There are few places in Europe where medieval walls, red-tiled roofs and marble streets meet the azure-colored sea. Dubrovnik is just that place.
Discover the main sights and hidden gems in the warren of streets in Stari Grad, or Old Town, with this educational and entertaining 1.5-hour guided tour. Stroll down the Stradun, the main limestone-clad pedestrian thoroughfare, and learn about the history of the city dating back to the 7th century.
