City Walls Dubrov - Having a guide is not a must have but preferable if you want to understand the history. Go early morning or late pm to avoid heat if the day and the cruise ships

Dovar was a walking encyclopaedia! The best guide I've ever come across with. - Oh my gosh, what an amazing experience this was! Dovar was absolutely amazing and oh so knowledgable. We learned so much about history of Dubrovnik. We opted for a 6pm tour and we managed to finish our walk right at the sunset. Definitely an added bonus to be located on the highest point watching the sun set over the city. Definitely recommend to everyone.

City walls walking tour - We had a great time with Davor, he had great stories and lots of interesting information about the history of old town and the military battles endured. We went on the 6pm tour which was perfect, a little cooler and had the opportunity to see the most beautiful sunset. Would definitely recommend, I will note you cover a long distance and there are a ton of stairs to climb, for us this was no problem and even fun but definitely something to consider if that is a problem for anyone in your group.

Awesome Tour with History and Views - We had a great experience with Davor. The tour walks the entire wall with good history from the Roman Empire to the 1990 War for Independence. Davor was very knowledgeable, he kept a good pace and was extremely friendly. Not to mention the stunning views of the city and opportunity to take in the breeze. It is not a difficult tour, but there are a decent amount of stair and uneven terrain. It is hot during our hike even in the morning and Davor did a nice job finding us shade while he spoke. There is a restroom halfway through the tour. You can buy refreshments at three different spots (one was cash only) and after the tour you can spend as much time up there as you want.
