Dubrovnik has captivated kings and commoners alike for centuries. It’s the quintessential walled city of legend—proud, grand, and ancient. With its signature red and tan clay rooftops and massive stone ramparts framed by the dazzling blue Adriatic, our tour of Dubrovnik is the ultimate treat for visitors who want to see beyond the obvious and explore the architecture and history of this fabled city. Our discovery begins as we enter the Old Town through the Pile Gate. Along the way, we will visit St. Savior’s, a grandiose Franciscan and Dominican church. Next, we will admire one of the crown jewels of Dubrovnik, Knezev Dvor, the Rector’s Palace.
If you are fortunate enough to be in Dubrovnik during its celebrated Music Festival, standing in the palace’s central courtyard listening to a stunning classical concert under the stars is an unforgettable Dubrovnik experience! One of the real highlights of our walking tour is the famous Pharmacy at the Franciscan Monastery, which was built in 1317. Inside is a fascinating collection of decorated jars filled with ancient remedies; unique measurement devices, together with alembics and mortars. The Monastery, which also houses a museum with an excellent art collection, took a century to build and was almost completely destroyed in the tragic earthquake of 1667. George Bernard Shaw was so enchanted by this beautiful city, about which he said “those who seek paradise on Earth should come to Dubrovnik and see Dubrovnik.”

Only minutes south of majestic Dubrovnik is the ancient Roman settlement of Cavtat and the rolling arcadial Konavle valley-the very southernmost parts of Croatia before it meets the rugged coastline and mountainous terrain of Montenegro Combining Cavtat and Konavle makes for a wonderful day tour that takes you from a historic seaside village into the hidden interior of southernmost Croatia. Cavtat’s past,
present and future are very closely tied to Dubrovnik’s and this historically rich area is a delight – its Old Town is a warren of narrow streets and cobbled alleys and its serpentine waterfront promenade that frames a picturesque harbor is simply charming.
