🏰 **Thoughtful, Flexible, and Rich with History** -
We booked the Walls of Dubrovnik walking tour eight months in advance, but about a month before our trip, one of our group members underwent major surgery that impacted mobility and endurance. Thankfully, we were the only four on the tour that day, which turned out to be a blessing.
Marco, with his deep knowledge of the city and its history, immediately offered an alternative route that didn’t involve climbing the stairs or walking the wall. Bruno, our guide, adapted the tour seamlessly—without missing a beat. He made sure we still experienced the rich history and stunning sights of Dubrovnik, and his storytelling brought the city to life.
Bruno also recommended a fantastic restaurant where we enjoyed a delicious lunch, rounding out a truly memorable day.
If you have mobility concerns, I would advise against booking the full wall tour due to the many stairs involved. But thanks to the team’s flexibility and thoughtfulness, we were able to enjoy a meaningful and accessible experience. We’re so grateful and would absolutely recommend Viator for your tours.

Top Notch - deeply Knowledgeabie - Marko was an amazing, personable, knowledgeable, engaging host. His qualifications as an Old Town local made for as rich a local experience as we could have dreamed of. He engaged everyone in our small group individually.

Highly recommend! - This tour was fantastic! Marko was an amazing guide and offered such an insightful tour of the City walls. He made the tour super fun and interactive, and shared his perspective about growing up in the walled city. It was also really nice to be in a small group which could easily navigate the crowds.

An engaging and thoroughly enjoyable morning - Brilliant way to spend a morning! We wanted a small group tour where we were able to really take in what our guide was showing us and that’s exactly what we got. Our group ended up only being 4 people which was perfect! Went at a good pace, lots of interesting historical information as well as local knowledge. Marco was a superb guide and kept us engaged and entertained the whole way round (#norniron). Thank you! Thoroughly recommend.

Dubrovnik old town wall tour - Early morning old town wall tour.
Very informative guide. Marko was excellent backed up with local knowledge from living in the town .
Definitely worth a visit. The price for the guide is fair, however you need to be aware that you have to pay an additional 40 euros per person to enter the wall. This meant that the total cost was over 150 euros.
The views were amazing with awesome photo opportunities.
The refreshments at the first selling point were expensive and much cheaper at the next.
All in all I am glad that we took the tour and would recommend if you visit Dubrovnik or somewhere close to the area.

Excellent Walking Tour!! - Marko was an excellent guide, speaking with clarity and knowledge. A tour of the walls is a MUST in Dubrovnik!! However, if looking down from heights is a problem for you, & climbing up and down steps is an issue, then this walking tour might be one to avoid!!
