Informative, well paced and engaging - Our experience was wonderful! We learned so much from our guide, a native of Dubrovnik, which made the tour even more special. Highly recommend starting with a walking tour before exploring the sites on your own.

Amazing tour of Old Town - We had the most WONDERFUL tour with Karmen! She was smart, knowledgeable and kind - even giving my son tips for his upcoming semester at the University of Dubrovnik. I cannot recommend her highly enough!!!

Unforgettable, Culturally Rich Experience – A Must-Do in Montenegro! - Please don’t pass up this incredible, culturally rich experience in Montenegro. We had an unexpected delay when our cruise ship made a last-minute stop to help a medically distressed passenger, which pushed our arrival into port back significantly. Despite the sudden change, the communication with the tour company was kind, flexible, and incredibly patient. They stayed in touch frequently and adjusted plans smoothly, which we truly appreciated. We were blown away by the hospitality and the depth of local culture shared with us. The food in Montenegro is absolutely amazing — and the locally cured hams are unforgettable! You can truly taste the tradition and care that goes into them. Kotor itself is a gem — historically rich, breathtakingly beautiful, and full of character. We were left wanting more and are already dreaming about returning to explore even deeper. Highly recommend this tour and this company — they go above and beyond to make your visit to Montenegro something truly special.

Fantastic walking tour with the lovely Barbara - thoroughly enjoyed it and would definitely recommend. - Barbara was a brilliant guide for our Dubrovnik walking tour - we learnt so much about not only the city itself, but also about daily life which was fascinating. Barbara was so lovely and engaging and we thoroughly enjoyed our time with her. Topped off a fabulous tour with a drink at a lovely cafe. The tour itself is mainly on the flat so no issues with too many steps!! Would definitely recommend.

Seeing The real Dubrovnik - Danijela was an excellent guide taking us through the little streets, often away from the crowds and gave a great overview of the history of this beautiful place. Thank you for an interesting time - we enjoyed the little treat stop and learning about your culture and history. This was a perfect introduction to the City - we highly recommend this tour.

The perfect old town tour - We booked this through trip advisor who allocated Viator for the tour. They gave us Desa. Desa is local to the old town, in fact grew up there. We could not have asked for more. Desa is passionate about history and in fact is an educated historian. We are a couple in our fifties and don’t do crowds but want to learn about the history of the places we visit. Desa was perfect for us, lots of interesting history, we stayed away from the crowds and had a fantastic 2 hours. Great way to see the old town and get your bearings with an excellent guide. Thank you Desa.

Short tour, full of surprises! - Our day in Dubrovnik was towards the end of our 12-day cruise, so we were pretty tired and hot by this point in our vacation. Our guide, Vesna, was very knowledgeable and friendly. She showed us several sights off the beaten track, even pointing out the house she grew up in! She took us to an incredible view from, get this - a basketball court! It's the basketball court with the best view in the world, according to the WSJ...and I can see why. She was very good about keeping us in the shade as much as possible for my fair-skinned husband. And she brought us to a gelato place to try the local bitter orange flavor - yum! We learned a lot about the history of Croatia and Dubrovnik in particular, and what it was like growing up and living there. She took some great pictures of the two of us, which I very much appreciate. During our tour, we came across a bird that looked unable to fly. So she picked it up and moved it to higher ground. We took a few pictures - it turns out that the bird is protected, which we learned when she posted the picture online and Animal Protection reached out to locate it for protection!
