Conosciuta anche come l'Atene croata, la città di Dubrovnik, dichiarata Patrimonio dell'Umanità dall'UNESCO, è certamente all'altezza del riconoscimento. Le antiche mura della città, con le sue miriadi di torri e torrette, risalgono al X secolo e proteggono i numerosi e imponenti monumenti del centro storico. I tour a piedi visitano tutte le principali attrazioni tra cui la Fontana di Onofrio, il Monastero e il Museo Francescani, la Cattedrale di Dubrovnik, il Palazzo del Rettore, il Palazzo Sponza di epoca rinascimentale, la Chiesa di San Biagio e, naturalmente, le antiche mura della città di Dubrovnik. Al di là del centro storico, le spiagge della città e le isole circostanti sono apprezzate sia dai viaggiatori che dalla gente del posto. Fai un tour guidato in kayak di mare o snorkeling per scoprire grotte e spiagge lungo la costa dalmata. Oppure fai una crociera in traghetto, motoscafo, galeone replica del XVI secolo o persino yacht privato verso le isole Elafiti, Lokrum, l'isola di Korcula (dove nacque Marco Polo) e altro ancora. Per un vero assaggio della Croazia, fai una gita di un giorno nella regione della Valle di Konavle e trascorri la giornata facendo escursioni, andando in bicicletta o degustando vini tra le montagne, i vigneti, i villaggi e gli uliveti. La penisola di Pelješac è anche famosa per il suo vino e molte escursioni combinano degustazioni a Pelješac con soste nella città costiera di Ston, nota per le sue ostriche e la vecchia fabbrica di sale. E per i viaggi a lungo raggio, dirigiti in Bosnia ed Erzegovina, dove la città di Mostar abbaglia tutti coloro che ammirano il suo iconico ponte, e in Montenegro, il piccolo paese dove le città medievali incontrano la bellezza naturale dei fiordi.
With its program of open-air theater, film, and music, Dubrovnik Summer Festival offers a cultural alternative to the non-stop parties in coastal Croatia. After a summer spent beach- and island-hopping, the crowds depart and leave fall and winter—when the mild climate is ideal for sightseeing and Christmas markets offer festive fun—realtively quiet.

is thinking that the Dubrovnik City Walls are too touristy. To escape the crowds and the sun, visit first thing in the morning or right before closing.
Dubrovnik has always been popular for its coastal location, balmy climate, and architecture. The interest in filming locations for HBO's Game of Thrones has boosted its popularity. High season is intense. Beat the crowds by visiting outside of summer, or seeing main attractions in the early morning or evening.
...AltroA stroll around Dubrovnik's city walls is a must. Access the walkway via the Ploče Gate and enjoy views of Old Town, Adriatic Sea, forts, lookouts, and Game of Thrones filming locations. For something uniquely Dubrovnikian, take a boat to the islands or cable car to the Mt. Srd peak.
...AltroTwo days is enough time in Dubrovnik. Start early for a walking tour of Dubrovnik's city walls and Old Town. Then, take a sea excursion or unwind on a sunset cruise. The next day, take a cable car up Mt. Srd or a day tour of Mljet, Lokrum, or Elafiti Islands.
...AltroYes. English is widely spoken in Dubrovnik, as it is a popular tourist destination. Locals may not be fluent, but most tourist-serving staff speak English. The official language of Croatia is Croatian, and locals appreciate it if you know a few key phrases.
...AltroYes. Dubrovnik is worth visiting thanks to its unique history, local cuisine, and striking coastline—though these days it's best to avoid the high season and cruise arrival rush hours. If you do get stuck in the tourist traffic, there's still a great deal to enjoy—it'll just be crowded.
...AltroYes. Popular Dubrovnik is a little more expensive than other destinations on the Adriatic Coast. There are ways to save while sightseeing, though. Choose tours that include meals or entrance fees, and take advantage of inclusive deals such as the Dubrovnik Card, which bundles unlimited travel with attraction access.
