll meet at Ploče Gate and walk through the Old Town as I share stories of Dubrovnik’s rich history and how the Republic stayed independent for centuries. You’ll hear what daily life was like for its people and what made them unique.

Then we’ll explore Dubrovnik’s Game of Thrones side — see filming locations like the “Walk of Shame” and hear fun behind-the-scenes stories.

The tour ends at Pile Gate, with a few more local stories and final insights into this remarkable city.

Note: The schedule and route can be adjusted to your wishes.
