What To Expect

Your exclusive 'Game of Thrones' tour of Dubrovnik starts as you meet your guide at Pile Square in Old Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Take off on your walking tour along the historic streets, stopping to check out locations used in the filming of the uber-popular HBO television show, adapted from George R.R. Martin's 'A Song of Ice and Fire' epic novel series that spans many years of brutal fighting between the noble families of fictional Westeros.

The show is shot in locations throughout Europe, but Dubrovnik, with its red rooftops and stunning coastal location on the Adriatic Sea, is one of the most recognizable as King’s Landing, the capital of the realm’s seven kingdoms. Trace Ayra Stark's footsteps to see where she hid from the Lannisters on the streets; walk up the city walls that were attacked by the Baratheons; and check out Lovrijenac Fortress, an 11th-century castle perched high above the sea, aka Blackwater Bay, which is featured in battle scenes, most prominently the Battle of Blackwater.

You also see a softer side of things as you visit parks and other open spaces used to film scenes set in the countryside. Throughout your tour, listen to commentary from your guide about the various characters who have come in and out of King's Landing, including the three main families—Targaryens, Baratheons, and Starks. Your tour ends when you return to your start point in Old Town.

Trsteno Arboretum Upgrade: To enhance your 'Game of Thrones' experience, select the upgrade option to visit Trsteno Arboretum, one of the oldest arboretums in Croatia. Travel to the park by minibus at the end of your walking tour to discover this additional filming location, used as King's Landing's palace gardens during the show's third season. Explore thousands of trees and exotic plants, and admire Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque details while you hear more about the War of the Five Kings. Your tour ends with drop-off at the original starting point in Old Town.

Pile Gate

Meeting our licensed tour guide by the 'Dubravka 1836' restaurant at Pile Square marks the start of your exclusive 'Game of Thrones' tour. Placed right outside the Old Town city walls, this spot is just perfect not only for providing you with introductory details about the tour, but also for drawing your attention to some of the city attractions you will hear more about later on the tour: the Pile Gate, the Old Town city walls, the Lovrijenac fort.

5 minutesAdmission Ticket Free

Fort Lovrijenac

Nicknamed 'the Dubrovnik Gibraltar', but also known as the Red Keep among the Game of Thrones fans, the Lovrijenac fortress rises on a cliff outside the Old Town city walls, 37 m (121 ft) above sea level. Built in the 11th century within just three months' time, this fort symbolizes the resistance to the Venetian Republic. Visiting the Lovrijenac fortress on this walking tour is a chance for you to enjoy many impressive views of the capital of the Seven Kingdoms.

Traveler Tips


Make sure to wear comfy shoes and bring water, there will be times you have to climb lots of steps (just like anywhere in Dubrovnik
Also, if you have mobility issues it will be difficult to do the Tour, there is a lot of climbing up stairs.

Janet_H, Mar 2023
Tea, a second-generation tour guide, was a font of information, not just on the Game of Thrones filming and locations, but also of Dubrovnik history, which added so much to the tour. The tour does have a lot of steep steps at the beginning of the tour, but there were breaks to rest, learn more, take pictures, etc., so I never felt over exerted, and was able to keep pace with our small group of four. I added on the Trsteno Arboretum, which was beautiful, but not sure it was worth the added price. I would definitely recommend the first part, though. Don't miss that.

Dear Janet, Thank you for your feedback. We are glad to hear you enjoyed the experience. Kind regards, Ivan Elite Travel
Fantastic!
Diego_G, Mar 2023

Daria_S, Mar 2023
I had a tour with Tea and let me tell you that this was the most interesting excursion I've ever been to so far. She turned me, a non true fan / cool to visit such a tour while in Dubrovnik type of a person, into a HUGE fan of the show :D Definitely is a must go tour, a must see experience and an absolut must visit place!
Response from Host, Mar 2023
Dear Daria, We are extremely happy to hear you enjoyed our tour so much and are glad you liked it! Thank you for you feedback! All the best, Ivan Elite Travel
Tour filled with laughter and fun!
xk2n5ddm45, Dec 2022
Time flies when you’re having fun and it was like that with Tea. Tea customised her Tour for us (1/2 watched GOT and 1/2 didn’t) and mixed it up with history of Dubrovnik, GOT on-screen and GOT behind-the-scenes, which we enjoyed thoroughly. We were let in on cinematic magic and more interestingly how an entire city came together on this best kept secret for so many seasons. She is why we will be rewatching GOT again. Her recommendations on F&B were also legit and she is a main contributor of why we enjoyed our stay in Dubrovnik!

Game of Thrones Walking Tour - Superb!!
Thomas_M, Oct 2022
This was such a great tour. I highly recommend it, especially as a way to see Old Town Dubrovnik. Even if you aren’t interested i’m GOT you will absolutely love this. Some of the scenery is just unbelievable. I ended up going back to the old town a couple more times following this tour as you see so many nice parts of the town. It also includes access to the castle walls which is an absolute must. There was only our small group plus one other person which meant we got lots of time to ask questions. The tour guide was incredibly knowledgable and enthusiastic which only helped to make the tour even more enjoyable. Absolutely superb!

Interesting but does not include tour of wall
Robyn_B, Oct 2022
Our group enjoyed this highly rated tour of Game of thrones sites but thought it included a guided tour on the wall. The tour ticket includes Dubrovnik wall access but not with the guide, only at your leisure after the tour. It is a long walk.

Matthew_S, Oct 2022
Out tour guide Tea was absolutely fab and so lovely. As we toured around the city of Dubrovnik she provided us not only game of thrones sites and facts but also informed us of the history of Dubrovnik itself. She was an extra within the game of thrones shows and it was fab to get the full insight of everything that happened during the filming process in Dubrovnik and how it has impacted the city in such a positive light. We highly recommended to anyone visiting Dubrovnik.
